I am not alone, for my Father is with me

John 16:32 says, "Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me."

No matter who leaves you in ministry, you mustn't allow the departure of anyone to cause you to harbour hatred against them. People may leave you, but don't let their departure make you lose the presence of God with you. The most crucial thing in life is to have God by your side. If you can secure His presence, you will gain back much more than the people who have left you.

It's vital to handle every matter in a mature way as a leader, even if you are right. The person who left you today might become an asset to you tomorrow. How you deal with today's pain will determine what it will bring to you tomorrow. Refrain from speaking curses against anyone, no matter how hurt you are. What you say against a person will come back to hurt you tomorrow.

Don't let people's attitudes towards you determine your feelings towards them. Your joy or peace shouldn't be dictated by anyone or anything. Instead, allow God to fight for you in every matter. Even when everything turns against you and you feel alone, you must always have faith that God is with you. With God on your side, everything you are going through now will turn into a testimony for you.

Your loyalty to God should be unwavering, regardless of what you are going through in life and ministry. God will never leave you nor allow you to be ashamed or defeated. When it seems like no one is coming to your aid, God is right there with you and is not far away. His presence is the most valuable thing you can have in your life. If you can secure His presence, you will receive His help and provisions as well.

Power of Persistence

Power of Persistence  And Gideon came to Jordan, and passed over, he, and the three hundred men that were with him, faint, yet pursuing them. Judges 8:4 Persistence is essential for pursuing a significant purpose and achieving a vision that seems beyond our strength. Despite their exhaustion, Gideon and his soldiers continued their pursuit of their enemies, demonstrating the power of a clear and compelling goal to inspire perseverance in fulfilling a dream. Persistence allows us to remain consistent and steadfast in our pursuits. Without a great vision, we may struggle to rise from complacency and actively seek God with the dedication needed for constant prayer, which builds a strong spirit, deepens our faith, enhances our understanding of the Word of God, and helps us grow in alignment with our vision.  God does not use casual seekers for the advancement of His kingdom; He relies on those who are consistent and committed. Persistence in prayer and faith is key to receiving an...

You are worthy O Lord..

You are worthy O Lord.. The twenty-four elders fall down before Him who sits on the throne and worship Him who lives forever and ever. They cast their crowns before the throne, saying, "You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory, honour, and power; for You have created all things, and for Your pleasure, they are and were created." — Revelation 4:10-11 Even with the privilege of sitting around God's throne, these elders demonstrate a deep sense of humility before Him. When the living creatures give glory, honour, and thanks to God, the elders do not remain seated, proud of their crowns. Instead, they rise from their seats and fall down before God. In worship, they lay their crowns at His feet, proclaiming that He alone is worthy of glory, honour, and power. The crowned elders understand that there is only one King, and that King is God, deserving of all glory despite the honour they have been given. Like these elders, we must not allow the privileges, gifts, bles...

The Word became Answer

Image
The Word became Answer RSV, John 1:14: "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth; we have beheld his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father." The Word, or Logos, became human as God's response to our need for salvation, addressing all our spiritual needs and the limitations we face as humans. The written word, the scriptures, is also provided by God to meet our needs. However, many struggle to find answers to their challenges in the scriptures due to their lack of understanding of them. But those who genuinely seek truth from the scriptures and are willing to obey God's guidance will find that the scriptures are revealed to them, providing a word from God. Casual reading of the scriptures will not yield meaningful benefits. Our comprehension of the scriptures plays a significant role in how we apply them and the guidance we receive. Therefore, we must not only read the scriptures but also study them carefully to uncove...
