Satan’s main attack through people against God’s will in their lives for Their good intentions, is that when God has put a request to us, whether

My darlings, all that God wants from us is obedience, and to honour Him through all His ways within our lives to be purposeful – not regretting – not blaming, and not resentful to anyone for past offences done to us in the way of hurting us, with false affliction and false testimonies of blaming and guilt- tripping us to believe what they are saying, or have spoken about us.

Love comes to those who have somewhere in the past, given out love or in other words, sown seeds of love. It happens that what we plant, we harvest – what we sow, we reap. So if you want hope – give it to someone else and when you least expect it, hope will be given back to you in full measure. Hosea 10:12 NKJV “Sow for yourselves righteousness; Reap in mercy; Break up your fallow ground, For it

To be blessed means to receive God’s favour upon any situations in your life. When we walk in harmony with what God wants for us, that is, according to His will, we shall see Him at work for us in the many different aspects of our lives. Matthew 5:8 NKJV “Blessed are the pure in heart, For they shall see God.” We must begin by purifying ourselves and our hearts of anything unclean, including and

God has a way of transforming us into the individuals that He planned for us before we were born. He knew us and set us apart before we were formed in our mother’s womb. Jeremiah 1:5 NKJV “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you to be a prophet to the nations.” God has a plan for our lives.

God says, yes indeed, all things are possible. We only have to have faith for this to be true. At times it seems as though there is nothing you can do to help a particular situation, and yet, there is the sense that once God gets involved, our entire lives can be transformed. God is indeed sovereign in our lives. He is the one who can make all your dreams come true. Turn your life over to Him

God is love. He shares His love with us every day. Many of the things we see around us are expressions of that love. We only need to look outside in nature to see that love unfolding every minute of every day. Every intricate detail has been taken care of, for the plants and the animals too. Each facet of nature has its own very important role. It plays its own part so that everything can come

His words are eternal. 1 Corinthians 1:9 NKJV “God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son,

In times of trouble, it is very easy to allow yourself to become acquainted with sin. Trouble and sin go hand in hand. It is at these times, that we can if we are not careful, succumb to temptation. We can however, beat temptation by claiming our God-given birthright, that we are washed by the blood of Jesus. It is written John 8:1-12 NKJV “But Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.

When you see the truth for what it is one comes to a certain understanding. The one thing which settles all disputes is the love of God. Arguments have a way of undermining the most beneficial of friendships. They can reap havoc in the most solid of marriages. When we see and understand this, we can do something about it. Put the love of God into any situation and see for yourself the magic begin

When He hears our cry, our Father in Heaven looks upon us with love, grace and mercy. In answer to our prayers, sometimes He takes delight in giving us immediate answers, and sometimes He makes us wait. When this happens, it is for good reason – only He knows what is going on behind the scenes. Most of the time though, what appears to be delays are only in fact His solutions that we have yet to

Regardless of our commitment to ‘the faith’, at times we need to take a look at how we conduct ourselves as Christians. There is a certain requirement as Christians, and that is to love. Sounds basic doesn’t it? Well, sometimes with all the trials in life, we allow ourselves to get bogged down with day to day living and responsibilities. If we are to become fully-fledged Christians, then we are

When you walk in trust, two things will happen. You will be led on an amazing journey filled with miracles and blessings, and others will see for themselves the kind of life you can have when you give yourself over to the Lord. God has great things planned for you and me. Things which we cannot even begin to imagine! If you’ve already been walking in the truth then you will know and understand

Love seems to be the topic on everyone’s lips. There are many stories, poems, movies and songs written about love. It is what each and every heart desires. When we give love, we are sowing a seed, which germinates and eventually blossoms and returns to us fulfilled. God’s word is love. His word never returns back to us void, which means that with every promise, he will personally see to it that

Are you ready to let God’s word transform your life? Well then, read on and let the transformation begin! When you speak God’s word about something, you automatically begin to unleash His glorious power into whatever it is you are trying to achieve. The wings of prayer deliver the message into the Heavens and then Father God sets His plans in motion. To be able to carry out such great feats of

Most of us would like a life of peace and tranquillity, although it seems at times, that the harder we strive for it, the more we are faced with situations that take away the very thing we want – and that is peace! Jesus wants us to be peaceful and contented in all situations without letting worry or fear affect our ability to stay calm in the midst of the storms. In the Bible, it tells of an

This is what faith is all about. It is about giving over the reins to Jesus and allowing Him to rule over your life and heart. When we willingly and actively entrust our plans and situations to Him we will see much happening within our lives that we could not possibly achieve without Him. We all like to think and believe that we are in control of what we do with our lives, and to some extent,

One day, you will get up in the morning to discover that everything in your life has come together to form a beautiful and finished tapestry. This is the Lord’s perfection at work for you in your life. It comes as a result of knowing Him intimately, and from living according to His perfect will for you. This is when the enjoyment of the fruits of your labours begins, and is a time that many

When faced with life’s many challenges, it is wise to commit your future into the hands of the Almighty. As you go forth into your day, it is good practice to sit quietly with the Lord just being there in His presence. This will enable you to fill yourself with God’s strength and vigour, thus supplying you with all the necessary ingredients you may need for that particular day. It is very

Timing is everything! That is, God’s timing of course. Sometimes, things can get a bit rocky on the path of righteousness, and we can get quite a bit impatient whilst we wait for our hopes and plans to come to fruition. It’s only natural as human beings to desire that which we believe will bring us joy and success, and of course we want it right now! When we surrender all of our hopes and wishes

When the world is telling you that you can’t have this dream, or that dream here’s what you should do. Be happy and praise the Lord your God, because He is about to give you your heart’s desires. Yes that’s right! This is not a misprint! When we rejoice and give praise to the Lord, He will move mountains for us! You see, God in His mercy wants His children to be strong in their faith, and to

When praying in the mighty name of Jesus, we must always ask for the forgiveness of our sins. This opens the door to many opportunities for us to come to terms with whatever is going on in our lives. It gives us the opportunity to understand that many of our difficulties have come upon us as a result of sin. Be that as it may, the Lord is always willing to forgive us and wipe the slate clean.

The time will come in your Christian walk that you will be called upon to step out in faith and really take a stand believing for a miracle. It might be that you have a troubled marriage, or failing career, lack of financial resources, or perhaps difficulty falling pregnant or even some serious health issue, and you will be required to stand firm in your faith, believing God for His mercy and

In times such as these, one must rekindle in their hearts and minds, a passion for overcoming the burdens of living. Trials and tribulations are as natural as the day turning to night. It is said that in this life there will be many difficulties and that we must be of good cheer, giving thanks in all that we do, and for all that we have. With this frame of mind, we will be able to endure much

We are coming into a time beyond all human history that we have never seen before on our planet. There is much mystery surrounding Biblical Prophecy of the so called End Times, and much propaganda too. If we are to live joyous lives amidst all the chaos, then we must rise above all the angst that is being created by television and the media. Everywhere we turn, we see broadcasts of this or that

Some people believe that Heaven is our reward for our good behaviour on Earth. Anyone who knows anything about Christianity wants to 'go to Heaven' when their lives on Earth are complete. There have been many accounts of what Heaven is like, and let's face it; wouldn't we all love to know? A select few have had what is known as "Near Death Experiences' and have given very detailed descriptions

God's love is eternal. We see God's love for us every day, with each sunrise, with the flowers in bloom, and in the very air that we breathe. With God's love you can move mountains! In the Bible, it says that we can speak to that mountain in our life and it will move out of our way!

Please note, this next insight is written as though Jesus himself is talking to you. This is how I received the text, as follows: The next topic for discussion is all about 'who you are in Christ.' Many people fail to realise that it is I who lives in you, and therefore it is I that must rule in your hearts at all times. Galations 2:20 says "so that it is no longer I who live, but it is Christ

Though many in life may not come to understand the full meaning of what it is to be led by Jesus, nonetheless His love is available for all.

Words are like arrows, they can sting like a bee, or they can heal rifts between nations. Jealousy can kill. It is that simple. It has the power to destruct even the most perfect relationship.
