Jesus lifted up His eyes on His disciples and said, “Blessed are you poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.” (6:20) Here Jesus is not talking about financial poverty. but poverty in spirit; this means that though we might know many things from the Word, that will not be enough for us. We would never know Him completely in this …
If God takes you to it, He’ll take you through it
The more you focus on your difficulties, your hardships, or even your pain when you are suffering, the more you focus on what happens, the bigger it gets. You doubt God the more. When I think of focus, I remember Daniel in the lions’ Den. If he was focusing on the lions, he wouldn’t be really sleeping, right? He would …
To purpose in our heart
“But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank…” (Dan.1:8) In around 606 B.C. Daniel was taken into Babylonian captivity. He was a young man, having a full future and a successful career ahead of him. He was one of the “selected” few …
Widow of Zarephath
When water of brook Cherith dried up because of the severe famine, Lord commanded Elijah to go to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon to dwell at one widow’s house, who was very poor and weak.

Do not Judge
Dearly beloved in Christ, Greetings in the blessed name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ who said “Do not judge, or you too will be judged” (Matt.7:1). “Do not judge” is a clear command from Lord Jesus to His followers. The Greek word for “judge” used here means “to condemn”. Jesus very plainly says that when we condemn others, …
Blessed to be a Blessing
Dearly beloved in Christ, Grace and peace to you from God, our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ! God has blessed us with many physical and spiritual blessings. These blessings are gifts from God, and are not meant for our selfish use. God blessed us so that we can be a blessing to others. When God told Abraham to “Leave …
Jeremiah
Jesus said, “For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will save it” (Lk. 9:24). Our life is very dear and precious to all of us. Yes, the one life which God has gifted is very precious. But is the One who is the giver of our life more precious to …
Walking in the flesh
The promise of a new covenant is given in the Old Testament, both in Jeremiah and Ezekiel. We read: “Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean. I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols. I will give you a new heart and a new spirit within you. I will …
