True Worship Is From The Heart You had to notice him every time he was in church. He sat in front, and he was always excited. He danced like crazy to every music and screamed back at the pastor every time. Many of those times, he was considered a distraction by many congregants. Did he not know that others had a right to worship too? As if he held them back from expressing their worship. Someone e...

Esther’s heritage was of the tribe of Benjamin who happened to be the last son of Jacob, the son of Isaac, the son of Abraham the father of the Israelite race. King Saul, first king of Israel, King Saul, was also a Benjaminite. She was amongst the Jews who did not return to Jerusalem. It was not up to her, she was still under the guardianship of her older cousin, Mordecai. Life threw her a curve b...

My name is Michal, the younger daughter of King Saul of Israel. There is this young man, my father, the King, just employed. The guy is very handsome. He is kind of cool and to think he even plays the harp! I think I like him. He is so cute only problem is, my father promised to give him my sister. Sometimes being the younger one is not fun. You get to be the last to choose. Daddy's servants told...

A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies. Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value. She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life. She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands. She is like the merchant ships, bringing her food from afar. She gets up while it is still night; she provides food for her family and portions for...

When You Gather What do we do when we gather together in church? What should we do when we are together? What does the bible recommend? What is it then, brothers? When you come together, each one of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a revelation, has another language, has an interpretation. Let all things be done to build each other up. If any man speaks in another language, let it be two, or a...

Lessons On The Way Driving on the freeway, there are loads of signs. Some billboards spread across the whole freeway, some are just barely legible. Some you see clearly from afar, for some you must slow down to make out what has been written. Life talks daily. Some days the sound is so loud a deaf man can hear. Other days, you could barely hear the whisper. Yet, you need to hear all that speech to...

My Grace Is Sufficient …or because of these surpassingly great revelations. Therefore, in order to keep me from becoming conceited, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly...

Go In This Thy Might…A Look 
At Gideon's Life. The Israelites did evil in the eyes of the LORD, and for seven years he gave them into the hands of the Midianites. Because the power of Midian was so oppressive, the Israelites prepared shelters for themselves in mountain clefts, caves and strongholds. Whenever the Israelites planted their crops, the Midianites, Amalekites and other eastern peoples i...

Iron Gate and The Wooden Door-Peter’s Gate And Rhoda’s Door The title of a sermon I heard preached by a reverend gentleman over thirty years ago. The message touched the core of my being then and has kept finding its way to the fore time and time again in my life. Have you ever seen yourself in situations where God had moved and those who should know would not budge or they out rightly disapprove?...

Be strong:" Two words we will hear at some point in our sojourn in life. Words that in themselves embody communication that goes beyond the surface. It does not matter what situation of life placed a demand on the strength stored within. When there is a pull for strength, it is most likely life presenting us with opportunities to stretch and unleash new levels of growth and development. The proces...

Ancient Words.....Michael W. Smith. Take words with you and return to the Lord. Say to him: “Forgive 
all our sins and receive us graciously, that we may offer 
the fruit of our lips (Hosea 14:2) Dave: Good morning Baba, I am here again and this time I have a lot to say. You know it is the beginning of another year, I have written my goals and I know you will grant them. BABA: I thought you learnt...

One Thing Is Needful: The Power 
Of Focusing On The Major Deal Ever found yourself swarmed by activities that centre on Jesus but have your inner self feeling disconnected? Have you ever felt the helplessness of knowing something ought to be done, and you do not have a grip on that one thing? Jesus was the subject of the gathering. He was the major deal; many people were there and that for various...

Provoked To Destiny Our culture only considered you fruitful or worthy of any honour when you have children. I didn't have any, even though I had been married for several years; long enough for my husband’s younger wife to have sons and daughters. I shall not tell you exactly how many years that was, just know they are many. I am sure you already figured out how many years I must have been barren?...

O Jacob, how can you say the LORD does not see your troubles? O Israel, how can you say God ignores your rights? Have you never heard? Have you never understood? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of all the earth. He never grows weak or weary. No one can measure the depths of his understanding. He gives power to the weak and strength to the powerless. Even youths will become weak and ti...

WHEN GREATNESS MEETS PREPARATION The patriarch needed to ensure his boys were all right on the battlefield. He had some nudging that he did not quite understand how to interpret them. He knew God was about to do something that involved his household. He could not quite place it, so he decided to ask after his boys. That was the least he could do under the circumstances. He sent another boy, the yo...

Mother love I came out dirty You drew me bosom close Smothered with warmth Kisses and songs I came out crying With your joy Sorrow doors slammed shut Gentle words, earths welcome Your eyes my first, Your hands, my blanket your voice my rhythm your care my comfort Indescribable love with you, my beauty defined you believed, no wrong in me with your push, the world mine is Always beside me No compla...

Light, Light And More Light!!! In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. God called the light “day,” and the darkness...

Saul Defeats the Amalekites One day Samuel said to Saul, “It was the LORD who told me to anoint you as king of his people, Israel. Now listen to this message from the LORD! This is what the LORD of Heaven’s Armies has declared: I have decided to settle accounts with the nation of Amalek for opposing Israel when they came from Egypt. Now go and completely destroy the entire Amalekite nation—men, wo...

The sign read; “Beware, Land Mines on site.” I walked gingerly on. I knew I was on the right path. My guide made sure I understood the instructions, and I promised I would be careful to read the signposts and obey them to the letter. It was getting dark, and even though I had my camp light, it was nothing compared to daylight. My guide warned me not to presume I knew what I was doing as the site c...

All the believers devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching, and to fellowship, and to sharing in meals (including the Lord’s Supper), and to prayer. A deep sense of awe came over them all, and the apostles performed many miraculous signs and wonders. And all the believers met together in one place and shared everything they had. They sold their property and possessions and shared the money wit...

Stay generous, and no door of goodwill shut against you. Before I go, let me tell you a little story. Notice that we have never run out of foodstuff in the house. There is a back end to that; when I was much younger, I used to share my food with one destitute older woman that lived not too far away from our house. I saw she lived alone and she was old. So, I would deliberately ask for a large port...

Hello son, I trust that you are well. Through the years, I have watched you become a man of courage. I watched you my little bow-legged one become a fine gentleman. You always held a promise, but never in a million years could I have imagined where God would take you. You never cease to amaze me. You know, thinking back to when you were a little lad, I praise our God for His mercies in all our liv...

What I have to say to you today would interest you much. It is of utmost importance, and it will benefit you if you give it the attention it deserves. Treat it like your life depends on it because, in truth, it does. Please give me your rapt attention and remember my words. If you set your heart to wisdom, life will come cheaply to you. You will glide through, and the world will wonder what stuff...
