Recently, I saw Jesus again in the Old Testament. For those who find it odd, it is quite easy to — you just need to notice patterns that appear again in the New Testament. For example; Jonah’s being swallowed by a fish. The first time I read it, I was amazed when my eyes came … Continue reading Balaam, His Donkey & Jesus

Lie With Me
Still on the topic of working out our salvation with fear and trembling (Phil 2:12), the Joseph-Mrs. Potiphar story comes to play. In the previous blog, I was cautioning many believers not to be swift to judge others who seem to have fallen from grace; perhaps through indulging that overpowered their spirits, and got to … Continue reading Lie With Me
Moses had a right to get Angry!
We are always quick in preachin’ and concluding: Moses didn’t enter the promised land because he was angry. But we never ask who the cause of the anger was! The judgement and finger-pointing ceases when you are in the shoes of the cause of Moses' anger. I imagine you being among the Israelites who kept … Continue reading Moses had a right to get Angry!
STRONG | If I die, I die
Daniel 11:32b But the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits. The Bible says that those who KNOW their God (not generically, but personally) shall firstly be STRONG. Being strong involves being bold or courageous. We see the likes of Daniel not moved when threats of death came their way. … Continue reading STRONG | If I die, I die
The Paradox of Idolatry
Scarcity is one of the human species’ leading causes of idolatry. The idols today have evolved … subtler than graven images, or trees or rocks. Yes, we may contest that we don’t worship other things; but that is only because it happens from our subconscious — a part of our minds we have no idea … Continue reading The Paradox of Idolatry
Action Without Faith!
Following the previous blog: The Dictates of Prophecy, a reader asked, ‘What do you say: You have received a prophecy, do you wait for it to unfold actively or passively… Most christians wait for them to unfold, and when they take long or even the time passes, they will say it wasn’t “true”. Advice?’ Well, … Continue reading Action Without Faith!

Daniel 3:20-21 And he commanded certain mighty men of valor who were in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, and cast them into the burning fiery furnace.

Treasures of Darkness 2 | Hidden Riches of Secret Places
Genesis 41:39-42, 45 Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Inasmuch as God has shown you all this, there is no one as discerning and wise as you. You shall be over my house, and all my people shall be ruled according to your word; only in regard to the throne will I be greater than you.” … Continue reading Treasures of Darkness 2 | Hidden Riches of Secret Places
Redefining Eternal Life
Eternal life doesn’t begin in heaven. It begins the moment you intentionally start to KNOW Him! The idolatry here is us longing for heaven and not for Him who made heaven — Wanting the gift more than the gifter!
The Love Hack
Awake, Sunday 9th, the word of the Lord came to me: We love Him because He first loved us. (I John 4:19) God loved us first, and when we understand the depth of that, by default, we get indebted. Indebted to love Him back. I wanted to apply this to humans as well; but I … Continue reading The Love Hack
Consequences of Ignorance
We must read our Bibles! If not we shall become victims of lies and ignorance. I once attended a friend’s father’s burial service. The chaplain there spoke in a manner indifferent from God, and worst of all she painted her accusations on God. While she preached, she said, “You might be here, and God ordained … Continue reading Consequences of Ignorance
In the Manner of Obed-Edom
II Samuel 6:11-12 The ark of the Lord remained in the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite three months. And the Lord blessed Obed-Edom and all his household. Now it was told King David, saying, “The Lord has blessed the house of Obed-Edom and all that belongs to him, because of the ark of God.” So … Continue reading In the Manner of Obed-Edom
Celeterrestrial 2 | A Little Lower Than Angels…?
So some angels slept with the daughters of men! How did the visible, conceive the seeds of the invisible? A new world unlocks unto us, when we dive into the train of thought behind this interrogation. And it could help us in more ways than we could imagine.
Better Than Angels!
Last night, I jokingly told the Lord, ‘Send Angel Gabriel to us too, that he may tell of things to come in 2025.’ I can’t believe I hadn’t thought of the consequences of my actions… But, as ever so gently as He is, an answer He gave, ‘I won’t send Gabriel. Even better … I … Continue reading Better Than Angels!
You will not be Ashamed!
Do not fear, for you will not be ashamed; Neither be disgraced, for you will not be put to shame; For you will forget the shame of your youth, And will not remember the reproach of your widowhood anymore. Isaiah 54:4 Still following my graduation, the commonplace thought passed by my mind: what if … Continue reading You will not be Ashamed!
