The Spirit Helps Us In Our Weakness
Weakness and inability is inherent in our nature, but the help of the Holy Spirit is the promise and method God has given us. Blessed are those who master this secret! Because they will then be able to declare like the apostle, “For when I am weak, then I am strong.” <2 Co 12:10>
Can I Be Peaceful When God Allows Calamity?
The question in most people’s mind now is if God is both sovereign and good, why did He ordain the current pandemic which brought about so much hardships and deaths? Find out what great things HE could be doing beyond the goodness we perceive to be. Find out how you can enjoy the peace that HE promised even in these times.
Why Did Calamity Come? When Will It End?
The two most common questions asked by people when sufferings and problems come. What is God trying to do through this whole calamity? Let us find out through this message and realign our understanding with God’s heart.
Possessing Hope In Bleak Situation
If we leave things to chance or put our hopes in man, what hope can they be? In a pandemic, everyone’s guess is as good as one another. Yet, be reminded that God did not leave His loved ones and His promises offer true hope in the most dire situation.
What Does The Cross Mean To A World In Turmoil?
I believe God our Father will not want His children to fear in whatsoever situation, and the most often mentioned negative prohibition by our Jesus in His ministry on earth is: “Fear not”. “Do no fear, do not be afraid”. You hear this all the time from the Lord’s mouth. God knows how helpless we could be, and how paralysing fear can be. And just as the world is hoping for good news, for infections to go down, for vaccines to be developed, let us, who are called Christian, to wholeheartedly remember the Son of God.
Consider Carefully How You Listen
“How we should listen” is more important than anything else. Especially in this crisis situation when the pandemic continues to spread, what people do will be largely based on what they hear. However, instead of always focusing on the world, perhaps we should reflect more about how we are listening currently. Especially when we hear God’s word every week: Do we hear and forget? Do we merely hear what we want to hear? Or are we obeying God after hearing? This will basically determine the fruits of our whole life.
Dealing With Fear During Unprecedented Times
With the spread of the coronavirus, many hearts are unsettled, and it grows by the day with news of infection and death rates rising. In these times, what is God revealing to us and what is God pointing us to? Let us renew our perspective and truth through our very first Weekend Devotion with Pastor Vincent.
Let Us Live Up To What We Have Already Attained
In the lesson of faith, if there are no trials of many kinds, faith certainly cannot possibly move to the stage of being mature and complete. However, whenever practical trials come, we will face the spiritual battle that no one desires. Especially, with this pandemic, our faith is constantly being refined and tested. Perhaps the majority view and sentiment hopes that believers do not even meet in groups of ten and below. Certainly, not everyone can withstand such pressure, but the Lord’s word tells us, “Let us live up to what we have already attained.”
Facing Guilt In Inevitable Circumstances
The problem of guilt exists in the human hearts since the fall of men. It is guilt that brings fear actually. Yet when unforeseen undesirable situation arises, causing some unintended consequences, how do we set ourselves free from guilt then? With the Coronavirus striking the churches and society today, we see people reacted with both guilt and fear. How do Christians overcome our inner struggles?
Let No One Be Stumbled Because Of The Epidemic
As we go through this epidemic, some of our strengths may be revealed, while some of our weaknesses may show. This allows us to understand each other more, and act on the love from God. May none of us be stumbled by this epidemic.
