Regardless of the philosophy of fallen humanity, a wealthy and happy person is not the one with untold worldly possession and power. The genuinely blessed is he that simply trusts Yahweh without reservation and praises Him at all times. Let’s give thanks to Jah in Jesus’ name!
It is disheartening when the people you have gone out of your way to give succor turn around and boldly stab you. Such a situation may seem as though the whole world is against you. But let us take solace in the ever-faithful One, Yahweh – He remains in our corner.
It is clear from all indications that situations in the world have become chaotic. Our challenges are numerous and diverse as they are complex. It is impossible to figure out a way of escape without divine help in such conditions.
Admittedly, we do not earn salvation – it is God’s gracious gift we received by faith. However, salvation becomes questionable if our attitude or deeds do not reflect the faintest semblance of Christ.
Often, the enemy of our soul slanders the integrity of God – making it seem that God does not care for His own. However, we must not pay attention to the master of lies. Instead, we must remain in faith, obedience, and righteousness in Christ.
The 37th President of the U.S.A., Richard Nixon, said, “Always remember, others may hate you, but those who hate you don’t win unless you hate them, and then you destroy yourself.” The ability to guard the heart against hatred is key to overcoming treachery.
Apart from medical remedies, God, in His wisdom, has provided a way to assuage the mental and emotional pressures of life. There is power in psalms (worship songs with instruments), hymns (vocal songs), and spiritual songs (spontaneous, Holy Spirit-induced scriptural songs).
Like all life’s challenges, none is exempt from mental health issues. Tragically, most believers simplistically dismiss mental illness as a spiritual issue: However, we can combine prayer and professional therapy to help the afflicted.
It is clear from all indications that situations in the world have become chaotic. Our challenges are numerous and diverse as they are complex. It is impossible to figure out a way of escape without divine help in such conditions.
“With the audacity of faith, like David, we must stop talking about how big our enemy is and start telling the enemy how big our God is”
The only way to enjoy genuine peace and keep life in order is to remain in fellowship and friendship with the singular source of genuine joy – Yeshua HaMashiach.
It is surreal to observe the trajectory of hate; enemies increase conspiracy as they form new and strange confederations. The situation intensifies if we attempt self-vindication.
Earthly protection may be necessary under certain conditions. However, whether it is a company of strong men or the world’s greatest army, Yahweh’s security for His own has no comparison. What is more, there are no monthly bills…
God appeased His wrath against sin and its incriminating attachments by sacrificing His incarnate Word. This move means we have the only opportunity to escape divine alienation and punishment.
The Lord reminds His disciples of being the preservative to keep the earth from moral decay. The implication is that the church is the last bastion of hope for the world.
We save ourselves from depression, confusion, and being led astray by keeping away from hawkers of the prosperity gospel and snake-oil-selling self-appointed prophets.
Something more terrible happens when we think we have seen the worst. Nevertheless, the faithful Christian and keen Bible student would know that only the return of the Lord will end the deterioration of the present world.
An essential mark of a genuine believer is not rigid religiosity or a claim to self-righteousness. Instead, it is eschewing divisiveness and upholding reconciliation and harmony through love.
Adam’s fall resulted in a severe breach in our relationship with our Creator and damaged our souls beyond recognition. The cost of pacification was so high that the sacrifice of all animals would not suffice. Graciously, Jesus paid the penalties for our redemption on the cross.
Most leaders behave as though they are entitled to worship by all others. However, the example of Jesus teaches that true leaders ought to serve their followers rather than the other way round. May we develop the heart to serve, to God’s glory!
Although tests are harsh and unpleasant, we become weak and saggy without them. Remember that regardless of the source of the trials, they are opportunities for our faith to grow stronger and enlarge.
The sin-absolving, death-defeating, and eternal life-giving power in the blood of Jesus give every sinner a fair shake at salvation. The operative words in this verse are “whoever calls;” it only requires humility and determination for discipleship.
As far as the Holiness of God is concerned, no human being born of a woman and man can hold themselves up as guiltless. Thanks to the Cross, believers have obtained salvation; this is what the narrative of Easter is all about.
We need to appreciate the advanced technology of social media platforms which kept many connected during the peak of the Covid-19 pandemic. However, we cannot substitute old-fashioned, warm-blooded, in-person fellowship with the brethren.
Admittedly, waiting for God’s time can be challenging amid pain, fears, and tears; …However, there are also enough testimonies showing that God would eventually act on behalf of the righteous.
An orphan loses life’s role model and provider; a widow loses companionship and security. Thankfully, Yahweh cares for those so afflicted, especially the godly ones. Let us not hurt such, or God would react.
Due to narrow selfish interests and sheer desire to inflict pain, humans engage in wickedness against each other. But we must bear in mind that regardless of the background of the people we hurt, Yahweh will eventually react.
we must realize that our life does not depend on any prophet, not even Moses, Jacob, or Elijah. Only Yeshua HaMashiach gives eternal life and authentic love and fills with the Holy Spirit.
Indeed, we did not have to contribute anything to our salvation – it is a gift of God’s grace. However, as disciples, we need to cooperate with the Holy Spirit to reform us to reflect God’s nature.
There is no more excellent way for God to prove or firmly establish His love for us than sacrificing His Son on the cross on our behalf, even when we were rebellious.

A gun and knife in the hands of an evil person kills and maims; so does the tongue of an inconsiderate, selfish, and mean person. Let’s learn to utter words that promote the well-being of others rather than cutting them down.
