GOD IS WISER BEYOND MEN’S CONCEPTION

Nigeria – Source: Guardian From the perspective of men who would perish, God’s instructions and messages are ‘foolish,’ but those who are saved have a different perspective. What the unredeemed people consider foolish is absolutely real wisdom, and is much wiser than what humans could ever imagine. “Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men,” 1 Corinthians 1 vs 25. “Weakness of God” in this passage doesn’t mean God is weak or inadequate. Rather, the passage refers to people who…

WHAT TO DO WHEN IT MAKES NO SENSE

THE WORD FOR TODAY WEDNESDAY APRIL 15, 2020. DEUTERONOMY 29:29 …The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law… Instead of asking God, “Why?” You need learn to trust God in things you don’t understand. When it doesn’t even make sense, keep seeking him when you can’t trace him; don’t give up because He is closer than you think. The life of Job will be our…

GOD, WHY IS THIS HAPPENING TO ME?

THE WORD FOR TODAY TUESDAY APRIL 14, 2020.   Job 3:20 (TEV) In his pain and despair, Job asked a lot of legitimate questions: “Why let people go on living in misery? Why give light to those in grief?” This “why” question is human nature, and we all ask it. We have this misconception that if we understand the reason behind our pain, then it will make the pain easier. You don’t need an explanation; you need strength. You don’t need an explanation; you need a Savior. You don’t need an explanation;…

YOUR HELP IS WITH YOU

For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

In areas where we are without strength, others…

ENTER HIS REST AND CEASE FROM YOUR OWN WORKS

THE WORD FOR TODAY SUNDAY DECEMBER 29, 2019. Hebrews 4:9-13 NKJV There remains therefore a rest for the people of God. For he who has entered His rest has himself also ceased from his works as God did from His. Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall according to the same example of disobedience. For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is…
