Not Enough

Not Enough

NOT ENOUGH   Wednesday 4th January 2023   ‘And he spake a parable unto them to this end , that men ought always to pray, and not to faint; ‘ Luke 18:1   On a certain day, Jesus taught the people why it was so important to pray always. What he said can basically be summarised as, ‘Prayer is never enough’.   Sometimes, we feel we have prayed so much that it’s definitely enough now, and we need can take a break, or even a vacation, from prayer.   However, the Bible tells us in 1 Peter 5:8 – ‘Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: ‘   The devil never rests ... »

What Are Your Acts

What Are Your Acts

WHAT ARE YOUR ACTS   Tuesday 3rd January 2023   ‘Therefore those who were scattered went everywhere preaching the word. Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria and preached Christ to them. ‘ Acts 8:4-5   The book of Acts is an account of the start of the Church after the death and resurrection of Jesus. It records what the early apostles did after the Lord spoke to them, then ascended into heaven. Note that just like us, they never saw him physically again, but received the promise of the Holy Spirit.   The general belief is that we are in a situation very different from that of the Apostles who were inspired to preach the Gospel after Christ’s resurrecti... »

Distractions and Fulfilling Your Destiny

Distractions and Fulfilling Your Destiny

DISTRACTIONS AND FULFILLING YOUR DESTINY   Monday 2nd January 2023   “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things, but one thing is necessary. Mary has chosen the good portion, which will not be taken away from her.” Luke 10:42   One of the devil’s most important messengers is distraction.   Every human being, both good and bad, was made in heaven by God, and sent to the earth for a reason. Once they get here, the devil’s most important goal is to distract them from the reason they were made and sent to the earth in the first place, and take up their time with something which is unnecessary at best, or evil at worst.   This is why we see distract... »

As He Is, So We Are

As He Is, So We Are

AS HE IS, SO WE ARE Friday 29th December 2022   ‘Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgement; because as He is, so are we in this world. ‘ 1 John 4:17   The Bible tells us that as Jesus is, so we are in this world. It also tells us our destiny is to be in the image of Jesus, the Son of God:   Romans 8:29-30 ‘For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.   As our theme verse says, as Jesus is, so are we in this world.   This is amazing, but it is what being a Son of God means. We have watered down the meaning of th... »

Get More of His Grace

Get More of His Grace

GET MORE OF HIS GRACE Thursday 28th December 2022   But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. James 1:22   A lot of times, people want to walk in more of the grace of God, want to hear better from God, or want more miracles and answers to prayer in their lives.   The truth is, these things are available to each and every one of us.   In our anchor text, the Bible tells us to be doers of the Word, and not just hearers, and it gives the reason why in verse 25 of the same chapter:   James 1:25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, THIS MAN SHALL B... »
