“Follow Me and be My disciple,’ Jesus said to him. So Matthew got up and followed Him” (Matthew 9:9 NLT). God’s will for every Christian is for us to mature and develop in the characteristics of Jesus Christ, living a life of love and stewardship. Some people live their lives pursuing their own selfish interests, not...

ARE YOU AVAILABLE?
Then I heard the Lord asking, “Whom should I send as a messenger to this people? Who will go for us?” I said, “Here I am. Send me.” [Isaiah 6:8 NLT]. God has positioned us here on earth as stewards ordained unto divine purposes. The question today is “Are you available for Him?” “Are you...
SEEING THROUGH HIS EYES
Having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which He has called you, what are the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints, (Ephesians 1:18, ESV) Seeing through God’s eyes is seeing through His word. The truth of the matter is, if you are going to...
LIVING A LIFE THAT COUNTS
We pray that you’ll live well for the Master, making Him proud of you as you work hard in His orchard. As you learn more and more how God works, you will learn how to do your work. [Colossians 1:10 MSSG] Martin Luther King once said “an individual has not started living until he can...
GIVING IS LIVING
The point is this: whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. [2 Corinthians 9:6, ESV] Stewardship is not just about money but also involves faithfully managing everything that God has placed in your charge for the furtherance of His Kingdom on earth. Giving is a powerful principle...
THE EARTH IS THE LORD’S
“For all the animals of the forest are Mine, and I own the cattle on a thousand hills. I know every bird on the mountains, and all the animals of the field are Mine. If I were hungry, I would not tell you, for all the world is Mine and everything in it.” [Psalms 50:10-12...
THE LOVE REVOLUTION
But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love. [1 John 4:8 NLT] It is quite easy to say love than doing it. Love needs to become more than a Bible passage, a theory or word among us as believers; it has to be an action. It must be seen...
HONOURING THE LORD
Therefore the Lord, the God of Israel, declares: ‘I promised that your house and the house of your father should go in and out before me forever,’ but now the Lord declares: ‘Far be it from me, for those who honour Me I will honour, and those who despise me shall be lightly esteemed. [1 Samuel 2:30 ESV]....
THE POWER OF A SEED
I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat is planted in the soil and dies, it remains alone. But its death will produce many new kernels—a plentiful harvest of new lives. [John 12:24 NLT]. A seed with it’s ingenious ability to reproduce cannot do so unless it falls to the ground and dies....
YOU BELONG TO GOD
Know ye that the Lord He is God: it is He that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are His people, and the sheep of His pasture. [Psalms 100: 3 KJV] Belonging to God means that we have been set apart for Him, not because of our actions, but because of His choice. We belong...
