    As we enter a New Year, we never know what things will be like during the next 365 days. Some go to fortunetellers at this time of the year hoping to find out what the future holds for them.

    But God had a purpose in us not knowing everything. Illus: A man was wandering around a fairground and he happened to see a fortuneteller's tent. Thinking it would be good for a laugh, he went inside and sat down. "Ahh....." said the woman, as she gazed into her crystal ball. ...read more

    Anxiety seems to be a problem today for both the saved and the unsaved.

    For our meditation I wish to focus on the word ‘satisfy’. If we look around us, there are many discontented people who are not satisfied with what they have.

For you will enjoy the fullness of my salvation!” (TPT) In continuation with our study on Psalm 91, let us turn our attention to verse 16. This is the Lord’s promise to the one who makes the Lord his refuge, ...read more

    Most people will agree in principle that the one who gives is more blessed than the one who receives. But they still struggle with giving – often because they can’t give. They have too many bills and are struggling to get by.

    Satisfied. Last Sunday I began a series of messages called “Satisfied.” that is about money – except it’s not really about money. It’s about life. In that message I pointed out three lies that sounded like truths and three truths that sounded like lies. Three lies The ...read more

    Whatever you do in excess becomes an abuse, it is good to eat to keep healthy, but too much of food can pose danger to the body.

    16 If you find honey, eat just enough— too much of it, and you will vomit. 27 It is not good to eat too much honey, nor is it honorable to search out matters that are too deep. 28 Like a city whose walls are broken through is a person who lacks self-control.

    The eye is the channel that communicate ideas ( either good or bad) to the rest of your body. The rest of your body or the remaining four senses takes action according to what your eye sees.

    We are told that believers should be content where they are and abide with God. We are to Bud, Bloom, Blossom and be Blissful wherever we are. It takes time for us to get to where God wants us to be.

We are to wait for Him while He prepares us to be in the condition that we are to be in. In this ...read more
