Proverbs 19:5 A false witness will not go unpunished, and he who speaks lies will not escape. James 1:7-8 For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways. The world we live in is filled with all kinds of people – good and bad, domineering and passive, humble and proud, kind and selfish, compassionate and unmerciful as well as honest and unfaithful. With so much…..
Philippians 4:11-12 Not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content: I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound. Everywhere and in all things I have learned both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. Living a single life has its fair share of challenges. I have been single for quite some time now. Some days are difficult…..
Proverbs 12:26 The righteous should choose his friends carefully, for the way of the wicked leads them astray. Friendships can have a positive or negative impact on a person’s life. Having the right group of people in your circle of friends is a blessing from the Lord. However, the wrong person or people in your life is dangerous and toxic. The Bible exhorts us to choose our friends wisely and to be careful of the company we keep. It’s important…..
Psalm 37:7a Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him. Since I rededicated my life to Christ, I’m learning the essence of patience. Through testing and trials, the Lord has and is still showing me how to wait patiently on Him in all my situations, especially in the area for a godly mate. In Ecclesiastes 3:1, it says “To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven”. As I grow deeper in my faith, I’m…..
Psalm 55:22 Cast your burden on the Lord, and He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved. Have you ever experienced an anxiety attack? The dictionary defines anxiety as “a feeling of worry, nervousness, or unease about something with an uncertain outcome” or a “strong desire or concern to do something or for something to happen”. For eleven months, I suffered from severe panic attacks. They started off mild and progressively grew worse. Having never…..
Matthew 28:6a He is not here; for He is risen, as He said. Today, we celebrate Christ’s resurrection. Jesus, our Savior, was born of the Virgin Mary. He lived a sinless life, He willingly went to the cross, He suffered, He was crucified, He died, was buried, and He rose again on the third day. Jesus demonstrated a life of complete obedience when He submitted Himself to His Father in doing His will which included going to the cross on…..
Job 5:12 He frustrates the devices of the crafty, so that their hands cannot carry out their plans. As God’s daughter, you will encounter people in life who do not want to see you prosper. They will do their best to ruin your reputation, gossip, spread lies, intimidate, and even try to turn people against you. Rest assure that God is with you and He sees and hears everything. He is your Faithful High Priest and He will not allow…..
1 Peter 5:8-9 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. Matthew 7:16a You will know them by their fruits. In my earlier years of walking with the Lord, I diligently prayed for the blessing of a godly husband. This prayer was the cry of my heart and it…..
Deuteronomy 6:5 You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. Loving the Lord with all of my heart, soul, and strength means having a deep, unconditional, and committed love for Him. My love for Jesus must far exceed the love of my future godly husband, family, friends, ministries, job, material possessions as well as my own life. So if He chooses to bless me or not or take…..
Luke 9:51 Now it came to pass, when the time had come for Him to be received up, that He steadfastly set His face to go to Jerusalem. Jesus was set on doing His Father’s will which was to go to the cross and die for the sins of humanity, so that anyone who will believe and place their faith in Him will have eternal life. As Christ set His face to carry out His Father’s will, we should follow…..
