The Holy Spirit

By -
John 14:17, ‘…the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept Him, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him. But you know Him for He lives with you and will be in you.’ When we accept Jesus Christ in our lives by faith, a wonderful miracle happens, God resurrects our spirit and comes fills us with His Spirit – the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of truth, making His home with us and what a joy it is to have Him in and with you! For he will always live in us, never leaving nor forsaking us. Then you can have all the confidence to do everything according to His will with the knowledge that He who is in us is greater than those that are in the world. The Holy Spirit convicts us of sin so that we may repent of our sins and receive the forgiveness of God through Jesus Christ, of righteousness so that we may have the confidence to approach the throne of God through Christ who has clothed us with His righteousness and is seated at the right hand of the Father in heaven interceding on our behalf and of judgment because the prince of this world – the Devil, stands defeated and condemned at the cross through Jesus Christ having lost all the power and dominion to Him. But for those of us that are still living as slaves to the world, slaves to sin and sinfulness, are dead in spirit and the Spirit of God cannot/ will not dwell in them because God hates sin and because of this they do not and are not able to know the Spirit of God, living in ignorance and under the clutches and dominion of the Devil, facing the risk of eternal death and separation from God. So for those of us that know the truth, go out and share the good news with those that still living in darkness so that they may be reborn and renewed in Jesus Christ and receive the Counsellor that will minister to them and reveal the truth about God to them.

Giving Praise to God

By -
we need to take time and be thankful to the Lord for all the things he has done in our life, the blessings he has poured on us, the afflictions he has prevented us from suffering, the courage he has given us to face difficult times, the solace he gave us when we were sorrowful, and the gift of forgiveness and eternal life. Our God is a compassionate and gracious God and we need to rejoice and be glad in it. We should honor God with songs of praise for even the angels honor him with song in heaven. It is good that in most churches before they start the service, they honor God with songs of praise and worship. These songs not only honor God but uplift us, they give us hope, they empower us and remind us of our loving Father, Our Saviour, Our redeemer, Our comforter. David put it best in Psalms 103:1-5, ´Praise the Lord, O my soul; all my inmost being, praise His holy name. Praise the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits – who forgives all your sins, and heals all your di

Christian Living

Collosians 3:12-17, 'Therefore, as God´s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience . Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. Jesus Christ taught us how to live in righteousness. Paul told the Collosians the traits we need to hold dear in our heart as men and women of God namely compassion, kindness, humility, ge

Our Savior

Isaiah 43:1-3, ‘But now, this is what the Lord says – He who created you, O Jacob, He who formed you O Israel: “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. For I am the Lord, your God, the Holy one of Israel, your Savior…”’ In this dying and corrupt world, we who are ambassadors of Jesus are hated by this world and we will face persecution on top of the troubles of this world. But we must remain steadfast because our God has not and will not forsake us. He bought us and redeemed us with the blood of His Son Jesus, who is the author and perfecter of our faith. We are now His Sons through Jesus Christ. When we pass through murky waters or are threatened to be engulfed and overwhelmed by the sin in this world, we shall not be swept away becau
