sowing and reaping

Sowing and Reaping – the Secret of Success

Wednesday 22nd February 2023   ‘While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.’ Genesis 8:22   The Word says seedtime and harvest (sowing and reaping) shall not cease on the earth.   The things we do in life are seeds. Most blessings that we receive in our lives are harvests from our seeds.   Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. Galatians 6:7   If you want a harvest of blessings, you have to sow seeds of acting on His Word. Good seeds of obedience to God’s Word, acts of helping others out of selfless love, etc, produce harves... »

what is your focus

What is your Focus?

Tuesday 21st February 2023   ‘Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise, making the most of your time, because the days are evil. ‘ Ephesians 5:15-16 NASB   The Bible says we should be careful how we walk, or live: not unwisely but wisely, making the most, or best, use of your time.   Making the most or best use of our time suggests productivity. It suggests not using our time on less productive activities.   In the parable of talents (Matthew 25:14-30), the Master took his resources (his talents) from the less productive servants, and gave them to the more productive one. This is an instruction from the Lord Jesus. It is teaching us to... »

Prayer is so Important

Monday 20th February 2023   And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint. Luke 18:1   When we receive the word for the new year, or for the new month in our local assembly, we are usually excited and happy for what is going to happen for us in the year, or in the month.   However, it is important for us to know that when the Lord speaks to us, He is a God of faith, so He speaks in faith, believing that we are going to do His Word. His Word says men ought always to pray, and not to faint. In other words, His promise is predicated on us doing His Word by prayer and studying and speaking the Word.   We have gone through year... »

In the Name of the Lord Jesus

In the Name of the Lord Jesus

Friday 17th February 2023   Col 3:17 And everything, whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus…   The Word of God enjoins us to do everything we do in the Name of the Lord Jesus.   But what does this mean?   It means to base all we do on a recognition of Jesus’ love for us, and as a response to that love. It means to do everything out of a need to share and to show His love to others in the world. It means to do everything out of a recognition of the truth of His Word, and His help and power in our lives.. It means to do everything out of obedience to the Master.   Doing all we do in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ is actu... »

Be Strong in the Lord: Be Courageous

Thursday 16th February 2023   Proverbs 4:25 Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee.   It is important that we be strong & focused in our walk with God.   When the devil sees us going somewhere in life, his next plan is to come against us to try his best to discourage and distract us. This is the major tool of the devil!   When God’s angels appeared to anointed men in the Bible, what they were told most of the time was to be STRONG (Deuteronomy 31:6, Joshua 1:7,9). This is because it takes strength and focus to obtain the promises of God.   What type of strength is this? This type of strength is full of patience, perse... »
