Make The Most Of Our Time
Our time in this world is truly limited and instead of seeing it as the world sees, let us be reminded never to outgrow our need to pray, gather and stay firmly planted patiently in the Lord’s work.
In Between Death And Resurrection
What do you think were the feelings of Jesus’ followers in between His death and resurrection? Did they believe Him when he said He will be killed and after three days He will rise? How about us? Have we also encountered a situation similar to “sitting opposite the tomb of Jesus”? As dreadful as it is, without the “tomb” (death) of Jesus, we will have no hope of salvation at all! Certainly, none of us like to “sit opposite the tomb”, but paradoxically, it is also there that we are being brought to be broken before God, to repent and renew. Moreover, the bigger the problem, the greater is God’s victory and glory which are revealed eventually.
Be A Word Keeper
We are all representatives and ambassadors of God. All that we have said or done are all done within the sight of the Lord. Therefore, we must not take what we say lightly. When we honour our every word, it really gives weightage to our Christian belief and the image of God through our lives. It reflects that our truthfulness are in fact, showing how even more trustworthy our God can be.
The Dangers Of The “Name It Claim It” Movement
As the “name it, claim it” movement is gaining ground in the church arena, believers are getting into a hype of speaking blessings into their lives. Many were, in fact, taught that as image bearer of God, they’ve the ability to speak what they’ve in their mind into reality. Why are such teachings unbiblical? And why are people claiming that it works?
A Different List
The checklist of life encompasses many different tick-boxes and they vary at different stages of life, different roles and different nature of people. What is on your list this moment in life, brothers and sisters?
The Err Of Knowing Myself Before Knowing God
Can a created being know himself without knowing God? Far from it! Yet this is what a godless world believes in. In contemporary churches, when seeking self-awareness and self-dignity seems to dominate the pulpit, messages of “who I am” seems to supersede “who God is”. Learn about how these messages and ideas are making inroads into the church nowadays.
Anticipating and Hoping For People
In the journey of hoping on the people around us, there may be many setbacks and struggles, but let this be a refining phase for ourselves and for the people we love that hope truly comes from none other than the Lord Himself and when we lean upon Him, He will guide and sustain us.
A Generation That Yearns For Self Empowerment
A secular world believes in its right and ability to self-empower, and that is the reason why contemporary Christian message and literature have leverage on it to gain popularity. The result is, many in the church today have settled for the by-products of Christ, instead of Christ Himself. Find out how subtle is this kind of self empowering message related through the name of Christianity.
“You Are What You Eat”
Let us not merely crave for short term satisfaction from the world and limit the goodness of the Lord. But, instead, cleanse our palate and diet daily with the true superfood, that is the nutritious word of the Lord, as we abide by the will of God for us.
Give Me Neither Poverty Nor Riches
In a world full of comparisons and things that stir up our desires, it is indeed hard to remain content. Yet, the Bible offers us one wise prayer which we should all learn, especially in such times as the lingering pandemic, where our income may take a dip, or financial challenges may tempt us to doubt God or disobey Him. Let’s learn from the prayer of Proverbs 30:7-9 today.
