TIME OF POWER

Yes, you need to gain a sufficiently adequate understanding of your situation in light of God’s provision for you! First Corinthians 2:6–16 describes the difference between human wisdom and God’s wisdom. Human wisdom is limited to what can be observed and worked out with human reasoning. The Scripture points out the value of reason and knowledge (Colossians 2:8; 2 Timothy 2:15) while demonstrating a difference between what the human’s mind can achieve and what God’s Spirit can reveal. God’s wisdom,…

Questions about setting goals remain a usual approach to understand that we are indeed organised! I use to say; goal setting is wise, prudent and biblical. When we apply Scripture verses to our goals, we always want to tread carefully because we need first to be sure that our goals align with God’s will for us. Our goals should not contract the Word and character of God. Meaning, all your goals must indeed be submitted to God’s will! There is a difference between…

Rainer Maria Rilke said: “To love is good, too: love being difficult. For one human being to love another: that is perhaps the most difficult of all our tasks, the ultimate, the last test and proof, the work for which all other work is but preparation.”

1. “And he looked around at them with anger, grieved at their hardness of heart, and said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out, and his hand was restored.” 2. “Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, and give no opportunity to the devil.” 3. “Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger; for the anger of…

John 2:13–23 describes Jesus driving corrupt businessmen from the temple. Selling sacrifices to travellers was not a problem. The sin was in gouging the people, focusing on money rather than serving God. Jesus is never depicted as out of control, but His anger is apparent. Oh yes, this is likely an early temple cleansing, and the other gospels record a second, separate cleansing. The Jewish authorities challenge Jesus’ authority. In typical Hebrew style, they demand a miraculous sign. Jesus instead…

Yes, Jesus was very much sending a message that God’s house is not a marketing place, that it is a house of prayer (“My house shall be called a house of prayer” – Matthew 21:12-13, Mark 11:11-18, John 2:13-16)! You should have direct knowledge of what Jesus Christ is saying to the Church today!  Those selling the doves and those animals to be sacrificed were supposed to be present in the house of prayers as worshippers needed those animals to sacrifice…

Eberhard Arnold said: “To those who are responsible in their consciences, the only thing that could justify withdrawing into their inner selves to escape today’s confusing, hectic whirl would be that their fruitfulness is enriched by it. It is a question of gaining within, through unity with the eternal powers, that strength of character which is ready to be tested in the stream of the world, the strength that alone can cope with the demands of this age. Not flight…
