With the European championship coming up next month, I was reminiscing over the last one which saw England lose to Italy. Before bed, I watched the highlights of the match. I already knew how the game would end. I knew which team had won. While I’m watching the highlights, however, I didn’t get discouraged, sad […]
In 1 Corinthians, Paul addresses the truths about life, death, and resurrection. He describes “the sting of death,” which is sin. It is an analogy that highlights the pain and finality that sin brings into our lives, much like the sting of a bee, painful and sometimes fatal. This sting is empowered by “the law,” […]

Are you battling sickness? God wants to give you healing. Are you struggling with a broken relationship? God wants to give you restoration and peace.

Today I watched golf, football and athletics. I was able to experience the difference it makes to have somebody in the stands rooting for you. When you know someone is watching you, you hear them calling your name, and you see their hands up in the air; it does something on the inside. It causes […]
We as Christians have the same calling, and that’s to be disciples. Jesus says, “Follow me,” and “make disciples”. He calls us to take the good news of God’s salvation to the ends of the earth. God’s great purpose, as the last book of the Bible indicates, is that people from every tribe, nation, people, […]
The harlot, Rahab took a great risk in hiding the Israelite spies. She did that because she recognized the Israelites could not have crossed the Red Sea or survived forty years in the wilderness on their own power. She saw that God was the source of their strength. Though she was an outsider from Jericho, […]
The Bible tells us that “in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”. God’s good purpose for all Christians is that we are “conformed to the likeness of his Son”. Christians are to reflect Jesus’ perfection both in their character and in […]
Today’s verse is a solemn reminder that our actions and attitudes can deeply affect our relationship with the Holy Spirit. If you are a parent, you understand the difference between being angry at your children and being grieved by your children. It is one thing when your kids make you mad; it is another thing […]
Do you worry? Some of us worry about paying the monthly rent or mortgage. Some of us worry about the choices our children are making. Others are anxious about the big decisions we must make about our future. With all the concerns in life, can Jesus be serious when he tells us not to worry? […]
God’s call to “not fear” is more than comforting advice; it’s a directive, grounded in His unchanging presence. It reminds us that no matter what we face, we are not alone. The Almighty is with us, and His presence assures us of security and peace. The Bible tells us of God’s personal support – to […]
As a child mum used to sing the song “Hold Fast For I am Coming”. Amid trials and tribulations, the words of our Lord in Revelation 3 resound with a clarion call, “I am coming soon”. This promise is a message of hope, reminding us that our struggles are temporal and that eternal glory awaits […]
Today’s verse is one of my all-time favourites. It begins with asking us to Trust in the Lord with all our hearts, which calls us to a faith that goes beyond the intellectual. It’s a deep-seated trust that permeates every aspect of our lives. This trust challenges us to relinquish our reliance on our own […]
While in Montreal Canada last week, I was amazed to see snow. I heard a very cold winter storm had come through, It was an amazing site. The snow blanketed the earth, and the frost painted the landscape, a clean look – a witness to the artistry of God, a testament to His power and […]
In life, we often encounter situations where we feel threatened or intimidated by others. These moments can stir up fear, leading us to forget the greater power that stands with us. However, today’s verse redirects our focus, reminding us that when God is our helper, the ability of people to truly harm us diminishes significantly. […]
Did you know true Confession is more than just admitting wrongdoing; it’s an acknowledgement of our need for God’s grace. When we confess our sins, we’re not informing God of something He doesn’t already know. Instead, we’re agreeing with Him about our sinfulness and expressing our desire for His forgiveness and cleansing. Scripture says, God’s […]
