A CLOSE RELATIONSHIP

Inspiration From the Following Bible Verses Jeremiah 33:19-21 The LORD said to me, "I have made a covenant with the day and with the night so that they always come at their proper times and that covenant can never be broken. In the same way I have made a covenant with my servant David that he would always have a descendant to be King, and I have made a covenant with the priests from the tribe of Levi that would always serve, and those covenants can never be broken. Psalm 89:34-35 I will not break my covenant with him or take back even one promise I made him. "Once and for all I have promised by my Holy name. I will never lie to David." Are you familiar with the life story of David? A young shepherd boy was anointed by God to Kill Goliath the giant Philistine. From then God was with him. David was not a perfect man, he is like you and I, but he built a very strong relationship with God. How is your relationship with God? Is it consistent? Do you have time

A PROMISE

Inspiration From The Following Bible Verses Psalm 89:34 -35 I will not break my covenant with him or take back even one promise I made him."Once and for all I have promised by my Holy name: I will never lie to David. Numbers 23:19 "God is not like men, who lie; He is not a human who changes His mind. Whatever He promises, He does; He speaks, and it is done.God's Promise To DaviD left;">How reliable can our God be? How many times have you gone to God with a request? How many of them has He answered and how many, remain unanswered? Irrespective of all I have been through, I trust God and I consider it an honour to have experienced God's existence in my life. If there is ever one thing I am also grateful to God for, it is the fact that He has given us a name that we may be saved.At the mention of 'God's name' every knee bows and every tongue confesses that 'Jesus is LORD'. That name is so powerful that it makes the impossible possible.G

CIRCUMCISION, THE SIGN OF THE COVENANT

Inspiration From The Following Bible Verses Genesis 17:7-8 "I will keep my promise to you and your descendants in future generations as an everlasting covenant. I will be your God and the God of your descendants. I will give to you and to your descendants this land in which you are now a foreigner. The whole land of Canaan will belong to your descendants for ever, and I will be their God. "Exodus 29:45-46" I will live among the people of Isreal, and I will be their God. They will know that I am the LORD their God who brought them out of Egypt so that I could live among them. I am the LORD their God. Circumcision, The Sign Of The Covenant We are descendants of Abraham. God asked Abraham to circumcise every man with him, young and old and, He obeyed. Circumcision is a sign of the Covenant God made with Abraham.Verses 1-6 of Genesis 17 narrates Abraham's encounter with God, mind you, before that, he was called Abram. He was ninety-nine years when the LORD appeare

THE WORD OF LIFE

Inspiration from the following bible verses 1 John 1:1-4 We write to you about the Word of life, which existed from the very beginning. We have heard it, and we have seen, our hands have touched it.When this life became visible, we saw it, so we speak of it and tell you about the eternal life which was with the father and was made known to us. What we have seen and heard we announce to you also, so that you will join with us in the fellowship that we have with the father and with His son Jesus Christ.We write this in order that our joy may be complete.John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, (and dwelt among us, and we behelD his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the father) full of grace and truth.John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.The bible is not a fictional piece written to entertain humanity.

LAWS

Inspiration from Psalm 19:7 "The law of the LORD is perfect, it gives new strength. The commands of the LORD are trustworthy giving wisdom to those who lack it. The laws of the LORD are right, and those who obey them are happy. The commands of the LORD are just and give understanding to the mind. Psalm 93:5 Your laws are eternal, LORD and your temple is Holy indeed, forever and ever.In all He does He is faithful and just; all his commands are dependable. Psalm 119 : 98-100 Your commandments is with me all the time and makes me wiser than my enemies.I understand more than all my teachers because I meditate on your instructions." I have avoided all evil conduct, because I want to obey your word.The law of the LORD Throughout the bible, the LORD Almighty gave laws to His children. I ask, was it to be authoritative overthem? Do you think some of the laws were too harsh? Are the laws applicable today? Are you obeying them? Why do you think God gives laws?The bible texts

GRATITUDE

Inspiration from the following verses Isaiah 25:1 "LORD, you are my God; I will honour you and praise your name. You have done amazing things : you have faithfully carried out the plans you made long ago." Amen Psalm 98:1 "Sing a new song to the LORD; He has done wonderful things. By His own power and holy strength He has won the victory." Amen Numbers 23:9 "God is not like men, who lie, He is not a human who changes His mind. Whatever He promises, He does, He speaks, and it is done." Have you ever felt like God has failed you? Has a delay caused you to think that God didn't care about you? If God is doing it for others, why not me? Have my sins swallowed me up in the sight of God? Or am I doing things the wrong way?I don't understand God, He has this unique way of going about things, twins don't even share the same DNA. How is He able to do everything distinctly? Have you realised that the same situation can cause different emotions

FAITH

Inspiration From Roman 4:13 -25 God's Promise is Received through faith Romans 4:21 "He was absolutely sure that God would be able to do what He had promised." Amen Abraham was a hundred years old when God promised to make him the father of many nations. Old age comes with a lot of complications and limits. A hundred years is a lot of years to become weak, physically Abraham was weak but God who causes dry bones to come back to life; could make anything possible.How was Abraham and Sarah to become parents of many nations when they had no children? Were they going to adopt or was God going to create children for them? Abraham did not look at his wrinkled body nor that of his wife, he was absolutely sure that God would be able to do what He had promised. Abraham's faith was counted as righteousness and so can be yours. We are descendants of father Abraham and as such God's promise to him can be fulfilled in our lives.Has God not being sustaining life on earth, h

CHRISTLIKE

Inspiration from 2 Peter 1:3-8 "God's call and choice ³God's divine power has given us everything we need to live a truly religious life through our knowledge of the one who called us to share in His own glory and goodness.⁴In this way he has given us the very great and precious gifts He promised, so that by means of these gifts you may escape from the destructive lust that is in the world, and may come to share the divine nature.⁵For this very reason do your best to add goodness to your faith; to your goodness add knowledge;⁶ To your knowledge add self-control; to your self-control add endurance; to your endurance add godliness;⁷To your godliness add Christian affection; and to your Christian affection add love. ⁸These are the qualities you need, and if you have them in abundance, they will make you active and effective in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. What is your lifestyle? Are you coping from nieighbours or you are trying to be unique? Has it been rough

PURITY

Inspiration from the following verses 2 Corinthians 7:1 "All these promises are made to us my dear friends.So then let us purify ourselves from everything that makes body or soul unclean, and let us be completely holy by living in awe of God. 2 Corithians 6:17-18 And so the LORD says, "you must leave them and separate yourselves from them. Have nothing to do with what is unclean and I will accept you. "I will be your father, and you shall be my sons and daughters," says the LORD Almighty. Would you gladly walk out in dirty cloths? Would you decide to stop tidying your house because it is bound to get untidy again. Would you stop bathing because the body would get dirty again? Would you consider dirt as an option anytime? Dirt isn't just unhealthy, it breeds insects, rodents, etc. The presence of these can make living very uncomfortable. A dirty environment affects those who live in it; you begin to smell like it and end up looking as such.How do you think heave

WHY WORRY

Inspiration from the following bible verses John 14:1 "Do not be worried and upset," Believe" in God and believe also in me. John 14:27 "Peace is what I leave with you; it is my own peace that I give you. I do not give it as the world does. Do not be worried and upset; do not be afraid. John 16: "I have told you this so that you will have peace by being united to me. The world will make you suffer. But be brave! I have defeated the world!" Why worry? It looks like the easiest thing to do when there is no solution. Why not worry? It doesn't solve the problem.I use to worry about everything. From my body to other people's problems. It just seemed natural to me, I felt worrying only meant that I cared a lot. I worried about things I had no control over and that was very stressful.Worrying doesn't just drain you of your energy, it brings about fear and panic and deprives you of peace.Is worrying a solution? No! Does worrying provide a solution?

GOD IS NOT A MAN

God is not a man to change Inspiration From The Following Verses Numbers 23:19 "God is not like men, who lie; He is not a human who changes His mind. Whatever He promises He does; He speaks, and it is done. Amen Isaiah 55:8-11 "My thoughts," says the LORD, "are not like yours, and my ways are different from yours."As high as the heavens are above the earth. So high are my thoughts above yours."My word is like the snow and the rain that come down from the sky to water the earth. They make the crops grow and provide seed for sowing and food to eat. So also will be the word that I speak- it will not fail to do what I plan for it, it will do everything I send it to do. Amen 1 Samuel 15:29 "Israel's majestic God does not lie or change His mind. He is not a humanbeing- He does not change His mind. Malachi 3:6 "I am the LORD, and I do not change. And so you, the descendants of Jacob are not yet completely lost. Amen Titus 1:2 Which is based

GOD KNOWS YOU

Inspiration From The Following Bible Verses Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee, and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. Amen Psalm 139 :16 You saw me before I was born. The days allotted to me had all been recorded in your book, before any of them ever began. Amen Isaiah 49:1 Listen to me, distant nations, you people who live far away! Before I was born, the LORD chose me and appointed me to be His servant. Amen It is good to get to know people. In getting to know someone, it might take time depending on how close you want to be with the person. For friends, you can find out the person's name, place of abode, work, likes and dislikes, family etc. For business partners, you can dive into the person' educational background, mindset, capabilities, etc. And for relationships, you can go as far as knowing the person's relatives and seeking for the person's hand in marriage.What if

WAIT ON THE LORD

Inspiration from the following Verses Daniel 12:12 Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand  three hundred  and five and thirty days. Amen. Isaiah 42:14 God says, "For a long time I kept silent; I did not  answer my people.  But now the time to act has come I cry out like a woman in Labour.   Amen Isaiah 30:18 And yet the LORD is waiting to be merciful to you. He is ready to take pity on you because He always does what is right. Happy are those who put their trust in the LORD. Amen Isaiah 25:9  When it happens, everyone  will say, "He is our God, We have put our trust in Him, and he has rescued us. He is the LORD. We have put our trust in Him, and now we are happy and joyful because He has saved us." Amen Isaiah 42:14 God says," For a long time I kept silent; I did not answer my people. But now the time yo act has come. I cry out like a woman in labour. Amen It is good to wait on God, you are assured of something in the end. He is a good God who loves
