UNTIL THE FLOODS CAME

Luke 17:27 They were eating and drinking and marrying and being given in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. There are two main groups of people: those who react and those who pro-act. The former group finds themselves in trouble when things sneak up... Continue Reading →

THE STATE OF YOUR HEART

Psalms 24:3-4 Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. The heart biologically, is an interesting organ with complex mechanism underlying it's function. Any impact... Continue Reading →

PURSUIT WITHIN BOUNDARIES

Reference text: 1 Timothy 7:2-12 In reading today's text, St Paul says in 1 Timothy 6:7 " For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out."

Like Bartimaeus, she took advantage of the office of Christ as 'son of David' to receive help. Interestingly, the scene in the text that caught my attention beyond her interactions with Jesus, were the words the disciples... Continue Reading →

RESOURCES FOR CHRISTIAN LIVING

Matthew 6:24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. Many appear to have taken the words 'seek ye first the Kingdom of God and its righteousness and... Continue Reading →

WHO IS YOUR SOURCE?

DAY 116/366 Matthew 13:54 When he came to his hometown, he taught the people in their synagogue. They were surprised and said, “Where did he get this wisdom?
