Sing Praises To The Lord
We all need to learn to praise God, because we are by nature grumblers. We tend to complain more than we praise. Do you enjoy singing to God? How have praising God help you remember His past grace and have confidence in His future faithfulness?
The Blindness Of Man
The blindness of men is a condition which our Lord Jesus spoke at length about during His ministry on earth. Have we really asked what have we been so blind about? How did that blindness result in our failure to read the events of this world? And during Jesus’ times, “blindness” was not only being used to describe the condition of the pagans, but more so the religious leaders of His time. So what is the solution for that blindness?
Man’s Real Need
What is Man’s real need? Often, we thought we know what we need. Or we thought we know the source of our problem. Sadly, we are always looking at the symptoms, not the diseases.

Go Into The Red Sea, Saved By God’s Way
Prayer is essential to the Christian life. But what if a person keeps praying yet has no actions after that? Especially in matters where God has given clear guidance, will continual praying without action become a form of “delay tactic”? How far have you moved on after prayers? Being believers who have crossed over from death into life in Christ, how much have you been freed from the past bondages?
The Act Involved In Sanctification
In putting off our old self and putting on our new self particularly, we often hear ministers asking people to pray, experience a deliverance, or let go and let God. Yet, are these scriptural at all?

Find out why the act of sanctification is never to be taken lightly.
Stand Firm, The Lord Will Fight For You
One of the hardest things for us to do is to stand still, especially in the face of dangers. However, sometimes God asks us to simply stand firm and watch how He fights for us. We all love to have God fighting for us. But are we willing to surrender our control and desires and let God fight for us on His terms?
Read God’s Word Yet Not Knowing His Heart?
If God’s word is so important that our lives depend on it, do you think you have understood God’s word correctly? How should we read God’s word? Through the word of God, are you able to understand His heart?
God’s Strange Yet Faithful Guidance
Many a times we may find God’s guidance “strange”. Why did He lead us on a detour when there was a shorter way? Why did He let us go the hard way instead of the easy one? Yet, do we know how much hidden dangers God had helped us evade by that “longer” path? And even if God really gives us the shortest and easiest way, will we surely follow Him?
Consecrate Yourself and Every Firstborn to God
In the relationship between God and His people, God is the major player, who initiates and sustains His relationship with us. Yet, we should have our due response too. God not only redeems His people, but He also wants His redemption to influence and shape our entire lives, such that we live to honor the One who redeemed us. As we commemorate God’s gracious redemption, are we willing to consecrate our lives to Him?
