Today's thought - 22 December 2025

I do not know what the norm is for people when they are distressed. I think a lot of times my battle may not be in my thoughts but subconsciously it still goes on. You know on the outside it looks fine but on the inside we are fighting. 

I love how God says that weeping may last through the night but joy comes in the morning. Here in Psalm 107 God promises that He calms the storm to a whisper and stills the waves. I do not know your battles but I can say with all honesty that God truly stills that storm. As we call on His name and ask Him for help, He answers. 

God says that anything is possible if a person believes. Jesus also said in Mark 11 “I tell you, you can pray for anything, and if you believe that you’ve received it, it will be yours.” It boils down to the fear of God in respect and trust and to continue to have faith.  David wrote “I waited patiently for the Lord to help me, and he turned to me and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the pit of despair, out of the mud and the mire. He set my feet on solid ground.” 

Do not give up, my friend, sometimes the end of the fight is much closer than we think. 

Have an awesome day.

This morning the Holy Spirit takes me to Matthew 6 and although the entire chapter is so nice I think we should simply consider this. Where is your heart? What is most important to you and what drives you? Jesus says you cannot serve two masters. My dear friend as Jesus talks about your treasure and where it is safe. 

It is important that we change our perspective over money and possessions. Jesus plainly shows us that nothing this world offers is of use to us and importantly where does it all come from. God blesses us and entrust us with what is given to us. We have the choice to see it as from God and as Job said God gives and takes away. We have to be responsible with what is added to our lives and put God first and above our own needs. 

That is why Jesus says here that God knows what we need even before we ask. He takes care of His creation so He will surely take care of us. That is why is is vital that we seek the Kingdom of God first and then the rest will be added. Come with me today as we seek diligently the Kingdom of God. Seek the wisdom and guidance of the Holy Spirit. Everything else will fall into place. 

Have an awesome day.

This is such a nice Psalm and has become my go to when my battles seem to overwhelm me. I love this promise of God. He says that He directs our steps and guides us and then He delights in every detail of our lives. I know that nothing I do is from my own strength or my own ability or even my own ideas. 

God is the very reason I woke up today and that I have a job and that I am able to do that job even when it challenges me beyond my capabilities, I am still able to do it and that is grace. When we stumble God is there to catch us. Note He says they never fall. The reason we do not fall is because the Word is a light to our feet and a lamp in our darkness. 

The Word of God is our compass and with the Holy Spirit we are directed by God and when we stumble, God intervenes and holds us up. My dear friend, I pray that you will be filled with wisdom and understanding and that all your ways will be guided by God. 

Have an awesome day.

My cousin sent me this verse yesterday. It is one of my favourites. I want to write to you today about faith. This day we celebrate a missive miracle that happened years ago as a small group if farmers was delivered by the grace of God from the attack of a massive army. 

Now the enemy will bring the whole race thing in this and in essence if we look at it that way we miss what truly happened. Now in comparison the enemy does the same thing to us daily. We pray to God for help or for a difficult time we face but the enemy comes in and tells you, you are not good enough or you are not worthy of God’s grace. 

He will always find something from your past or any word that will put doubt in you. My dear friend, God says He can do exceedingly abundantly above ALL that we ask OR think. Jesus said ask and you shall receive. The trick is not the ask or your past or your mistakes or your problem, it is asking, trusting and waiting patiently for God to move. 

Yes it may look impossible and it may seem insignificant but for God it is not. I pray that you will be filled with the fullness of God and that the Holy Spirit will work in your life to bring all that you pray for to pass. Do not be afraid and do not stop praying. 

The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 18 December 2025

 

It is interesting how satan works. He weakens you by attack on attack and drains your strength and when you are at your weakest he comes in for the kill. This time of the year people are tired and looking forward to some rest. It is in this moment when we celebrate the birth of our Lord that he seems to attack even more. 

Jesus was physically and emotionally tired when satan came to tempt Him. Yet Jesus stood strong against his attacks and ended it by saying Away with you, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve.’ ” When you are at your lowest remember He who is in you is far greater than He who is in this world. We have to regain our fire and the only way we can get that is by spending time with God and in His Word. 

Seek and you shall find Jesus said and again seek first the kingdom of God. My dear friend, we are called to be more than the standards of this world. We are called to do great things as Jesus said. Come with me today as we realign our purpose with the Word and know that the same power that rose Jesus from the dead is the same power that is in us. 

You have infinite power inside you, just call on the Holy Spirit and let the joy of our Lord strengthen us. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 17 December 2025

 

As I struggle with my emotions in the very battle I face I end up this morning reading Matthew 5. I have asked the Holy Sprit for wisdom and understanding in this process yet I seem to end up in an argument in my head every day. Jesus basically lived this out as He states here in Matthew 5, that you should be kind to your enemy. 

To be honest I have no idea how He did it. As He hung on that cross beaten, tortured and humiliated He still asked God to forgive the very people that put Him there. Then who am I to have anger towards my enemy and to condemn my enemies in my head. Who am I to think myself above my Lord. It is a humbling verse and truly difficult as my worldly self wants retribution and vengeance when God says we should turn from anger and vengeance is His. 

My dear friend, as we face many trials and most of them are initiated by people, we should not turn to anger and say the wrong thing. Jesus said: Blessed are the merciful, forthey shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. 

Have an awesome day.

The Holy Spirit brought this passage to me yesterday through a friend. As He confirms again that His will is perfect and exact. Job faced so many trials and yet he stood rooted in his faith and despite all the negative things he continued to trust God. 

Here in Job 28 he mentions that wisdom cannot be find by man’s many technological achievements nor can it be bought with all the precious stones of the world. In essence wisdom is the fear of God. Now fearing God is trusting Him that all circumstances He brings into our lives are according to His perfect plan that He is executing in the best possible way. 

Christ is our wisdom and wisdom is the ability to please God. That is something we can never accomplish on our own but through our Lord Jesus Christ we can. So the pursuit of wisdom is the pursuit of Jesus Christ. We can do all things through Jesus Christ who strengthen us. Trust God in everything and stay away from evil and He will move your mountain and carry you through your valley. 

Have an awesome day, my friend.

Today's thought - 15 December 2025

 

Again the Holy Spirit brings me to Hebrews 4. As I continue to struggle in my battles and the outcome is still far from complete, I get frustrated and you know how the enemy works. He will use any opportunity to get to you and fill your head with lies. 

I cry out to my God and seek His help. This morning God reminds me of these two things. 

One, the promise of His rest applies to us still today. In His rest we find complete content and true rest. It is here where we stand in our faith and completely surrender to God. It is in His rest that we will be victorious over everything the enemy throws at us. It is in His rest that we obtain all the mercy, grace and help we need. 

Secondly God says that nothing we do or think is hidden from Him. Nothing we create or do will remain a secret and everything will be exposed and defenceless before Him. So the truth will come out and the truth will set us free. 

My dear friend, hope is never lost and love overcomes all. Hold on to God and know with all your heart that you will be ok. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 14 December 2025

This is one of the most amazing promises God makes in His Word. There are hundreds of scriptures in the Bible that tells you to not be afraid. It is actually annoying how I constantly battle in my mind with what I am facing at the moment. I do not know if you do it too, but I play the outcome of how I see it ending over and over in my mind and every time it varies. 

It makes me tired and yet if I am still for a moment, there we go again. What does God say here. He makes a clear statement “Do not be afraid” and combined with this He says “I have ransomed you”. He paid the price for our salvation and He bought our freedom with His blood. He makes it abundantly clear that no matter what we face, no matter how deep, no matter how painful, He will be with us and the evil of this world will not touch us. 

The entire world is currently designed to destroy but in all of this chaos we have Jesus Christ who has already defeated this world and gave us the way out. We get stuck in our thoughts because that is the only weapon the enemy has. He wants to control your mind with lies and fear and deception and anger and hatred. In that lies his plan, but unfortunately the One who is in us is far, far greater than he who is in this world. 

Seek the Holy Spirit in everything. Your decisions, your ideas, your thoughts, your hurt, your sorrow, your anger and even your joy. He is beyond all and knows all and sees all. That is why Jesus said “I am sending you someone like me. The comforter. The Holy Spirit”. Let Him be the one you turn to all the time. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 13 December 2025

I can sing of your mercies forever. God is good beyond understanding and as we enter into the last few days of this year we tend to take a moment and reflect. If I have to list all the blessings that God gave me in the last year it is as David wrote “to numerous to list”. Even so God is still moving things and putting things into place every day. 

It is with a grateful heart that I write to you today. My dear friend, God says that blessed is the man that trust in God and does not respect the proud. As we walk into today and fully commit to God and put all our trust in Him, He will put a new song in our mouths and praise unto God. In the midst of our battles we praise His name and many will see it and their hearts will turn. 

God is our help and our deliverer. May the Lord be magnified in everything we do today. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 12 December 2025

 

As I battle on with the challenges that surrounds me I find myself struggling with emotions. Jesus said you must love your enemy and believe me it is much harder than you think. I remind myself that Jesus was crucified by the very people that taught the scriptures. The very people that preached in the temple and His friend betrayed Him. 

Who am I that my life should be any different. I struggle with patience as it all has to follow a process and I wish that it could just pass. Even in my innocence and the struggles I face God is teaching me and preparing me for the seasons that lies ahead of me. My dear friend, Jesus said He is the way (you can’t get lost), the truth ( you can’t get deceived) and the life (you can’t die). In Him we find our peace and our strength and the very promises that all will turn out for good. 

No matter the depth of the pit nor the mountain that lies in front of you. He is eternal and He is ever present in every moment. He is actively busy working behind the scenes to place everything in place. That is why David wrote “I waited patiently for the Lord and He inclined unto me and heard my cry”. God will change your situation and He will deliver you from evil. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 11 December 2025

 

I am taking two verses from this chapter in Ezekiel because in essence I want to point out how careful we must be against idolatry. It can be very subtle and although idolatry revolves around objects and images, it is rooted in the human heart. 

Therefore it is in not enough to get rid of the physical thing we have made into an idol, although this must often be done. John Calvin wrote that the human heart is an idol factory. To put idolatry to death we must deal with fears and desires that have grown far larger than any created thing. 

Whenever we love something or someone in a way that is not dominated by the love for God, that love has degenerated into a proud and idolatrous lust. At the heart of the gospel is the call to turn away from such idols and give our obedience to God. That is why it is so important that we always seek the kingdom of God above all else and His Word above the world. 

When we give our lives to Jesus we die from that world and step into a new world above the idols and desires of this world. You are a new creation in Jesus Christ. God should always be first. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 10 December 2025

 

So many times people are deceived by the enemy. People turn to evil for their own need and sometimes they do not care who they destroy in the path. The enemy makes people believe that they can get away with lies and deceit and yet they forget God sees it all. This scripture is so for me today. With lies the enemy has brought great sadness and empowered the wicked scheme of man by promising them what is not theirs. God says that because of this they will not see visions (hope or prosperity) for God will rescue His people from their grasp and they will know He is God. 

Have an awesome day, my friend.

Today's thought - 09 December 2025

 

God is truly amazing. As I continue in this battle and we face the next phase God just gives me this Word. My dear friend, God says that He has given us victory. He is our strength and our song. No matter your battle whether it is sickness, sorrow, deceit against you, marriage or financial. 

God gives us victory. We stand in the authority that is given to our Lord Jesus Christ and in His victory over satan lies our victory over satan. Yes satan comes to steal, kill and destroy but his fight is powerless because in the end God has already defeated him and even if he brings the worst trials over you, you will be victorious because by our faith and our trust in God we will overcome and we will triumph at the end of it bringing glory to God. 

In the end all I have is my faith and my trust in God. I cannot change people’s minds or hearts. I can only tell the truth and share God’s Word. God directs the path of man and He will destroy the wicked and the righteous, the meek will inherit the land in other words be victorious by God’s grace. 

No one is above God and no one will be pardoned in His judgement when your heart is evil. Be good and do what is right, my friend even when it is hard. Love people even those who hurt you. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 08 December 2025

My dear friend, what a wonderful and amazing God we worship. His love extends the universe and His power lives within each one of us. Some days will be beautiful and sunny and others will be dark with storms. God is always there and as we walk every day facing trials and battle against the evil schemes of the enemy. We can walk with no fear. 

God will destroy the plans of the wicked and turn it against them. We will see them rise and see them fall. But for those of us who desire and delight in God and seek His Word and His guidance. Who live by His laws and give to those seeking. We will see God’s blessings in our lives and His wrath on those who do bad things. 

He will make a way in our troubles and fill our live with blessings. We will always have more than we need and we will always have God with us. What an amazing thing it is to know that God will move all things in place and carry you through all your battles. Always keep your eyes on the Lord and wait patiently for His guidance and for Him to change your battles. 

He will always help you. Deliver you. Save you. Just trust Him. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 07 December 2025

 

Jesus says here that we can ask Him anything in His name and He will do it. I do not think He meant a Ferrari or anything extravagant that will be our downfall but instead what we truly need and in this need the Father will be glorified through our faith. 

It is not what we ask but how we ask. You cannot trust God for something and you have your own backup plan incase God takes too long. My friend, faith without works is dead so is faith without trust meaningless. When God puts something in your heart, trust Him and follow Him. Nothing that God says can be stopped by man or anyone for that matter. 

All I ask is that you trust Him completely and you will se His hand at work in your life. Speak life over yourself and everyone else and you will see people grow where you speak over them. 

Have an awesome day my friend.

Today's thought - 06 December 2025

 

Many times we forget that God sees everything. He does not look at your good deeds or the outward appearance, but God sees the heart of man. God knows your thoughts and how you see and think of others. We can deceive the world, but we will never deceive God. 

When we give our lives to Jesus, God changes our stone hearts into hearts of flesh so that we can unite with Him and live out His Word. If we choose to ignore the Word of God and continue with “detestable things and their abominations”. Then God will turn that against them in not a good way. Jesus showed us how we must live out our lives. 

We must live in kindness, forgiveness and hope by showing the world around us the truth of the gospel and the life we have in Jesus. We are in the time of the year where people give us the opportunity to speak about Jesus and the power that is in His resurrection. My dear friend, God sees your heart, your struggles, your need and your pain and joy. 

He will surely change it all. Just trust Him and do not sin out of anger or distress but instead love and trust God. He will hear your prayer and move in your midst. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 05 December 2025

 

My dear friend, I write from my own experience and circumstances and how I perceive what God says to me today. God knows the storms we face and our Lord Jesus completely understands what we are going through. 

Today He is telling me that we should enter into His rest. God's rest is a state of spiritual peace and security found in trusting and ceasing from one's own efforts, rather than a rest from all activity. It involves relying on God's finished work, particularly through faith in Jesus Christ, and letting go of anxiety and self-reliance. 

Entering God's rest means to cease from self-focused labor and instead partner with God, trusting him to provide and work through you. Thus submitting to Him completely and to trust Him throughout your battle. It is in this place where we fully and completely rely on God so that we find the peace of God. 

And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 04 December 2025

 

The Lord is my shepherd. He is the very breath in my lungs. The light that shines in the darkness and His Word is a lamp to my feet. How wonderful is His promises and how amazing is His grace. As I read this Psalm, God just fills me with peace. 

Before me lies a mountain, but God is busy moving this mountain and He is opening doors. Even as I walk through this valley, He is with me and the world will see His power at work as He is with me and His rod and staff gives me comfort. 

As the enemy comes to steal, kill and destroy, God is preparing a table of victory in their presence and He anoints my head. My cup surely runs over. Only goodness and mercy will follow us all the days of our lives, because God will help us in a time of trouble and He will deliver us from evil. 

Trust God and commit your life to Him and He will make it come to pass. 

Have an awesome day, my friend.

Today's thought - 03 December 2025

 

How wonderful and amazing is the grace and mercy of our Lord God. How great is His love and how amazing is His Word. Jesus said you cannot live by bread alone, but by every Word that is from God. 

Paul writes that through Jesus we can enter boldly into the throne of our loving and gracious God where we will find the grace we need in our battles. I can only speak of His amazing grace and tell you that our God is a God who keeps His promises and He will move your mountains. He will lift you up and He will give you strength. He will heal you and protect you. 

He is unbelievable. My dear friend, nothing is impossible for God. Speak your victory out and trust Him for He will deliver the righteous and destroy evil. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 02 December 2025

 

This morning I write to you with this amazing Word. God says no eye has seen, no ear has heard and no mind has imagined the things God has already prepared for those who love Him.

 As I continue with my battles God brings this amazing peace over me confirming again today that He has already gone before us and He has already prepared something far greater than we could ever imagine. 

I love the Lord with everything in me and I stand on His Word trusting Him that this fight is alreay won. My dear friend, stand with me in faith as we trust God completely with all our hearts and delight ourselves in His Word and His ways and we will see His mighty hand at work. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 01 December 2025

 

This is an amazing scripture and in it lies a great promise. The Lord continues with me as He is my strength through my battle. Today God is going to shatter the strength of the wicked as He lovingly takes care of the godly. 

He will help us and deliver us from the wicked and He will save us, because we trust in Him. Your inheritance is in the kingdom of heaven and it is forever. My dear friend, God says that the wicked will fall by their own devices and He will destroy their evil schemes. Trust in God and do good and He will make all come to pass and the meek shall inherit the earth. 

Have an awesome day.
