Proverbs 21:1 Our text passage informs us the kings heart is in God's hand and He directs it as the rivers of water turning it as He wills. A king is a leader and person of influence, usually with great wealth and in a position to bless you. It is God who directs the heart of a king, it is God who directs the heart of men in the way He pleases. God connects people, God can put us in the heart of people for good. God is a God who connects people. God is a God who links people together for His purposes, will, and assignments. God brings friendships together for a purpose. God permitted Jonathan the son of king Saul to love David the shepherd boy as much as he loved himself. 1 Samuel 18:1 There is a reason and purpose for that, it was to bring David closer to the palace, to the royal family and ultimately to bring David to his destiny which is to become king of Israel. Jonathan consented to David's becoming the next king, which was to Jonathan's own giving up of what could hav...

Matthew 27: 57-66 Matthew 28: 1-8 Our text passages shows that God is a God who sets things up. He is a planner, a great mastermind and an orchestrator. The death and resurrection of Jesus Christ was a master set up from the throne room of God. If the spirit and human enemies of Jesus knew what they were doing was playing into God's plan for Jesus they would not have done what they did. 1 Corinthians 2:8 We will do well aligning with the Lord's plan, will, and purposes. Romans 8:28 When the Lord is involved, what looks like a closed door is actually an open door, what looks like a dead end is the beginning of a new chapter and what looks like a closed case is an entrance into a whole new world. Jesus died as a result of the occurrences of the crucifixion, He was eventually put in a tomb and it looked like the end of the story. The authorities had commanded that the rock  rolled over the entrance to His tomb be sealed so that no one moves it or goes there. Even in death Jesus...

 John 1:16 Grace is fuel for the journey of life. Grace helps and enhances us in life. Grace qualifies us for what we need to do in life and helps us make it to the finish line of life successfully. Our lives can be likened to cars, and life itself can be likened to an individual race each person is running. 1 Corinthians 9:24 A car that has no fuel cannot race. A car that ran out of fuel during the race will not make it to the finish line. What fuel is to vehicles is what grace is to us on the journey of life, and even more. A car that had been stuck, that's been immobile due to an empty tank will begin to run efficiently once fuel, diesel, or electricity has been supplied to it. Grace is what we need to make it. As fuel gets a vehicle that was immobile on an empty tank moving, grace gets us moving in life and destiny. Fuel transforms the state of a vehicle from being stuck and grounded when its on an empty tank to moving and functioning efficiently, grace does the same thing for ...

  Proverbs 24:10 Life will demand strength from you, whether its physical, mental, or spiritual strength or all of them. You need strength for the journey of life. You need strength to survive the storms of life, you need strength to ride out the tempest that may come your way on life's journey. On the journey of life we need to know where to get strength when our strength reserves are being depleted. Just as cars need to top up their fuel at the gas/fuel station, we need to top up our strength too on the journey of life. Electric cars recharge at certain points, diesel cars also get fuel at gas stations. If they don't, the car will stop and refuse to move at some point. In the same manner, when our strength is not replenished we will start functioning below our best at some point. When you are tired, fatigued, or weak, where do you go to receive strength? Feeling weak is not an offence, feeling fatigued is not a crime, neither is feeling tired a sin. Life's issues and chal...

Psalm 46:1 Our scripture passage informs us that God is our present help in time of need! That means God is ever present to help us.. It means God is ever present to hear us. It means God is ever present see and know what we are going through.  It means God is on hand to intervene in our favor. Faith is now. Faith is a present tense reality.

There are moments in life you need God to come through for you right now, right there and then because of the seriousness and urgency of your matter. Such times are not the time you need a Pastor or church giving you a long list of prayer points to pray for 21 days. Such times are not the time yo...

 Psalm 16:11 Our text passage shows us there is joy and there are pleasures in the presence of God. There is a type of joy we will never know or experience except we get into His presence. We can access the presence of God and go into the presence of God regularly even daily. In life we want joy, we all wish to live a life of joy. In life we also want pleasures, that is why we seek all sorts of entertainment. But those pleasures we get here are fleeting, they are temporary. There is long lasting and permanent joy in the Lord's presence. We access the presence of God through singing, through songs, the Lord loves music . Psalm 100:2 Our rest is found in the Lord's presence. Life can have its turbulent moments. Life can have its difficult seasons. That's why we need rest. We have to find rest. True rest, in a difficult world is found in the Lord's presence. Exodus 33:14 The presence of God is also called the secret place. We also access it through prayer . Hebrews 4:16 We...
