A daily walk in faith, hope and love
John 20:21-22 When Peter saw him, he asked, “Lord, what about him?”Jesus answered, “If I want him to remain alive until I return, what is that to you? You must follow me.

Reference: Matthew 4:12-17, 23-25 If there was one man who had impeccable timings, it would be Jesus. On multiple occasions, we notice he moved only when specific details had arrived, as though he was waiting for them. When Lazarus was sick, he heard but did not move.

It is however a fuel for further activity. POWER on the other hand is the ability to produce an effect. Hence, power always tends to... Continue Reading →
Haggai 2:4 Yet now be strong, O Zerubbabel, saith the LORD; and be strong, O Joshua, son of Josedech, the high priest; and be strong, all ye people of the land, saith the LORD, and work: for I am with you, saith the LORD of hosts: It is interesting how one word taken as it's... Continue Reading →
