Soul Talks with PB

Last week, we talked about how you can see God’s dream for you right where you are. You just need to open your eyes and pay attention to God as He lays a burden in your heart. But what do you do when you have the seed of God’s dream or vision in your heart? You need to learn how to serve with a team instead of doing it all by yourself. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/po...

We must pay attention to the quality of our experience with God especially when we draw near to Him in prayer. Normally, we should experience consolation, not desolation, when we are in God's presence. But when there is spiritual dryness, we must examine the reasons. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soultalkswithpb/message Hosted on Acast.

Having the correct view of God and success are foundational matters. They prepare you to be a dreamer and a doer. But you cannot be an ordinary dreamer. You cannot just dream about anything and then do it yourself. You need to see God's dream for you and pursue it by faith. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soultalkswithpb/message Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/p...

Prayer is not just what we do every now and then. It is the essence of our relationship with God. The quality of our prayer lives is a reflection of the depth of our relationship with God. Neglecting prayer is tantamount to neglecting our relationship with God. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soultalkswithpb/message Hosted on Acast.

Is it wrong to aim for success in life? Is it wrong to be ambitious? Some people feel guilty about this. Others, of course, couldn't care less. They want to be successful in life no matter what. That's why personal ambitions drive them. But can we aim for success without compromising our faith? Can we be ambitious and still retain our commitment to Christ? What a lot of people don't know is that t...

Why is it that some of us are bored? We are barely holding on to each day, hoping we will survive every working day, doing what we can to make our lives a little more interesting every now and then. Sometimes life can be exciting but only for a short while. Soon the realities will come rushing back into our minds and hearts discouraging and boring us once again. "What's the use?" we say to ourselv...

We sometimes find ourselves in need. Either we are being harassed by evil people or we are in situations where we don't know what to do or how to get out. During such times, we can come to God and ask for help. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soultalkswithpb/message Hosted on Acast.

The kingdom of God is the central message of Jesus. Salvation in His name cannot be separated from this reality. To be saved is to actually enter into God's kingdom through faith in Jesus Christ. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soultalkswithpb/message Hosted on Acast.

Some believers do not share the gospel because they don't think their friends or loved ones actually need it. Observing their lives, they conclude that these people are actually doing alright even without the gospel, so why bother them? --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soultalkswithpb/message Hosted on Acast.

Everything that we do in the Christian life must be the result of gratitude to Jesus. Without gratitude, we will always struggle with obeying and serving Jesus in whatever area of our lives. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soultalkswithpb/message Hosted on Acast.

Sometimes evil people will hurt you personally. They will do wrong things either to you or to the people you love, and it will hurt you badly. How do you respond? It's tempting to hurt them back, to make them suffer for what they have done. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soultalkswithpb/message Hosted on Acast.

As followers of Christ, we will face the problems of sin, relational difficulties, fears and doubts, and obedience issues in our daily lives. They are inevitable. But if we are resilient, we can overcome them all by the grace of God. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soultalkswithpb/message Hosted on Acast.

We all sin. It would be safe to say that most of us feel sorry whenever we sin. But not all of us know how to truly repent. That makes all the difference. Without true repentance, we cannot experience true acceptance from God. God wants to forgive us, but sometimes we don't want to repent. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soultalkswithpb/message Hosted on Acast....

Worship is central to our commitment as followers of Christ. But most of the time we see worship as merely an experience. Therefore, we judge it as excellent or boring, depending on the quality of the program. It is not focused on God. Instead, our focus is on ourselves, and how we feel while worshiping. We need to understand the principles of true worship. --- Send in a voice message: https://pod...

A lot of people today are rejecting the Gospel for various reasons. What they don't realize is that time is running out. The Lord wants them to consider carefully how they are responding because His warnings are real. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soultalkswithpb/message Hosted on Acast.

We all have the tendency to admire wealthy people. Deep inside our hearts, we wonder if we can be like them. Social media tend to glamorize these people making them really attractive and admirable. Sometimes, as ordinary people, we tend to envy them. But what does God's word say about wealth? --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soultalkswithpb/message Hosted on Aca...

The good news of the kingdom of God is being proclaimed today and everyone is being invited to believe in Jesus so that they can enter into it. But not everyone is willing. They know it would involve some radical changes in their lives and they are not willing to do that. We need to understand what is hindering them. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soultalkswit...

This psalm is about Mount Zion. Since we are not Jews and we don't have the historical background to appreciate what Mount Zion meant, we may not fully grasp the full implication of this psalm. But the early church understood what Mount Zion symbolized. It symbolized the presence of God which is now made accessible through Jesus (see Hebrews 12:22-24). --- Send in a voice message: https://podcaste...

The way we handle money reveals our true values. We need to be wise in this area. Some believers lose their way because of their love for money. They pierce their hearts with many sorrows because they fail to handle money in a way that is glorifying to God. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soultalkswithpb/message Hosted on Acast.

Often we only think about worship on Sundays. We fail to see the necessity of praising God at all times and in all situations. We must learn to acknowledge Him as our King, not just on weekends but each and every day of our lives. In other words, we must learn to praise Him as our King regardless of our situation. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soultalkswithpb...

Leadership is all about managing one's credibility to influence others for the common good to the glory of God. We are all uniquely placed by God in various places to influence others. We are all saved to lead. Therefore, all of us have the potential to practice leadership. Unfortunately, not all of us are doing this right now. As a result, we're not doing the good works we're supposed to do to gl...

There are many things in this world that can terrify us. We feel so small and helpless in the face of so many overwhelming dangers. How can we live in this world with courage and confidence? Thankfully, we have our God who sustains and protects us. But we need to understand the basis of our confidence in God. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soultalkswithpb/mess...
