                “…and was gathered to his people.”                 Have you ever thought about your death? Death is the most guaranteed ever of our lives. The probability of death is still one out of one, and is intricately connected to us as a fish is to the sea. In other words, death is perfectly natural occurrence,…

                “…ran again to the well…”                 A successful Christian is one who “sticks” to the basics of Christianity. What steps must we follow to become victorious believers? What I am about to tell you is so simple. It is basic. The first step is the faithful study of God’s Word. In the beginning, you…

                “I am a stranger, an alien residing among you…”                 Every child of God has felt some type of rejection from the world. This is a natural reaction if we consider the fact that to them, we are strangers. One may even say that the world thinks Christians are extraterrestrial beings.                 Is this…

                The Test…“God tested Abraham.”                 God does not tempt anyone (James 1:13), but he brings or allows numerous tests in our lives. If you have been a student in the past, you must agree that for the most part, tests are hard and undesirable. Nevertheless, the object of spiritual tests is to perfect our…

                “God has brought laughter for me…”                 Does God want us to be happy or to love him? I believe it’s the latter. Happiness is one of those things we find when we pursue God with all of our hearts. God is the only source of true,…

                “It was I who kept you from sinning…”                 How boundless is the mercy and loving kindness of our God! His love reaches out to us in more ways than we are able to discern. Countless too are the many instances when God has stood in our…

                “Have you anyone else here?”                 Sodom was similar to Las Vegas; it was a city of sin. There was more sexual sin in Sodom than in any other city of the ancient world, and this was so because almost everyone practiced immorality.                 Sodom was also…

                “My Lord, if I find favor with you, do not pass by your servant.”                 Every morning of our lives, we wake up to face the challenges and uncertainties of each day. We also awake to the certainty of God’s presence in our own rooms. This is…

                “Every male among you shall be circumcised.”                 What does it mean to be circumcised in the twenty-first century? To be circumcised is to reveal that which was hidden, to open that which was closed. Circumcision is still practiced today, and it has proven to be a healthy and sanitary practice.                 In Old…

                “…she looked on me with contempt.”                 How do you look at those that surround you?                 “If looks could kill” is an old saying that depicts the way we sometimes look at another person with hatred in our eyes. Everyone is guilty on this regard, for…
