    Even though they are aware of their abilities, some people believe they are entitled to make use of them however they see fit. When we use our abilities, how does it glorify God?

    Peter writes that everyone has some abilities. He also states that we are to use what God gave us to reach the world, not for our pleasure but for serving and edifying God. Paul mentions various gifts or abilities. • 1 Corinthians 12:8-11, For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to ...read more

    From childhood to old age, God is always there to support us. God’s work in our lives ought to be a living testimony, so we should as such.

    The psalmist was old, and he considered his life to be as a declaration of all that God had accomplished for him (Psalm 71:9 & 18). Recalling God’s lifetime of blessings will assist us with seeing the consistency of His effortlessness consistently, to confide in Him for the future, and to ...read more

    Standing In The Gap

    We are living in a period of extraordinary assaults by Satan. It is critical that we maintain prayers for our leaders, and it is fundamental for the leaders to take accountability to assist them with keeping their spiritual and moral integrity.

    In Chapter 22, we learn why judgment would come to Jerusalem (22:2-16), how it would be approached (22· 17-22), and who would be affected by it (22:23-31). Those actions and sins that occurred back then seem very similar to what is happening in society today (James 3:1). We are living in a ...read more

    We have all faced situations where we wondered if there was a way out of our problems.

    When things got difficult and discouraging, the Israelites began to whine, murmur, and complain. Unfortunately, Christians of today act the same way.
