REASONS FOR THANKING GOD: LIFE

Let everything that has breath praise the LORD. Praise the LORD! - Psalm 150:6   REFERENCE Psalm 150:1-6   If you can read this, it means you have breath (Life), and because you have breath, you have another reason to thank God in this season of thanksgiving.

Bless the Lord, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities,… – Psalm103:2-3   REFERENCE Psalm 103:1-5   Thanksgiving season is one of the most memorable of all seasons; because it gives us an opportunity to pause and thank God for His many blessings. Thanksgiving gives us the benefit of hindsight; we can look back at our lives and see what God brought us through. The prayers He answered and the blessings He gave us. Also, we can see things we didn’t even pray for that He brought to us. And it gives us...

SIGNS FOLLOW THEM

He wants us to live as carriers of His power so we can bring remedy to hopeless situations,...

KNOW YOUR ROOTS

I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. – John 15:5   REFERENCE John 15:5-8   The root of something is its base, its anchor and the source from which it derives its essence and life. Everything physical or visible we see has an unseen root or substructure that sustains it. The durability, health, strength, sustenance and survival of anything we see visibly, is dependent on its roots (the invisible). There will be no limit to your rising in life if...

CONQUER BY FAITH – 2

But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works (corresponding action) is dead? –James 2:20 (paraphrase mine)   REFERENCE James 2:18-24   Yesterday we concluded with the thought that “faith” has some corresponding actions that make it a dominant and conquering force, otherwise it will remain inactive. When faith possesses a man’s heart, it manifests itself in different ‘actions of faith.’ Here are some of them: Thinking in line with God’s Word – “As a man thinks so he is...” The woman with the issue of blood kept thinking in her heart (muttering to herself), “If...

CONQUER BY FAITH – 1

Every God-begotten person conquers the world’s ways. The conquering power that brings the world to its knees is our faith. – I John 5:4(MSG)   REFERENCE I John 5:4   The natural law and system of this world often fails, because the world is a fallen place; that is why we see all kinds of hardship and evil predominant in the world. As believers, we need to start moving from the natural to the supernatural. We need to operate a system or a law that is higher than the one that is prevalent around us and that system/law is “FAITH....
