    Jesus wants us to "do good" and "save lives", to show concern for the physical and spiritual needs of people. Let us pursue the good of others, and seize every opportunity to do so.

    Jesus pursued the good of other people. • He did it in his healings; he did it in his teachings. • In fact, Jesus lived his entire life for the good of other people. • We are all beneficiaries of that life - He died ultimately for our good. Today, we are called to live such a life. • As ...read more

    If we want to see revival in our area, we must, recognise our need for a touch from God, be willing to fight for Gods blessing, and receive His touch however it comes.

    The Touch of the Master Just like the word trinity, you won’t find the word revival in the Bible. Yet in both cases we know what they mean, and the Bible describes them over and over again. A revival is a great awakening of people to the very presence of God. Throughout history God has done ...read more

    Is your God big enough to do whatever He wants? For many of us who follow the Lord, we are not certain that God is big enough to do what is needed for us to succeed.

    “Then Job answered the LORD and said: ‘I know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can be thwarted. “Who is this that hides counsel without knowledge?” Therefore I have uttered what I did not understand, things too wonderful for me, which I did not know. “Hear, and I will ...read more
