“Marriage Prayer”
The psalm features agricultural images to illustrate how God blesses those who trust Him. The image of a wife as a fruitful vine in the home and children as olive plants growing around the table illustrate prosperous family relationships. It is sad to think of the blessings on our families we miss because of our failure to trust God and to obey Him. Read the rest of this entry
Giving thanks & Praising God
Psalm 92:1 says “It is good to give thanks to the LORD, And to sing praises to Your name, O Most High.”
ü God works in mysterious ways. Nothing good just happens. “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is not variation or shadow of turning” (James 1:17).
ü God is the source of everything good and what He promises, He provides. He provides everything for us, we need to thank Him and praise Him each day of life.
Finally, We Urge you
In the beginning, the earth was without form and void. Over the next six days, the Lord created everything we needed. And He created them diverse, but balanced.
The enemy always fights everything that God has created and looks to create chaos into the system God created, which includes our spiritual life. Satan uses everything – sometimes even the most unexpected people – to sow chaos, false beliefs, fear and doubt to distort the ultimate truth. This is why as a Christian, it is very important to live a balanced Christian life.
What God Expects From You
Psalms 51 and 44, which were laments, Psalm 139, which is a psalm of praise, and Psalm 30, which is a psalm of thanksgiving. Psalm 15’s not quite like those. It’s more cerebral and less emotional. It’s actually very similar to the books of Proverbs, and Ecclesiastes. It is called a wisdom psalm.
1 Sam 2:13 ff
Simple steps but difficult to follow the steps
O taste and see that the LORD is good; happy are those who take refuge in him…
Question: What kind of person writes words like that?
Answer: Quite obviously it was someone who knew Yahweh very well.
If you recall your scripture/life of King David, He was a shepherd in his youth, spending lots of time praising God with songs while keeping one eye on the wolves that wanted lamb chops.
Like a soldier called to war, well groomed, sharp and disciplined, so we need to be in our lifes with Jesus. We are from the day we accept Jesus, positioned by our Saviour to be a leader. To be a leader right where we are! Leadership is not about how many people follow us, but it’s about how well we lead ourself and the people involved in our life. We need to be leaders carrying the grace of God to forgive and to serve!
Strong Determination!
Genesis 39:9 b “There is no one greater in this house than I, nor has he kept back anything from me but you, because you are his wife. How then can I do this great wickedness/evil, and sin against God?”
Many times we say ‘God is with us…’ we take for granted and carry a talisman and talisman will work. We think God will work in you, no matter how is my life but God doesn’t work that way….looking into His word…HS teaching this evening.
A Greater Anointing
Many people pray like Elisha, “Lord, give me a double portion of Your anointing.” Yet they do not realize the preparation that is involved for such a miraculous thing to occur. Here are seven things that happened in the life of Elisha before God allowed him to receive “the double portion” anointing.

The Kingdom of God System: A Higher Way of Living
Did you know you can live a stress-free life in the midst of economic hardship, financial crises, and shortage? You can thrive and prosper in the midst of hard times. It just depends on the system in which you are operating.
Concepts of the Kingdom
In Bible speaks about kingdom and authority…what is the significance or importance or message to children of God. All mind-sets, ideas, beliefs, and methods of operation fall under one of these categories. There are two kingdoms in operation in the earth—the kingdom of God and the kingdom of darkness.
Sometimes we can become so fixed on receiving new revelation from God that we allow some of the basic principles we’ve learned to slip. Faith, the importance of speaking God’s Word, and the power of the blood of Jesus are some of the fundamental principles of Christianity that we should constantly put ourselves in remembrance of.
