God Saves His People

Image
There is a verse that deeply stirred my spirit today — “If the Lord had not been on our side…” (Psalm 124:1).  I found  a song of David that celebrates the faithfulness of God toward His people. David looks back at Israel’s history and says, “If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, when men rose up against us, then they would have swallowed us alive.” What a declaration! These words remind us that every victory, every deliverance, every moment of protection we have experienced is not because of our strength, wisdom, or luck — it’s because God was on our side. Without Him, our enemies, whether physical or spiritual, would have swallowed us whole. We would have been crushed by the pressures of life. But God stepped in, and His saving hand lifted us out of danger. Only God’s People Can Say This Notice that David says, “If the Lord had not been on our side — let Israel say…” That statement is not universal. It’s not for everyone. It’s for God’s people — those ...

Remove the Stone and Believe

Image
When Jesus was told about the condition of Lazarus, He said to His disciples, “This sickness will not end in death. It is for God’s glory, so that the Son of God may be glorified through it.” (John 11:4) When He arrived in Bethany, Lazarus had already been dead for four days. Martha came out to meet Him, and Jesus said to her, “Did I not tell you that if you believe, you will see the glory of God?” (John 11:40) Then Jesus asked where Lazarus was buried. As He approached the tomb, He told them to remove the stone. There are things in life that Jesus will not do for you — you must do them yourself. Removing the stone represents removing your doubts, fears, and unbelief. Before the miracle can happen, you must do your part. When the stone was taken away, Jesus gave thanks to God — even while Lazarus still lay dead. That’s faith in action! Give thanks to God for what has not yet happened. See it as already done, because your gratitude opens the door for His glory to be revealed...

When the Lions Surround You, God Still Protects

Image
Have you ever felt like you’ve been thrown into a lions’ den? Maybe not with real lions like Daniel, but with lions of a different kind — lions of poverty, financial problems, witchcraft, spiritual attacks, betrayal, sickness, or discouragement. The truth is: life has lions. But there is also a God who shuts the lions’ mouths. --- Psalm 25: God Will Not Forsake You In Psalm 25:1–6, David lifts up his soul to the Lord, asking for protection and guidance. He prays, “O my God, I trust in You; let me not be ashamed; let not my enemies triumph over me.” This is a cry we can all relate to. When problems rise against us like hungry lions, we can either give in to fear — or trust God to fight for us. And the promise of this Psalm is clear: God will not abandon those who love Him. --- Daniel 6: God Shuts the Lions’ Mouths Daniel refused to stop praying to God, even when it meant breaking the king’s law. His enemies had him thrown into the lions’ den. By all human logic, Daniel shoul...

The Name Above All Names

Image
  There is no power higher than the power of Jesus — in heaven, on earth, or under the earth. Philippians 2:10–11 reminds us: “That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things on earth, and things under the earth.” This is a powerful truth for every believer, and it has real-life implications.  The Three Realms That Bow The Bible describes three groups that will bow at the name of Jesus: Heaven: Every angel and heavenly being. Earth: Every person living in this world. Under the Earth: Even spiritual forces of darkness and the dead. Nothing and no one is outside Jesus’ authority. This includes witchcraft, occult practices, and any attempt to use dark powers. The Authority in Jesus’ Name Jesus gave His followers authority through His name: “In my name you will drive out demons; in my name you will heal the sick” (Luke 10:17–19). The enemy fears the name of Jesus — not you, but the authority in His name. That is why we must always use H...

Have you ever been disappointed by your spiritual leader?

Image
Maybe you faced injustices, betrayal, or pain at the hands of a bishop, pastor, or prophet — and it made you want to stop going to church, or even stop praying and worshiping God. But here’s the truth: that bishop is not your God. A decision to stop worshiping God because of man’s failure is never wise. 📖 “It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man.” — Psalm 118:8 📖 “Cursed is the one who trusts in man, who draws strength from mere flesh and whose heart turns away from the Lord.” — Jeremiah 17:5 Many give their lives to the church instead of to God. They obey their bishop more than they obey God. They love their pastor more than they love the Lord. So when the bishop disappoints them, they walk away — not just from the church, but from God Himself. 📖 “We must obey God rather than men.” — Acts 5:29 You may leave an organization, you may leave a bishop, but never leave God. Build your relationship with Him directly, because He will never fail you.

Seeing the Goodness of God in the Land of the Living

Image
Psalm 27:13 says, “I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.” This verse reminds us that God’s blessings are not just for eternity but also for our present lives. Even when life feels hopeless, God is faithful to show His goodness here and now. 1. Joseph – From the Pit to the Palace (Genesis 37, 39-41) Joseph faced betrayal, slavery, and imprisonment. Yet, God’s plan prevailed, and Joseph was elevated to the governor of Egypt, saving countless lives. His story teaches us that no matter how difficult our trials, God can turn hardship into purpose. 2. Hannah – From Tears to Triumph (1 Samuel 1:1-20) Hannah longed for a child and prayed earnestly to God. He answered her prayers with the birth of Samuel, who became one of Israel’s greatest prophets. Hannah’s faith shows us that God’s goodness can manifest even after seasons of waiting. 3. Job – Restored After Loss (Job 1-42) Job lost his wealth, family, and health, yet he remaine...

Bring Your Problem to Jesus: A Life-Changing Lesson from Mark 9

Image
Sometimes we try everything — friends, family, experts — and nothing works. That’s exactly what happened in Mark 9:14–29. A father brought his son to Jesus’ disciples. The boy was possessed by a spirit that made him deaf, mute, and violently convulsed. The disciples tried to help… but they couldn’t. So the father went to Jesus and pleaded: "If you can do anything, take pity on us and help us." Jesus answered: "‘If you can’? Everything is possible for one who believes." The father responded honestly: "Lord, I believe — help my unbelief!" --- Step 1: Don’t Be Disappointed When Others Can’t Help If you’ve tried going to people who thought they could help and they couldn’t — don’t give up. Go to Jesus. Bring your problems: Your health Your finances Your family Your relationships Some battles require spiritual intervention, and Jesus is the answer. Step 2: Expect Spiritual Warfare When the demon saw Jesus, it threw the boy into convulsions. Why? Bec...

All Things Work Together

  Romans 8:28 reminds us: “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.” We are all created in the image of God (Genesis 1:27). That means every person carries His design, His value, and His purpose. Because of this, I believe we are all called according to His purpose. The difference is whether we choose to walk in that calling by loving Him. When we do, even our struggles, delays, and challenges are not wasted. God weaves them into His plan for our good. Nothing is random. Nothing is lost. In His hands, all things work together for good. Let us trust Him, love Him, and walk in His purpose — because our lives are not accidents, they are part of His great design.

The Mystery of Marie Ostbo’: A Norwegian Student Who Vanished in South Africa

Image
In April 2018, a 21-year-old Norwegian student named Marie Sæter Østbø disappeared during a holiday in South Africa. She was traveling with a group of international students along the scenic Garden Route, staying in a backpacker lodge in Sedgefield, near Myoli Beach. What happened to her remains a mystery that continues to baffle the world. --- The Last Known Movements On the evening of April 18, 2018, Marie went for a walk along Myoli Beach. She was in good spirits, wearing casual clothes and sandals. But she never returned to the lodge. The next morning, her cellphone, hat, and shoes were found neatly on the beach. There were no signs of struggle—and no trace of Marie herself. Local authorities, including the police and the National Sea Rescue Institute, along with volunteers, launched extensive searches of the beach, ocean, and surrounding areas. Despite weeks of effort, no new leads emerged, leaving her family and friends in anguish. --- Possible Scenarios Marie’s disap...

Faith Speaks: Lessons from Jesus and the Fig Tree

Image
When Jesus saw the fig tree with no fruit, He spoke to it and said, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again.” The next day, the disciples were amazed—the tree had withered from the roots. Notice something powerful: Jesus didn’t pray to God about the fig tree. He spoke directly to it. This shows us how faith works—it must be spoken.  Three Reasons to Speak to Your Problem 1. Your Words Carry Power Proverbs 18:21 – “Death and life are in the power of the tongue.” Job 22:28 – “You will also declare a thing, and it will be established for you.” What you declare in faith has the power to shift situations. 2. Faith Must Be Released Through Speaking Mark 11:23 – “Whoever says to this mountain… he will have whatever he says.” 2 Corinthians 4:13 – “I believed, and therefore I spoke.”  Faith is not silent—what you believe must come out of your mouth. 3. Jesus Set the Example Matthew 17:20 – “You will say to this mountain, ‘Move,’ and it will move.” Romans 10:10 – “With the...

Why God Allows Delays (and What You Should Do While Waiting)

Image
Have you ever prayed for something, waited, and wondered if God was listening? Maybe it was a job, healing, a breakthrough, or even a promise that seemed so clear at first — but now feels delayed. Waiting can be one of the hardest parts of walking with God. But here’s the truth: a delay is not a denial. God’s timing is always perfect, even when we don’t understand it. Let’s look at why God sometimes allows delays and how we can respond with faith. 1. Delays Are Not Denials > “For the vision is yet for an appointed time… though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay.” — Habakkuk 2:3 God never forgets His promises. What feels like a delay to us is often God aligning everything at the right time. When Lazarus died, Jesus came “late” — but His delay brought a greater miracle (John 11). 2. God Uses Delays to Prepare Us Think of David: anointed as king but had to wait years before sitting on the throne. Why? Because God was shaping his character. Del...

Rising Strong in September – God Will Carry You Through

Image
Life has a way of testing us. August may have left many of us weary, burdened, or even broken. Some have said goodbye to loved ones, some have faced painful losses, and others have struggled with challenges that seemed too heavy to bear. But here is the good news: God never leaves us where we are. He is the God who renews, restores, and gives strength to the weary. The Word of God in Isaiah 40:29-31 says: > "He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint." This is not just a verse—it is a promise. As we cross over into September, we must hold on to this truth: God’s strength is greater than our weakness. God’s Strength in Our Weakness 2 Corinthians 12:9-10: Paul reminds us, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my...

The Lord Is Faithful: He Will Strengthen and Protect You

Image
Scripture: 2 Thessalonians 3:3 (NIV) "But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one." There are moments in life when fear tries to paralyze us — when the battles we face seem too big, too strong, and too overwhelming. But in these very moments, God’s Word reminds us of a powerful truth: The Lord is faithful. He will strengthen you, and He will protect you. God is not selective about His faithfulness. He is faithful to His children. He is faithful to those who call upon His name, to those who desire a relationship with Him, and to those who have surrendered their lives to Jesus. If you are connected to Him, you have access to His strength and protection. --- David and the God Who Strengthens Look at David. The entire Israelite army, including King Saul, trembled before the Philistine giant, Goliath. Fear had taken over their hearts. But David — a young shepherd boy — stepped forward, not in his own strength, but in the stren...

Without the Vine, We Can Do Nothing – John 15:5

Image
 “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in Me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from Me you can do nothing.” – John 15:5 (NIV) Today, Jesus reminds us that He is the vine and we are the branches . A branch cannot bear fruit on its own—it must remain connected to the vine. In the same way, we cannot produce lasting results without remaining in Him. It’s true that in life we can attempt many things in our own strength. We might even achieve a measure of success—wealth, influence, or recognition. But history and daily headlines remind us: even those who seem to “have it all” can be crushed by life’s storms. We have seen millionaires , business leaders, and celebrities lose everything in a moment and make tragic choices—taking their own lives, or even harming their families—because they saw no way forward. Without Jesus, when troubles strike, many feel trapped and hopeless. But with Jesus, there is always hope. He is the Way when there seems to be no way. He...

You Do Not Have to End Your Life — Jesus Is the Answer

Image
Inspired by Acts 16:28 He knew his life was over. The prison doors had flung wide open, and every prisoner was suddenly free. No warning. No human explanation. Just freedom — uncontainable, undeniable, impossible. The jailer knew what this meant: execution. He would be held responsible. The king would demand his head. He had no excuse, no backup plan, no second chance. So, in his desperation, he reached for his sword to end his own life. A man who had been working hard to feed his family… A man doing his duty… A man trying to survive… Now stood on the edge of a final, permanent decision. But then — a voice pierced through the darkness: > “Do not harm yourself! We are all here!” — Acts 16:28 --- 💔 Does this sound familiar? How many people today feel exactly like that jailer? Caught in a situation with no way out... Facing failure, shame, or judgment… Feeling like death is the only escape... And so, some decide to end it all. Maybe you're one of them. Maybe you’ve thought: “No on...

Stand Firm — God Is With You

Image
📖 2 Chronicles 20:17 (NIV) > “You will not have to fight this battle. Take up your positions; stand firm and see the deliverance the Lord will give you… Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Go out to face them tomorrow, and the Lord will be with you.” --- 💭 When You Feel Surrounded There are days when life feels like a battlefield — pressure coming from every side, the weight of decisions, fears, and responsibilities almost too much to carry. In moments like that, the natural instinct is to either fight harder or run away. But God gives a different instruction: > “Stand firm.” Not because the situation isn’t real… but because He is.  The Battle Belongs to God In this Scripture, God's people were outnumbered and under pressure. But instead of calling them to action, God called them to faith . > “You won’t even have to fight… just take your position.” Your position might look like: Standing in prayer Standing in worship Standing in obedience Standing in hope , even ...

You Will Rise Again — Biblical Encouragement When Life Knocks You Down

Image
“Rejoice not over me, O my enemy; when I fall, I shall rise; when I sit in darkness, the Lord will be a light to me.” – Micah 7:8 (ESV) --- Sometimes life knocks us down. Sometimes the darkness feels real. But even in those moments, we can stand on the truth of this verse. Micah doesn't pretend things are easy — he speaks honestly. He says “when I fall,” not “if.” He says “when I sit in darkness,” not “in case.” But here's the power: he declares his comeback. --- You Will Rise Again If you're facing difficulty right now — emotionally, spiritually, or in any part of life — remember this: Your failure is not your finish. Your darkness is not your destiny. God hasn’t left you. You will rise again. Micah didn’t say “I’ll rise because I’m strong,” or “because people support me.” He said, “The Lord will be a light to me.” That’s our hope too. --- Let This Be Your Confession 🔸 I may have fallen, but I will rise. 🔸 I may be in darkness, but the Lord is my light. 🔸 My...

Welcome August – A Sacred New Beginning

Image
Today is the first day of a brand-new month—August. While the world may treat it like any other Friday, for those of us who walk by faith, this is a sacred moment. It’s a fresh beginning, a divine invitation, a gift from above. The Bible says in Romans 14:5 that some may see every day as the same, but to others, some days are sacred. Today is sacred—not because the calendar says so, but because God has allowed us to step into it. There are many who did not make it into this month. Beds left unmade, plans unfinished, dreams unrealized—because those people did not receive this new day. But you and I are still here. We are breathing, alive, and that alone is reason to lift our hands and say, Thank You, Lord. > “This is the day the Lord has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” (Psalm 118:24) So, let’s welcome August with praise. Let’s declare the goodness of God over this month. Let’s bless each day to come and position our hearts with gratitude, faith, and hope. As you...

SHOUT ALL THE MORE — When Prayer Feels Pointless

Image
  “Many rebuked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, ‘Son of David, have mercy on me!’” — Mark 10:48 Have you ever felt like giving up on prayer? Like your cries to God are falling on deaf ears? That maybe God isn’t listening, or worse—maybe He doesn’t care? That’s exactly what Bartimaeus could have felt in Mark 10. He was blind, desperate, and sitting by the roadside when he heard Jesus was passing by. This was his chance. So he cried out, “Son of David, have mercy on me!” But instead of support, he was met with rebuke. The crowd told him to be quiet, to stay in his place, to stop disturbing the Master. But Bartimaeus refused to be silenced. He shouted even louder. And that, right there, is the key: when life tells you to give up, when the devil whispers that your prayers are useless—shout all the more. Many are quietly suffering because they’ve allowed discouragement to silence their faith. But not Bartimaeus. He kept his eyes on Jesus (even with...

🔥 Not Everyone Claps for You: The Hidden Danger of Jealousy 🔥 When your success threatens others, but God stands up for you.

Image
They don't hate you because you're wrong. They hate you because you're rising. Your light exposes their shadows. Your progress offends their stagnation. And instead of clapping, they curse. Instead of supporting, they scheme. Behind the smiles, there's envy. Behind the "congratulations," there's witchcraft. Yes — people are being fought spiritually, not because they did anything wrong, but simply because God is blessing them. 😈 When Jealousy Turns Dark Jealousy doesn’t just sit quietly — it acts. People go to sangomas. They burn candles. They send spiritual attacks. They whisper behind closed doors. All because your glow is too loud for their comfort. They can't stop your calling, so they try to slow you down. They can't block your anointing, so they attack your peace, your business, your children, your mind. But here's the truth: > “I will fight those who fight you, and I will save your children.” — Isaiah 49:25 > “No weapon...

🕊️ When You're Sinking, Look to Jesus

Image
He will reach for you — even in the storm. Today, I preached at a bereavement service for a young couple who lost their 3-year-old child in the most sudden and painful way. The child wasn’t sick. He had just gone outside — simply to pee — and somehow, he fell, hit his head, and passed away within seconds. There are no words for this kind of tragedy. As I stood with them, feeling the weight of their grief, the Scripture that came to me was this moment from Matthew 14 — when Peter walked on water toward Jesus: > “But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, ‘Lord, save me!’ Immediately Jesus reached out His hand and caught him.” — Matthew 14:30–31 💔 You Can Be Faithful… and Still Afraid This couple are not strangers to faith. They pray. They go to church. They believe in God. But right now, in the face of unimaginable loss — they are sinking. And maybe you are too. Even Peter, a disciple walking with Jesus, started to drown when fear took hol...

Don’t Forget the Stick That Helped You

Image
“The day a blind man sees, the first thing he throws away is the stick that has helped him all his life.” At first, this sounds like a story of healing — a blind man finally receives his sight. A miracle. A breakthrough. A fresh start. But there’s another layer. That stick wasn’t just a tool. It was a lifeline. It guided him through darkness. It steadied his steps. It helped him survive when he couldn’t see. And yet, the moment his eyes are opened… he throws it away. Just like that. How many of us do the same? When we’re struggling, we cry out for help. We lean on people, on faith, on kindness. We depend on those who walk with us through the dark. But once things get better — once we “see” again — we forget. We forget the people who prayed for us, who gave us food when we were hungry, who stayed up at night to encourage us, who believed in us when we had nothing. We forget the stick. > “Do not forget the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the...

Love Should Feel Like Freedom, Not a Cage

Image
In many marriages today, there are partners who are being controlled—not with fists, but with manipulation, fear, guilt, and silence. It’s a prison that doesn’t have bars, but its effects are just as real. And tragically, the person inside often doesn’t even realize they’re caged... or worse, they’ve chosen to close their eyes. The Silent Cage Some marriages look perfect from the outside. But behind closed doors, there is one partner who: Decides where you go, what you wear, and who you talk to. Constantly belittles your opinions, dreams, and feelings. Uses guilt to keep you obedient, or the Bible to silence your voice. Makes you feel like everything is your fault. Gives you "just enough love" to keep you hoping, while slowly draining your soul. This is not love. This is emotional abuse. And emotional abuse is still abuse. You Are Not Wrong for Wanting Freedom You may ask yourself: "Am I wrong for being kind?" "Was I too loving?" "Is it me...

✨ “They will fight against you, but they shall not prevail.”

Image
🛡️ You Are Not Alone. In life, we all face opposition. Sometimes it comes from people, sometimes from life’s challenges, and sometimes from within ourselves. It can feel like everything is pushing against you. But God has already spoken: > “They will fight against you, but they shall not prevail against you. For I am with you,” says the Lord, “to deliver you.” – Jeremiah 1:19 This isn’t just a verse — it’s a promise. 🔥 When You’re Under Attack... Emotionally exhausted? Spiritually dry? Physically drained or stuck in a hard place? Remember: No matter how fierce the battle, the outcome is already written — “they shall not prevail.” --- 🙏 Let This Be Your Reminder Today: ✅ God sees your struggle. ✅ He knows your name. ✅ He has a plan to deliver you. ✅ And no attack — spiritual, emotional, or physical — can succeed against His purpose for your life. --- 💬 Need prayer or encouragement? 📖 Read more at imbelieving.blogspot.com 🗣️ Share this with someone who needs strength...

💛 Relationship, Not Religion

Image
Many people know about God — but don’t know Him. They go to church, read Bible verses, and try to be “good” — yet still feel far from Him. But God is not looking for religion. He wants relationship. > James 4:8 “Come near to God and He will come near to you.” A relationship with God is like any other close friendship: You talk to Him (prayer) You listen to Him (through His Word) You trust Him You walk with Him daily It’s not about being perfect. It’s about being connected. Being honest. Being with Him. > Revelation 3:20 “I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in...” God is not distant. He’s right there — knocking. Waiting for you to open your heart. --- 🕊️ A Simple Prayer: > “Lord, I want to know You — not just about You. Draw me close. I open my heart to You. Walk with me, speak to me, change me. Amen.”

Higher Ways for a Higher Month – July with Isaiah 55:9

Image
As we step into July—the seventh month of the year—we are reminded that seven symbolizes completion and spiritual perfection in biblical numerology. It’s a powerful point in the year to reflect, realign, and rise. The Word of God in Isaiah 55:9 says: > "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts." This is a divine reminder that while we plan, strive, and try to make sense of our lives, God is already operating on a higher plane. His vision is broader. His intentions are purer. His outcomes are far better than anything we can imagine. What does this mean for us this July? Trust more, stress less. God is not limited by our limitations. Align your goals with heaven’s priorities. Seek His wisdom before rushing into decisions. Rest in His timing. Delays are not denials; they are divine recalibrations. Think higher. Let your mindset reflect faith, not fear. Let July be the month you surrender...

📖 The Righteous Are Delivered — But Are You Righteous?

Image
The righteous person may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from them all.” — Psalm 34:19, NIV We love quoting the second part of this verse — "the Lord delivers him from them all." It gives us hope, especially in times of trouble. But let's not miss the beginning: “The righteous person...” Who does God deliver? The righteous. --- ✝️ Righteousness Is Not Perfection Righteousness isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being in right standing with God: Walking in obedience Turning away from sin Loving others Living humbly and truthfully We all want answers from God. But are we harboring unforgiveness? Are we holding grudges? You may never forget what someone did to you — but you can forgive. Forgiveness isn’t forgetting; it’s letting go so God can move on your behalf. > “But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.” — Matthew 6:15 --- 🔥 Examples of Righteous Deliverance Look at these powerful stories: ✅ Shadr...

📖 FAMILY REVIVAL – SUNDAY WORD

Image
> “The righteous person may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from them all.” — Psalm 34:19 We are now deep into our 5 Sundays of Family Revival, and this week's Word is a powerful reminder of God’s faithfulness in the middle of our struggles. Sometimes we think that walking with God means we’ll avoid problems. But Psalm 34:19 makes it clear — even the righteous go through many troubles. That’s real life. It includes financial hardship, sickness, broken relationships, and spiritual battles. But here’s the good news: God doesn’t leave us there. He delivers us from them all. Yes, ALL. Not some. Not just the easy ones. ALL. This Sunday, as we continue our Family Revival, we declare that God is working in our homes — breaking chains, restoring relationships, and healing wounds. He’s turning mourning into dancing and trials into testimonies. We pray that your family will: Be protected Be united Be revived in spirit Be a witness of God’s delivering power 📸 Family in Praye...

God Knew Before You Knew — Trusting the One Who Sees Ahead

Image
Have you ever faced something so unexpected that it left you speechless? Maybe a challenge, a loss, a delay, or a closed door you didn’t see coming? Life throws us curveballs—but here’s the comforting truth: Nothing you’re facing is a surprise to God. He had the solution before you even knew there was a problem. 🌟 God Is Never Caught Off Guard While we panic or worry, God remains calm and in control. He doesn’t wait to react—He already knew what would happen and made provision for it. He sees the beginning and the end of your situation at the same time. 📖 Isaiah 46:10 “I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say, ‘My purpose will stand.’” This verse reminds us that God isn’t guessing about our future. He knows it. He’s already made a way through what feels like a dead end. 🛠 The Solution Was Already in Place Think of this: before you even faced the pain, the confusion, or the struggle—you had a God who already prepared an ans...

🐆 You Can’t Hide Your True Colors Forever

Image
What the Bible Says About Genuine Character Have you ever met someone who seemed so kind and trustworthy—until time revealed who they really were? People can fake it for a while, but eventually, the truth comes out. The Bible puts it perfectly: > “Can an Ethiopian change his skin or a leopard its spots? Neither can you do good who are accustomed to doing evil.” — Jeremiah 13:23 (NIV) This verse speaks a deep truth: you can pretend, but not forever. Like a leopard can’t hide its spots, people can’t forever hide who they really are. --- 🕵️‍♂️ Pretending Can’t Last Forever Some people try to act nice just to gain your trust—but their true intentions always rise to the surface. They wear a mask, but masks don’t stick forever. > “Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked.
