Find answers to several Bible questions while getting spiritually nourished with truth from scripture.
In Matthew 7:7, Jesus said, “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.” This scripture significantly talks about levels of persistent prayer. That is, beyond asking, seek. And beyond seeking, knock. So, as a believer, you don’t have an excuse not to keep praying if you really want what you are requesting for.
In Matthew 7:3-5, Jesus said it is hypocrisy to point out another man’s faults and neglect your own. In other words, don’t think you are so perfect that there’s nothing wrong with you to correct. I tell you that the best version of you is yet to be seen. There is more to do and more to learn.
Why worry about what you’ll wear if God has promised to supply all your needs? Wear what you have and trust God to provide what you’ll need in the near future.
When you disfigure your face, people will know you are hungry, and it won’t help you to fast in privacy. But when you put up a nice face and concentrate on God to grant you your request as you fast, your mind will go less on food and more on God, which will also reduce the suspicions of others.
As you grow, you’ll get busier, and if you don’t take care, you’ll be tempted to drop down your prayer and time with God so low on your priority list. Step up and be serious because God is still interested in You knowing Him more, regardless of your age.
No matter how much you think you don’t have, psych your mind to be generous to others by faith. The day you start thinking about others benefiting from you, you’ll see resources come towards your direction.
Jesus said in Matthew 5:14 that you, as a child of God, are the light of the world. That means that to deal with the darkness in the world, you, the light, ought to shine. Shining requires you to be intentional about witnessing Christ Jesus everywhere you go.
Jesus said in Luke 9:62 that anyone who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is not fit for service in God’s kingdom. That means that when a child of God conceives a desire to serve in the ministry but later abandons that desire or walks away, that person is disqualified for kingdom service. So let me ask, are you fit for service in God’s kingdom?
As a parent, if God has blessed you with a child, He wants you to be faithful in caring for that child. And as a pastor, if God has blessed you with some of His sheep, be faithful to give them meaningful spiritual food. More importantly, as a child of God, don’t be over-reliant on others for your spiritual growth. Take utmost responsibility for it.
Never mortgage God’s spiritual power in your life to anybody. Just use it to impact lives, and if they are blessed enough to appreciate you for what God has used you to help them in their lives, you can receive it willingly.
You cannot always get your way around things by giving bribes to people. On the other hand, if what you intend to do with the bribe fails, the one you bribed to help you will also get into trouble when caught. Can you remain bent on maintaining your integrity before God and not accept using shortcuts to get things done?
You can have the comfortable life you desire when God lavishes you with wealth, but don’t let what you have have you. Use your possessions to fulfil God’s purposes, but always know that your identity is not in any of the things you have.
Have you ever felt trapped in a cycle of illness, convinced that it is a normal occurrence? Today, let this be a reminder that sickness is not your portion as a child of God. Your inheritance is health, wholeness, and abundance. However, where there is a delay, continue to trust His heart, even when you cannot trace His hand.
There is one thing I want to say about mothers, predominantly Christian mothers. It’s how they keep praying for their children and husbands. It’s such an awesome practice. But there’s something called praying the right way for your child as a mother.
God did not call you to add issues to where He helped you get your work. Your addition to that team should bring relief instead of pain. So, when a problem arises, you must have the courage to solve it, rather than turning on an idle attitude.
There are some times in life when things get logically frightening. People might play the devil’s advocate by trying to instil fear in you, but God’s word to us is to choose not to fear every one of those times. He has already empowered us against fear when He says, “Fear not!”
If you are in Zion (signifying those born again) and your life is too flexible (at ease or lazy), there’s something wrong. Why? In God’s kingdom, there is pressure to make advancements to establish God’s purposes on Earth. Don’t entertain laziness in your life.
Delve into the Word to uncover your inheritance waiting for you. Also, remember that God’s principles were established not merely for your benefit but primarily for God’s glory.
If you don’t know how to pray in the quiet moments or at any moment of your life, begin with just calling on the name of the Lord. His name is powerful and can be an anchor to you in various points of need in your life.
The Bible isn’t just a book of rules or stories. It’s a divine revelation that calls for full engagement of the head, mind, and heart. Reading it with your eyes, understanding it with your mind, and receiving it with your heart becomes more than literature; it becomes life. Don’t stop at the surface, whether you’re a lifelong believer or a recent convert. Dive deep.
Sometimes, God doesn’t remove the issue but rather empowers us to go through it. If Jesus never promised us a problem-free life, then surely it’s not every issue you’ll tell Him to remove from your life that He’ll listen to you. As a matter of fact, some are needed for your growth.
The fact that God allowed you to come to this world means you are needed. However, it is not everywhere you are needed. The colt was stuck at that tree because the One who needed it had not yet sent for it. Today, let me minister grace to you. Do not worry about your life because when it is your turn, nothing can stop God’s manifestation of His prophecies concerning your life.
Money is a tool, not a god. When you trust in God more than in gold, you protect your faith and secure your future. Let us not be driven by greed but guided by grace.
Social media is designed to keep you engaged at all times. Living this way, you might miss the real focus of life, disconnect from your fellow Christians, and find yourself isolated—becoming the perfect target for the evil one. So be wise and control the internet; don’t let it control you.
God gives each person unique gifts to serve others and bring glory to Him. These gifts are not just special talents but also ways to show love, help people, and make a difference. However, the most important thing is not how big or small your gift is but how you use it to support others and honour God.
What are you doing with your life that is keeping you busy with something unnecessary before God? Evaluate your life with this question, and chop off any engagement you’re involved in that is taking so much of your time but isn’t yielding any eternal benefit in God’s kingdom for you.
God was raising a whole nation through Abraham and his family line. So, He was meticulous not to allow people from just any tribe to marry or have children with them. God still defended Abraham because He wanted the Holy Seed, which was (and still is) Christ (see Galatians 3:29), to be well preserved. That’s it!
Be encouraged to embrace giving as a lifestyle and a spiritual duty. The consistency of your giving reflects your trust in God’s provision and your commitment to supporting His work. As you apply the principles mentioned in this article, you will experience the joy of generosity and the fulfilment that comes with honouring God through your finances.
The benefits of recognising and obeying The Voice of God are immeasurable—guidance, peace, power, and divine purpose. Each moment you ignore The Voice, you miss out on the direction and blessings that God has prepared for you. As a believer, cultivate the discipline of discernment and obedience, knowing that The Voice of Christ leads you on the path of righteousness, fulfilment, and eternal life.
Just as human relationships thrive on devotion and care, our relationship with God flourishes when we prioritise Him in all we do. The question remains—do you love the Lord? If so, let your actions and heart’s posture reflect that love daily.
