Faith Over Fear

People often focus too much on where they’ve been. Where they are from, the manner in which they grew up. The poor choices they’ve made, and the setbacks that they’ve experienced. But life isn’t about where you’ve been, it’s about where you’re going. The person I was isn’t the person I am, nor is it the person that I hope to become. You see, God wants your attention to be focused on the present. He wants you to look straight…

By His Stripes I’m Healed

Twenty-One Days to Discover That God Cures “In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a message was revealed to Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar, and the message was true and one of great conflict. And he understood the message and had understanding of the vision. In those days I, Daniel, was mourning three full weeks. I ate no tasty food, no meat or wine entered my mouth, nor did I anoint myself at all until three whole…

We all experience fear in one way or another. Perhaps you wake in the early hours of the morning remembering that you have a pile of bills waiting to be paid and an empty bank account. Or maybe you don’t sleep much at all because every noise you hear reminds you of the time your home was broken into. Sometimes we fear what is to come – an illness, the death of a loved one, being alone. There is also…

Living Free

Prayer: God, I ask that you would give me peace through the suffering I endure. I thank you that even though life may come crashing down on all sides, I have your uplifting hand sustaining me. I recognize that I will never fully understand how you work, so increase my trust in you. I ask that even if life doesn’t turn out the way I plan, I would recognize and trust in your power and plan.

Encourage Yourself in the Lord

You Have A Choice Everyone needs encouragement in their lives. Encouragement infuses hope and strength when life gets tough. But, as you grow and mature in your walk with the Lord, you will realize that sometimes there is no one available to encourage you because everyone around you seems to be dealing with their own crisis. It looks like the world is so self-consumed that encouragement to others is scarce now.  The pressures and busyness of life leave little room…

Hold On!!!

Yaaaaaay!!! The last day of the year is finally here I’m really grateful for a lot of things. I know we are ready to hear ‘2019 is your year’ Let’s not get so used to that phrase and forget that it could actually be.  2018 has taught me something remarkable. I learnt the hard way how you can be so close to achieving something you really want but if it’s not meant for you, no magic can change that.  Does…

Make Prayer a Priority

  Prayer is the breath of Christian life. It is real communication to our maker. It doesn’t have to take a particular form. When we pray, we should do that wholeheartedly and not think about if our prayers would be answered or not.  Sometimes when we speak to God, doubt creeps in. Thoughts like: “what if I am asking for too much?”, “will God hear me? This person died from this same sickness”, “will God forgive my past sins and…
