HELP IS COMING

‘So Saul sent the messengers back to Jabesh-gilead to say, “We will rescue you by noontime tomorrow!” There was great joy throughout the town when that message arrived!’ 1 Samuel 11:9. When King Nahash of Ammon tried to humiliate the people of Jabesh-gilead by plucking out their right eye, Saul, the newly anointed King of Israel, sent this message to them ( 1 Samuel 11 ).  Are you going through any challenges or troubles that are weighing you down? Does it pertain to financial, health, physical, spiritual, or any other category? I'm writing to let you know that God is willing and available to assist you. The scripture says in Psalm 46:1 'God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble’. But you have to call on Him first, Matthew 7:7 says “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you’. Approach Him and ask, have confidence in Him, and permit Him to remove your shame. As the Scriptures tell us, “Anyone who...

LET REUBEN LIVE, AND NOT DIE

By -
Image
  “Let Reuben live, and not die, Nor let his men be few.” Deuteronomy 33:6. This decree is very important and necessary because Ruben, who was the first son of Jacob and one of the tribes of Israel, was cursed by his father because he had slept with one of his concubines. “Reuben, you are my firstborn, My  might and the beginning of my strength, The excellency of dignity and the excellency of power. Unstable as water, you shall not excel, Because you went up to your father’s bed; Then you defiled it—He went up to my couch’ Genesis 49:3-4. The curse was removed by God through Moses to prevent the Reuben tribe from drying up due to His mercy.  'Shall the prey be taken from the mighty, or the lawful captive delivered? But thus saith the Lord, Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, and the prey of the terrible shall be delivered: for I will contend with him that contendeth with thee, and I will save thy children’ Isaiah 49:24-25. Your actions could have made you...

HAVE HOPE AND NEVER GIVE UP

By -

 When Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors lost to the second-seed Houston Rockets in game six of the NBA 2024/2025 playoff series, tying the scores at 3-3, Canon, his son, was down in tears. However, Steph said, 'Hey, we still have a game on Sunday, buddy'. The Golden State Warriors advanced to the second round after winning 103-89 on Sunday.  Never give up and never say never, that's the spirit. The scripture says that the righteous may fall seven times, but they will rise up again ( Proverbs 24:16 ). In Judges 20 , the scripture states that the children of Israel were defeated three times before God gave them the victory in their fourth attempt against the tribe of Benjamin. God is always there for you when you trust and believe in Him, and you must also have the confidence that you can do it with God's help.  But the concluding part of Proverbs 24:16 says 'But one disaster is enough to overthrow the wicked. Are you a righteous person? Are you living a lif...

EVERYTHING WORKS TOGETHER FOR GOOD

  When Joseph's brothers were selling him to a merchant to kill his dream, the merchant sold him to Potiphar, who then put him in jail for committing no sin and the dreams of the baker and the butler were all about bringing God's purpose to life. Joseph addressing his brothers after their father’s death 'Then his brothers came and threw themselves down before Joseph. “Look, we are your slaves!” they said. But Joseph replied, “Don’t be afraid of me. Am I God, that I can punish you? You intended to harm me, but God intended it all for good. He brought me to this position so I could save the lives of many people’. Genesis 50:18-20. The Scriptures do not mention that Joseph held Potiphar and his wife accountable after he became prime minister of Egypt. God has good plans for everyone, and this He let us know in Jeremiah 29:11 . He is God. He always ensures the fulfillment of His word by monitoring it ( Jeremiah 1:12 ). Are the people against the destiny God has given you? Fight...

THE BENEFITS OF THE DEATH AND RESURRECTION OF JESUS CHRIST

By -
Image
God Almighty sent Jesus to come to earth and die for the sins of all men. This shows how much God loves us as His creation, and also how Jesus Christ was obedient to the Father even unto death, even though He is God in human form ( Philippians 2:8 ). The death of Him has brought us benefits: But Christ has rescued us from the curse pronounced by the law. When he was hung on the cross, he took upon himself the curse for our wrongdoing. For it is written in the Scriptures, “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.”  Galatians 3:13 (NLT). Generational, traditional, spiritual, physical, and curses, whether known or unknown, have been removed from us and we now inherit blessings. "But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed" Isaiah 53:5. No sickness can have power over us as we have been made whole. "And so, dear brothers and sisters, we can boldly enter heaven’s M...

GOD WILLDO ANYTHING FOR YOU

By -

  'Since he did not spare even his own Son but gave him up for us all, won’t he also give us everything else?'  Romans 8:31. We tend to assume that God won't do certain things for us, but I would like you to know that He will do anything for us because of His love for us. He was despised and rejected. A man of sorrows, acquainted with deepest grief, He carried our weakness and was weighed down by our sorrows ( Isaiah 53:3-4 ). If Christ endured all of that for us, wouldn't He do anything for us? 'For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through Christ’ 2 Corinthians 5:21. Jesus said in John 14:13-14 'And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything in My name, I will do it’. All you have to do is ask in faith and to the glory of God. Jesus came to die for everyone, including you. Accept Him today and never let His death on the cr...

DON’T WRITE YOURSELF OFF (GEORGE FOREMAN 1949-2025)

By -
Image
After 10 years away from the ring, Foreman made headlines in 1987 when he announced his comeback at the age of 38. He wrote in his autobiography that his main objective was to raise funds to finance the youth center he had established, which required much of the money he had earned in the beginning of his career. Despite the assumption that his return to the ring was a mistake, Foreman asserted that he returned to demonstrate that age is not an obstacle to achieving one's goals (as he later stated, age 40 is not a 'death sentence'). Foreman earned the chance to face the undisputed heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield for the world title in a pay-per-view boxing event after a series of victories. Few boxing experts believed that the 42-year-old Foreman had a chance of winning. Foreman surprised many by staying the full 12 rounds, but lost his challenge on points with scores of 116–111, 115–112, and 117–110. In 1994, Foreman again sought to challenge for the world champions...
