Gen. 8:1 “God remembered Noah and all the wild animals and all the domestic animals that were with him in the ark.” When God shut Noah and the animals in the ark (Gen. 7:16), God did not simply let Noah and all the other creatures be. He remembered them (Gen. 8:1). He knew what they…
Psalm 55:22; 1 Pet. 5:7 “Cast all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you” (1 Pet. 5:7). How comforting! How fortunate we are, to have someone who cares for us! The creator of all things cares for us! Psalm 55:22 says, “Cast your burden on the LORD, and He will sustain you; he…
Acts 4:1-37 The early church went through a long and very tough period. Those in authority prevented them from preaching and practising while making their lives miserable in many other ways. But they knew in whom they believed and were happy nonetheless. In fact, they were happy because they suffered for the gospel. In Acts…
1 Cor. 15:58 Do you feel unappreciated? Are you frustrated because you cannot do what others are doing because of your faith in the LORD? Are you weary and tired? The Apostle Paul said, “My beloved, be steadfast, immovable, always excelling in the work of the Lord, because you know that in the Lord your…
Malachi 1:1-14; Luke 21:1-4 The Israelites and their priests were rebuked by the Lord for “offering polluted food on my altar, [offering] blind animals… those that are lame or sick…” (Mal. 1:7-8). This is completely in contravention to the provisions of Deuteronomy 17:1. Therefore, the Lord said to them, “I have no pleasure in you……
Sam 73 Introduction In 2003, Idi Amin Dada, the notorious Ugandan dictator died. During his tenure as the ‘all-in-all’ of everything in Uganda from 1971 to 1979, more than 500,000 people were killed. Like him, Pol Pot (Saloth Sar) of Cambodia was either directly or indirectly responsible for the death of more than 2,000,000 people…
Num. 11-14 What we are discussing today could be absolutely true or incorrect depending upon the reader. We have been Christians for over a hundred years. But the longer we are, the more lax we have become in our approach towards church services, tithing and many other mission activities. To make our situation worse, have…
Mal. 1:2 The LORD Gos says, “I have loved you”. But they replied, “How have you loved us?” (Mal. 1:2). To those who do not understand God’s love, and those who do not know God often fail to see His immense love for us. But those who know God always see the amazing love of…
1 Cor. 3:23 Let us continue our short discourse that we had a couple of days back on “to whom do you belong” today. If anyone believes in Jesus Christ, he is a new person and, he belongs to Christ. 1 Corinthians 3:23 says, “You belong to Christ.” Christ is a gift, a gift who…
“Their eyes were kept from recognizing him.” Luke 24:16 The two disciples would have recognised Jesus as they walked with him towards Emmaus, but they didn’t. They ought to recognise him instantly, considering all the days they spent with him; but they didn’t. Today, do we recognise him? As Christians, we ought to know him,…
