Have you not heard that God’s Word is the sole custodian of God’s blessing? Here it is, “So then those who are of faith are blessed with believing Abraham.”(Galatians 3:9). That’s it! But to answer, why these? Remember, the Word of God has been settled in heaven to be the custodian of God’s Blessing. And the Blessing of God is a major determinant of the change level in human life. Therefore, to own the Word of God is to hold…
*1.* “The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.” *2* “David said to Gad, “I am in deep distress. Let us fall into the hands of the LORD, for his mercy is great; but do not let me fall into human hands.” *3* “Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility,…
You may have made mistakes and failed, as Peter did, but you have to learn to forgive yourself. When you forgive yourself and passionately seek God’s forgiveness, your mind is at rest, enjoying God’s Mercy. You will have to quit remembering what God has forgiven and forgotten. His mercy is bigger than any mistake you have made. God is saying, “Get back into the race. You can still do what I called you to do.” You can still thank God…
Here it is, “…but the angel said, “Don’t be alarmed. You are looking for Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He isn’t here! He is risen from the dead!… Now go and tell his disciples, including Peter, that Jesus is going ahead of you to Galilee.” (Mark 16:6–7, NLT). When Jesus was on trial before His crucifixion, Peter denied that he knew Jesus three times. Peter was so painfully disheartened in himself, ashamed of being a coward. Soon after that,…
*1.* “Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.” *2* “Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” *3* “For I, the Lord your God, hold your right hand; it is I who say to…
Have you heard the words “There’s no way” before? You may have situations that look like they’ll never work out. You don’t see how your business will make it, how your health will improve, or how your child will get back on course. If you only consider what you see, what you don’t have, or who’s against you, you’ll get discouraged and give up. Keep believing when you’re not seeing. Keep praising, keep giving thanks, keep declaring the promise, and…
Here it is, “Without weakening in his faith, he faced the fact that his body was as good as dead—since he was about a hundred years old—and that Sarah’s womb was also dead.” (Romans 4:19, NIV). Friend, when Abraham received God’s promise that he and Sarah would have a son, all the circumstances around him said, “Your body is dead, and so is Sarah’s womb. There’s no way. It’s never happened before.” But here’s the key: He wasn’t moved by…
*1.* “For a day in your courts is better than a thousand elsewhere. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of wickedness.” *2* “Show hospitality to one another without grumbling.” *3* “It is like a man going on a journey, when he leaves home and puts his servants in charge, each with his work, and commands the doorkeeper to stay awake.” *4* “To him the gatekeeper opens. The sheep hear…
God, who can overrule people and circumstances, cannot keep you from what He has purposed for you. God is the doorkeeper of your life. God will take you through or over, or around whatever stands in your way. Amen in Jesus’ Name. You keep honouring God, being at your best for His glory at all times, and He will get you to where you need to be. Trust His timing. Don’t be impatient because a door hasn’t opened yet. God…
Have you not heard that God is certainly your Doorkeeper? Here it is: “For by You I can run through a troop, and by my God I can leap over a wall.” (Psalm 18:29, AMPC). Door keeping is all about through, over, or around. Yes, through and over, or around. Friend, people can’t lock you out of your future. God is your doorkeeper—not your boss, not your banker, not your neighbour, not your critics, not your enemies. They may shut…
