In Times of Adversity- SERIES 2

Commit Your Case to God & Hope in Him

Adversity is defined as 'a difficult or unpleasant situation.'

According to the latest figures from the World Health Organisation, over a million people have been infected globally with Coronavirus (COVID-19). This is a very disturbing news in view of reports from Johns Hopkins University indicating a global death toll of over 70,000 people from the virus.

How then, do you react in times like these?                                                             
What do you do in times of adversity?

Please observe all government health, hygiene, social distancing and stay home guidelines. 
In addition, let us look at the Bible (Job Chapters 5,13 & 14) for examples and answers:

1-) Appeal to God in prayer continuously
"Yet man is born to trouble as surely as sparks fly upward."- Job 5:7 NIV
"However, if I were you, I would appeal to God and would present my case to him."- Job 5:8 CSB
In difficult, uncertain and troubling times like this, wisdom demands that we seek the face of God continuously, and appeal for His mercy and help.

In Times of Adversity- SERIES 1

Return to God & Develop a Close Relationship with Him 

Adversity is defined as 'a difficult or unpleasant situation.'

At a time when Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has claimed over 24,000 lives, and over a quarter of the world's population is under some form of lockdown. These are indeed difficult and unpleasant times!

How then, do you react in times like these?
What do you do in times of adversity?

Please observe all government health, hygiene and stay at home instructions and policies.
In addition, let us look at the Bible (the book of Job 22:21-30) for examples and answers:

1-) Get to know God more
"Get to know God, and you'll be at peace with him, and then prosperity will come to you."- Job 22:21 ISV
Submit your life to God. Spend more time in His presence. Get acquainted with the Lord. This will give you peace.

Rich in Mercy

Excerpts from 'Bible in One Year' by Nicky Gumbel

A man was having his portrait painted by a successful artist. When the portrait was finished it was unveiled. The man was most unhappy with the result. When asked whether he liked it, he replied, ‘I don’t think it does me justice.’ To which the artist replied, ‘Sir, it is not justice you need, but mercy!’

At the end of the day we all need mercy even more than justice. God is ‘rich in mercy’ (Ephesians 2:4). The theme of the ‘mercy of God’ runs throughout the Bible. In the original Greek, ‘eleos’ (mercy) also means compassion, pity, clemency.

The mercy of God is available for you.

International Day of Happiness

Isn't it refreshing and great to know that the world recognises the importance of happiness in a world awashed with a deluge of depressing news particularly with the current surge in religious extremism.

As refreshing as the concept of International Day of Happiness (March 20) is, we need to remember that happiness is fleeting, temporary and circumstantial. This is because our happiness is a function of happenings around us; it is based on the events around us. So when we receive and hear good news, we are happy; but when we receive bad news, what happens to our happiness? Also when we receive gifts from people and they show us love, we are happy; but when people ignore and treat us bad, what happens to our happiness?

Happy New Year!

As we step into 2014 by the will of God. May the Lord establish your ways and make His glory arise upon you.

Welcome to your season of manifestaion.

"Thou shall arise, and have mercy upon zion: for the time to favour her, yea, the set time is come. When the Lord shall build up zion, he shall appear in his glory."- Psalm 102:13 & 16 (KJV)

Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas

Unto Us a Child is Born

As we celebrate Christmas today, we rejoice and bless God for Jesus-The Best and Greatest Gift of all time.

"For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace."- Isaiah 9:6

What's in a name?

Swedish authorities say parents can now name their newborns "Budweiser" or "Metallica" if they so wish.

For decades, Swedish tax authorities had banned parents from naming their children after fast food chains, rock bands or their favorite brand of beer.
