  And when He had made an end of speaking with him on Mount Sinai, He gave Moses two tablets of the Testimony, tablets of stone, written with the finger of God’ Exodus 31:18. We can all see through this passage that God has written the commandments by His own finger, which shows us how important it is. The command of God is meant to help us live in harmony with Him and live in peace with ourselves on earth. The psalmist says ‘Your word I have hidden in my heart, That I might not sin against You’ Psalms 119:11 Also verses 14-16 says ‘I have rejoiced in your laws as much as in riches. I will study your commandments and reflect on your ways. I will delight in your decrees and not forget your word’. Keeping the commandments of God comes with many benefits some are found in Psalm 119:97-100 ‘Oh, how I love your instructions! I think about them all day long. Your commands make me wiser than my enemies, for they are my constant guide. Yes, I have more insight than my teachers, for I am al...

  ‘So Moses and Aaron did just as the lord had commanded them. When Aaron raised his hand and struck the ground with his staff, gnats infested the entire land, covering the Egyptians and their animals. All the dust in the land of Egypt turned into gnats.Pharaoh’s magicians tried to do the same thing with their secret arts, but this time they failed. And the gnats covered everyone, people and animals alike.“This is the finger of God!” the magicians exclaimed to Pharaoh. But Pharaoh’s heart remained hard. He wouldn’t listen to them, just as the lord had predicted’ Exodus   8:17-19. After being unable to duplicate it, the magician acknowledged it as the finger of God. This is a discussion about divine intervention. Remember Peter who toilled all night and Jesus Christ ordered him to cast his net in the early hours of the day, and he got a net-breaking miracle ( Luke 5:4-7 ). Also, in the middle of the sea, God threw the host of Egyptians into chaos when He twisted their chariot w...

 I was reading about the victims of the event where all 67 people aboard an American Eagle flight from Kansas and an Army helicopter were killed in a collision over the Potomac River near Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport on Wednesday, January 29. Among those are children with great futures, wonderful families, one just engaged to be married, and one just promoted in their job. Before the unimaginable happened, a passenger called her partner and assured her that he would meet her in a few minutes.  You may be joking about it or taking it not seriously when you hear about the second coming of the Lord, or saying that Jesus can't come now. What happens if death comes? Where will you spend eternity? Heaven or a lake of fire? The Scripture says in Hebrew 9:27 'And just as each person is destined to die once and after that comes judgment’. I am not attempting to frighten you, but I want to inform you that what will happen to you in the next minute is unknown. If you do not ...

In the Book of Judges, Jephtah promised the Lord that if God gave him victory in the war against the king of the Ammonites, he would give whatever first came out of his household to God.  God gave him the victory, but lo and behold, when he got back home, the first person who came to welcome him was his daughter and his only child. When he saw her, he tore his clothes and cried, 'Oh no, my daughter!' You have brought me down, and I am devastated. I have made a vow to the Lord that I cannot break. ” ( Judges 11 ) Instead of negotiating with God, Jephtah chose to fulfill his vow, which was not without its difficulties. There are many of us who have made vows to the Lord or promised to our friends and family members, but we have failed to keep them because we consider it unfeasible and just ignore them. The psalmist says that one of those who can abide in the Lord's presence are those who swear to their own hurt and do not change ( Psalm 15:4 ). Our goal for the new year and b...

  ‘Then the Lord turned to him and said, “Go with the strength you have, and rescue Israel from the Midianites. I am sending you!”“But Lord,” Gideon replied, “how can I rescue Israel? My clan is the weakest in the whole tribe of Manasseh, and I am the least in my entire family!” Judges 6:14-15. Most of us are asking the same question as Gideon: How can I do exploits when I am so small and limited in power? How can I make an impact when I have a poor background? It's important for you to recognize that with God by your side, anything is possible. All you just have to do is to be willing, obedient, and trust in Almighty God, for without Him you can do nothing ( John 15:5 ). Even four lepers were used to put a host of army into flight and put an end to the famine in Samaria ( 2 Kings 7:1-20 ), just because they took that bold step. Don't belittle yourself, your family background, or the resources at your disposal this year. Just believe in God, be obedient, have confidence in your...

  In the speech of President Donald Trump after being sworn in as the 47th President of the United States, he said that he believed that God saved his life to make America great again. It's worth remembering that On July 13, 2024,  Donald Trump , survived an  assassination attempt  while speaking at an open-air campaign rally near  Butler, Pennsylvania . Trump was shot and wounded in his upper right ear   by  Thomas Matthew Crooks , a 20-year-old man from  Bethel Park, Pennsylvania ,   who fired eight rounds from an  AR-15–style rifle  from the roof of a nearby building.  Several of us have been saved from accidents and events that killed others. Some have shared their testimony in religious gatherings and social media, but have not inquired with God about why they were preserved. Moses was born during the time when the Hebrew newborn baby boys were being killed in Egypt, but he was miraculously saved and raised in the palace o...
