GOD AND INSULT
I remember observing two people having an altercation in which one person became increasingly agitated, using a variety of provoking words, while the other person remained calm and quiet. When I asked her why she didn’t defend herself against such disrespect, she said, ‘You don’t have to dress up and show up to every party…

GOD DOESN’T CALL THE QUALIFIED, BUT HE QUALIFIES THE CALLED
Often, we feel overwhelmed when we don’t know what to study as a career, especially in 12th grade. We want to pursue the right career because every college class we take must count toward our career goals. Nothing is scarier than taking a bunch of irrelevant courses in college, not knowing what you want to…

I DESERVE TO BE HERE JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE. PLEASE GIVE ME A FAIR CHANCE (ABORTION)
This article is not to judge anyone who has had an abortion, nor is it to judge anyone who is planning to have an abortion. Its purpose is to help us better understand God’s perspective on the matter. It is one of the most difficult articles for me to write about, but I am led…

A DEEPER UNDERSTANDING OF MATTHEW 24:14 “AND THIS GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM WILL BE PREACHED IN THE WHOLE WORLD AS A TESTIMONY TO ALL NATIONS.”
There is not a day that goes by that we mustn’t take a moment to celebrate Jesus for His intentionality, discipline, and consistency in bringing us the Good News of the Kingdom of God. Had He given up on His assignment to save the world from sin, we all would have already perished. Jesus must…

LET’S DIG A LITTLE INTO 1 JOHN 4:4: “GREATER IS HE THAT IS IN ME THAN HE THAT IS IN THE WORLD.”
Sometimes we can get caught up in just reading passages of Scripture without taking the time to meditate on them to see the depth of God’s Word to us. I don’t know how many times I’ve quoted Bible verses and realized years later that there is more to the Biblical text than I originally thought.…

IS GOD FAIR OR DOES HE SHOW FAVORITISM?
There is a myth that has been passed down to us, and it is that God is a blesser, but somehow, He likes to make us suffer or hide His blessings from us. The truth is, God wants to bless us more than we want to be blessed. For instance, there was a time when…

WHEN YOU ARE UNDER GOD’S AUTHORITY
I will never forget the day when God told me that there’s a difference between when I think He’s with me and when He truly is. Now, don’t get me wrong, God loves us and His Spirit lives within us 24/7. However, the revelation He conveyed to me that moment is that He has a…

A DIVINE ESCAPE FROM RAPE AND/OR DEATH TESTIMONY!
When the Bible says in Ephesians 6:12 that “Our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” I am learning little by little by the grace of God what this verse…

A DEEPER UNDERSTANDING OF CONDEMNATION VERSUS CONVICTION
The world is full of people who are constantly ready to slice you up like pizza. The moment you make the slightest mistake, they are more than ready to condemn or crucify you, especially if you are a well-known person. They make it seem as if a renowned person is not allowed to be human.…

THE SECRETS FOR A LONG SPIRIT-FILLED LIFE
No matter how many curveballs life may throw at us, we always ask God to protect us from harm, to cover our family and friends when we pray, because we don’t want to die or to lose our loved ones prematurely. We pray to God to preserve our lives because we cherish and appreciate the…
