Unveil

All Things Are Yours!

There is this story of an illiterate and unworldly peasant who struck it rich. He bought a first class ticket for a train journey to the city, but because he was uneducated and unaware of his privileges he ended up in the third class cabin. He had a first class ticket, but could not use it because he did not know what he had. 

You see as Christian believers, the Scripture tells us that our Heavenly Father has made all provisions ready and available for us in the adventure of life through His Son Jesus Christ.

Think on This:

Diligence

God the Father is a diligent worker.

God the Son (Jesus) is a diligent worker.

God the Holy Spirit is a diligent worker.

I also should and must be a diligent worker.

Crown The Year With Your Goodness

As we begin the last month of the year there is an air of joy, excitement, celebration and festivity in the atmosphere, because we are fast approaching the Christmas and holiday season.

Its equally striking to note that the year has gone by as ever, so quickly. But the good news is, the year is not over yet though a new one is just around the corner.

My Sustainer, My Maintainer & My Keeper

I once heard a conversation where some folks were discussing the fact that advances in science and medicine has led to medication that aids and facilitates sleep. Medication that are classified as anti-insomnia, that is, medicines that help people fall asleep or stay asleep or have a good sleep.

But the interesting and most profound part of the conversation came when one of the folks said that in all the genuine and sincere advances plus hype of medical science, it has till date failed to find a cure for death. That is, a medicine that will revive or wake up a dead person.

Moments in Life

In Happy Moment- Praise God
Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise. - James 5:13

In Difficult Moment- Seek God
Then they carried to the Lord in their trouble, and He saved them from their distress.- Psalm 107:19

In Quiet Moment- Worship God
Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.- Psalm 46:10

In Painful Moment- Trust God
I know that my Redeemer lives, and that in the end He will stand upon the earth.- Job 19:25

In Every Moment- Give Him Thanks
Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. - 1 Thessalonians 5:18

Help my unbelief!

I recently read a small booklet on "You can have living faith" published by the United church of God. The booklet covered the definition of faith, why many lack faith, examples of living faith, enemies of faith, growing in faith and others.

As I devoured the small booklet, enjoying every bit of it, I found myself stuck on the 'Growing in faith' section, and it has since refused to let go off me. This is with particular reference to the story of the father who brought his demon-possessed son to Jesus to heal him. (Mark 9:14-29):

May the Lord strengthen your faith as you read this piece. Amen

And they went out......

The last three days of last week were great, unique, creative and fruitful days of sowing and evangelism in and around Cardiff University, UWIC and the University of Glamorgan.

The evangelism team that I work with- Jon, Lydia, Saskia and Khalida had the great opportunity of going out together with the students from the School of the Word- SOTW, Cardiff on a 3-day evangelism outreach in and around these Universities .

It's a new day and month

It's a new day and indeed a new month, the only one of its kind that does not occur twice in the calendar of time or in the timeline of life.

The last month appeared as if it just literally flew away, so fast and gone so quickly before you could really get a hold on it. Do you know what, time may have appeared to have made a fast getaway last month, but not before the Lord had left a great deposit of blessings for you in that month of January.

I personnally like to reflect on an out-going month, so as to project into an in-coming one. It helps me to position myself for the new things that God has in stock for the this new day, month and season.

"See, the former things have taken place, and new things I declare; before they spring into being I announce them to you."- Isaiah 42:9

God has good, amazing, mind-blowing, awe-inspiring, marvellous, incredible, miraculous, joyful and indeed new things for you this day and month. So confidently exepct Him to come through, perform, deliver, carry on to completion the great works and deeds He had already began in your life this year.

"Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus."- Phillipians 1:6

"Because the Sovereign LORD helps me, I will not be disgraced."- Isaiah 50:7

Diamonds are forever?

Do you know that diamond is the hardest substance on earth, infact it is 58 times harder than the  next hardest mineral on earth (that is amazing!). Diamonds are said to be formed over a period of a billion or more years deep wihin earth's crust- about 150km deep (incerdible!).

It was only during the 15th century that it was discovered that the only way to cut diamonds was with other diamonds. Yet diamonds are brittle. If you hit one hard with a hammer, it will shatter, and if placed in an oven and the temperature is raised to about 763 degrees Celsius (1405 degrees Fahrenheit), it will simply vanish, without even ash remaining.

Why then do you think we have the phrase: 'Diamonds are forever.' Please, post your comments.

Moving On, Moving Up

I got a free one year subscription gift of Typepad Pro from Typepad courtesy of Erling Thu- my teacher when I was in the Bible School last year. Erling it was who introduced me and some of my colleagues (Caleb) in the school to blogging in November 2004. I'd like to thank Erling for his commitment and encouragement to my blogging, by facilitating my access to this blogging facility (one of the best around).

I welcome you to this NEW blog site. It is a continuation of the past eleven (11) months of blogging as UNVEIL. Click on link to the previous site.

Please if there is any saviour(?) out there who knows how to import a blog from one site to the other, do give me a shout out.
