The death and resurrection of Jesus signifies a personal victory over oppression, bondage and spiritual wickedness for any person who is willing to partake in the righteousness God offers. We glorify God’s Name for this supernatural victory and pray that Divine victory and peace will be manifested in the personal testimonies of all who doContinueContinue reading “Lent Day 40: Victory!! A Personalized Psalm of Victory”

Last week, I was privileged  to attend a retreat program at one of the local churches. The Minister spent some time talking about the significance of Christ’s death on the cross. He mentioned that we could lay our burdens, sins and fears upon the cross and in exchange, take away forgiveness, a new life, peaceContinueContinue reading “Lent Day 39: Take One Nail to The Foot of The Cross”

Judas, the only non-Galilean among the disciples, has been condemned through the ages for selling Jesus out. We do well to recall his character and see if we possess any of the attributes that made him the kind of man who could betray a friend and Master. We recount the story where he was upset atContinueContinue reading “Lent Day 38: The Judas in All of Us”

Shortly before His death, when Jesus as a human being expressed His fears about the agony He was about to undergo, He resignedly asked God to glorify His name. According to John’s Gospel, Chapter 12: 27 “Now My soul is troubled, and what shall I say? ‘Father, save Me from this hour’? But for this purposeContinueContinue reading “Lent Day 37: All for God’s Glory – The Cross before The Fruits”

Now that I have been dwelling on the ultimate goal of glorifying God in everything, I have been paying more attention to the lyrics of worship and gospel music. I am beginning to find that some worship songs seem to tilt more in the direction of focusing on the singer’s end of their relationship withContinueContinue reading “Lent Day 36: Ensuring that Christian Music Actually Glorifies God”

Yesterday, a sister-friend of mine asked me about my ongoing journey in spiritual growth; how do I understand the changes that have been happening and continue to happen to me? How has the ongoing, daily renewal of my mind affected the way I think and do things or interact with others? She suggested I spendContinueContinue reading “Lent Day 35: The Smell Test for God’s Holy Spirit”

I have always wondered, why is it so hard for we Christians to really internalize how God forgives us? Why do we believe we can confess our sins to God and get a total absolution, and yet refuse to forgive others that way with the Divine help that has been made available to us? WhatContinueContinue reading “Lent Day 34: The Undeviating Test”

One of the things that continues to baffle me about some forms of evangelism, and for which I have not found an answer,  is when I hear that belief in the salvation that Christ wrought for us is all that is needed for any Christian to make it to heaven at the end of theirContinueContinue reading “Lent Day 33: From C.S.

Psalm 24: 1The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it; 2for he founded it on the seas and established it on the waters. 3Who may ascend the mountain of the Lord? Who may stand in his holy place? 4The one who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not trust in anContinueContinue reading “Lent Day 32: Psalm 24 – Three Pearls”

Concluding the postings on Psalm 92 from the past two days, Lent Day 30: God’s Promise to the Righteous: Flourishing like a Palm Tree (Psalm 92:12); Lent Day 29: Personalized Scripture Prayer – Psalm 92; we should dig some more into how the Cedar of Lebanon grows to fully grasp God’s promise in verse 12. LebanonContinueContinue reading “Day 31: God’s Promise – The Righteous Shall Grow Like a Cedar in Lebanon”
