  • NEVER GIVE UP ON THE RACE.
    Feb 18 2025
    Never Give Up On the Race

    "These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee" (John 17:1; KJV).Even at the point of His death, Jesus never gave up. When even the religious leaders asked Him to save Himself if He was the Christ, that did not prevent Him from going forward with His mission of dying for the race of Adam. Our Saviour never gave up despite all that He had to go through for you and I. Because of His death for us, we have assurance of eternal life in a world made new.

    Matthew 5:12), the Lord wants us to also press on in Him without giving up. Like Zaccheaus who left nothing undone to see the Saviour (Luke 19:1-10), the Lord wants to pursue Him with all our hearts.

    It doesn't matter your past life or current situation, the Lord wants you to approach Him. Even as Christ gave us an example in perseverance even up to the cross, He expects us not to lose hope, but continue to trust in Him. If we cling to Him with an open heart like the woman with the issue of blood or express a desire to see Him just as He is like Zaccheaus, He will abundantly receive us and bless us.

  • HAVING FAITH IN GOD.
    Feb 18 2025
    Having Faith in God.

    The first chapter of the book of Job tells us how Job was a faithful man of God. God blessed him with seven sons, servants and much wealth. Satan challenged God that the protection and riches He has given Job was the reason for his unswerving commitment to Him. And so God gave the devil the chance to test Job to the highest point. Despite all the negative things the devil brought in the life of Job, Job remained steadfast and victorious in the end (Job 1 -2)

    As followers of Christ, the devil will bring a lot of misfortune in our lives just to test our faith in God. And this is where we have to stand strong and prove to Satan and the entire world that we are true children of God. In times of our extreme troubles, people may suggest various solutions to our problems, even including possible solutions that contradict the clear words of Scripture.

    It is important for us to learn that as Christians, we need to be firm in our principles no matter our situation in life. The Lord has promised never to forsake or leave us (1 Samuel 12:22; Matthew 28:20). He has promised that He will hear us when we pray unto Him (John 14:13-14).

    Beloved, whatever the problem or difficulty we encounter, our God knows, He sees and has a better solution for us if only we can trust in Him and wait for His own timing. Even as God finally answered the prayers of Job, He continues to answer the prayers of His faithful children who trust in Him and wait for Him. It is in our waiting on Him through prayers and a reflection of the Scriptures that He perfects our characters.

  • SELFLESSNESS.
    Feb 18 2025
    Selflessness

    "Go, gather together all the Jews that are present in Shushan, and fast ye for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, night or day: I also and my maidens will fast likewise; and so will I go in unto the king, which is not according to the law: and if I perish, I perish" (Esther 4:16).The story of Esther is an example of selflessness. Esther was a Jew who became the queen of Persia through God's providence. Because Mordecai who was a Jew refused to bow down to Haman, an official of the king, Haman was able to convince Ahasuerus, the king of the Persian Empire to write and seal a law that was to annihilate all the Jews in the empire by a certain date. Mordecai ensured that this perplexing news was brought before queen Esther, who was also a Jew (Esther 3 and 4)

    When Esther heard the troubling news, she did not think only about herself. She thought about the welfare of the people. Esther bid Mordecai to do the following:"Go, gather together all the Jews that are present in Shushan, and fast ye for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, night or day: I also and my maidens will fast likewise; and so will I go in unto the king, which is not according to the law: and if I perish, I perish" (Esther 4:16).Esther's act of selflessness is just a miniature of the selfless nature of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Concerning Christ, we read the following:"5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross." (Philippians 2:5-8)Friends, in this text is found the greatest example of selflessness. As God's children, the Lord expects us to follow the supreme example of Christ's selfless nature. Just like queen Esther, there will come periods in our life where we must be totally selfless to be able to carry forward the gospel mandate that Christ has given to us. There will come periods in our Christian walk where we will have to forgo our food to feed the hungry, forgo our clothes to clothe the naked, forgo our schedules to spend time with the sorrowing and troubled, and forgo our money so the gospel can reach the world. It is my prayer that the Lord will give us the strength to imitate the selfless nature of Christ.
