Knowing God’s Will For You
Psalm 143:10 (KJV) Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness. The psalmist was a man who understood the benefits of knowing the “will of God.” He sought God with everything in him. The quest of his life was to know the “ways of God.” What we spend our time and energy on demonstrates where our values are and what our passion is. So to be frank, no…
Allow God to direct your steps
Proverbs 16:9 (KJV) A man’s heart deviseth his way: but the Lord directeth his steps. Planning is essential in life. It is a demonstration of one’s commitment to pursuing his or her life dreams. It enhances the chances of opportunity realization. By planning, we can minimize losses and ensure productivity. Planning is a vital key to achieving life’s goals, therefore planning is important. The Bible encourages us to plan but we are admonished to plan with divine help. To plan with…
The Power of Joy
Philippians 4:4 (KJV) Rejoice in the Lord always: and again, I say, Rejoice. Paul was a man filled with the Holy Spirit and he experienced such life-threatening circumstances and situations that often when you want to consider someone whose life epitomizes Grace and at the same time suffering, you think of Paul the Apostle. He understood by the inspiration of God the place of “Joy and Rejoicing” in handling the challenges of life. This year is indeed good, however, let…

Let your Words be Seasoned with Grace!
Proverbs 12:25 King James Version (KJV) Heaviness in the heart of man maketh it stoop: but a good word maketh it glad. The power of words is not a stretch. It is the catalyst of emotional response and its impacts on the mental processes of an individual. Therefore, the Bible speaks about the values of choice words and the dangers surrounding one’s life with negative words. Anxiety, which is the fear of what the future holds, especially in the light of…
God choose you; to prosper your body, mind, & soul.
Matthew 12:18 (KJV) Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall shew judgment to the Gentiles. You are the chosen one of God. His choice of you was before you were conceived in your mother’s womb. He knew you before anything about you came to be, Psalm 139 vs.12 – 17. It is, therefore, imperative that as you look at yourself, you must…

God has better plans for you.
Jeremiah 29:11 (KJV) For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. When we read the Bible without historical context, we often don’t appreciate the relevance and importance of the text. Jeremiah’s prophetic ministry covered from the siege of Jerusalem to its fall and captivity. So as of the time this chapter is being written, the fall and captivity has taken place. The…
Real Peace is GOD’S Peace!
Isaiah 26:3 (KJV) Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee. This is one of my favorite scripture passage. It speaks of God’s goodness and grace towards His children and presents such a wonderful promise that we all desires which is PEACE OF MIND.

Peace: Our Security!
Philippians 4:7 (KJV) And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. The context of the above scripture underscores the importance of Prayers of Thanksgiving as well as the need for us to be anxious of NOTHING. It becomes imperative that we see the connection between prayer, thankfulness and peace. Peace which is not the absence of trouble but the contentment of the soul and spirit in the mist of challenges…
Why God Inspired THE BIBLE?
2 Timothy 3:16-17 King James Version (KJV) 16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
