The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven. As the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. And we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither does corruption inherit incorruption. (1 Corinthians 15:47-50)

Looks can be deceiving. Because it’s so convenient to forget who we are in Christ, today. Diamonds are not found strewn about in mines. Miners go real deep and search hard to find them. They’re fully covered in sand and … Continue reading

And as they thus spoke, Jesus Himself stood in the midst of them, and said unto them, “Peace be unto you.” But they were terrified and afraid, and supposed that they had seen a spirit. And He said unto them, “Why are you troubled? And why do thoughts arise in your hearts?” (Luke 24:36-38)

Blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord. (Luke 1:45)

Mary was pregnant with baby Jesus in the womb and this was prophesied over her by her cousin Elizabeth, by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. There is something about believing. Mary did nothing but believe. What did she “do” … Continue reading

Then said the woman, “Whom shall I bring up to you?” And he said, “bring me up Samuel.” And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried with a loud voice: and the woman spoke to Saul, saying, “Why have you deceived me? For you are Saul.” And the king said unto her, “Be not afraid: for what did you see?” And the woman said to Saul, “I saw gods ascending out of the earth.” And he said to her, “What form is he of?” And she said, “An old man came up; and he is covered with a mantle. And Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he stooped with his face to the ground, and bowed himself. (1 Samuel 28:11-14)

Then answered Jesus and said unto them, “Verily, verily, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father do: for what things so ever He does, these also does the Son likewise. (John 5:19)

Jesus accomplished in 3.5 years what man couldn’t accomplish since Adam and the efficacy of what Jesus did on the cross stands true for all eternity. No one can surpass what Jesus did for all mankind. It’s a class apart … Continue reading

“It shall come to pass, when you be multiplied and increased in the land, in those days”, says the Lord, “they shall say no more, “The Ark of the Covenant of the Lord:” neither shall it come to mind: neither shall they remember it; neither shall they visit it; neither shall it be magnified anymore.” (Jeremiah 3:16)

Which is the centre of the earth on a world map that bridges three continents of Europe, Asia and Africa? It’s the Middle East and lying central in this region is the country of Israel. The holiest city in all … Continue reading

To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they may hear? Behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot hear: behold, the word of the Lord is unto them a reproach; they have no delight in it. (Jeremiah 6:10)

Our Lord gives us a beautiful glimpse of what is key to understanding the Word of God and not just understanding it, but delighting in it. He is speaking through prophet Jeremiah about the impending destruction that’s coming to Jerusalem … Continue reading

These are the last couple of statements our Saviour made just before His passion. Jesus and the three disciples, Peter, James and John enter the garden of Gethsemane to pray. Jesus asks the disciples to keep watch and pray. The … Continue reading

Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it does not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is. And every man that has this hope in him purifies himself, even as He is pure. (1 John 3:2,3)

I can tell you that the Bible is full of surprises. There is one truth and that is Jesus but there is no end to knowing who He is to us through the finished work. Our entire earthly life won’t … Continue reading

When the Moabites rose up early in the morning, and the sun shone upon the water, and the Moabites saw the water on the other side as red as blood: They said, “this is blood: the kings are surely slain, and they have smitten one another: now therefore Moab, to the spoil.” (2 Kings 3:22,23)

This is an excerpt from the ministry of prophet Elisha. What I would like to focus on is an interesting detail that the Holy Spirit has taken time and verses to mention. There is significant truth hidden in these minute … Continue reading
