In a time of great spiritual darkness, the prophetic voice of the LORD brings light. Elijah speaks forth the challenge. How long will you continue to walk the divided road of both good and evil?

The battle begins… As you li...

Let me ask you a riddle. What is it? People strive for it. They go to great lengths to acquire it. If they seize it they become trapped in the fear of losing it. Absoluteness of it exposes the deception of the heart. What is it? Power. Pharaoh had placed himself in a position of ultimate power. He claimed to be the son of their gods. The whole nation believed in the power of pharaoh and their gods...

God declares, ‘Let me sing a song to My well-beloved.' A people whom He chose to be His light to other nations.

Yet there is always a remnant. Individuals who chose to give their total allegiance to Him. So to...

Jesus knows His time has come to leave this world and return to God the Father. He will carry the full force of human brokenness, depravity and shame. Suffer public humiliation, torture and pain. From a city that days earlier hailed Him as King, He will be cast out. With all this before Him, He turned His attentions towards those who are with Him. He knows one will betray Him, one will deny Him, o...

Paul in the joy of the Lord, enjoins with the will of God and prays. He makes request for the saints in Philippi.

The same for us today. Together in prayer, praise and power, we participate in the gospel. As you listen be...

Jesus promised that on the revelation of who He is He will build His church and the gates of hell shall not prevail. This was not only a promise but a declaration of what will take place.

Jesus brings HIs strength, courage and victory into the situation a...

It cannot escape death, nor change the darkest depths of the heart. Disc...

Discover Jesus’ answer and enter into God’s rest. A place of trust, surrender a...

When you know someone will betray you and bear false witness against you, what is your response? Hurt? Anger? Offence? But God, knowing all this about humanity, declares once again a blessing over a rebellious people. Why? God wants to bless because He so loves. The blessing that God gives to another is an act of adoration. Let us go back to a time when God spoke to Moses saying, speak to Aaron an...
