The meek will posses the land. There is a great promise in this. It is the humble and kind that will take back their land and bring glory to the Lord. The wicked may prosper but they will fade and finally be no more.  

The wicked will plot against the poor (followers of Jesus), yet they will fall by their own devices. My dear friend, what has the enemy stolen from you. As the thief comes to kill and destroy, he will fail because God laughs because He knows what satan’s end will look like. He already defeated this world and its ruler. 

So, stand up and take back what was stolen. Cast down the enemy and stand in your victory and authority that is in Jesus Christ. Jesus said “Look, I have given you authority to tread on snakes and scorpions and on the full force of the enemy, and nothing will hurt you.”  

My prayer is that you will be bold and that God will give you strength and confidence to withstand the enemy and take back what was lost and that you will stand strong and unwavering in your storms. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 30 October 2025

Somehow we fall short of the “delight in the Lord” part. Interesting thing and I guess obvious is that the closer we move towards our purpose the more intense the attack of the enemy. 

Guilt has always been a stumbling block in my life due to the life I lived in my youth. The same attacks are now popping up as I am getting closer to my purpose in Jesus Christ. The only problem is that as the psalm starts here the Holy Spirit has already put this in place. 

So in other words even though the attacks are more I do not worry about the wicked nor am I concerned about their plans for it will be like grass and soon fade because I am rooted into the main branch, Jesus Christ and my past is dead to me as it is to God. 

My future is what is important thus I will take delight in the Lord and He will give me the desires of my heart. My dear friend, do not let the lies and deceit of the enemy steal your purpose or your dreams. Dream big because we worship a big God. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 29 October 2025

 

Satan is the father of lies and it is interesting how lies have become so normal in our society. People even go as far as calling it a little white lie. When the reality is sin is sin and a lie is a lie na mater how we sugar coat it. 

David writes here that the godly will rejoice when they see injustice avenged and that there is a reward for those who live for God. In essence it is a simple choice but the result of our choices determine the commitment we have towards God. 

My dear friend, the Word of God cannot be amended to suit our requirements but we must adjust our lives to match the Word of God. There is no other Word and there are no middle way. Yes, God’s love and grace is infinite but His judgement is equally real. Be careful for the deceit of the enemy in the tongues of man. Live to please God and not to grief the Holy Spirit. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 28 October 2025

 

I think we all reach a point where we feel that our joy is lost and we struggle with decisions and the results of our choices. Where we once danced in joy we are now filled with regret and sorrow. Life has a way of pulling a curtain over our eyes and we miss the beauty of God’s love and grace. 

I do not know what your week so far looked like nor can I stand in your shoes. Are you at a crossroad staring at decisions that must be made or are you in the after effect of choices made. I love how this scripture says “give us back the joys we once had”. 

My friend, as this day opens up and we go about our ways my prayer is simply that God will show you His will and His way. I pray that you will be filled with overwhelming joy and that the clouds that hang over you will fade away and turn into dancing. 

I pray the release of your burdens and the renewal of your mind so that you will have a new drive in you today. May you find peace in your decisions and joy in our Lord Jesus Christ.

 Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 27 October 2025

 

This world and its ruler feeds on fear and anxiety. In every aspect of your life they seek a place to enter doubt and fear into our minds. Worries and being overwhelmed breeds more areas for the enemy to grip you into self destruction. 

There are constant suicides and people are gripped into the very lies the enemy builds to a point where they give up. My dear friend, this scripture is vital to your growth and sanity in a broken world. 

Paul makes it clear just as Jesus said. Do not worry about anything (meaning nothing). Instead pray about everything. Take it all to God and lay it at His feet. Tell Him what you need and thank Him for it. This is vital because faith moves mountains. 

Once you gave it to God and thanked Him for the outcome you will experience His peace that surpasses all understanding and this peace will guard your heart and mind so that the enemy cannot pollute it. I pray that you will put all your challenges before God and trust Him completely and that His peace will overflow in you. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 26 October 2025

 

Paul writes here that he is able to be content in everything life throws at him. When he is need or when he has abundance, he still has content for he said we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. 

My dear friend, we should not put aside that which we have in Jesus. There is power in prayer and there is power in praise. When the storms hit today, step back and worship the Lord. Resist the enemy and stand firm in your faith. May the Lord of hosts, the God who created heaven and earth, our God supply in all your need according to His riches in glory by Jesus Christ. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 25 October 2025

 

I am in essence just a man that faces similar battles as you do each day. Sometimes we follow our own heads and it ends up in disaster and sometimes we listen and things are ok. 

God says that He will make all things turn out for good. I guess I question this somedays when I look back at what happened and I am again troubled by these events. The Holy Spirit knowing me so well gave me this scripture today so I can tell you to have hope. 

Have hope because this world and the ruler of this world can never consume us because God’s compassions never fail and they are renewed every morning. So, today you are standing in new compassions and mercy that God pours out on us.  

Do not lose hope nor faith no matter how desolate you feel. As the year draws to an end we are all tired and probably frustrated but God is faithful and He will carry you through your storms. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 24 October 2025

 

John here referring to Jesus who will baptise us with the Holy Spirit and with fire. The baptism of the Holy Spirit is just as important as we transform from our old self into the new that God has designed us to be. 

John says here that one mightier than he is coming. Now very important is what Jesus said: “I tell you the truth, anyone who believes in me will do the same works I have done, and even greater works, because I am going to be with the Father.” 

My dear friend, remember that we stand in the authority and victory that lies in Jesus and that He who is in us is a powerful life breathing God. This is why faith is so important in our journey. Seek the Holy Spirit today and work to have a more intimate relationship with Him. 

Let His voice be your guide and His wisdom lead you. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 23 October 2025

 

We serve a great and merciful God. Full of love and compassion. Guilt is the driving force in so many of satan’s schemes and attacks. He wants you to feel unworthy of God and the purpose before you. So many have lost their fire because of guilt. 

If we did not fail at times and fall at times, how can God teach us anything? It is more pride that steals salvation than guilt. So many dreams shatter because we make a mistake or fail in some way and then the enemy steals your destiny. 

Today you can stand up and petition satan to return all he has stolen from you knowing you serve a big and powerful God that gave up His Son, Jesus Christ so you can be free from the yoke of sin. God promises here that He is ready to forgive and abundant in mercy. 

Bring all that hinders your growth before God and let Him cleanse you of all guilt and sin by the precious blood of Jesus Christ. Then stand up, renew your mind through the Holy Spirit and take up the armour of God and step back into the fight. 

God will never leave you and He will protect you. Dream big dreams, because with God nothing is impossible. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 22 October 2025

 

What does it mean to follow Jesus? Jesus tells in Luke 14 of the man that invited all his friends to a feast and each had an excuse. He then told his servants to bring all the poor and blind and beggars until his house was full. Many are called but only few will answer. 

That is why Jesus said that you must take up your cross and follow Him. This means that you must turn your back to the world, be humble and follow His ways. Some will lose friends and even family and as Jesus says here in verse 8 that the cost can be great, yet the reward in heaven is beyond your imagination. 

Paul refers to life as a race that you must complete even though it can be very exhausting at stages. Jesus said if the world hates you, fear not for it hated Him first. This life will come at you with so many battles because you follow Jesus. 

Remember this: You are rooted in Jesus and you stand on a rock. Nothing can move you from His hand nor can anything destroy you. Take up your cross and follow Him completely. Fear not for the Lord your God goes before you. His rod and His staff bring comfort and He prepares a table in the presence of your enemies. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 21 October 2025

Sometimes I am confused and uncertain about situations or things that happen in my life. We all walk through life daily facing different challenges and battles. Sometimes they make sense and sometimes we are confused at what is happening. 

Sometimes we think God gave us this particular thing just to realise it was more like a test and we seem to have failed miserably. We question it and wonder why would God allow this when at first it seemed so right and then we realise no not so much. 

God brings seasons over our lives. Sometimes these seasons are testing our faith to make us realise what is still required to bring us into the next season where God needs us to be. God has compared Him to a potter that takes clay and forms it into a beautiful pot that can be filled with water and this water can bring refreshment to many. 

Jesus also said that springs of living water will flow from us. To be able to bring us in that place, God will continue to work on your life until you are ready. Be patient in times of trouble and challenges because every step leads to purpose. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 20 October 2025

 

I do not come to you with my wisdom but the wisdom and guidance of the Holy Spirit. I do not have the words to give you but only that which the Holy Spirit lays on my heart. I am nothing without God nor can I boast about anything I do for it is all God. 

This scripture lies heavily on my heart today. My dear friend when Jesus said He came to give life and life in abundance He destroyed sin and satan and gave us full authority over this world and its master. That is why this is so important that you know for you who love God the things He has in store for you are way beyond that you are able to do or imagine. 

This is part of hundreds of promises God makes in His Word that will bless your life and those around you. It is our success and blessings that others will be drawn to God. My dear friend, I cannot begin to tell you of the blessing that is in my life and on my life. It took some time for me to be here but now God can use me for I am exactly where He wants me to be. 

The same applies to you. Do not put God in a box but understand that when He moves the mountain trembles and rivers flows in dry lands. That is why we walk by faith. That is why we step into the unknown knowing God is for us. 

Do not fear but be strong and courageous. What is impossible for man is possible for God. Just give Him the right place in your life and go when He calls.  

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 19 October 2025

 

We are all called. When Jesus left to go up to heaven He made it clear that we should go out into the world and share the gospel with everyone. 

Jesus did not say to a certain group or culture or race, He simply said go to all the nations. All I guess means all. My dear friend, just as Jesus called James and John, He calls us. We are the light and the salt that infiltrates a dark and broken world. 

We are the voice and the joyful message. Jesus came to set the captives free and He is in heaven working through us by the amazing Holy Spirit. It is as much a privilege and our duty to share the Word of God. So, no matter where you are, be kind and love your neighbour. 

When God is for us, who can be against us and know this that no weapon formed against you will work. God is with you and He goes before you. Time is running out and the day of the Lord is getting closer. Do not be afraid to share the good news and tell people about Jesus. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 18 October 2025

 

We sing this song in our church with the words “Show me your face Lord, and I will make it to the end”. When the walls come down and the storm surrounds us we have the victory that lies in Jesus Christ. 

Every morning I step out of my prayer time I can feel God restoring me and just renewing me. Yes, the day brings many challenges but I can deal with them all by the grace and mercy God showers over my life and the strength that lies in His Word. 

My friend, never underestimate the power of prayer and the time you spend with God. There lies great peace in His presence and strength we so desperately need. Seek first the kingdom of God above all else. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 17 October 2025

 

This is just in my thoughts today. Not sure if it is me or the amazing way the Holy Spirit sometimes direct me, but it surely it is for you, my friend. 

God has a way to just rock our boats and set us on course. Walking out of the storm into deliverance and healing is beyond my own expectations. Now is the time to soar. Now is the time to run for God. 

Those who wait on the Lord will renew their strength. This is so important as we step into this day. It is simply this: With God there are no limitations. 

Stand firm in your faith as we walk by faith and not by sight. Walking and never be weary nor faint. If God is for us, who can be against us. No weapon formed against you today shall succeed. Be strong, my friend, because the battle is already won. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 16 October 2025

 

There is such a need amongst people for healing. We are moving closer into the end times and there will be a massive revival in this time. My dear friend, there is a hunger in every person to be set free from a life of burdens. 

I love how the passion translation says a tangible, supernatural power emanated from Jesus.  Now listen carefully: The same power that rose Jesus from the dead, is the same power that is in us. Jesus also stated clearly that we will do the same things He did and more. 

It all starts with love. When you love your neighbour you can show Jesus through your kindness. Jesus said that those who are weary and heavily burdened must come to Him. When you give your life to Jesus, He lifts up that worldly burden and replaces it with His love and grace. It is in Him that we find complete freedom, forgiveness and healing. 

This verse ends with all who came close to Him were healed. When you give your life to Jesus, He restores and heals. My friend, I pray that the same supernatural power flows into you today healing you from all that still hinders your life and your body. In the name of Jesus Christ. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 15 October 2025

 

Temptation comes in many forms. Sometimes it is something so familiar in our lives and we kinda see the red lights yet we consider all aspects and think that this is God’s plan. 

We even convince ourselves that this thing or situation or person is there because that is God’s plan. We can always find a hundred reasons why something will not be bad. When Jesus was tempted by satan, He consistently countered every attack by the Word of God. 

Thus analysing the situation and taking it to the Word to silence the enemy. That is what you need in your attacks. Seek God’s Word and put God first and then look at the outcome. When you turn to God away from the enemy’s lies you will ultimately resist his attack and he will have no choice but to leave. 

Be bold and be strong, my friend. The enemy is cunning and he knows your weakness. In Jesus lies our true strength and the only way to eternal freedom. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 14 October 2025

 

I do not know anyone that does not know this battle. I love how Pastor Don said it. You know every one looked at the size of the giant and feared him and David full of God’s anointing looked and maybe thought “This guy is so big, it is impossible to miss him”. What the world saw as an obstacle, David saw as opportunity. 

He knew who God is and he knew what God had already done in his life. He stood on the promises in the Word that God will never leave you nor forsake you and if He did it before, He will surely do it again. David knew God’s plan and He did not step into battle for his own glory, but for the glory of God. 

That is in essence the two most important things. Do not fear because we can do anything if God is for us and when we do, we should do for God’s glory. Nothing in this world and no battle will be too great. This is how God moves. In partnership with you. You go and God does. 

My dear friend, do not underestimate the power of God in your life nor be afraid to step into what God sets before you. He is faithful and He will stand on His promises and you will succeed no matter what the world says or thinks. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 13 October 2025

 

There are days when I think what a great job the enemy did. He tricks you into saying something or thinking something and when it is too late you realise your mistake. 

It is sad to know how many people seek the fall of Christians and they enjoy it when we go through tough times. What they do not know is that God put us through trials to teach us and prepare us so that when judgement comes we will not face the same end as those who rejected Jesus. 

Most important is that when we face these troubles with a joyous heart trusting God it will have an effect on others. They will see your joy regardless of your challenges and they will start to desire it too. Thus you become the very vessel that leads them to Christ. 

That is why Paul wrote “Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me.”  Stand strong today and do not allow the enemy a place at your table. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 10 October 2025

 

As I reach the end of Jeremiah it shows clearly that all the destruction of Jerusalem is a confirmation of what God told Jeremiah at the start of his ministry. 

This directly confirms that we can have confidence that all God promises and says in His Word will be fulfilled. This should encourage and energise our faith. 

This scripture is significant for it shows that Jehoiachin’s preservation is confirmation of God’s redemptive purpose for when Jesus would come. 

There needed to be a royal line of the seed of David. When everything seemed hopeless God did not forget His promise. 

My dear friend, God never forget His promises nor will He ever forget you. He loves you way too much. Be confident in your faith and stand firm on God’s Word. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 09 October 2025

 

In this life you shall have tribulation. Jesus was never unclear about this. I do not know your battles today nor can I possibly stand in your shoes, but I know God knows. 

He knows where you are and He knows how you feel. The enemy is relentless and I am sure we can agree to that, but always know this: He who is in you are far greater than he that is in the world. The Lord is always close to you and always ready to restore and heal. 

God promises that when bad things come He will save us and He will not allow these to defeat us. 

Jesus said: “I tell you the truth, anyone who believes in me will do the same works I have done, and even greater works, because I am going to be with the Father. You can ask for anything in my name, and I will do it, so that the Son can bring glory to the Father. Yes, ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it!”  

Have an awesome day, my friend.

Today's thought - 08 October 2025

 

My dear friend, what do you see when you look into the mirror? He or she that looks back at you, how do you see that person. Who do you identify with. 

The Bible says if you cannot love your neighbour whom you can see, how can you love your Father God that you cannot see. How can you love others if you do not love the person in the mirror. 

When we identify with the world, the world will amplify so called flaws in our image. When we identify with Jesus Christ we identify with God who created you perfectly in His image. My friend, the Bible says you are wonderfully and fearfully made. 

God knew you and saw your life before you were born. You were chosen and you are not a mistake no matter the origins. God looks at you and He sees His wonderful and beautiful creation that He loves so much He was willing to sacrifice His only Son for you. 

You are what you say over yourself. I pray that God will rejoice and restore your soul and that He will lift you up today and show you the beauty of His creation in you. I pray that all bondage from your past life will be broken and that you will be set free from the lies of the enemy into the truth of our Lord Jesus Christ. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 07 October 2025

 

We all face challenges and do life the best we can. I love how David writes further that he who trust in the Lord that mercy shall compass him (mercy: covenant, loyalty and love). 

My dear friend, when darkness tries to pull us down we find shelter in the Lord most high. He will preserve us when we face darkness and He will fill us with His amazing joy. 

The enemy hates praise and worship so rejoice in the Lord and let God show you the ways you should go, because nothing can stop God’s will. Let us worship our Father and hear His guiding voice today. 

As I said before, be patient and let go and let God. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 06 October 2025

 

My dear friend, I want to share this with you today. In life we will have someone that disappoints us or hurt us or gossip and lie about us. Jesus had this all through His life. 

Judas who was His friend and disciple betrayed Him. Jesus knew this long before it happened and still loved him hoping that he will come to his senses. Who are we to hate our enemies or those who hurts us when Jesus not just preached it, but lived it. 

Yes God can move mountains and He can change any situation or heart. But moving a mountain is not just pick up and go. There is planning, things need to move or get out of the way. A new place must be prepared and then the mountain can move. 

Once moved the now open and barred area must be restored and rebuild and the land must heal. Do not lose hope if your mountain is still there. God moves in His time, because He considers all aspects which we miss. 

God is good and He only wants what is best for you. So love unconditional. Give without expectations and give more time to God. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 05 October 2025

 

The world we live in can be a very enticing with all the nice things we get today. It was not easy to remember Jerusalem when the Jews saw the splendour of Babylon. 

Living with sin all around us can affect our spiritual vitality. We can so easily be tempted by earthly ambition and pleasure that can be our downfall so quickly. From the beginning man was tempted by power en material things and today the enemy has a vast world of social media and access to the internet that can open a world of deceit in mere seconds. 

It is imperative that we do not love and desire the things of this world for they will perish and pass away just like Babylon. We must strive to set our affections on things above and put our treasure in heaven. 

Put God first and seek Him above all else because eternity is a very very very long time. A little bit of God is far greater than all this world can offer. Stand firm and seek the guidance of the Holy Spirit and His love and grace will carry you through it all. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 04 October 2025

 

In us lives the Holy Spirit. He is a kind and loving God that literally walks every step of the way with us. He is a Spirit of resurrection and restoration. 

He takes that which was damaged by the world and transforms it into a strong and courageous person. He renews and heals. He teaches and guides. 

He reveals and shows. He is a living person dwelling in you with feelings and emotions and thoughts. He shares and reveals God’s plan and He protects by warning us. He is a wonderful and amazing God. 

My dear friend, I cannot emphasise it more how important it is that you get to know the Holy Spirit. Seek Him and spend time with Him. He so desires to spend time with you. Be part of your day to day work and thoughts. 

You are His priority, so please also make Him yours. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 03 October 2025

 

The passion translation just opens Romans 8 so nicely. I just want to put this in your thoughts today: if God is for us, who can be against us. I think in this lies so much power. 

Consider for a moment you have the Holy Spirit living in you. The same power that raised Jesus from the dead resides in you. 

Now put this together - God dwells in me and if He is for me what can possibly get me down, hurt me, take from me, curse me, damage me, joke about me, gossip, lie or even destroy. 

If God was willing to give His only Son for your salvation, how much more will He not give that which is truly in your best interest. My dear friend, God is for you in every way and you are a son/daughter of the most high. Take on today knowing this and meditating on this every moment. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 02 October 2025

 

Our path is set and determined by God. In essence the cloud of witnesses is not primarily given for support or moral encouragement but also serves like witnesses  in courtroom for God’s redemptive purposes. 

Lay aside the sins that beset us especially unbelief and apostasy. Then we run the race. So, basically we should change or allow the Holy Spirit to change the way we think and walk by faith knowing God’s intensions and purpose is for good. 

God states it clearly in Jeremiah: For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 

My dear friend, come with me as we run the race set before us in faith knowing we already have the victory in Jesus and the authority to step on the attacks of the enemy as we push on with endurance and courage. 

Look up at the mountain. Where does your strength comes from? Your strength is from God who made heaven and earth. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 01 October 2025

 

Jeremiah gives us a beautiful picture here of conversion. In the mercy and grace of our Lord God, He brings about true contrition in the hearts of His people. 

They weep over their sins and return not only to their land but also to God. Conversion is not a movement of the body but a motion of the heart, turning away from sin in humility, brokenness, and grief and turning to the Lord in desire and hope. 

It is in that humble conviction that we find true forgiveness and salvation. When we help others in their conversions we should be careful that our intentions are for God’s glory and not our own. Nobody is too lost to be saved. 

It is so important that we love unconditionally and seek God’s will in everything. Sometimes the only Jesus people will see before conversion, is you. 

Be humble and kind and allow God to move in His time. 

Have an awesome day, my friend.

Today's thought - 30 September 2025

 

God is a mountain moving, chain breaking, forgiving and merciful God. When God moves the earth shakes. The enemy tremble and people are set free. 

I urge you again that we put God first in all we do. It is so important that we know who He is. Solomon wrote the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom. Fear here is being humble and to respect. God can break any chains of those who are willing but those who are arrogant and rebellious (unwilling) will dwell in a dry land never understanding why they never have peace. 

Anyone can be saved and anyone can be set free from worldly bondage. My friend, let us love others and show God to a world hardened by circumstances. 

Be kindhearted and guided by the Holy Spirit as we walk out into our day. If you for some reason are still bound by old wounds or current misfortune, I pray that you will be set free today and renewed in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. 

No mountain is too high and no valley to deep for God to change anyone and anything. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 29 September 2025

 

This verse in the King James states “exceeding abundantly above all”. The passion puts it so nicely. Firstly I have to say that prayer works and to intercede has a greater effect than you can ever imagine. 

In my lowest I get energised to do more give more and continue longer and that is not because I am fit but purely because you interceded for me. Truly I say to you that we should really take a moment and just let the Holy Spirit open this scripture in your heart. Do not doubt God’s power and never minimise Him. 

He will do and accomplish far more in your life than you can possibly imagine. His power surely works in us in ways I cannot explain, but believe me it is amazing. My dear friend, today I pray God’s grace and power over you. 

I pray that you will be renewed and strengthened and that you will walk into this day with Godly courage and persevere in your race to be victorious. Again I ask love everyone unconditionally and seek God more. For it is by love that we are different to a lost world and by love we can truly show the heart of Jesus. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 28 September 2025

 

How are you, my friend? God is good - all the time. There is nothing you did or can do that is too much for God’s forgiveness and His mercy. It is the enemy that tries so hard to deceive us to think we are beyond forgiveness. 

I love this Psalm. Be merciful O Lord - how many times do we slip or make a mistake or say or think something wrong. 

You O Lord lift up my soul - how many times are we tired and broken from the burdens we take. You are abundant in mercy - all through His life on earth Jesus loved and served and despite the pain and suffering He still took all our sins to the cross. We will never be able to fully comprehend God’s mercy and grace. 

Give ear O Lord to my prayer - my dear friend. God listens all the time. He sees all, knows all and hears all of our prayers. 

Paul writes: Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 27 September 2025

 

I think the Holy Spirit brought me to Ephesians 3 today for encouragement. I do not know what your week was like but mine was tough. I don’t know if you ever reached that place where there is nowhere else but God to go to. 

You finally come to the end of yourself and you stand humbly before God and there are for a moment no words but just His presence. I love how Paul writes we have boldness and access with confidence. And then he says do not lose heart in tribulations (his and yours). 

He goes on saying that God will grant you to be strengthened by the Holy Spirit in the inner man (woman). The Spirit strengthens faith by which Jesus is present in the heart of the inner man. This will make us believers strong and stable in our assurance of God’s love. 

My friend, my prayer is simple today: May God grant you all the grace and strength you need to pass all tribulations. In the mighty name of Jesus. 

Have an awesome day.

Today's thought - 26 September 2025

 

I just want to share this with you today. We are all one in Jesus Christ and we all stand in this on the promise that was given to Abraham. In the baptism where we put away our old self (ways) and put on a new person transformed through Jesus Christ we inherit the promise given to Abraham. Thus you are by right blessed by God and free from judgement. 

There are nothing that separates or split us from this. Not race or gender or position or group that separates us but we are all one in Jesus Christ. My dear friend, show God’s love to everyone you meet and love unconditionally. 

Without love we are nothing because God is love. You cannot love God but hate your neighbour. Come with me today and let us love one another and defeat the lies of the enemy by helping others carry their burdens. Your battles may seem unbearable today but know this. I stand in prayer behind you fighting for you. 

I love you my friend. You are wonderfully and fearfully made. 

Have an awesome day.

Some days it feels as if I am my own greatest enemy. Paul writes it so nicely in Galatians  5: So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. 

For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever you want. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. 

As we continue in our walk we will face days where we are in conflict with our old or rather default self. My dear friend as you battle with this seek God more and rely on His divine interaction. David writes bend down oh Lord and hear me. 

I am going to change it slightly. Father hear our plea and our need as we are challenged. Hear our cry for help and save us from falling as we desire to serve you and trust you. You are our God and nothing is impossible for you. 

Rescue your children and realign us with your will. 

Have an awesome day, my friend.

Every day we are tormented by a relentless foe who so desperately seeks our demise. The battle is in our minds as the enemy tries everything to mislead us and fill our heads with lies. 

He is relentless and cunning and it is so important that we are vigilant. Today my prayer for you is that God will teach us His ways so that we can walk in truth and glorify His name. 

I pray God’s anointing over your life and that He will rescue you from darkness and deliver you from the enemy. To set your feet upon His rock and steady you on your path. 

I pray His mercy and strength over you today and that you will succeed in every challenge that lies ahead. 

Have an awesome day, my friend.

I always come back to Ephesians 4 or rather the Holy Spirit brings me back here many times. Paul starts by saying he is a prisoner to the Lord and then continues to say you must walk worthy of your calling. When he says prisoner he is exclaiming his bond to Jesus. 

Once you are in prison you are confined to the role and regulations of a prisoner. You are bound by the laws and regulations of that institution. 

Paul explains his statement by saying you must walk worthy of the calling and to love with humility, patience and enduring all with self-control. This is a guideline on how to live your life and living it in relationships in your daily walk and then he adds in love. In essence we must live a life worthy of God’s calling in humility and love for others. 

It is important that we die to our old self and embrace our new life in Jesus Christ. 

Give God the right place in your life, then all else will fall into place. 

Have an awesome day.

It is interesting how God shows grace to Elam and Egypt but not to Damascus and Edom. God showed grace to Jacob but not to Esau. 

God reminds me today to never take His grace for granted. It is important that not all who calls themselves Christian will be saved. 

Jesus made it clear that he who saves his life will lose it and he who loses his life will save it. You cannot worship two gods. It is important that we understand God’s grace and that we always earnestly seek His grace trusting in His promise that all who come to Him will be saved. 

Come with me today, my friend as we take up our cross and dedicate our lives to our Lord. I pray that God will give you the strength and desire to do what pleases Him. Be humble in your journey and seek His amazing presence. 

Have an awesome day.

My dear friend, I am here to remind you today that fear is a liar. Darkness can never defeat the light and the light seperates us from a world that is broken. 

The shepherd calls His sheep and they know His voice. The Holy Spirit speaks into our hearts and we know His voice. The still small voice that brings wisdom and guidance into our daily walk. 

Be not afraid, my friend, for the Lord our God is the very light of our salvation. A fortress protecting us from all evil. D

o not let pride mislead you but remain humble before the Lord our God. He will move your mountains and uplift you in the midst of your battle. 

Have an awesome day.

It is amazing how the enemy comes to steal from us. This morning, I completely overslept and for a moment I could feel the enemy encamp against me as he expected me to lay down in defeat. Instead, I submitted to God, and I got up in confidence. 

I can pray for my list all the way to work. The Lord lifted me up above my enemies and I rejoiced in His mercy for blessing me with a little more sleep after a week of many battles. Today, my friend, let us ignore the attacks of the enemy. 

Let’s seek God’s face as I pray that He will not hide His face from us but instead show Himself and not turn away from us. I pray that we will see His mighty hand at work all through this day as our joy comes in the morning and strengthens us. 

God is the God of our salvation and the rock on whom we stand. Nothing can pull us out of His love nor is anything impossible for our God. 

Have an awesome day, my friend.

Today's thought - 19 September 2025

 

As my storms rise and my challenges increase, I will extol the Lord my God for He is lifting me up from my pit and as the enemy attacks they will not defeat me. 

I may stand in the midst of one battle after the next, yet I will rejoice in my God for I called out to Him and He is healing me. We are all facing challenges and battles. Some is visible and some not so much. My friend, you are not fighting alone. 

Paul wrote in Galatians 6: “Share each other’s burdens, and in this way obey the law of Christ. If you think you are too important to help someone, you are only fooling yourself. You are not that important”. 

You are not alone in your fight today. I pray that God places some of your burden on me as I will help you fight. Stand firm in your faith because we can do all things through Jesus Christ. Be strong, my friend, God is with us, and He will help us overcome all. 

Have an awesome day.

I still make mistakes. I get upset and impatient and I say the wrong thing or do the wrong thing. It is important that we stay humble before God and in our daily lives. 

God can teach and guide a humble heart in His ways. God’s ways are mercy and truth, and we must strive to live as Jesus did. He is the blueprint for a humble and grace filled life. 

David writes here “For Your name’s sake pardon my iniquities”. God forgives us our sins not for who we are or what we do, but because of who He is. He is our creator and the Lord of hosts. And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. 

Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord. 

Have an awesome day.

It is weird how our emotions and carnal needs can alter our minds and set us flying down the wrong path. 

This weekend our Pastor said “Put your faith in action”. I love that and that is why we walk by faith and not by sight because faith is the evidence of things not seen. 

So, today let us trust in God and ask Him to lead us in His truth and teach us His paths and show us His ways. He is our salvation and let’s seek Him in everything we do. 

How God moves and works in my life is beyond amazing and how He guides, restores and protect me is beyond my own understanding. Love Him with all your heart, my friend. He will never let you be ashamed and your enemies will never triumph over you.  

Have an awesome day.

The enemy hasn’t stopped his continious afflictions on me. My battle rages on. Each one of us are fighting a battle. Just as I am bombarded with memories and negative thoughts the enemy knows your weaknesses also and will continue to press on them to bring you down. 

His main goal is to steer us into sin and pull us away from God. He wants to create doubt in our minds and an unworthy mindset. He wants to give dispair and depression a grip in your day then he will control your emotions. I love this Psalm. 

My enemies are many and they hate me. I am afflicted and desolate and God can see my affliction and my pain. The result in all this is simply: My eyes are toward the Lord. 

He will keep my soul and deliver me for I will not be ashamed because my trust is in the Lord God and His integrity and uprightness will perserve me as I wait patiently on the Lord. Be strong, my friend. The enemy already lost. 

Have an awesome day.

What is time?

Time is consistent.

Time is ever present and always there.

Time is powerless and also powerful.

Time can be chased, and time can be lost.

Time can be wasted, and time can be saved.

Time is always moving and it never stops.

Sometimes we have a lot of time and sometimes we do not have enough.

Time can rescue you and time can destroy you.

Time is running out and how do you spend your time. 

Do you cherish your time with people or do you wish the time to go by. 

Do you invest your time or do you waste it. 

When you are at the end of your time how would you look at the time you were graciously blessed with or do wish you had more.

Do you value and use every second gratefully knowing it is a gift, or do you spend it hoping it will last you longer. 

When you look at the time you had today, how much did you waste being angry and upset. 

How much did you waste worrying. 

How much did you waste doing what you were not supposed to do. 

How much did you lose because you could not get out of bed.

How much of your time today was spent wisely and invested in your life that is waiting after this life, when your time here runs out. 

Do you have a treasure in heaven or are you still in debt. 

The minute you realize that every minute wasted is a minute closer to the end, what would you have done differently? 

Then start doing that. 

Invest your time in the Kingdom of God and you will have time in abundance. 

Time is precious and unfortunately most of us only realize this when your time has run out.

Some days I find myself dwelling in the past looking back at what I went through and the sorrow that lies in that. You get this heavy feeling and you feel sadness enter in your morning. It is mornings like this that you just want to stay in bed and forget the things that fills you mind. 

My dear friend, the enemy is cunning. He knows how to take circumstances and bring back memories by putting thoughts in your head. It can be past experiences or current challenges. He will try to grip your morning in depression and steer you away from God. 

God says here in Jeremiah to get your armour and prepare for war. In verse 27 God says fear not nor be dismayed for He will save us from afar. When we step into God presence and call His name, the enemy will flee for they fear God. 

He will step into your dispair and your pain and steer you to still waters. He will restore your soul and lead you to paths of righteousness. Do not give satan place in your day but stand firm on Jesus. Your joy comes in the morning. 

Have an awesome day.

This is one of my favourite things in the time Jesus was here teaching people. Many came to believe in Him even this centurion. I love his child like faith and his amazing humility. How often do we see the arrogance and pride of people. 

Yesterday I asked what kind of a tree are you and today and want to ask you: How do you stand before God? Are you telling God how to do things? Are you giving God advice? Are you impatient with Him? Do you see His Word as a guideline but your way seems better? My dear friend, look at what this centurion says. 

He did not see himself worthy to come before Jesus nor his home worthy of God’s presence. We have to right size God and understand who He is. How small are we in the universe and how great is God in His creation. 

God created it all by speaking a word and He holds us in His hand each day. When you start to understand your dependance on God and His place in your life, an entire new perspective is formed and we think different, react different, love different and even walk different. 

I pray that God will become more evident in your life and that all your challenges will be like fog before the sun. 

Have an awesome day.

Personally to me these verses goes hand in hand with identity and authority. A good tree bears good fruit when rooted into good soil and is well watered. In the same we bear fruit if we are rooted in Jesus Christ. 

This means that the old is dead and we are a new creation. Our identity shifted from a worldly one to Jesus Christ. When this happens it means that we now stand in His authority because that is what He gave us due to His resurrection. 

We have a higher authority and we have unlimited power. When you give your life to Jesus you become an ambassador of heaven. It is so important that we think before we talk. We have to glorify God in our thoughts, words and actions. What kind of a tree are you going to be today?  Yes I know your first thoughts was thorn tree. 

My dear friend, let the Holy Spirit give you the right words. Act out of love not anger and bless instead to curse. Be kind and mindful of other but most of all, seek God and His glory every moment. 

Have an awesome day.

In this chapter in Jeremiah Baruch seems to have the wrong idea of God’s prophecy and his worldly things mattered more. What I want to focus your attention on is simply this. God says “What I have built, I will break down”. 

In some cases like myself God needs to break me down until there was nothing left of the person I was. I had to lose everything twice until all that was left is a broken vesel. Then God could rebuild that vesel into a vesel of honor. 

He needed to fully destroy all resistance so that I had nothing left except Him and to Him I had to turn and submit completely. Then God was able to change my entire perspective and changed my direction and finally alligning me with His plans. 

Sometimes we need to humble ourselves before God and block out all the noise of the world and just seek Him. I find so much strength and direction when I am in His presence. So, do not look at your challenges as a problem but change your perspective so that your challenges grows your faith. 

When we are weak, we are strong and I will rejoice in my problems, because it increases my faith. 

Have an awesome day.
