Making Provisions Ready Before Creating Man
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
