91 Days of Victory – Day 53 (2026/04/21)

 

Paul writes in Romans 7 “I don’t really understand myself, for I want to do what is right, but I don’t do it. Instead, I do what I hate”. In Psalm 53 we are remined that God looks from the heavens at the world and He wants to see if we truly understand the responsibility we have towards the kingdom of heaven. Sin creeps into our lives to derail us from our purpose and our relationship with the Lord. My dear friend, I, off all is the king of sinners, and I make mistakes every day. What is important is our hearts in this and how we come before our Father when we have made a mistake or sinned against Him. It is simple and I am taking you to verse 5 where David writes “Terror will grip them, terror like they have never known before. God will scatter the bones of your enemies. You will put them to shame, for God has rejected them”. As the enemy comes to steal and destroy, God will restore you. He will heal your heart as the blood of our Lord Jesus Christ removes sin and destroy your enemies. Paul writes in Romans 7, “Thank God! The answer is in Jesus Christ our Lord”. And then he says in Romans 8, “So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. And because you belong to him, the power of the life-giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to death”. The enemy wants to steal your joy and break your relationship with the Lord. Stand up, my friend and let us return to our Lord and let His blood heal us from our mistakes and wash us clean. Let our redemptive hearts allow God to give us the wisdom and strength to face all temptations and trials and let us be victorious. The enemy has no power over you and the same power that raise Jesus from death lives in us. Be strong and face your battles with determination and allow the Holy Spirit to guide you away from sin and into an intimate relationship with Him, for the glory of our Lord. Have an awesome day.

91 Days of Victory – Day 52 (2026/04/20)

 

Identity can be a thing many struggle with and many would seek the wrong acceptance and confirmation via many destructive methods or mediums. I love how our Pastor is so outspoken about social media and how so many show a made up and incorrect image of their true selves as they try to be someone or something they are not or rather should not be. I love this image David creates here in Psalm 52 where he says, “I am like an olive tree, thriving in the house of God”. What an amazing image because Olive trees hold a special significance in Christianity. Their slow growth means that faith in God is a lifelong journey of devotion and commitment. The olive tree's biblical meaning is one of blessing, peace, and purity. The plant represents the beautiful relationship between God and the people. As David continues and writes that he will trust in the name of the Lord in the presence of his people. This morning I want to remind you that as we face life and life in all its many areas and challenges both good and bad, we should always trust in the name of Jesus. There is so much in His name, it comes with abundance and authority and most of all, it comes with peace. Let us be that olive tree in the kingdom of God which represents peace, longevity, wisdom, and divine blessing. It stands for resilience and new beginnings and signifies enduring strength and reconciliation. Let us be the branch that is rooted in our Lord Jesus Christ so we may be fruitful in everything we face. Have an awesome day, my friend.

91 Days of Victory – Day 51 (2026/04/19)

Oh, give me back my joy again; you have broken me - now let me rejoice. I want to add on to my message yesterday. I wrote about being grateful and how we miss the little things in our lives and how quickly we forget what God did for us to get us where we are. Give me back my joy is my opening here and to be honest I believe that getting back our joy lies in how we are grateful for everything we have and what we went through. In the midst of our difficulties, God is right there with us. The Bible says in Deuteronomy 5; “The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged”. In Isaiah 45 God says, “I will go before you and will level the mountains; I will break down gates of bronze and cut through bars of iron”. God has done so much for us and continues to do, so my prayer is “Create in me a clean heart, O God. Renew a loyal (right) spirit within me”. In other words, make me the man I must be when you saw me before you created me. Renew my thoughts and turn them into thanksgiving so that I will have your joy. Renew my grateful heart so that the brokenness in me is healed and restored. Then let me rejoice wherever I go so that the world will know you are God and in you I will soar like an eagle and run and never go weary. I will have peace and strength to face anything. Have an awesome day, my friend.

91 Days of Victory – Day 50 (2026/04/18)

 

A grateful heart is a blessed heart. We live in a world where people love to complain and most of the time, they complain without seeing what they are blessed with. They complain about their jobs, but they have a job. They complain about their houses, but they have a roof over their heads. They want another car, but they can drive to work. They complain about their weight, but they are able to walk. How often do we miss what we have and what God has blessed us with. How often do we not see the little things that brought us where we are. I love this in Psalm 50: “Make thankfulness your sacrifice to God”. It is in our humility and with grateful hearts that we can step into God’s presence and worship Him for His grace and mercy. Psalm 50 says “Our God approaches, and he is not silent. Fire devours everything in his way, and a great storm rages around him”. This is the God we serve. Not a small God but one who can devour everything in His way and yet He loves each one of us that His thoughts about us are like the sand on the earth. So much so that He gave His son to die for our faults. How much more grateful should we be. Here are a few scriptures to align our minds and thoughts. 

I will give thanks to you, LORD, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonderful deeds (Psalm 91). 

Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you (1 Thessalonians 5). 

Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever (Psalm 107). 

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God (Philippians 4). A

nd whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him (Colossians 3). 

Have an awesome day, my friend.

91 Days of Victory – Day 49 (2026/04/17)

Why should I fear when trouble comes, when enemies surround me? Many foes put their trust in their wealth or their positions, and they believe because of this power they can control, manipulate and destroy people. This Psalm basically emphasizes the fact that nothing that we have or possess can buy salvation or benefit us in anyway when we die of when Jesus returns. In verse 8 it clearly says that there is no sum of money that can redeem us from death or to live forever. For those the grave will become their eternal home, and hell will be the outcome of a life lived for idols and not for God. Coming back to my initial statement so why should I fear. David wrote that even if I walk through the valley of death I fear not for God is with us. His rod and His staff bring comfort in knowing that our enemies will not have the last say and that God’s Word is unshakable. Faith has a voice but so does fear. We must decide which one will shout the loudest. Which one will dominate the battle in our minds, and will we die or will we live. It is important that we shut out the voices that supports death and seek out the voices that brings life to the dead areas. Just as the Shunammite woman said “It will be well” we must also profess over our lives and the situations we face that it will be well. You cannot take your possessions nor your wealth to the grave, so do not be dismayed when your enemies prosper, but instead bless them and remember all things are possible to those who believe and as we stand on God’s promises we must keep our minds focussed on those promises and not go back to our old ways but continue to seek the kingdom of God above all else. God said if you look for Him with your whole heart, you will find Him. If you continue to believe in the midst of your worst battles, you will see God. Have an awesome day, my friend, your battles is just a minor obstacle in a path towards eternity. Be of good cheer because Jesus has done it all.

91 Days of Victory – Day 48 (2026/04/16)

 

Guidance. Honestly, I ask the Holy Spirit for guidance every day. Somedays I have this thought that some people maybe just need a five-point guidance. You know, the slap in the face type and then I realize that my thoughts are probably not in line with the Word of God, but it could help. Just kidding. Anyway, back to guidance, now I love this verse in Psalm 48 where we are given clear confirmation that God will guide us. Jesus said, “And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever”. We have the most amazing and most awesome helper living is us. He is our comforter and our counsellor and the one who guides us in every one of our battles. It is amazing how He puts words in our heads and guides us when we are not sure what to say or pray. I love His gentle way and the soft voice that sometimes can be very stern. My dear friend, I know things can be hard and I know sometimes we are dealt hands that we honestly do not deserve and sometimes we just want to go home and sleep and hope when we wake up it is all gone. The truth is, it won’t and it will get harder and it will feel impossible at times but remember he who loses his life for Jesus will gain his life in eternity and all we do is not for this world, but what lies ahead. Yesterday I sat with those guys on the street, and I spoke to them about salvation and I made it clear that no one is more important to God than another and their salvation is equally important to God than mine, and this world is a mere moment. It does not matter if you live on the street or in a palace, God loves you equally and He thinks about you just as much as any other. The Bible says as much as the hair on your head is God’s thoughts about you. Now, that is something to get you excited about every promise in the Word. Be of good cheer, my friend, because Jesus has already overcome it all. Have an awesome day.

91 Days of Victory – Day 47 (2026/04/15)

 

I wish I could give you a three-step plan to success. There are so many clever people in the world nowadays and a lot of them write books about steps. Five steps to a better life, seven steps to a greater marriage, six weeks to a six pack, seven days to better health or three steps to success. Jesus made it simple yet it can be very hard. He simply said I am the way. There is no other way, but through Him, by Him and with Him. We face many trials and on some days, they are too much for us and on other days we can deal with them and some days we just wish it will stop. Paul writes and I have mentioned it before that God’s grace is enough and he Paul, is content in the good and the bad. Paul changed his name from Saul (his Hebrew name) to Paul (his roman name) when he started out as an apostle for Jesus. In was common for Jews in that era to have a Hebrew and a roman name. To me it means that Paul died of his old life (persecutor) to his new life (apostle). He just did it spiritually and literally. As he took on his roman name, he also took on his responsibility to carry the gospel into the world. Maybe we should also shake of our Saul personality and take up our Paul mentality. From broken to restored, from lost to saved, from hurt to healed, from fear to victory, from worry to hope, from worldly to Godly, from condemned to heaven bound, however you look at it we are victorious through Jesus Christ and His way is not an easy way but as He said He will give you rest and He as overcome this world but the path to heaven is narrow and difficult. Paul writes that he rejoices in his trouble because when he is weak, he is strong. Today the Lord reminds me that He will put our enemies under our feet. He is an awesome God, and anything is possible for those who believe. Have an awesome day, my friend, there is nothing to difficult for God and His thoughts about us are thoughts of peace.

91 Days of Victory – Day 46 (2026/04/14)

 

Honestly yesterday could not have been worse. From the moment I woke, I was in a battle. My work and the amount overwhelmed me, and I got frustrated and irritated and finally angry. Then the battle with my daughter, the whole court case got the better of me and finally it seemed as if everyone and everything was coming at me with some sort of weird thing. My first wife was funny, and in the end, I worked until eight to try and get done what needed to be done. In the end I had failed, fallen and probably grieved the Holy Spirit more than I should have. I could not get up today and finally driving to work seemed pointless. Sin is designed to destroy us and if we allow it to control us we fall into the trap the enemy so cleverly and obviously places. His tactics never changes, we just become susceptible to it, and we allow it in. How do we defeat or overcome when we are weak and vulnerable. God simply says “I am your refuge and your strength. I am always ready to help in times of trouble”. All we need to do is to turn to Him, get our attitudes right, ask Him for help us and listen to His Word. God says here in Psalm 46 that we should become still and know His is God. To me that means that we should block the voices of the world and allow the Holy Spirit, that still small voice to speak into our hearts and allow God to be God. He will step in at the right time and clear our paths and open the doors we need. We have to remain strong and patient in the Lord. Have an awesome day, my friend.

91 Days of Victory – Day 45 (2026/04/13)

 

I am tired from a weekend full of work and running between soccer, my daughter and the church and I can feel it all getting to a point where I am overwhelmed by circumstances and worries. God simply says that His throne is forever and this world remains a temporary residence to us. God is a God of justice and He hates evil. He has anointed us to walk into this world and carry with us every where we go the gospel. Living it, telling it and sharing it wherever we go. Some days it can be difficult and some days it is easy, the important part is where we draw our strength from. My dear friend, your strength comes from God who created the heavens and the earth. Seek the kingdom of heaven above all else. Have an awesome day.

91 Days of Victory – Day 44 (2026/04/12)

 

Those who are a thorn in the side of the enemy will always be under attack and remember he is a cunning enemy who wants to devour you at every corner. We are reminded today that all will be well. It is in our words that we either lose the fight or win the fight. It is our response to difficult situations or unexpected events that determines the outcome. God simply says that we must trust in Him and the words that He speaks and the promises that lies in the Bible. God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. In Psalm 44 I am remined that we do not rely on our own bow or our sword (our own plans and solutions), but we rely on and trust in God because He has already given us victory and He has already overcome this world and He has already defeated satan and He has already defeated sin. We are free from bondage so live free from it. Speak life over every challenge and stand with me in agreement that all will be well all the time. But those who wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint. Have an awesome day, my friend.

91 Days of Victory – Day 43 (2026/04/11)

Why do we get discouraged? Why do we get sad? Sometimes it is a situation or sometimes it is pain or sometimes it is someone. Day by day we live to do what we have to do to survive, and we try to get along with all the stuff and things around us. We work, we eat, we love, we share, we sleep and we live. Sometimes darkness comes at the most unexpectant time or moment and we are steered into a storm of trouble that leaves us unprepared or even weakened or exposed. David must have had many days when he was overwhelmed by situations or enemies, and he often writes about these days. One thing David did that I believe is mostly the essence of his success and that is, that he always went to God first every time before he made a decision or when he was in despair. He writes here in Psalm 43: “Why must I wander around in grief, oppressed by my enemies? Send out your light and your truth; let them guide me. Let them lead me to your holy mountain, to the place where you live. There I will go to the altar of God, to God - the source of all my joy”. This by far is the essence of how we will succeed and overcome all things. By simply putting our hope in God. And praise him again and again. He is our Savior and our God. Have an awesome day, my friend.

Words and pictures

They say a picture paints a thousand words, but sometimes our vision is blurry, and we miss the heart in the picture. I have walked many paths in this life and none of them perfect and I have made many mistakes, and they were all my choices. It is when we find ourselves on the mountain looking down into the valley that we forget how deep and how difficult the valley was. We forget the blood that saved us when we were lost and we neglect the very things that brought us to the top of the mountain.

We become ignorant to the little things as we desire only the bigger more visible things. A broken heart can be healed but a broken spirit takes resurrection power to be restored. Now we look into a mirror that is vague and distorted, and we look and see not what is before us, but what is behind us. It is a fallen mentality that drives us into despair and hurt, and loss becomes the very altars we build.

We look but we do not see. We seem fine yet we are sad, we smile yet there is pain in our expression. We carry scars but the world cannot see them. We hurt yet we do not show it.  We get up, we carry on but we do not know how far we will go before the wheels come off and the end of our rope is all we have in our hands. Life is a mere moment in comparison to what awaits us in eternity. Yes, we may face impossible odds, are they impossible.

Maybe from a worldly human perspective, but looking from a resurrection perspective,  I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Jesus is alive and the same power that rose Him from death is in us. This world will fill your head with lies and deceit, but the Word of God is truth and in it we find all the answers we need to overcome anything.

The enemy may think he is winning but Jesus said, “I am the resurrection and the life” and He has defeated everything for us on that cross. It is done, so let it be done. Stop looking for the living among the dead, our God is alive and in Him is life and life in abundance. You can do anything through Christ who strengthens you so prophesy over the dead areas and speak life over everything.

Believe it and live it.

91 Days of Victory – Day 42 (2026/04/10)

 

As the deer pants for the water brooks, so pants my soul for You, O God. This morning my soul, my heart just longs and desires God. Paul writes in Romans 10: “There is no one righteous, not even one”. We all fall short, but we are all made new by the blood of Jesus, and we all have Him living in us. Our Pastor said this morning there is power in you. Jesus’s location is in you because as He is in you, so are you in Him and because He is I am. There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit (Romans 8). Yet, we fail so many times, and we continue to make mistakes daily. It is a tough to stay on the right path and to live righteous, yet we forget that Jesus knows the battles we face and we will receive the power to overcome temptation and the obstacles in our way. That is why it is so important that we live by the Spirit and not by flesh. Flesh makes us fall but the Holy Spirit makes us strong. I am close to discouragement as I stand before God and just surrender it all, all over again. When we fall or face impossible odds the important thing is not to stay down, but to stand up again and face the storms. It is important that we resist the enemy and listen to the Word of God. It is important that we seek God more in these days and praise Him even when we are completely broken. My dear friend, come with me today as we just humbly put our hope and our trust in Jesus, our saviour and our Lord. So, that we can be restored by His blood to step back into the saddle and to keep fighting. God is the God of impossibilities, and He moves when it seems lost or impossible or even when it feels it is too late. There is nothing too difficult for God – just have faith for we walk by faith and not by sight. Have an awesome day.

91 Days of Victory – Day 41 (2026/04/09)

 

This morning was a busy one. Car had to go in for a service, I needed to make a few calls, do the gym thing and realign my head to the work process that seems a bit overwhelming some days. Psalm 41 as we reach day 41. Blessed is he who considers the poor, now with this in mind I am reminding you of Jesus’s words “Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me”. We should never judge a book by its cover, and we should at all times remember that Jesus did not die for a certain group or stature, He gave His life for all, and all people are entitled to His salvation through the price He paid. Much am I forgiven for so much must I forgive. The promise that lies here in Psalm 41 is very interesting as David writes “The LORD will preserve him and keep him alive, and he will be blessed on the earth; You will not deliver him to the will of his enemies”. Now just rephrase this: Jesus said doing it to the least is as if we do it to Him and here God says if you are good to the poor, you will be preserved, blessed and He will deliver you from your enemies. Sounds good? Sounds awesome if you ask me. So, today I am challenging you to take our invasion of love up a notch. Be kind to all people and when you can, help someone in anyway you can from a bar of soap to a bottle of water or merely being friendly to them. There is enough nonsense in the world so a little cheer can go a long way. My dear friend, always know that God is pleased with you and your battles will not overcome you. God will uphold and uplift you, just keep going. It will all be worth it. Have an awesome day.

91 Days of Victory – Day 40 (2026/04/08)

 

I waited patiently for the Lord to help me… these words flood my thoughts today as my battles increase. I am reminded of the words Jesus said in Matthew 16: Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross, and follow me. If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake, you will save it. And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul? Is anything worth more than your soul?”. It is my choice to follow Jesus, and it is my choice to seek Him above all else. Yes, many troubles surround me and there are those who seek my destruction, but despite all this I will stay on this path and trust the process. Just as my Lord had to carry my burden, I will gladly take up my cross and face whatever this world has. Satan has no power over us, and he is under my feet. No weapon turned against you will succeed. You will silence every voice raised up to accuse you. Today my words are simple “May all who search for the Lord be filled with joy and gladness and may all who love salvation rejoice in the Lord. May the Lord keep us in His thoughts. He is our helper and our Savior and in Him we put all our hope and trust. Please Lord, rescue us and come quickly to help us. In the might name of Jesus”. Have an awesome day, my friend.

91 Days of Victory – Day 39 (2026/04/07)

 

I can honestly relate to every word David writes here in Psalm 39. It is hard to not say anything, to not give my ex-wife a piece of my mind. As David writes in verse 2 “But as I stood there in silence - not even speaking of good things - the turmoil within me grew worse”, I can fully relate and understand how he must have felt. Some days it just consumes us as we battle with our minds and our thoughts to say the right thing and to do the right thing. I do not know your battles, but as I stood before God this morning, I am reminded that people may not see or know what we face and how it affects us, but God does. He knows your heart and He sees what you face. Paul said God’s grace is enough and I believe that. I believe that His grace in any given moment surpasses the attempts of the enemy and it washes away any guilt and agony we may have due to the very lies the enemy builds against us. As much as he tries to destroy us, we are renewed in God’s grace and His mercies renews every day, just we must also ask the Holy Spirit to renew our minds and set us again on our paths as we keep fighting regardless the burdens, the worries, the pain and the strain on our day to day living. David writes that we are mere moving shadows and that our lives is but a moment comparing it to the width of your hand. My dear friend, life is short but more so – precious. You have only one life and in this life, we must live to please God, be obedient and reach the lost at any cost. The only thing we can take to heaven is people, and we should never take that for granted. I know it is hard but love always overcomes all evil. Jesus was a classic example in His sacrifice on the cross. We are to do the same. Come with me today as we live to show Jesus to this world and take as many to heaven as we can. Have an awesome day.

91 Days of Victory – Day 38 (2026/04/06)

Sin destroys, and the Holy Spirit will always convict us through our conscience to know when we are wrong. I love how David is so pure and open here in Psalm 38. He cries out to the Lord seeking forgiveness for his transgressions. Now, I am not a perfect man and many times I fail and fall in my words, actions, thoughts and disobedience. This whole weekend we saw how uncomprehensible God’s grace and love is. Looking at Jesus again carrying my sin and my burden to the cross so I can have everlasting life and be free from conviction and sin, and I am speechless. I can relate to David in verse 4 “My guilt overwhelms me - it is a burden too heavy to bear”. In the same thought we know that Jesus came to take that burden away and it is merely the lies of the enemy that overwhelms us. Yes, our enemy(ies) seek to destroy us, and this world is broken and lost, and the name Jesus is frowned upon because of this. Yet in the last days many will return to Jesus, and I believe we are in the last days. Thus, it is even more important that we reach out to everyone around us and tell the gospel and live the gospel. David writes in verse 21 and 22 “Do not abandon me, O LORD. Do not stand at a distance, my God. Come quickly to help me, O Lord my saviour”. Jesus is not at a distance, in fact He is right there with you. He knows your pain, problems, difficulties and challenges and He will come to help you. Trust in the Lord, His time, His will and His process for it will all come to pass and the meek shall inherit the world. You are more because He is more. Have an awesome day, my friend.

91 Days of Victory – Day 37 (2026/04/05)

 

I do not think I have to tell you that Jesus is alive. I do not think I have to remind you what He went through to destroy sin, satan and death. I do not think I have to remind you what He did despite the hatred of people, their deceiving hearts and their arrogance. Yet I would love to remind you of His love. His grace and the very Word He created to give us hope and strength and courage. I would love to remind you what He said before He ascended into heaven. Jesus said go out into the world and spread the gospel and baptise people. Come with me, my friend and let us invade this world with love. Let us love people into the kingdom of heaven and let us be the hands and feet of our Lord Jesus Christ. This Psalm (Psalm 37) is one of my favourites and a very powerful one. Please take time and read the whole one, but I want to align your focus to verse 4 and 5. Delight in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart and then commit your way to Him and trust Him and He will make it come to pass. My friend, simply delight in God (His Word and time with Him), commit (follow His Word and do it), trust (in God alone) and He will let water streams be formed in dry lands (life and life in abundance) and a way in the wilderness (impossible possible). My friend remember this, in fact meditate and pray on it: “The LORD rescues the godly; He is their fortress in times of trouble. The LORD helps them, rescuing them from the wicked. He saves them, and they find shelter in him”. He is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. His Word stands now and forever. Have and awesome day.

91 Days of Victory – Day 36 (2026/04/04)

Jesus said it is done. Not partially or phase one is complete. He said it is done, therefore there is no more condemnation or guilt or sin in the blood of our Lord Jesus Christ. His blood is victory over sin, death and the enemy. Yes, the enemy walks around like a lion and it is important that we remember “like” a lion. He is not a lion. The only power he ever has over us is what we give him and frankly, he does not deserve any. He is a fallen enemy, and he has no dominion on earth. Jesus has all the authority not him and you stand in that authority. I love Psalm 36 as David writes that God’s unfailing love is as vast as the heavens. Now just to put that in perspective, they have not yet built a big enough telescope to see how vast that is, because every time they make a bigger one, they realize the heavens above are much, much bigger than what they can ever see. How precious is the love of our God and the sacrifice of our Lord Jesus Christ. We find our shelter in the shadow of the wings of our Lord. Evil will not prevail and the schemes of the wicked shall be destroyed. Come with me today as we align ourselves with God’s Word and we stand on His promises. There is power in the Word of God so speak it over your life and your family. God says He knows the thoughts He as towards you. They are not thoughts of evil but of peace so that you can have a future and a hope. Be strong and courageous and keep fighting. The price God paid for you is beyond our imagination and the blood for your salvation is unmatched. Yes, you are loved beyond what you can think or comprehend. Have an awesome day.

91 Days of Victory – Day 35 (2026/04/03)

 

Today was absolutely amazing. Our service this morning was awesome. I woke this morning and God just opened my day with Psalm 35. I suggest, no, I really recommend you read the whole one. God is unchanged and His promises are unmatched and unwavering. This morning, He again confirms what He is doing in our lives and that the wicked and evil of this world will have no power nor any victories over us. I especially love the opening verse “Plead my cause, O LORD, with those who strive with me; Fight against those who fight against me”. My dear friend the perfect sacrifice was made for all of us in the crucifixion of our Lord, Jesus Christ. Sin does not keep God from us, instead guilt keeps us from God. There is nothing that the blood of Jesus cannot heal nor forgive nor overcome that we face or struggle with. All our addictions, hurt, sin, pain and unforgiveness can be removed, healed and cleansed from our lives. There is power in His blood, and it is His resurrecting, restoring and renewing blood that is poured out on us when we give our lives in total to our Lord, Jesus Christ. Today He was crucified, but our God in not dead. He rose from death and He is a living, all powerful God that loves us so much that He gave His life for us. He is not a plan B in God’s eternal plan, He is the plan. He is not a feel better over yourself solution, no He came to give us life and life in abundance. I can honestly say that my blessings far surpassed me tribulation. The people in my life far exceeds those who tries to destroy me. I am blessed and I have life in abundance, because as Paul I am content with little as much as I am content with much and the people in my life, my friends, my homecell, my church, my prayer groups, my family and my kids are so much more in my life than those who seek my end. Every person is a miracle, and every day is a miracle, and I honour and bless all, even my enemies. Have an awesome day, my friend, our God is amazing and nothing can keep us from His love.

91 Days of Victory – Day 34 (2026/04/02)

 

Some days we are just down. In my battle for my daughter, I have days like yesterday when I see her and when I must go, she is upset. My heart breaks into a thousand pieces and I always think “Why”, yet I know the answer to that question I keep thinking “Why”. This Psalm is just amazing, and this morning God speaks so clearly – “I sought the LORD, and He heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. They looked to Him and were radiant, and their faces were not ashamed. This poor man cried out, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles”. God is amazing and I know today things are taking a different direction and I know God is moving things into place so that this will come to an end. My friend, in our most difficult times and in our deepest pain, God is consistent and always present. I am thinking of our Lord as we are a day away from the day He was crucified. He was tortured and killed by religious people and in their hypocrisy their hearts were darkened and evil. The creator of heaven and earth was beaten, lied over, tortured, ridiculed and crucified. Instead of acting against them, He chose to die for us all. He chose to save us instead of destroying us. Who am I to judge and who am I to question. Vengeance is mine says the Lord and if He could give His life for me, the king of sinners, then what stops me from giving my life for Him. Come with me today, my friend, and let us run into this world boldly proclaiming the resurrection of our Lord and the gift of salvation. It is freely given to us so let us give it back. I will love and be kind to all, even those who hate and persecute me for in that I will show the heart of my God and the resurrecting power of Him that is in me. Have an awesome day and know this, in fact live this – He who is in me is far greater that he who is in this world and anything… anything is possible with God.

91 Days of Victory – Day 33 (2026/04/01)

Today I am reminded of the Roman officer that send his people to ask Jesus to heal his paralysed servant. He said that he is under authority and when he says do this they obey and do as he asks. He went on to say that he is not worthy for the Lord to enter his house and that if Jesus would just speak it, his servant would be healed. In this he demonstrated profound faith because he understood spiritual authority. Here in Psalm 33 David writes that God merely spoke and the heavens were created. His Word is life giving and as we read His Word, we are filled by the very bread that nourishes our soul and spirit. As I continue to battle with my fight for my daughter I am reminded by God that His Word reigns true and that He will frustrate the plans of the wicked and their schemes. Every day we battle the enemy on various levels and God wants us to remember that He sees every man and He will be a shield to us against the arrows of the enemy and He will be our help in these battles. Jesus said we cannot live by bread alone but by every Word that comes from His mouth. I encourage you to seek the Holy Spirit today in all you face and in all you must do. From simply walking (walking with Him) to making decisions (seek guidance) or doing your work (seek knowledge and wisdom). When God speaks, things change. Let His Word speak into your life today as we stand on the very authority we have in Jesus Christ. Have an awesome day, my friend.
