Never shun God’s instruction to do big things. Only ask for resources. There is no vision God hasn’t made provision for. In the case of Adam, he came to meet it. In our case, we need to ask Him for it.
It’s through renewing your mind with God’s Word that you can be empowered to live above the dictates of the sinful flesh. Therefore, those who follow Jesus will have the light of eternal life (see John 8:12), enabling them to view things from a spiritually discerning perspective rather than submitting to pleasing fleshly desires.
In 1 John 1:1-4, Apostle John explained that Jesus was from the beginning, confirming the truth that Jesus existed long before He appeared on earth as God’s incarnate Word. John directly heard Jesus speak, saw Him, looked upon Him and touched Him. Jesus is indeed the Word of life.
Like new-age general activities such as football AI, these things were not captured directly in scripture. As a result, it has left many believers wondering what the Bible says about the use of AI. Can Christians use AI for doing ministerial work? Let’s delve deeper.
Do you know that God’s Word is received as a seed? Seeds don’t grow until they are planted in good soil and also provided all the necessities needed for them to germinate well. With this in view, know that it takes some work to see God’s Word manifest in a believer’s life.
As scripture says in Galatians 6:9, you need not grow weary of doing good. That means you must aim high and be consistent with your streaks for doing good. But that also means that there is a lot of opposition on that path of life, some coming from people you never imagined could misbehave towards you.
If you have been in church for quite a while, you may have come across the statement, “Obedience is better than sacrifice”. Well, what does it mean to you as a Christian? Delve deeper today.
God made Adam a living soul because He knew it would be subject to corruption due to sin. If He had made him a life-giving Spirit (which He has for everyone who accepts Jesus as Lord and personal Saviour – see 1 Corinthians 15:45), Adam and Eve’s fall would have been eternally incorrigible. And that would have been very, very dangerous. Imagine not being able to correct a mistake you made for life. How bad will it be?
If a relationship is built on shared faith, humility before God, and a desire to follow Christ faithfully, it will stand on a foundation that is far stronger than any temporary attraction.
Since believers in Christ are looking forward to the second coming of Christ (see 2 Peter 3:12-13), there are things we can do to prepare ourselves towards that. That is, being steadfast in the Lord so we can diligently live according to His dictates in peace, without spot and blameless. From this, it’s pretty clear there’s no space for funfaring when it comes to living by the principles of God. You need to be vigilant and give no space for the devil.
God wants us to stir up one another to love and good works. So, there is a stirring to make among ourselves as believers. That work is not dependent on only you but also on others. You have a part to play, and I also have.
Since all the things in the Earth and Earth itself will be dissolved on the second coming of Jesus Christ, there is a clarion call on each believer to be in holy conduct and godliness.
God rested from all His work, which he had done on the seventh day. You may say, but God has no limit to His strength. Yes, that’s true. So, the reason why He rested on the seventh day was not because of tiredness. Instead, it was to reflect on the labour He put into rebuilding the world after it was first destroyed with water. That revelation carries the principle of rest and leave from work, be it in ministry or corporate environment.
God has loaded you with more seeds than you can ever imagine. The ideas are seeds, and the creative thinking is also a seed. Whatever skill you have, even if it’s poor in first-hand use, is a seed inside you. And to be fruitful with it, you must place all of them to work, usually harnessing one or two to the best at a time in season.
Your human calculations of how God works will never be able to predict all of God’s doings in your life accurately. Some of the things you pray for may take longer than you imagined. Other times, God may fulfill a promise He made to you quite faster than you can imagine. Don’t limit God by your human calculations.
God is saying that you must make it your ambition to lead a quiet life. That means self-leadership is a necessity in Christ. Many people, when discussing leadership, often refer to leading others rather than themselves. But you cannot effectively lead others if you don’t learn how to lead yourself well.
Do not forget that God’s Word remains true despite the changing things in the world. If you ever lose consciousness of this, at least remind yourself how old the Bible is, yet it has never faded or lost impact.
You must not forget that your real value is known best by God. No amount of salary a company gives you will be worth that value. So, work with all your heart because that work will make you better at what you do, which you can use as an experience to upgrade your career.
