ON “CONSEQUENCES”

ON “CONSEQUENCES”

A pastor who went to prison for a fraudulent Gift Aid claim once said, and I quote: “I think I’m quicker to confess, rather than make excuses. I’ve made a mistake, and I hope anybody who has made a mistake realises – like I have done – [that] there is life after. You can make a mistake – you are a human being – but it’s how you deal with it. By the grace of God, I made it through….

ON “QUOTES OF THE DAY”

1. “The Lord will open to you his good treasury, the heavens, to give the rain to your land in its season and to bless all the work of your hands. And you shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow.” 2 “A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children, but the sinner’s wealth is laid up for the righteous. Wealth gained hastily will dwindle, but whoever gathers little by little will increase it.” 3 “For…

ON “WEALTH CREATION

ON “WEALTH CREATION

Wealth creation and or innovation is a divine gift, and God says that He is the one who gives the ability to create wealth (Deuteronomy 8:18). First, God says there is a risk that people will think and say that they themselves have made wealth, failing to acknowledge the Lord in it. Yes, the precursor to verse 18 remains worth note!

1. “Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, In all toil there is profit, but mere talk tends only to poverty.” 2 “Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might, for there is no work or thought or knowledge or wisdom in Sheol, to which you are going. Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.” 3…

ON “PRODUCTIVITY”

ON “PRODUCTIVITY”

Yes, we have been convened to be productive – not successful, not practical, not accomplished. Success comes from strength, stress, and human effort. Productivity comes from vulnerability and the admission of our shortcomings. Biblically, productivity means living for Jesus, bringing people to salvation, helping others, feeding people, listening to people’s struggles… ultimately, it means being Jesus to others because for some, you may be the closest they ever come to see Jesus. That’s it!!!

1. “Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need. I can do all things through him who strengthens me.” 2 “Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for…

ON “CONTENTMENT”

ON “CONTENTMENT”

Yes, contentment is all about having satisfying wealth! It’s a capacity to determine what is enough! Yes, contentment discerns what is enough. What is enough profit? Pay? Hours engaged? Conservations and or savings accumulated? House size? Possessions? Given that none of us has an accurate gauge on what is sufficient and excessive, we will need help from others. What would it be like for Christians to meet in small companies and or groups to share their purchasing plans and reflect…

ON “LOVED, SAVED, KEPT, AND KNOWN”

Amy Carmichael said: “Many have forgotten that unofficial witness-bearing used to be the chief way by which the good news went around the world. I tell you, and you believe and receive and tell someone else, and he tells others. Frank, vital telling in ordinary language that the Lord Jesus Christ lives and loves, can save and keep, and can be known as a real friend, and is a Master who gives real orders and strength to carry them out…
