Revival in your town and city


2Ch 7:14 GW  However, if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves, pray, search for me, and turn from their evil ways, then I will hear their prayer from heaven, forgive their sins, and heal their country.

Col 1:28-29 GW  We spread the message about Christ as we instruct and teach everyone with all the wisdom there is. We want to present everyone as mature Christian people.  (29)  I work hard and struggle to do this while his mighty power works in me.

Mat 28:19-20 MKJV  Therefore go and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,  (20)  teaching them to observe all things, whatever I commanded you. And, behold, I am with you all the days until the end of the world. Amen.

Act 2:40-47 MKJV  And with many other words he earnestly testified and exhorted, saying, Be saved from this perverse generation.  (41)  Then those who gladly received his word were baptized. And the same day there were added about three thousand souls.  (42)  And they were continuing steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine, and in fellowship and in the breaking of the loaves, and in prayers.  (43)  And fear came on every soul. And many wonders and miracles took place through the apostles.  (44)  And all who believed were together and had all things common.  (45)  And they sold their possessions and goods and distributed them to all, according as anyone had need.  (46)  And continuing with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they shared food with gladness and simplicity of heart,  (47)  praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved.

2Ch 26:4-5 GW  He did what the LORD considered right, as his father Amaziah had done.  (5)  He dedicated his life to serving God in the days of Zechariah, who taught him to fear God. As long as he dedicated his life to serving the LORD, the LORD gave him success.

Christian Parenthood and Godly Children


Psa 127:3-4 GNB  Children are a gift from the LORD; they are a real blessing.  (4)  The sons a man has when he is young are like arrows in a soldier's hand.

Mat 21:15 GNB  The chief priests and the teachers of the Law became angry when they saw the wonderful things he was doing and the children shouting in the Temple, "Praise to David's Son!"

Mar 10:13-16 GNB  Some people brought children to Jesus for him to place his hands on them, but the disciples scolded the people.  (14)  When Jesus noticed this, he was angry and said to his disciples, "Let the children come to me, and do not stop them, because the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these.  (15)  I assure you that whoever does not receive the Kingdom of God like a child will never enter it."  (16)  Then he took the children in his arms, placed his hands on each of them, and blessed them.

Pro 22:6 GNB  Teach children how they should live, and they will remember it all their life.

Eph 6:4 GNB  Parents, do not treat your children in such a way as to make them angry. Instead, raise them with Christian discipline and instruction.

It is very clear from these verses that children can serve the Lord the same way as an adult. It is the job of a parent to teach children the Bible and how to practically apply it in their every day life. We should bring children to Jesus by teaching them the Word of God. 

This series we call Christian parenthood and Godly children

The joy of the Lord is my strength


Neh 8:10 MKJV  Then he said to them, Go eat the fat and drink the sweet, and send portions to him for whom nothing is prepared. For this day is holy to our LORD. And do not be sorry, for the joy of Jehovah is your strength.

Neh 8:10 CEV  Nehemiah told the people, "Enjoy your good food and wine and share some with those who didn't have anything to bring. Don't be sad! This is a special day for the LORD, and he will make you happy and strong."

Neh 8:10 GNB  Now go home and have a feast. Share your food and wine with those who don't have enough. Today is holy to our Lord, so don't be sad. The joy that the LORD gives you will make you strong."

Psa 28:6-9 MKJV  Blessed is Jehovah, because He has heard the voice of my prayers.  (7)  Jehovah is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in Him, and I am helped; therefore my heart greatly rejoices; and with my song I will praise Him.  (8)  Jehovah is a strength to them, and He is the saving strength of His anointed.  (9)  Save Your people, and bless Your inheritance; feed them also, and lift them up forever.

Psa 28:7-9 GW  The LORD is my strength and my shield. My heart trusted him, so I received help. My heart is triumphant; I give thanks to him with my song.  (8)  The LORD is the strength of his people and a fortress for the victory of his Messiah.  (9)  Save your people, and bless those who belong to you. Be their shepherd, and carry them forever.

Pro 17:22 GW  A joyful heart is good medicine, but depression drains one's strength.

Joe 2:23 GW  People of Zion, be glad and find joy in the LORD your God. The LORD has given you the Teacher of Righteousness. He has sent the autumn rain and the spring rain as before.

Joe 2:23 ESV  "Be glad, O children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD your God, for he has given the early rain for your vindication; he has poured down for you abundant rain, the early and the latter rain, as before.

Php 4:4 MKJV  Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I say, Rejoice!

Php 4:4 GW  Always be joyful in the Lord! I'll say it again: Be joyful!

I love these verses. It teaches us that we can have joy and that the joy in the Lord is our strength. 
It even teaches us that God's joy is like good medicine. This is so awesome. God is a good God and He is our shepherd. He wants us to have joy. He even commands us to REJOICE.

All the above verses tell us clearly that sorrow can never be the end result for our emotions. We might go through storms. We might go through times of loss. It is a BIG temptation for us to bow down to sorrow. But if you bow down to sorrow you can not REJOICE. Can we sorrow for a moment. YES. But never bow down to sorrow, depression and fear. REJOICE is a commandment from GOD.

 This series is called the joy of the Lord

We answer the following questions.
  1. Can a christian have joy
  2. Can a christian have moments of sorrow
  3. What is a godly joy
  4. Is joy a fruit of the spirit
  5. How do I deal with fear and sorrow

The Goodness of God


Is God good? The answer to this question is always a BIG yes.

 Psa 25:8-9 GW  The LORD is good and decent. That is why he teaches sinners the way they should live.  (9)  He leads humble people to do what is right, and he teaches them his way.

Nah 1:7 GNB  The LORD is good; he protects his people in times of trouble; he takes care of those who turn to him.

Rom 2:4 GNB  Or perhaps you despise his great kindness, tolerance, and patience. Surely you know that God is kind, because he is trying to lead you to repent.

Psa 23:6 GNB  I know that Your goodness and love will be with me all my life; and your house will be my home as long as I live.

Psa 31:19 CEV  You are wonderful, and while everyone watches, you store up blessings for all who honor and trust you.

Does God want us to receive good things? The answer to this is always a BIG yes.

Act 14:17 CEV  But He showed that He was there by the good things He did. God sends rain from heaven and makes your crops grow. He gives food to you and makes your hearts glad.

Psa 68:9-10 CEV  When your land was thirsty, You sent showers to refresh it.  (10)  Your people settled there, and You were generous to everyone in need.

2Th 1:11 GW  With this in mind, we always pray that our God will make you worthy of his call. We also pray that through his power he will help you accomplish every good desire and help you do everything your faith produces.

Joh 10:9-11 GW  I am the gate. Those who enter the sheep pen through me will be saved. They will go in and out of the sheep pen and find food.  (10)  A thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy. But I came so that my sheep will have life and so that they will have everything they need.  (11)  "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives his life for the sheep.

Jas 1:17-20 GW  Every good present and every perfect gift comes from above, from the Father who made the sun, moon, and stars. The Father doesn't change like the shifting shadows produced by the sun and the moon.  (18)  God decided to give us life through the word of truth to make us his most important creatures.  (19)  Remember this, my dear brothers and sisters: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and should not get angry easily.  (20)  An angry person doesn't do what God approves of.

In this series we answers the following questions.

What does the Bible say about fashion


Joh 19:23-24 CEV  After the soldiers had nailed Jesus to the cross, they divided up his clothes into four parts, one for each of them. But his outer garment was made from a single piece of cloth, and it did not have any seams.  (24)  The soldiers said to each other, "Let's not rip it apart. We will gamble to see who gets it." This happened so that the Scriptures would come true, which say, "They divided up my clothes and gambled for my garments." The soldiers then did what they had decided.

Joh 19:23-24 GNB  After the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they took his clothes and divided them into four parts, one part for each soldier. They also took the robe, which was made of one piece of woven cloth without any seams in it.  (24)  The soldiers said to one another, "Let's not tear it; let's throw dice to see who will get it." This happened in order to make the scripture come true: "They divided my clothes among themselves and gambled for my robe." And this is what the soldiers did.

Gen 37:3 ESV  Now Israel loved Joseph more than any other of his sons, because he was the son of his old age. And he made him a robe of many colors.

Exo 28:40 ESV  "For Aaron's sons you shall make coats and sashes and caps. You shall make them for glory and beauty.

From these verses we can clearly see that fashion is very important in the Bible. God wants us to look good. We have a right to look good. In all the above verses the clothing was tailored made for the individual. From the below verse we can clearly see that the way you dress and look can identify your personality.

Mat 22:11-14 ESV  "But when the king came in to look at the guests, he saw there a man who had no wedding garment.  (12)  And he said to him, 'Friend, how did you get in here without a wedding garment?' And he was speechless.  (13)  Then the king said to the attendants, 'Bind him hand and foot and cast him into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'  (14)  For many are called, but few are chosen."

Look at Joseph's response when he was called by Pharaoh. He dressed up and made himself presentable.

Gen 41:10-15 MKJV  Pharaoh was angry with his servants, and put me under guard in the chief of the executioner's house, me and the chief baker.  (11)  And we dreamed a dream one night, he and I. We dreamed each man according to the interpretation of his dream.  (12)  And there was there with us a young man, a Hebrew, a slave to the chief of the executioners. And we told him, and he interpreted our dreams to us. He interpreted to each man according to his dream.  (13)  And it happened, as he interpreted to us, so it was. He restored me to my office, and he hanged him.  (14)  Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph. And they hurried him out of the dungeon. And he shaved and changed his clothing, and came in to Pharaoh.  (15)  And Pharaoh said to Joseph, I have dreamed a dream, and none can interpret it. And I have heard it about you, saying, you can understand a dream to interpret it.

We all know people that are very vain and only focus on their fashion and beauty. This is wrong. We must look the best we can but we must have a relationship with God as well. The inner beauty is very important as well

1Pe 3:2-4 GW  Their husbands would see how pure and reverent their lives are.  (3)  Wives must not let their beauty be something external. Beauty doesn't come from hairstyles, gold jewelry, or clothes.  (4)  Rather, beauty is something internal that can't be destroyed. Beauty expresses itself in a gentle and quiet attitude which God considers precious.

So we must never loose the balance. We must have inner beauty but we must also do what we can to have outer beauty. 

This series is call Fashion and the Bible

 In this series I answer the following question
  1. Does the Bible talk about fashion
  2. Can I use a animal products to make clothes
  3. Must a  man and woman use different clothes
  4. Can a woman dress like a man
  5. What is inner beauty
  6. Can I pierce myself and use earrings and nose-rings
  7. What was the first clothes in the Bible

How must we deal with a loss


Joh 10:9-11 MKJV  I am the door. If anyone enters in by Me, he shall be saved and shall go in and out and find pasture.  (10)  The thief does not come except to steal and to kill and to destroy. I have come so that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.  (11)  I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd lays down His life for the sheep.

Pro 15:4 MKJV  A wholesome tongue is a tree of life, but crookedness in it is a break in the spirit.

Pro 18:21 MKJV  Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it shall eat the fruit of it.

Deu 30:15-20 GNB  "Today I am giving you a choice between good and evil, between life and death.  (16)  If you obey the commands of the LORD your God, which I give you today, if you love him, obey him, and keep all his laws, then you will prosper and become a nation of many people. The LORD your God will bless you in the land that you are about to occupy.  (17)  But if you disobey and refuse to listen, and are led away to worship other gods,  (18)  you will be destroyed---I warn you here and now. You will not live long in that land across the Jordan that you are about to occupy.  (19)  I am now giving you the choice between life and death, between God's blessing and God's curse, and I call heaven and earth to witness the choice you make. Choose life.  (20)  Love the LORD your God, obey him and be faithful to him, and then you and your descendants will live long in the land that he promised to give your ancestors, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob."

1Co 15:21-23 GNB  For just as death came by means of a man, in the same way the rising from death comes by means of a man.  (22)  For just as all people die because of their union with Adam, in the same way all will be raised to life because of their union with Christ.  (23)  But each one will be raised in proper order: Christ, first of all; then, at the time of his coming, those who belong to him.

From these verses we can clearly see that God wants us to have good things in life. Death and sorrow only came into the world because Adam sinned and he handed the whole kingdom to satan. But praise Jesus he came and restored to us the eternal life again. But because satan tempted Adam and he fell to the temptation it did usher in the curse and death.

We can resist death as much as we want but in the end death is the reality of us all. We can not escape this in anyway. Everything has a time span. You will die one day. Your business might fail. You car might brake down and many other things that we call death will happen to us all.

I learned not to blame God for these things. He is Good and the only reason why there is death in the world is because of satan and our sin.

In this series I try do make sense of dealing with loss from a biblical view and I answer the following questions.
  1. Is God ever to blame for a loss
  2. Is God good or is God evil
  3. Are we to blame for a loss
  4. Why must I forgive other people
  5. When I grieve must I keep looking back or must I look to the future
  6. What is the importance of my relationship with God
  7. What is my response to the church and church members
  8. What must I do if I fall
  9. How do I define a loss

Keys to Business Finances


Psa 35:27 KJV  Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the LORD be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.

Psa 35:27 GNB  May those who want to see me acquitted shout for joy and say again and again, "How great is the LORD! He is pleased with the success of his servant."

3Jn 1:2 MKJV  Beloved, in regard to all things I pray that you prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers.

From the above verses we can see that God is pleased when we are successful and prosperous.

The danger that we have to guard against is that we must not put money in the place of God
There is only one God and His name is Jesus. He is our Lord and not money

1Ti 6:10 MKJV  For the love of money is a root of all evils, of which some having lusted after, they were seduced from the faith and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

Money and stuff is not evil if we see it as tools to bless other people with

1Ti 6:17-19 MKJV  Charge the rich in this world that they be not high-minded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, He offering to us richly all things to enjoy,  (18)  that they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to share, to be generous,  (19)  laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.

God is the giver of things and stuff and our response is to do the works He created us for.

In the below messages we answer the following questions
  1. What is prosperity
  2. What is the purpose of money and prosperity
  3. Where does stuff and things come from

Discipleship - Be God to all people, everywhere


2Ti 2:1-2 GNB  As for you, my son, be strong through the grace that is ours in union with Christ Jesus.  (2)  Take the teachings that you heard me proclaim in the presence of many witnesses, and entrust them to reliable people, who will be able to teach others also.

Col 3:16 GNB  Christ's message in all its richness must live in your hearts. Teach and instruct one another with all wisdom. Sing psalms, hymns, and sacred songs; sing to God with thanksgiving in your hearts.

 It is very clear from these bible verses that we are called to teach people the word of God. 

Eph 5:1-2 WNT  Therefore be imitators of God, as His dear children.  (2)  And live and act lovingly, as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up to death on our behalf as an offering and sacrifice to God, yielding a fragrant odor.

Mat 28:18-20 MKJV  And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, All authority is given to Me in Heaven and in earth.  (19)  Therefore go and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,  (20)  teaching them to observe all things, whatever I commanded you. And, behold, I am with you all the days until the end of the world. Amen.

It is very clear from the Bible that we are called to disciple people. We are  called to imitate God here on planet earth. When people look at us they must see the love of God and His kindness to people.

Eph 6:19-20 MKJV  And pray for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel,  (20) for which I am an ambassador in bonds; so that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.

Tithes - Why must I tithe and be tither


The Bible teach the following in the old testament. 

 Mal 3:8-12 GNB  I ask you, is it right for a person to cheat God? Of course not, yet you are cheating me. 'How?' you ask. In the matter of tithes and offerings.  (9)  A curse is on all of you because the whole nation is cheating me.  (10)  Bring the full amount of your tithes to the Temple, so that there will be plenty of food there. Put me to the test and you will see that I will open the windows of heaven and pour out on you in abundance all kinds of good things.  (11)  I will not let insects destroy your crops, and your grapevines will be loaded with grapes.  (12)  Then the people of all nations will call you happy, because your land will be a good place to live.

The question that so many people have is this just for the old testament times or is this still for us today 

In this series we answer questions like:
  1. What is tithes and tithing
  2. What is 10% of our income and what has this got do with the church

Why must I listen and submit to my Senior Pastor?



This is a question that so many Christians ask.

 Why do I need to go to church? Why do I need to submit and listen weekly to a Pastor?

 In the below passage we see an interesting fact.

 Ephesians 4 says the following: “11 And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds (pastors) and teachers,12 to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, 13 until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood,to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, 14 so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes. 15 Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, 16 from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love.”

 God put the five-fold ministry in our lives so that we can be equipped for the work that God has for us.

 Ephesians 2 says the following “10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them”
God has created us to do works and the what, where and how this will take place will manifest for you as you submit to your Senior Pastor and the teachings he gives you on a weekly basis.

 Here are 5 reasons why it is so important to submit to your Senior Pastor
  1. They equip you for your ministry (Eph 4:11-16)
  2. They watch over you (Heb 13:17)
  3. They will show us a practical example of a godly live (1 Cor 11:1)
  4. They will pray for us every day (Col 1:9)
  5. They give us the opportunity to sow and reap by partnering with them (Gal 6:6-10)
In the below message I answer this question in more detail

What is Prophecy?


1 Cor 14 NIV says the following "1. Follow the way of love and eagerly desire gifts of the Spirit, especially prophecy.2 For anyone who speaks in a tongue does not speak to people but to God. Indeed, no one understands them; they utter mysteries by the Spirit. 3 But the one who prophesies speaks to people for their strengthening, encouraging and comfort. 4 Anyone who speaks in a tongue edifies themselves, but the one who prophesies edifies the
church."

 Prophecy is not speaking about future events. Prophecy is speaking to someone a word , by the prompting of the Holy Spirit, that will strengthen, encourage and comfort the person.

 The above passage says the we must all  desire the gift of prophesy. This is not an option for the Christian. This is something that God requires us to do. We must have an intimate relationship with the people around us. We must be the light and salt in their lives. And we do this by speaking words that strengthen them; that will encourage them and that would comfort them.

 As we develop our relationship with Jesus and we know how much He loves us, it will be easy for us to engage our community with the love of Jesus. Once we know that Jesus saved us from eternal damnation we will simply not keep silent about the love of God.

 In the below message I explain what prophecy is and how to practically engage your community with the love of God.

Ever wondered what the difference is between a reasonable expectation, a hope and a knowing.

 In the below message I explain the difference. 

“Will God heal me?”, someone might ask. 

As this person spends time with God by studying the Bible he will develop a reasonable expectation that God has all ready healed him as 1 Peter 2:24 states. “By Jesus stripes we are healed.”

As we spend time with someone we will get to know the person more and more. We will learn what the person likes and do not like. We will understand the person better because we are learning the person’s character. It is the same with God. As we spend time with God we are learning His character more and more. 

This in turn creates a reasonable expectation for us with regards to the promises God has for us. Once we have a reasonable expectation we can attach our faith to it to pull the unseen promises of God so that it manifest for us.
