  • WHAT DOES THAT MEAN, THE STEPS OF A GOOD MAN ARE ORDERED BY GOD?

    Growing up, when I heard people talk about our steps being ordered by God, I used to think that it was reserved only for a certain group of people who had reached their highest level in God. I used to think that at that point, God would always tell them how and when to do…

  • GOD’S VESSEL

    I notice that we often quote Isaiah 64:8, which says, Father, you are the potter, and I am the clay, and I am the work of your hand. However, we never realize the level of submission required to let ourselves be thrown on the Potter’s wheel. Not that I am a fan of pottery, nor…

  • ARE YOU ENGAGING IN THE RIGHT ROUTINES?

    No matter what we do in life, we will always find ourselves involved in some routines. It is not that routines are bad; the question is, are we engaging ourselves in the right ones? I remember a time when I used to go to a restaurant daily to use their Wi-Fi. I became so familiar…

  • THE GOD WHO HONORS

    Many of us grew up in churches where we were taught that God is mean and angry. We were given passages of Scripture taken out of context to support this false interpretation of God. As a result, we developed, even in our adult years, a false view of God that often interferes with our relationship…

  • THE SAVING MIGHT OF GOD’S RIGHT HAND

    Though I’m not a Bible scholar nor am I a theologian, I noticed that Scripture usually talks about God’s mighty right hand but rarely about God’s hands, or left hand, as if God has one hand.  I believe that God has both hands, but He uses the saving might of His right hand only on…

  • WHY IS HEALING NECESSARY BEFORE BLESSINGS

    As mere humans, we all have experienced moments in life when we wish we could have done things differently. And as we get older, we realize that many of the things we placed much emphasis on were trivial, and the things we thought were insignificant are actually essential for our growth.  I have also realized…

  • WHEN YOU ARE APPOINTED

    It took me years to realize the huge difference between God choosing someone to do something and when that person chooses to do it on their own. Some achievements may look good and feel good, but if God was never part of them, they are accomplished in vain. Furthermore, I have also realized that a…

  • THE COURAGE TO BE FREE

    It is interesting how we can spend many years with ourselves and still don’t know who we are, and what we are truly capable of, both positively and negatively. Also, it is interesting that God refuses to manipulate us but patiently waits for us. He would let us plan and do our own thing until…

  • HOW MUCH LOVE IS ENOUGH?

    Slander is common nowadays. No one wants to be slandered, but no one is exempt from it. It is a heart-wrenching feeling to hear people bashing your name, especially when the slander comes from those whom you trust. I believe that no one can properly deal with this issue unless they get their help from…

  • WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE!

    I have always enjoyed listening to and singing the song that says “This little light of mine, I’m going to let it shine…”; however, I didn’t know it was going to be so hard to let this light of mine shine. I mean, how hard can it be to let light shine? The older I…
