     | 10,032 views

    We too may doubt our own abilities and potential. But let us never doubt what God can do with us when we trust and obey Him. We can fight and face any fear when we know the Lord is with us.

    Opening illustration: A mother asked her 5-year-old son to go to the pantry to get her a can of tomato soup. But he refused and protested, “Its dark in there.” Mom assured Johnny, “it’s okay. Don’t be afraid. Jesus is in there.” So Johnny opened the door slowly and seeing that it was dark, shouted, ...read more

    Its not by our own doing, but the power we receive through the gift Jesus Christ that enables us to do far more than we could ever see ourselves capable of. If God be your partner, Make Your Plans LARGE!! Hallelujah, Glory to God forever!!

    “You can do it,” No I Can’t, YES YOU CAN!! How many of us ever live our lives to full potential, how many even step out of our comfort zone once in a while. So many people in general and not just Christians never think outside the box, They get cozy in life with their daily and weekly routines, ...read more

    God drew near. In the incarnation the King left His throne to draw near to His people. What does this say about Who God is?

And, I’m very happy to be back with you, to be back in the community where I belong, to be back with my people, the church and the mission that I love. You know, there's nothing ...read more

    But then the power of the resurrection touched them. And the disciples went from a lack of trust to becoming trusting of God for all things. They went from trying to save their life to giving it away. They went from having little faith to believing all th

     | 3,728 views

    The question which the Philippian jailer asked Paul and Silas 2,000 years ago is still relevant today and we have to encourage people to ask it, and no matter how 'diverse' or 'multi-cultural' our society is, there is only one correct answer to it.

    When we try to live without consulting God’s word, It’s a deliberate, voluntary ignorance. But this ignorance won’t stop us from suffering the consequences for being stupid. The wisdom we need is available.It’s about letting God’s word saturate our spirit.

    There is a common desire inside everyone to want to succeed • Because we measure our worth on the basis of how successful we are. • How we measure that success is often based on a worldly standard rather than a godly standard. • Success by the world’s standard often means ...read more
