A Heart Like Abraham's




Lately, as I have been reading about the journey of Father Abraham, I cannot help but wonder what kind of heart he had.

Imagine a man who woke up one day and received a simple yet life-altering instruction from God: "Leave your father's house." And he did. Scripture records no hesitation, no negotiation, and no indication that he ever returned to the life he left behind. He simply obeyed.

Abraham was not only a man of vision; he was a man of faith. He was willing to build for a future he would never fully see. He obeyed God's instructions, followed through with unwavering trust, and became a recipient of divine promises and covenants that would shape generations.

Even today, we continue to see the evidence of one man's walk with God.

«"I will make you a great nation;
I will bless you
And make your name great;
And you shall be a blessing."
 Genesis 12:2»
As I reflected on Abraham's life, a thought settled deeply in my heart:

The next move of God that you desire to see may be hidden within an instruction you have neglected.

God desires to work in us and walk with us, but He will not force His will upon us. Partnership with God begins with agreement. To agree with Him is to adopt a posture of "yes"—a willingness to obey every instruction, even when the outcome is not yet visible.

It means being willing to place the seed in the ground before seeing the harvest. It means building for a future you may never witness in your lifetime, yet remaining fully convinced that what God has spoken, He is faithful to accomplish.

Abraham lived with that conviction. He trusted God beyond what he could see, and his obedience became the foundation for generations to come.

Today, I encourage you to search your heart and ask the Lord to give you a heart like Abraham's—a heart that trusts completely, obeys willingly, and remains steadfast even when the promise seems far away.

May we become people who say "yes" to God, knowing that every instruction carries within it the potential for His divine purpose to unfold.

The Devil Wants a Harvest in You

These words came to my mind while I listened to a message, and they fit perfectly into the recent study I’ve been doing. It’s very easy to point out the failures of Adam, Eve, Ananias and Sapphira, and Judas Iscariot, but we never look inward to confront the part of us that reflects the brokenness we see in them.

What if, just like Peter when the devil demanded to sift him, the Lord said, “But I am praying for you”? Those words remind us that Satan constantly seeks to corrupt the seeds inside us and reproduce his agenda through us.

He wants us to become carriers of his agenda, but he never shows up with a label. Subtly, he plants seeds in our hearts and watches them yield an unlimited harvest.

It’s easy to read these words and think, “Surely this isn’t for me.” But what if, to Ananias and Sapphira, it wasn’t “a sin,” it was just “my property”? Yes, Satan plants seeds of deception in our hearts, but he also finds the loophole: the soil that can hold the seeds he wants to sow.

Our constant posture shouldn’t be defense, but surrender. Surrender ourselves to the workings of the Lord, because most times we don’t even realize that this, in itself, is sin against God.

God wants to birth His agenda through us, and so the enemy seeks to birth his agenda in us.  

Would you let him find his way?  

Would you consciously ask the Lord to search your heart, even in the places where you’ve built a wall? Break it open and let Him give you His life.

Because we cannot be ignorant of the devices of the crafty...  (2 Cor 2:11 - so that we would not be outwitted by Satan; for we are not ignorant of his designs.)

Have We Neglected the House of God?

Nehemiah 10:39 says:

"For the children of Israel and the children of Levi shall bring the offering of the grain, of the new wine and the oil, to the storerooms where the articles of the sanctuary are, where the priests who minister and the gatekeepers and the singers are; and we will not neglect the house of our God."

As I read this passage in Nehemiah, one statement struck me deeply: "We will not neglect the house of our God."

I began to ponder what it truly means to neglect the house of God. Is there a posture I can take that signals to heaven that I do not regard God? Could there be attitudes, actions, or patterns of speech that reveal a lack of honor for His dwelling place?

As I reflected further, I realized that we are no longer in the days when God primarily dwelt in physical temples made by human hands. Through Christ Jesus, God now resides in us.

The Apostle Paul reminds us in 1 Corinthians 3:16:

"Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?"

If we are now God's temple, then the question becomes: How do we honor this temple He has given us?

Honoring God's Temple

Honoring the temple begins with caring for it both physically and spiritually.

When we study the book of Exodus, we see the detailed instructions God gave Moses concerning how Aaron and the priests were to approach His presence. There were protocols regarding cleanliness, preparation, clothing, and reverence. These instructions reveal a principle: God desires that His people approach Him with honor and respect.

This means that our bodies matter to God. It is not only our spirits that we present before Him; we also present our bodies. We should therefore care for ourselves, maintain cleanliness, rest adequately, eat properly, and steward our health wisely.

The Danger of Defiling the Temple

Scripture warns us against joining what belongs to God with what is contrary to His will. Sexual intimacy was designed by God to be expressed within the covenant of marriage. Outside of God's design, it often leaves emotional, spiritual, and even psychological wounds.

Many people have experienced significant changes in their lives following ungodly relationships or sexual encounters. Brokenness, confusion, and spiritual oppression can often be traced back to violations of God's divine order.

God's instructions are never meant to restrict us but to protect the precious treasure He has placed within us.

Protecting the Good God Placed Within You

When God created man and woman, He declared His creation "good." Yet He did not stop there. He blessed them and commanded them:

"Be fruitful, multiply, and replenish the earth."

This reveals God's intention for humanity—to multiply His goodness throughout the earth.

The enemy understands this, which is why he constantly seeks to attack the good that God has deposited within every believer. His objective is to corrupt, weaken, or destroy the potential God has placed inside us.

Neglecting the temple of God is therefore more than simply failing to attend a church building. It can be any posture of disobedience, ignorance, or carelessness that damages the work of God within us and hinders the expression of His goodness through our lives.

Living as Carriers of God's Presence

Everything God created has protocols that govern how it relates to Him. Scripture tells us that God feeds the birds of the air. If God makes provision for the birds, how much more does He care for those He has chosen to dwell within?

We are not merely people trying to survive after the fall of man. We are living temples of the Holy Spirit.

Because of this, we should carry ourselves in a way that allows the Holy Spirit to reveal Himself through us. We must steward our lives well physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

Take care of yourself. Bathe regularly. Eat well. Rest adequately. Stay healthy. Grow spiritually. Spend time in prayer and in God's Word. Follow God's protocols and depend on His grace to help you walk in obedience.

When we do this, we demonstrate that we have not neglected the house of God, for we recognize that we ourselves are His dwelling place.

Scriptures for Meditation


1 Corinthians 3:16
"Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?"

The Enemy Wants Your Mind


Recently, I began a study that started with a simple thought about Judas Iscariot—the most renowned betrayer of all time. As I read more about him, I found myself wondering: Did Judas ever truly accept the message of redemption, despite being so close to the Master?

Why did he choose his own way despite his proximity to the Truth? He constantly heard and received the words that flowed from the heart of the Messiah, yet he still turned away.

This led me to a sobering realization: we can submit our bodies, our actions, and even our service to God, yet never fully surrender our minds. That is why Scripture calls us to the renewing of our minds. Without a surrendered mind, transformation cannot take place.

The mind is exactly what Satan is after. He seeks to flood our thoughts with his ideas, planting seeds that he carefully cultivates until they produce fruit contrary to the will of God.

This is the same strategy the enemy used with Ananias and Sapphira. Peter's question to Ananias reveals the true battleground:

"Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit?" (Acts 5:3)

Satan wants to fill our hearts and minds with ideas of deception, compromise, and double standards. He whispers, "You can have it both ways." He seeks to lure us into complacency and make our hearts fertile ground for his agenda.

Acts 5:3 (God's Word Translation):

"Peter asked, 'Ananias, why did you let Satan fill you with the idea that you could deceive the Holy Spirit? You've held back some of the money you received for the land.'"

God does not merely want us to recognize Satan's tactics; He wants us to develop a counter-strategy. We must combat the enemy through a continual posture of surrender and declarations rooted in God's truth.

Declare:

- Satan, you will not fill my mind with your ideas.
- You will not fill my heart with your desires.
- You will not fill my heart with your thoughts.
- My heart is submitted to the will of Christ.
- I will do the will of Christ.
- Righteousness is the path I have chosen.
- I refuse you.
- I rebuke you.
- I silence your voice.

Do not hide Satan's deception behind your weaknesses. Expose it, confront it, and choose God's reality over the enemy's lies.

A moment in time



The disciples were called Christians because they lived and looked like Christ. Oftentimes, we hold on to the notion that we are Jesus' baby,  both male and female, but we fail to realize that the disciples were followers of Christ not only in name but also in speech and lifestyle.

Therefore, the message, "Be imitators of Christ," is not written or preached simply because it sounds good or pleasant to hear. It is a daily call to be conscious of our speech, actions, and lifestyle so that whatever we do on earth points people back to Christ.

Scripture says:

Luke 4:5 – "Then the devil, taking Him up on a high mountain, showed Him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time."

In this passage, we see the vision encounter Jesus had with Satan, where he was shown all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. In other words, Satan presented before Him everything the world had to offer and attempted to entice Him with authority over it all.

This was a temptation with the capacity to alter the entire narrative of the Gospel if Jesus had fallen.I can almost imagine Jesus thinking, "My Father is the Creator of all these kingdoms, I am the word, I govern the affairs of men. Who are you to offer Me what already belongs to Me? I created it all." It's tricky how Satan still uses this foxish character today, what we think is just one off, changes the trangentry of a person's life.

A moment in time
A moment in time can be that opportunity that looks attractive because you think no one will ever know if you steal the money. It can be the temptation to commit adultery or engage in sexual immorality. A moment in time can be that decision you know God is not in, yet you expect Him to overlook it and put his blessing in it.

It can be the hardness of heart that blinds you to the efforts of a spouse who is genuinely trying to make the marriage work. A moment in time has the power either to align us with God's will or to derail us from it.

The reality is that in such moments, we are always presented with choices—the way of life or the way of destruction.

A moment in time can also be reflected in how you manage the resources God has placed in your hands. Can God trust you with greater financial resources, or would the riches of this world pull your heart away from Him?

It takes nothing for God to change the story of a person's life in a moment. However, when you are brought to the table of decision in that moment, make sure you choose life.

The moments that define destiny are often brief, but their consequences can last a lifetime. Therefore, remain conscious, remain watchful, and remain committed to living a life that reflects Christ in every decision you make.

Have You Lost the Consciousness of What You Have?


What do you have?

What was it that redemption offered you when you said "yes" to Jesus?

Do you believe that Jesus gave you so much on the day you accepted Him, or has the reality of what He gave you been gradually stolen by hell's strategic agenda?

It is very easy to become conscious of our physical privileges, relationships, and opportunities that come through our association with certain people. However, it takes intentional training and spiritual growth to walk out of the limitations of the flesh and come to a place where we are conscious of heaven's plans, agenda, and resources—so much so that every aspect of our lives reflects them.

Last week, I walked out of what seemed like another failed interview—not because I failed, but because it appeared to offer no tangible benefit. Yet, I knew the Lord had spoken a word concerning His blessings over my life this year. However, my reality seemed to be projecting the opposite of what God had said.

It is often easier to focus on our pain than on God's promise of healing.

It is easier to declare our weaknesses than to affirm God's strength at work within us.

It is easier to seek help from man than to wait on God's plan and divine agenda.

But God is reminding us today that the very day we said "yes" to Him, we became His responsibility.

Acts 3:6 (God's Word Translation)

"However, Peter said to him, 'I don't have any money, but I'll give you what I do have. Through the power of Jesus Christ from Nazareth, walk!'"

The apostles could only give out Jesus because they did not treat Him as a religious experience locked away in the Upper Room. He had become an inseparable part of their daily journey and reality.

So today, instead of counting the things we do not have, let us choose to focus on what redemption has already paid for. Redemption paid for everything we need for life and godliness.

Walk in the consciousness of what Christ has made available to you.

War with the prophetic word


It's been a prophetic week for me, and I would love to share this insight with you.

You see, it is not enough to receive a prophetic word or a blessing; you must be able to hold God to His Word. How do you do that? By taking that word back to God in prayer and praying it through with hope and faith until there is manifestation.

Prophetic words are the mind of God spoken to bring hope and keep you steadfast in your faith journey. However, to see the manifestation of prophecy, you must put your faith in place. Scripture says, "Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."

You must set practical strategies that demonstrate your faith. A prophetic word will remain only a prophecy if you do not align your prayers, actions, and posture with it. Scripture says, "Do you see a man diligent in his work?" Diligence is required for manifestation.

You must be diligent in searching the Scriptures for words that align with the prophetic word you have received and consistently present them before God in prayer. That is how you war with a prophetic word.

Has God given you a word? Have you received a prophecy? That is wonderful and powerful. Now it is time to do the work:pray, believe, align, and persevere until there is manifestation.

Spirit-Enabled Times



We are living in a time when many things have moved away from established standards and godly norms. Morality is no longer guided by absolute truth; instead, people pursue whatever brings them satisfaction and personal pleasure. It was into a similarly uncertain world that Jesus spoke to His disciples about His departure. Yet, He did not leave them without hope—He promised to send the Holy Spirit.

The very first thing the Spirit did was enable them.

Enablement is one of the greatest gifts the Holy Spirit offers believers.

Despite it being a new month and a new week, I began this season feeling weary and tired—not emotionally, but physically. My body felt drained and overworked, even though I had done very little. 

As the day progressed, it became a concern to me. Why do I feel so exhausted?

So I began declaring God's Word over myself: I am strengthened by the Lord.

That is what God has offered us—enablement.

Therefore, I boldly declare that I can do all things, even when my circumstances suggest otherwise, because it is Christ who strengthens me. He enables us to have difficult conversations, to walk away from relationships that are not God-centered, to say no to opportunities that seem attractive but are not His will, and to choose the desires of the Spirit over the desires of the flesh.

God is our Enabler.

This season, the Lord desires to enable us to walk in alignment with His will. He understands that the devices of the crafty often come disguised as pleasure and self-gratification. The world teaches that the highest form of satisfaction is doing whatever feels good to you. Yet many times, our way is not God's way.

God is saying:

- Introduce Spirit-enabled conversations.

- Build Spirit-enabled marriages.

- Lead Spirit-enabled businesses.

- Influence Spirit-enabled organizations.

- Raise Spirit-enabled nations.

Acts 2:4 (GNT)

"They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to talk in other languages, as the Spirit enabled them to speak."

The Spirit's enablement is not about entering trances or creating dramatic displays. It is about God impressing His mind upon our minds and giving us the grace to speak and act according to His will. His thoughts become our thoughts through the transforming work of the Holy Spirit.

Acts 2:18

"In those days I will pour out my Spirit on my servants, both men and women, and they will speak what God has revealed."

Today, go forth in the strength of Elohim.

Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord




There is trouble on every side, and sometimes you feel like running away and hiding. There's this song I love that says:

"There's trouble on every side, so I guess you want to run and hide. Your enemy is out for you, and you don't know why."

As a teenager, I sang those lyrics because they sounded nice. However, as I grew older, I began to understand them better. There are moments in life when the weight of challenges and troubles makes you want to run and hide. But how long can you keep running? The challenges of life do not operate on a timetable. If you run today, when will you return and run again?

When we look at the story of the Isrealites, we realise that they had been in bondage in Egypt for 430 years, waiting for deliverance. Then God brought as a deliverer and Moses came with God's message, many of them struggled to believe. They had become so accustomed to slavery that freedom seemed impossible. Looking at the Egyptians, they could not imagine a way of escape. Bondage had become their normal.

Yet God sent Moses with a word of hope and a message of God for Pharaoh. When they finally left and got to the red sea there were unable to cross because it was a sea and they were men not fishes, forgetting that God who had asked them to go through that route is willing to create a road and they said, you should have left as slaves, Moses response was thus.

Exodus 14:13-"And Moses said to the people, 'Do not be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, which He will accomplish for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall see again no more forever

The Egyptian can be your troubled marriage.
 It can be your child.
It can be that job your are seeking.
it can be the breakthrough.
It can be any set back you are facing now.
But beloved I want to let you know that there is nothing too hard for God to do, tarry in prayer, do not back down for the Egyptians you see today you shall see them no more.
Do not normalise what God has paid the price for, rise up and take that posture of Surrender and ask him for a change, standing on his word.

Choosing life Again


The blessings of the Lord are without repentance. When God wanted to establish a covenant of blessing, He swore by Himself because there was no one greater by whom He could swear. This shows that our blessings are rooted in God’s covenant and His unfailing promise.

Hebrews 6:13–15 says:

“For when God made a promise to Abraham, because He could swear by no one greater, He swore by Himself, saying, ‘Surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply you.’ And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.”

There are protocols to walking in the blessing of God. What God blesses is the work of your hands, therefore you must not remain idle while seeking His blessing. Get busy doing the right and appropriate things according to His will.

Many times, we become bound by the enemy because of ignorance concerning the covenant God made with our fathers. As a result, many believers live limited lives. Often, we choose the easy way of doing things, believing that if God is involved, everything should come easily without process, discipline, endurance, or obedience.

Because of ignorance, many make decisions that lead them into bondage, seeking after blessings that the enemy offers, blessings that ultimately lead to destruction and death. The broad way may appear attractive and easy, but destruction is at the end of it.

The Lord is once again calling us to choose life. Narrow is the way that leads to life, peace, and true fulfillment. Jesus said, “My peace I give unto you, not as the world gives.” which means there is a kind of peace tgat the world gives, but He said His peace surpasses all understanding and cannot be found in the temporary pleasures or shortcuts of the world.

Today, I want to remind you to choose life.
Choose obedience.
Choose truth.
Choose diligence.
Choose the narrow path that leads to everlasting life.

"Complete People Need God Too"


The illusion the enemy creates is that only broken people need Jesus.

“Why do I need God if I already have everything I need? I have a great job, my business is doing well, and everything seems to fit perfectly into the picture of a good life.”

Over and over again, the enemy writes letters of deception to our hearts, making us believe that God is only necessary when we have visible needs. But what if God is more than just the needs He meets?

He is not just a Provider.
He is not just a Protector.

God is the whole puzzle. He is the King over it all, orchestrating the entire game. Even the enemy, who thinks he is in control, is still under God’s authority.

Sometimes, because things work out for us, we place God aside. We seek protection only in danger, call on Him only in crisis, and move on once life feels stable again.

But if we are truly complete, why do we keep searching for the next thing?
The next craving.
The next satisfaction.
The next achievement.

Maybe it is not marriage, success, money, or status that completes us. Maybe there is a deeper longing within us — a hunger only the Creator can satisfy. The One who formed us understands the emptiness we try to fill.

Can the created truly say to its Creator, “I have no need of You,” simply because life feels okay for a moment?

And for those who think they do not need God, that is often the greatest proof that they do.

God still says, “I know you need Me.”
He says: 
Revelation 3:17 (ESV)
“For you say, I am rich, I have prospered, and I need nothing, not realizing that you are wretched, pitiable, poor, blind, and naked.”

The fact that you think you don’t need Him may be the very reason you need Him most.

When we define completeness through the lens of worldly standards and temporary fulfillment, we begin to ask, “Who is this God?”

But God has always answered humanity’s questions with an invitation:

“Come.”

Come all.
No restrictions.
No qualifications.

Every time God calls, His invitation is for everyone even those who do not yet understand what the invitation truly means.

The Man called Jesus of Nazareth


What do you define purity to be?

How can one truly be declared holy except he has encountered and lived for the Man called Jesus?

The man Jesus is purity personified. As I studied the blood and the process of atonement in the Old Testament, I am amazed at how important holiness is to God. How He gave Moses detailed instructions on how Aaron was to come before Him and make atonement on the mercy seat. As I read, the only words that rise from my lips are: What manner of God are You, O Lord?

Yet even those processes of atonement cannot be compared to the perfect, complete, and once and for all atonement that the blood of Jesus accomplished on the cross.

1 Peter 1: 19 (but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect).

Have you met the Man Jesus?

The One who was selfless and willingly gave His life for you and me.

Have you met the Man Jesus, the One who, in pain, walked the journey to Golgotha to prove His love for humanity and give us freedom from the sentence that came through the fall of man?

There is no greater life than a life lived in the knowledge of Jesus of Nazareth. Behold, He comes with His reward in His hand, and He will give unto those who diligently seek Him.

Beloved, The seek ye command is not for one but for all so today “Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness.”

I want to remind you that Jesus is knocking at the door of your heart. His desire is to come into every molecule of your daily life and transform it, so today make a conscious effort towards seeking Him.

God bless you, and have a wonderful day.

We Can All Be Gehazi

Many times, I have heard the story of Naaman preached. Usually, it centers on how God works in mysterious ways, on Elisha's status as a powerful prophet in his time, on Gehazi’s greed, and on Naaman’s initial disobedience in heeding the prophet’s instructions. But as I studied this passage with the help of the Holy Spirit, I began to think about the potential prophet who lost his position because he chose to fulfill the desires of the flesh.

I began to read this scripture through the eyes of a man who introduced doom into his generation. It is easy to place all the blame on Gehazi and say, “You brought a curse upon your bloodline because you failed to control your fleshly desires.” But Gehazi was not an unbeliever. He was a servant who consistently walked under the tutelage of Elisha, the man who inherited a double portion of the anointing.

Despite being so close to such great power and witnessing the manifestation of God’s mighty works daily, Gehazi still had not subdued the desires of the flesh. Greed still lingered within him, searching for an open door—not just for Gehazi himself, but for his generation.

The enemy had Gehazi’s generation in mind all along, and it fed on the parts of him that had not yet been yielded to God. The hidden places within him had not been brought fully into the light. Those areas we often refuse to surrender while saying, “Lord, I am struggling. Can You help me?”

“Lord, I cannot control my emotions—this anger, envy, or jealousy.”

We may consistently sit under God’s power and even display that power, but if we have not truly yielded ourselves to Him, we can eventually become like Gehazi—endangering not only ourselves, but also the generations connected to us by blood.

God desires for us to continually experience the supernatural and the wonders of His power. But beyond miracles, we should also ask the Lord for the miracle of being broken open before Him—that He would search out every part of us that is not yielded to His way and remove it from us.

I desire to witness mighty miracles from God each day, but today my prayer is this: Lord, search out the parts of me that do not align with Your way, and pull them out until I become a reflection of the Way, the Truth, and the Life.

Faith and work



It is not enough to hear the Word; you must put it to work. Simply hearing the Word does not make manifestation automatic. The truth is that the Word has already left God’s mouth, but for there to be manifestation, you must align yourself with it. Take the Word, apply it, and walk in obedience to see it manifested in your life.
Many times, Christians believe that once God has spoken, everything will happen automatically. They use phrases like “what will be, will be,” and in ignorance, they sit waiting for a turnaround without action. 

James 2:17 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.

But faith and works go hand in hand. For there to be manifestation, you must align your faith with your actions, and that produces results.it is foolishness to think that faith alone is fine or work alone is fine. 
Do you desire a job? Then apply while exercising faith.
You desire a career breakthrough? Improve yourself, learn, grow, and prepare.
Has God shown you something? Has He placed a vision in your heart? Do you perceive that where you are now is not where you are meant to remain, and that what you desire to do long-term is different? Then why not act in faith and start investing in that vision?
The Word has been spoken. Now you must run with it until manifestation comes.

Are You Ready?


Ready or not, what would you embrace for the sake of the Gospel?
For the sake of the Gospel, how far would I go?
For the sake of the Gospel, what death would I choose?
For the sake of the Gospel, what life should I lead?

Yes, maybe at first we came to Jesus because of what we thought He would do for us. But have we stepped into the place where we say, “Lord, I choose the path You have written for me”?

Far be it from me, O Lord, to choose my comfort over the weight of the call You have placed upon my shoulders.
I would go miles with You, as long as I journey with You.

Acts 21:13

GNT:
“But he answered, ‘What are you doing, crying like this and breaking my heart? I am ready not only to be tied up in Jerusalem but even to die there for the sake of the Lord Jesus.’”

NKJV:
“Then Paul answered, ‘What do you mean by weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.’”

We all want to be Jesus babies but God is calling us into a greater communion where our choices and life decisions would intertwine into that heaven has written out for us.
Most times it wouldn't be what we consider "best" for ourselves but because heaven wants it we would choose it.

How far will you go for the sake of the gospel?

Do Not Harden Your Heart in Unbelief


Today, if you hear the voice of the Lord through His Word, do not harden your heart in unbelief. There is something that can separate us from the rest God has promised, and that thing is unbelief.
When God gives a word, He desires that we believe in His ability to perform it and bring that word to life. God is always willing to reveal Himself, but what He seeks is a man or woman who will trust His ability, align with His strategy, and maintain the right posture to see the fulfillment of His promises.
In the book of Hebrews, we see that Paul did not describe unbelief as merely a lack of trust in God, but as something wicked and evil.The book of Hebrew records God saying;
Hebrews 3:10–12
“That is why I was angry with that generation; I said, ‘Their hearts are always going astray, and they have not known my ways.’ So I declared on oath in my anger, ‘They shall never enter my rest.’
See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God.”
This act of unbelief delayed the Israelites from entering into the rest God had promised them — the land of Canaan. In the same way, our unbelief has the capacity to prolong our wilderness journey. Things that were meant to take a short while become delayed because we fail to trust God’s ability to perform His Word.
Unbelief rarely comes alone. It often comes with second options, doubt, fear, and alternatives to God’s instructions.
Has God given you a word of rest?
Has He told you that He is bringing you into a season of peace, restoration, or fulfillment? Yet everything around you seems contrary to what He said?
Friend, this is not the time to fall into unbelief. This is the time to take every word God has spoken into the prayer room and war it into reality.
Hebrews 3:19
“So we see that they were not able to enter, because of their unbelief.”
Unbelief is one of the greatest tyrants against the manifestation of the supernatural promises of God.
Here is the truth: the rest you desire can only come when you decide to trust God’s ability to perform what He has spoken. Take intentional steps that reflect your faith. Align yourself with His instructions, pray fervently, and hold firmly to His promises.
Just because God says, “Come into My rest,” does not mean we enter it automatically. Faith, obedience, alignment, and persistence are required to walk into the manifestation of His Word.

What Do You Do When the Lord Seems Distant?



Has the Lord seemed distant to you lately?

As the Holy Spirit laid this question on my heart, I realized it was not merely about delayed answers to prayers or a waiting season. It was about those moments when everything suddenly goes quiet — sometimes after a powerful season of prayer and fasting, prophetic ministrations, or deep encounters with God. Just when you think, “I’ve got it,” everything grows cold and silent. Then it begins to feel as though the Lord’s voice is no longer loud enough, or perhaps He is not speaking at all.

But God will never leave His own without a word.

Even in the quiet moments, God is saying:

"Do not become so dependent on the loud displays of My power — the early morning conversations, the walks, the business instructions, the decisions, the plans for growth in your marriage or purpose. If there are moments when My voice grows quiet, it is because I have already given you the strategies and structures to journey with concerning that matter. Search it out in My Word and see if it aligns with what I have already spoken."

If you are searching for direction and the Lord is not specifically saying, “Go north” or “Go south,” perhaps you should seek alignment with the strategies and structures He has already given concerning your life.

Most times, the answer is not found in every tiny detail but in the broader picture God has already revealed.

So whenever the moments grow quiet, we can be assured that God has not abandoned us. Every time He allows us to walk through certain valleys, it is not only to demonstrate His mighty power, but also to prepare us for future crossroads where the answer will come from the training and wisdom He had already given long before.

The journey may be difficult, but just like the Israelites, whenever we are tempted to return to old ways or lose heart, we must never forget how the Lord has led us before.

Quiet seasons will come, and sometimes all the answer we need will already exist within the bigger picture God has spoken over our lives.

To the pure, All things are pure.


Have you noticed that in this time, where people glorify sin, when they see someone walking on the right path, they tend to ridicule the person and make them feel odd or awkward, attempting to cause them to derail from the path of truth?

Notice that the Apostle Paul spoke about this kind of situation in TITUS 1:15–16:

“To the pure all things are pure, but to those who are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; but even their mind and conscience are defiled. They profess to know God, but in works they deny Him, being abominable, disobedient, and disqualified for every good work.”

In this time, it is very important to surround yourself with the right kind of people. “To the pure all things are pure.” Even if they do not yet see all things as pure, they believe that everything can be made pure with God.

We must be very vigilant and attentive, watching out for those who pretend to know God, having a form of godliness while their works deny Him. The Holy Ghost is not silent in the life of a man. When He comes into the chambers of your life and begins to navigate it, what follows is a change in character  you begin to produce fruit.

No one sees what is happening inside a seed when it is planted in the soil, but the outcome  the fruit  is very visible. This is to say that our lives are meant to produce fruits that abide. We cannot profess to know God while continuing in a life of disobedience, abominable character, and ungodly behavior, yet still claim to be representatives of Christ.

It is time we examine ourselves through the lens of the Spirit, being truthful with ourselves about where we fall short. When we do, we must be willing to accept correction and ask the Holy Ghost for the power to live righteously.

We notice that the world is always looking for a way to speak against the Church, and this is often because of the character of the people they encounter. We must remember that we are representatives of Christ. We do not merely exist; we exist to reveal a dimension of God. As such, we must take deliberate steps to live in obedience to His instructions.

Jesus, the true path.


I was having a conversation with my sister when she told me how most of her kids find some churches boring and not exciting.
It made me think about the rapid increase of misleading teachings—doctrines that suggest a Christian can sit on the fence, serve God, and still hold on to other things. Some say, “At the end, it’s your heart that God looks at, and as long as there is love in your heart, you’re fine.”
But this points to a deeper issue. It means we truly do not understand who Jesus is and why Jesus died if we believe we can live divided lives.
We cannot serve two masters” (Matthew 6:24).
And again, “I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot… because you are lukewarm… I will spit you out of my mouth” (Revelation 3:15–16).
The truth is if you decide to sit on the fence, you are not actually in between; you are out of God's camp.
If sitting on the fence was acceptable, then there would have been no need for His sacrifice.
Jesus died for our salvation so that we would not live in confusion, but in faith, fully trusting in Him.

When we know Him, we know God. Every true encounter with Jesus is an encounter with God, because
“Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me’” (John 14:6).
There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is destruction (Proverbs 14:12). That path may feel right, look right, and even seem harmless but feelings are not the standard of truth.
Jesus took upon Himself that sentence of destruction.
“For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall be made alive” (1 Corinthians 15:22).
He became the last Adam so that we could be free from the judgment of death and come into life.
Beloved, the decision to follow Jesus is not based on what feels right; it is a walk of faith.

And by the grace and mercies of God, we grow into the fullness of Christ.
So be sure the path you take today and trust God to help you through this journey of life.

The Face of the Gospel

 


The gospel means different things to each of us. When we encounter God, it is often not from the same place or in the same state. Yet the reality remains: Christ meets us at our point of need.

Today, as I studied the Acts of the Apostles, specifically Paul’s journey, the Holy Spirit highlighted Paul’s vision of a man who cried out, “Come over to Macedonia and help us!”

The question the Lord is asking is this: What is the help you desire at this moment?

Acts 16:9 GNT:

“That night Paul had a vision in which he saw a Macedonian standing and begging him, ‘Come over to Macedonia and help us!’”

God’s Word:

“During the night Paul had a vision of a man from Macedonia. The man urged him, ‘Come to Macedonia to help us.’”

To some, the gospel is help. To others, it is salvation, peace, deliverance, restoration, victory, transformation, or rest. The list can never be exhausted, because our Savior brings us so much more than we can ever define. We cannot limit Him based on our personal experiences or encounters.

Our heart posture should not simply be, “Lord, I want to take my experience of You to the world,” but rather, “Lord, may I bring the gospel in a way that meets the true needs of Your people.”

This is what God is saying to us: Do not present the gospel as though it has only one expression or dimension of truth. Jesus is not confined to a single reality. In our journey with God, we must come with open hearts like an empty vessel ready for the unchanging God to reveal Himself in new and deeper ways.

When we introduce Jesus to others, we may encounter someone struggling with peace. And we can say: Yes, Jesus saves but He is more than salvation alone. Embedded in His sacrifice is a covenant of peace, signed, sealed, and established forever.

Today, Jesus is…

“What Are You Doing With It?”

 

The Scripture says in Habakkuk 2:14:
“For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea.”

So the question is this: what have you been doing with the knowledge of God that you have received to see this prophetic word come to be?

Have you treated it like something casual, like news you read in a newspaper or a line from a novel? The Word of God is life, and it only becomes living reality when you believe it and put it to work.

When the Bible says the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, it is not speaking of mere head knowledge. It is referring to something visible, tangible, and undeniable the manifest glory of God revealed across the earth.

Think about the sea. Have you ever observed it closely? There are no empty spaces, no dry gaps, no place where water is absent. The sea is completely saturated. Every part is covered.

In the same way, there will come a time when no tribe, nation, or continent will be able to say they have not heard of Jesus. The knowledge of God will cover the earth completely fully, undeniably, and without exception.

So again, the question remains: what are you doing with the Word of God you have heard? What are you doing with the freedom and salvation you have received?

You must embrace the prophetic Word in Habakkuk 2:14 with hope and joy, and make a conscious decision to play your part in its fulfillment. You were not saved for yourself alone. Through each of us, the glory of the Lord is meant to be revealed on the earth, so that all people may see and know that He is God.

So I ask you today:
What are you doing with the Word of God, with the salvation, and with the freedom you have received?

It is time yo make conscious effort toward living a God filled life and a life where th3 manifest hand and glory of God is seen on a daily basis.

Rejoice Always: The Posture of Joy and Thanksgiving


You know that in life it is very easy to let our joy rise and fall with circumstances. When things go well, we rejoice. When they don’t, our joy fades. But Scripture calls us to something better, something more stable than emotions tied to situations.
We are often reminded to “pray without ceasing” (1 Thessalonians 5:17). Yet, many times we overlook the verse just before it: “rejoice always.” This is not a suggestion; it is a posture God invites us to live in daily.

Joy is not a Reaction but a Posture.

True joy does not come from what is happening around us. It flows from our communion with God. It is rooted in the confidence that no matter what we face, we will be sustained as long as we remain in His presence.
God is merciful and just. He is not indifferent to our pain, nor does He desire for us to remain in suffering. His desire is to bring us into the glory of His Son, Jesus Christ. Even when we feel pressed on every side, we are not destroyed.
Then just immediately after pray without season we see the Power of Thanksgiving.
The Scripture says in 1 Thessalonians 5:18:
“In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”
Notice it says in everything, not for everything. This means that even in difficult seasons: moments when we question, when we struggle, when we wonder if God sees us, we are still called to give thanks.
Why? 
Because thanksgiving shifts our focus.
To be thankful is to recognize God as the Source. It positions our hearts in dependence and obedience. It reminds us that even when we have not yet seen the desired outcome, we trust the One who holds the outcome.
Staying Rooted in Joy.
God’s will is for us to remain thankful because He knows what it produces in us. A thankful heart keeps us looking up. It strengthens our faith. It anchors us in hope.
When we choose joy, even in uncertainty, we are making a declaration: that our trust is not in circumstances, but in God’s faithfulness.

Beloved, today is another opportunity to come before God with a joyful heart. Shake off discouragement. Lay aside heaviness. Approach Him not just with requests, but with gratitude.
Pour out your desires in the place of joy. Stay connected to His presence. Remain thankful, steadfast, and confident.
Because as long as you stay rooted in Him, He will come through for you.

God bless you.

...Ought Always to Pray and Not to Faint


Tired?
Exhausted?
Weary?
Or maybe it’s that quiet feeling of, “I really don’t even know how I feel.”

Trying to put a name to what you’re experiencing…

For quite some time now, whenever I start a conversation with close acquaintances, this has been their response. It just goes on and on.

It’s very easy to get to this point—to feel stuck and not really know what to make of certain things.

While Moyo and I were talking, we got to a point where the Holy Spirit brought this to mind:
“Men ought always to pray and not to faint.” (Bible, Luke 18:1)

I’m not saying you haven’t been praying enough, or that you’ve been doing it the wrong way. I’m simply saying—maybe we can stretch a little further. Maybe we can go deeper.

One of my favorite ministers once said: “The opposite of prayer is not prayerlessness—it is fainting.”
That image of fainting… gasping for breath.

And honestly, that’s what tiredness and exhaustion often look like.
It’s us gasping for breath.
Trying not to drown.
Trying to stay sane.
Trying to survive.
Trying to hold everything together.

We keep trying, and trying, and trying…

But God has already given us a remedy—why not pray about it?

Yes, you’ve prayed. But this time, set the need aside for a moment and ask God to help your heart.

Because when the heart is burdened, everything feels heavy.
But when the heart is lifted, it changes how we see and handle everything.

Even in moments when the words don’t feel powerful enough…
Or when you’re too weary to say much…

You can be sure that “the effectual, fervent prayer of a righteous person avails much.” (James 5:16)

It’s not about how loud we scream,
but about the sincerity of a heart reaching out to God and whispering:

“Lord, help me.”

What Have You Done With My Love?


There is a popular song with a simple yet deeply profound message: “This Jesus I have seen is enough for me.” It goes on to say, “This Jesus I have held is enough for me.”

But as I studied the Scriptures, particularly in Acts of the Apostles, where the great miracle in Joppa occurred, the question shifted. It was no longer about whether I had held or encountered Jesus. Instead, it became: What have I done with the One I have held?

In Acts 9:39, we read:

“So Peter rose and went with them. When he arrived, they took him to the upper room. All the widows stood around him, weeping and showing the tunics and other garments that Dorcas had made while she was still with them.”

It is so easy to become consumed with our own needs and requests that we forget this truth: Jesus’ answers to our prayers. His visits to us are not an end in themselves. They are invitations. He is asking, “What have you received that you take it out there?” Because what you carry might be the very miracle someone else is believing for. Your journey could ignite hope in another.

When this woman, Dorcas (Tabitha), encountered Jesus, it is clear she knew Him as her Source and Provider. The Bible does not tell us whether she was wealthy or where her resources came from. But it tells us enough: she had a heart willing to care for others. Her love was expressed through action—so much so that her works spoke for her even after her death.

She had seen Jesus in a certain light, and she chose to let others experience that same light through her life.

“This much I have received. I want others to partake of it.”

If we have encountered Him as our Light, then we must remember: there is a world in deep darkness that needs that light.

If you have seen His protection, can you extend that assurance to someone who is afraid?

If you have seen Him make a way, can you testify: “There was a time I felt all hope was lost—but that was the beginning of my deliverance.”

I have seen Jesus, and I do not want to see Him alone. I want the world to see Him through every part of me.

God gives, and gives, and keeps giving—all so He can draw us closer to Himself. John 3:16 is the summary of His greatest gift:

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son…”

The voice of Elohim is echoing within us:

“Come, let Me show you how to love this way.”

You have seen My love manifested in your life—now become an extension of who I am:

His wisdom

His grace

His love

His peace

All these we now carry because we have first seen them in Him.

Today, God is saying:

“Show the world the Jesus you have seen.”

When good is not about you but God



This morning, I was in a cab heading to the Island on my way to work. When I entered, I asked the driver for the fare, and he told me. There was already a lady seated at the back, and as more passengers entered, she asked an elderly woman—perhaps her mother or sister—why the driver was charging everyone the same amount, even though some had joined the ride midway. She said it felt like cheating, while the other woman disagreed.
Immediately, my heart drifted to the word good. How do we truly define “good”? Have we become people who define good only by what benefits us? When it works in our favor, it is good—but when it doesn’t, suddenly it is not.
We love to see good things happen to us, but when it’s someone else’s turn, we often turn away and pretend not to see. Scripture says, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself” (Mark 12:31), which means we should treat others exactly how we want to be treated—loving them as long as it is within our power.
The Bible also reminds us, “Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them” (Matthew 7:12). This is the true measure of goodness.
When God created man, He looked and saw that he was good (Genesis 1:31). This means there is something within you that has the capacity for good. But the fall of man introduced a distorted definition of what good is. Yet God is calling us back to His standard—to pursue peace with all and to seek the good of others: “If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men” (Romans 12:18).
Scripture also says, “Let each of us please his neighbor for his good, leading to edification” (Romans 15:2), and “Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in the power of your hand to do so” (Proverbs 3:27).
Be accommodating. Be kind. Be polite. “God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him” (1 John 4:16). Those who worship Him must reflect His character.

God is Calling, Can You Hear?


Yes, God is calling—can you hear Him?

Recently, I listened to a minister who brought out a scripture that says, “In the last days, the whole earth will be filled with the knowledge of God.” Then a reflective question was asked: if God has promised that the earth will be filled with His knowledge, why are we still surrounded by so much darkness and destruction?

The truth is, God said the earth will be filled with the knowledge of Him, but there was no clause stating that the knowledge of evil would be withdrawn. So, each day, just as God is seeking men and women who will propagate His agenda and purpose, the enemy is also raising strategies to spread his own knowledge.

God is calling—can you hear Him?

He is asking: What kind of content are you putting out there?

I know there are some reserved believers who would rather live quietly as Christians, but even in our quietness, we can still say “yes” to God in the simplest posture and position we take.

God is calling for builders. Knowledge and information are also building materials. But He is asking, Can I partner with you so that the whole earth can truly be filled with the knowledge of Me?

All I need is your mind.
All I need are your hands.
All I need are your deeds.

But can we be partners, so that this part of you becomes an extension of Me?

Just like Stephen, of whom it was recorded that he was so full of the Holy Spirit that everything he did was controlled by Him—can we choose that posture?

A posture where everything we have can be used by God, and not even the fear of death can separate us from Him.

And so, we ask that the Lord grant us grace for this season—that our hearts will perceive what He is doing, and that we will align with it, because this is the way of builders.

God is calling—can you hear Him?

After Prayer: Strategy for manifestation


Prayer and strategy are what produce results. Many of us have learned to pray consistently and that is good, but we often miss an important part of the process. 
After praying, or even while praying, we must also put strategies in place to bring the victories God has shown and promised into manifestation.
It is not enough to just pray; you must also be strategic. Even in prayer, we should come to a place where we ask God questions: 
“How will this be? 
You have shown me this how will it come to pass? 

James 2:26 (KJV) 

“For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.”

What steps should I take to see it manifested?”
For example, if you have prayed for the salvation of souls, you must also go out and preach so that your prayers can find expression. It is like praying for career growth without applying for jobs there will be no results without action.
Faith and work go hand in hand. You must cooperate with God, taking intentional and practical steps instead of assuming things will automatically fall into place. As you act in alignment with your prayers, God brings His promises to life in due time.

Remember the story of Moses. When God called him to return to Egypt as a deliverer, it was not without strategy. Moses asked the Lord questions, and received instructions. When he wondered if Pharaoh would believe him, God gave him specific signs to demonstrate His power.
Before this encounter, the desire to deliver Israel was already in Moses, but his earlier attempt failed because it was not done God’s way. It was after his encounter with God that he received divine strategies. This shows us that vision alone is not enough we need God’s direction to execute it properly, that why your strategy must align with God's plan.

You cannot say you want to build after praying and then neglect strategy. Every building requires a foundation, structure, and process. In the same way, every answered prayer requires intentional steps and alignment with God’s instructions.
Walking in Godly strategy is part of God’s plan for manifestation. When we combine prayer with action, we position ourselves to see results that last.

Prayer:
As we seek God in prayer, may we also receive divine strategies to build lasting structures. May our faith be expressed through intentional action, and may every promise of God find manifestation in our lives, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Seek yee first protocol

“But seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”
(Matthew 6:33)

It is your ability to search that causes you to find. He who searches is in need of something, and that “something” you seek in is the Lord that can truly satisfy, if you seek something else and still feel a void on your inside.

You will realize that many people, before they encounter God, seek communion. They know that the world is controlled by a Supreme Being, but they have not yet found Him. I want to tell you today that the peace you are seeking can only come when you choose to follow Jesus.

That peace you seek can only come when you go after His Kingdom. For His Kingdom is not just a faraway place, but one you begin to enter and encounter even here on earth, because we are seated in heavenly places.
However, for you to truly come into the Kingdom, there is a standard—this is the “Seek ye first” protocol. Scripture says, Seek ye first His Kingdom.
Seek growth in the knowledge of Him.
Seek to live a righteous life.
Do not just have the gift of the Holy Spirit, but also bear the fruits.
Seek His righteousness, and every other thing, according to His will and purpose for your life, He will bring to pass.
“Seek ye first protocol ” should be our daily meditation, so that every day we ask Him, “Lord what would You have me do today?”Even as we come into the place of fellowship and communion with him today I pray that we receive the grace and the anointing to live right, in the name of Jesus. Grace to live right and not lose sight of the purpose of God for our lives in this season.

In Jesus name, Amen.

Be on your guard for no one knows the time.


Be watchful, for no one knows the day or the hour when the Bridegroom will come for His bride.

“Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.” (Matthew 25:13)

Years ago, I had a conversation about the coming of Jesus. A lady said—not out of sarcasm, but from a place of limited understanding—
“Since I was young, I’ve been hearing that Jesus is coming. When will He come?”

My response remains the same: it is not for us to know the time or the hour of His coming.
“It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority.” (Acts 1:7)

But one thing is certain—when death comes, your opportunity to wait for Him ends. So why not choose now who you will serve, and remain in that decision?

In the parable of the virgins, no one told them exactly when the bridegroom would arrive. They were prepared with lamps, but some lacked enough oil to last until he comes. This reflects us in different phases of life—when we grow weary of waiting on the Lord and begin to choose what does not align with His will.

The timing of the Lord’s coming should not be our focus. Our focus should be readiness—so we are not caught off guard.

We must stand as watchmen, guarding our hearts against intruders—those distractions and temptations that cause us to lose focus and make wrong choices and decisions.

Let us not be like the Pharisees and Sadducees, who waited for the Messiah, yet failed to recognize Him when He came.

We must live with eternity in view, knowing it is closer than we think. Ask yourself: If Christ came today, would I be counted among His own?

Jesus’ birth was announced long before it happened, yet many did not recognize Him when He came. So it will be with His return—the sound will go forth, but only those who have prepared in salvation, prayer, and posture will be he it and be caught up.

Beloved, do not be carried away by the brokenness of this world and forget that there is life beyond this one. This life is only a preparation for eternity. It is better to lose anything in this world than to lose eternity.

When Did He Stop Being Your Lord?

 

Today, as I reflected on the account of John in the death and resurrection of Jesus, I became reflective. For a few moments, I didn’t feel emotional—I simply paused and took in the words of Mary when she said, “They have taken my Lord, and I don’t know where they have laid Him.”

John 20:13

“And they said to her, ‘Woman, why are you sobbing?’ She said to them, ‘Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid Him.’”

To Mary—who had journeyed with her Master, watched Him be beaten, crucified, and buried—all she had left to hold onto was His body. Yet even in death, she still called Him “my Lord.” Death could not take Jesus’ position in Mary’s life.

She stood, waited, and kept waiting… asking anyone she thought might know:

“If you have taken my Master, show me where He is so I can take Him.”

“My Lord.”

To her, He remained her Lord.

She would wait for Him—even if it was only His body.

Mary’s posture becomes a question for us today:

What position does Jesus hold in our lives?

Mary waited for a Lord she believed was still in the grave. Yet we live in the truth of His resurrection—so why do we struggle to keep Him as Lord?

Has something else taken His place?

Maybe—just maybe—the trials and temptations of life have replaced Him.

Or perhaps the very things we prayed for—marriage, children, jobs, fame, or business—have slowly become idols seated in our hearts, displacing Him.

So I ask you:

Is Jesus still your Lord?

Or has He become the One standing at the door of your heart, knocking, waiting to be welcomed again as “my Lord”?

There can only be one Lord.

Will you choose Jesus today?

If the miracle delays, will you still wait for Him?

Will His promises still matter when everything becomes blurry?

Once again, will you ask Him to root you in Himself, so that every day, you will choose Him?

“Jesus, root me in You, so I can always find my way in You.”

It is not a one-time event

Colossians 2:6–7

“As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.”

A journey with Christ Jesus is a journey of victory. It is a life where you are assured of triumph. Salvation is not just answering an altar call or making a public declaration that you have chosen Jesus. It is not a one-time event—it is a daily decision to keep choosing Him.

Every day, we choose His Word, His instructions, and a life of trust and obedience. This daily choice launches us into a deeper discovery of who God is, and in Him, we truly discover who we are. It is through this process that we begin to live in the character of Jesus.

To be rooted in Christ means to be steadfast and unshakable, even in the midst of chaos and challenges. It means staying focused, fixing your eyes on Him, and trusting that you will neither fail nor fall.

It is like a seed planted in the soil. As the seed grows roots deep into the ground, it becomes stronger over time. Eventually, it sprouts and grows above the surface. With consistent nourishment—water and care—it continues to grow and flourish.

This is God’s desire for every one of His children: that we be deeply rooted in Him. Through daily communion and obedience, we grow and build spiritual strength in Him.

For us to be rooted, we need faith—and the truth is, we already have faith. Choosing Jesus is an act of faith. Scripture says that if our faith is as small as a mustard seed, we can speak to mountains to be removed and cast into the sea, and it will happen.

We must hold firmly to our salvation in Christ Jesus through faith so that we can stand strong in these changing times. God’s plan is that we walk by faith, continually abounding in thanksgiving, trusting that He will do exactly what He has said.

A Heart Like Abraham's

Lately, as I have been reading about the journey of Father Abraham, I cannot help but wonder what kind of heart he had. Imagine ...
