Whoever wants to be great must be the servant of others.

John‬ ‭4:34 MSG‬‬ says “Jesus said, “The food that keeps me going is that I do the will of the One who sent me, finishing the work he started.

“For it is Christ’s love that fuels our passion and motivates us,’ 2 Corinthians‬ ‭5:14‬ ‭TPT‬‬ What’s your motivation?

What is that thing that drives you and gets you up everyday to do what you do? Or are you feeling discouraged and not motivated to do anything? You’re not alone.

Psalms‬ ‭20:7‬ ‭CEV‬‬ says “Some people trust the power of chariots or horses, but we trust you, Lord God.” So how do we get to put our trust in God?

The world around us has it’s way of doing things which is most often not in line with God’s word or His ways. Unfortunately we find ourselves trusting in the word’s way rather than in God’s ways.

Proverbs‬ ‭23:4-5‬ ‭ICB‬‬ gives us some great advice. It says: “Don’t wear yourself out trying to get rich. Be wise enough to control yourself. Wealth can vanish in the wink of an eye. It seems to grow wings and fly away like an eagle in the sky.”

“Psalms‬ ‭146:3-4‬ ‭TPT‬ ‘We can never look to men for help; no matter who they are, they can’t save us, for even our great leaders fail and fall. They too are just mortals who will one day die. ‭‭‬

Every year, many of us start off making resolutions and plans for ourselves. But many of those plans are based on the trust that we have in certain things that we believe will help us achieve the things we’ve planned out. However, there are certain things that we can’t afford to put our trust in because they will fail us. Let’s find out what some of those things are this week.

It’s so easy to have faith in people and the things around us by it’s very difficult for many people to have faith in God!

We’ve started another year with lockdowns and restrictions and all we hear about is the covid19 pandemic and it’s easy to despair and to get distracted with all of that. However, Jesus advices us to ‘watch and pray’.

We need to have the knowledge of God if we want to have a very successful year. Now you may be thinking ‘what does the knowledge of God have to do with me being successful or achieving my goals for the year?’

Welcome to a brand New Year! God has a lot planned for us this year but to achieve them, we need to follow His advice. So what advice is God giving us?

Raising the child of the Almighty God is the most intimidating job that I can ever imagine! But Joseph and Mary pulled it off.

Many people trivialise Joseph’s role in the birth of Jesus and they don’t realise that Joseph was very crucial to Jesus’s survival. So what role did Joseph play?

Elizabeth was sent into Mary’s life for a reason. What was it?

Every king is preceded by a herald so when the king of kings and the Lord of Lords was coming to the earth, He had to have a forerunner.

There were so many virgins in the world at the time when Jesus was to come to the earth but out of the hundreds of thousands of virgins at that time, God chose Mary! Why did God chose Mary for this very important assignment of bringing our Savior Jesus Christ into the world?

Simeon and Anna were two people who were eagerly watching and praying for God’s promise to be fulfilled. We should all join their team!
