When God promotes you, He increases His grace on your life. With that increased grace, you are able to accomplish much more. Grace gives you greater ability and opens doors for you. But something very important about grace that you must be conscious of is that it needs recognition. James 4:6 says, “But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble” (KJV). Part of the reason why you may not see the manifestation of grace in your life is because you do not celebrate grace. You should consciously acknowledge that you are full of grace, surrounded with divine favour everywhere and every day. When you do, you will be amazed at… Continue reading "Recognize and Celebrate Grace"

When you do a good thing to someone, they will always remember you, like that woman who poured her expensive perfume on Jesus in Bethany or like Dorcas in Acts 9:36-42. Dorcas was a good woman full of good works. It came to pass in those days that she was sick and she died. All the widows stood by Peter and wept, shewing the coats and garments she had made while she was with them. Peter then prayed for her, and she rose from death. Her good deeds made the widows weep until Peter prayed that she was raised from the dead. Good equips us with resources so that we can use them to benefit ourselves and other people around… Continue reading "Do Good Always"

The word of God in 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 says, “Love is patient, love kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonour others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered,… Continue reading "The Power of Love"

“And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah-jireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of Jehovah it shall be provided.” – Genesis 22:14 (ASV).  Abraham was asked by God to offer his only son of old age as a sacrifice and he listened. When he was about to slay his son, God called out to him and told him not to lay a hand on Isaac. God then provided an animal which Abraham used for the sacrifice. Abraham, despite the fact that God had blessed him with Isaac when he was now very old, listened to God’s instruction to offer his son as a sacrifice. This is how God tests us in our lives. There… Continue reading "Jehovah Jireh"
