DAY 150 Mark 10:28 Peter began to say to Him, “Look, we have left everything and followed You.” Dont be surprised at all when one day, all of a sudden you wake up and begin to take stock of the things in your life purely from an investment point of view. There are times when... Continue Reading →
MINIBITES
DAY 149 A few points for reflection even as we approach the end of the month 1. If the devil finds the gate of your love, you can become a slave through lust. Man is a creature of appetites: visual, auditory, sensual, tactile among others. These regulate our walk and talk. Where a man has... Continue Reading →
PENTECOST
DAY 147 We have the Holy Spirit, but does He have us? As many as believed, He gave power to become sons of God(John 1:12). However, becoming is only the start because as many as are led by the Spirit, they are the sons of God(Romans 8:14). What therefore is your degree of alignment and... Continue Reading →
WATCH OUT FOR DISTRACTIONS
DAY 146 Peter receives a rather sharp rebuke when he attempts to ask Jesus about what plans He had for John. His question seemed to be a rather innocent: 'Lord, what about him?(Jn 21:21b)" Jesus' response is even more interesting. He looks squarely at Peter and tells him 'If I want him to live until...

WHEN IT’S ALL BEEN SAID AND DONE
DAY 143 We live our lives occupied by many many thoughts: what to eat or wear, where to lay our heads, how to provide for those over whom we are in charge. Beyond this, we are concerned with how to make impact: in our community and in the world, how to keep our faith, improve... Continue Reading →
WHEN WAS YOUR ANCHORING MOMENT?
DAY 142 John 16:30 Now we are sure that You know all things, and have no need that anyone should question You. By this we believe that You came forth from God.” I know it might seem like we simply believed in Jesus when we found out about Him and stayed following and continually believing...

GOD STILL HAS MEN
DAY 139 There is an ongoing war, a battle between good and evil, between light and darkness, between those who are on the Lord's side and those who are not. This battle however has an interesting prize as its target- while it does appear that the grande picture is the entire colonisation of large swaths... Continue Reading →
