In God’s Time
Jehovah is neither slow nor forgetful as many thinks. His time is unpredictable, consequently making people think that the Lord is no longer responding to prayers. When He steps in, everything changed. Those who think they can continue to damage others often discovered their powers are useless because God makes a mockery of them. Likewise,Continue reading “In God’s Time”
Balaam of our Time
Balak, the king of Moab, knew the kind of a prophet Balaam was. The latter loves money and fame. For Balaam, It was all about belly for the food, food for the belly. The more Balak increased the payroll, the more intense Balaam’s desire to became to go and curse the Israelites. So, Balaam keptContinue reading “Balaam of our Time”
Has anything changed?
What is it like being in someone else’s shoes? I guess the time has now come for many to see how privileged they are and how others around them are not. The pandemic may be over for some. However, this is the moment that majority of people are going to bear the brunt. Can weContinue reading “Has anything changed?”
Those Who Hurts Others
When people hurt others, they are not aware that there is always a paybac day. The story of Joseph is a perfect example. Despite living in wealth, his brothers were afraid of him. There is no doubt they did keep their guard even when he assured them, as mentioned in the above verse. Is thereContinue reading “Those Who Hurts Others”
Christians Who Know Too Much
The government of all respective nations seems to have enough information about the ongoing health crisis than we do. This is why they imposed lockdowns and the continuing imposition on everyone to wear masks and maintain social distancing. But it bothers me when I see people failing to obey these instructions. At the stores, onContinue reading “Christians Who Know Too Much”
How Not to be a Parent
In Human Nature and the Social Order (1902:80), Charles Horton Cooley asserts, “It is not at all uncommon to wrong one person out of affection for another.” Being a parent is one thing, and being a good parent is another. Rebekah was both. Her actions cause total disasters in the lives of her children. LovingContinue reading “How Not to be a Parent”

We had the sun today. At least, for the past few days, the weather has been generous to the extent that the talk of switching off the heaters seems to be on everybody’s lips. With the sunshine comes out the decisive question about how to continue using the masks. Anyone wearing an N95 or theContinue reading “Who is my neighbour?”
Why Christ is All You Need
Many times I heard some people say, “if people were like God, this world would have been a mess.” They are not far from the truth. Already, the world is unhealthy, and for humans to take the place of the Almighty would be a further disaster. The current pandemic has shown the heart of manContinue reading “Why Christ is All You Need”
Christ, Our First & Last Hope
Hope becomes essential in a time like this. It is this hope we hold on to when we clapped for health workers. It is the same hope that brings smiles to our faces after having spent our nights in peace. The same faith keeps us going, especially now that the level of uncertainty is skyrocketingContinue reading “Christ, Our First & Last Hope”
Those who follow the lead
The Short-Term Christian
As the lockdown is coming to an end or already did in your country, is God still your ultimate priority? Or did you just need Him then to help you wade through the confinement?
Four Ways to Total Deliverance
1. O God, who declares me innocent. (Psalms 35). His name is Yahweh. He decides who is faithful or not to Him because He alone knows the heart of men and women. 2. Free me from my troubles. (Psalms 27 & 116). Jehovah, the deliverer. Jesus Christ, our Saviour. Jehovah Elohim. The King of kings,Continue reading “Four Ways to Total Deliverance”
