    David wants to build God a house, and God in turn reveals that He wants to build David a house, one that is eternal. God has in mind the salvation of the world. He wants to dwell in the hearts of every believer.

    Last week we saw how David moved the Ark of the Lord back to Jerusalem. • He was careless at the first round, but did it right the second time. He heeded God’s Word and followed God’s way. • We honour God’s presence with reverence and a holy fear. We COME CLEAN with ...read more

    The world bases our worth off its value system. It depends on what we want in a career, relationships, etc. . But our worth can be found as treasures of God.

    Roxycraft.com I put the emphasis on “what you want” for a reason. Most of us have no clue of what we want. You need to ask yourself that question over and over again until something rings true.

Church planters basically do the same thing. They have to plant the seed (Gospel), cultivate the seed, fertilize the ...read more

    We often limit our expectation of God by the excuses we give Him to bless us. But God wants us to expect more from Him than what we can perform or deserve.

    Unbelievable pain, incredible hurt. Why God? Why? Answers don’t come easily; sometimes they never come. But God wants us to know HIM and our pain drives us to him.

    TAKE IT BACK! One of my all-time favorite movies is Raiders of the Lost Ark, the first film in the Indiana Jones trilogy. I think it’s Steven Spielberg’s greatest work.

    Giving In The New Testament

    Contributed by Jeff Van Wyk on Jul 6, 2013
     | 3,484 views

    The purpose of giving was a matter of the heart and God wanted His people to give out of their love for Him. It did matter what percentage was given to God or how much was left over after giving to Him.

    Giving In The New Testament Luke 12:21 – “So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God." We have just completed a study of giving in the Old Testament. It may seem a bit unfair when we read about all the giving that was required of the Israelites. Why did God ...read more

    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.

    If we are faithful in what God has called us to do, we will be brought up (budding). God has a plan, and He is preparing for us to bloom. God brings us through trials in order for us to blossom. 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
