“Put your sword away. Shall I not drink from the cup the Father has given me?”
(John 18:11 TLB)
Jesus knows all about my devastating trials, like Peter, I have tried to work my way out of them. He has shown me sometimes my Father has a greater purpose than merely eliminating or solving a problem. When I learnt what Jesus wanted me to do, I just followed Him, and He showed me the ultimate victory will always mine, even in death. So, now when the trials come to me, I am not worried or troubled. I run to Christ Jesus, and I talk to Him about everything I may have in my life where I need Him to help me. I cast all of my cares and worries upon Him, because He cares for me. I fast, pray, and abide in His word. I listen to the Holy Spirit of God, as He whispers in my ear. I know that even the worst trials are only temporary, and they are producing for me treasures in heaven that are eternal. I trust in Jesus Christ completely.
Prayer
Father, thank You so much for showing me how to handle devastating trials. Through Jesus Christ my precious Lord, He always shows me the way out. I know whatever trials I may have to go through in life, God will work out all things for my own good. I praise and thank Him now and forever more in Jesus name. His grace is sufficient for me, for His words power is perfected in weakness. Amen.

New Blog Post: ‘Come Into God’s House and Meet with Him in Prayer’ – ‘Obeying Jesus‘
If anyone hears me and doesn’t obey me, I am not his judge—for I have come to save the world and not to judge it. (John 12:47 TLB
I do believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. He died on the Cross for all my sins and He paid my sin debt in full. Every time I obey Jesus’ words, I am believing in Him. He is not sitting by the Father waiting to condemn my every mistake and failure. He is not my judge but He is my Advocate. He is my faithful Friend who has stuck by me more than a brother. No one has a greater love for me than the Father and Jesus. He laid down His life for me. He has promised me He will never leave me. He is the Good Shepherd, and I am His dear lamb. He is the One who left ninety-nine to seek and save me. How grateful I am to God for everything He has done for me. I continually think about all the millions and thousand of people in the world today, yet God thought I was special enough to come and reveal His presence to Me, how blessed I am in Him.
Prayer
Father, how grateful I am to You and Your precious Son, for everything He has done for me on the Cross of Calvary. He came and rescued and forgave me all sins He loves me unconditionally and He showed me how precious I am to Him, through the Holy Spirit of God. I can never ever thank and praise Him enough for everything He has done for me, I will obey Him forever and always in Jesus Christ name. Amen.

New Blog Post: ‘Come Into God’s House and Meet with Him in Prayer’ – ‘Life In The Spirit‘
For the power of the life-giving Spirit—and this power is mine through Christ Jesus—has freed me from the vicious circle of sin and death. We aren’t saved from sin’s grasp by knowing the commandments of God because we can’t and don’t keep them, but God put into effect a different plan to save us. He sent his own Son in a human body like ours—except that ours are sinful—and destroyed sin’s control over us by giving himself as a sacrifice for our sins. (Romans 8:2-3 TLB)
The Holy Spirit of God, has given me new life through Jesus Christ. He has set me free from all my sin and death. God has set us free by sending His own Son to be like sinners and be a sacrifice for our sin. God used Christ’s body to condemn sin. He did this, so that we would do what the Law commands by obeying the Spirit instead of our own desires. It’s His strength and power that gives us the strength to overcome our sinful nature and desires. People who are ruled by their desires think only of themselves. Everyone who is ruled by the Holy Spirit, will keep their focus on God and heaven shows us that our personal desires are not our most important thoughts. If we focus on spiritual goals such as being loving, kind and patient. This brings us freedom in our minds that is peace.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, thank You for sending Your precious Son, Jesus Christ; to be a sacrifice for my sin. Thank You for sending the Holy Spirit of God to dwell within me and help me to overcome my sinful nature and desires. I ask the Holy Spirit of God to guide and lead me into His perfect will, and I ask Him to give me the strength to overcome all my evil desires. Amen.

New Blog Post: ‘Come Into God’s House and Meet with Him in Prayer’ – ‘God’s Strength‘
“But why can’t I come now?” he asked, “for I am ready to die for you.” Jesus answered, “Die for me? No—three times before the cock crows tomorrow morning, you will deny that you even know me! (John 13:37-38 TLB)
Jesus, has shown me by my own strength I do not have the power to overcome my own will. It is better to trust in the Lord’s strength, and He will help us to overcome. Like Peter we can make bold statements and our zealous for God sometimes gets in the way. Jesus, knew exactly what Peter and Judas was about to do, but He did not change the situation, nor did He stop loving them. In the same way, Jesus knows exactly what we will do to hurt Him. Yet He still love us unconditionally and will forgive us whenever we ask Him. We need to rely wholly upon Him for His strength. He will provide the grace we need for any situation at the moment you need it. But you must receive it and act on it. As you obey His words, the Holy Spirit will give you all the power you need to take each step with Him. Remember, you only need to follow Him one step at a time.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, thank You for giving me Your strength and grace to overcome any situations l find myself in. You will provide Your grace and mercy for my every day life, as I place my trust in You. I receive Your grace and act upon it, to the praise and honour of Your precious name. Amen.

New Blog Post: ‘Come Into God’s House and Meet with Him in Prayer’ – ‘Wonderful Miracles‘
“But didn’t I tell you that you will see a wonderful miracle from God if you believe?”
(John 11:40 TLB)
When you hear the wonderful truth of the Gospel of Christ, and you believe in faith you receive special blessings. Every time you take a step of faith based on God’s words, you please the Father, and your faith grows. However, to take a step of faith, we must first hear God’s words, just as Martha did. Believing in Christ Jesus, is simply acting in response to His commands, teachings, and promises. Every time you do, you will glorify the Father and Him, and then you will see His glory take place in your life. Jesus looked at them and said,
“Humanly speaking, it is impossible. But with God everything is possible.” (Matthew 19:26 TLB). Isn’t these great words to meditate upon.
Prayer
O Jesus, how grateful and thankful I am to You that You have given me the wonderful miracle of Christ through my faith, trust, and confidence to believe in You. I have received the wonderful truth of the Gospel of Christ, and never again do I desire to go away from the truth of Your word. I praise and thank You now and for evermore through the Holy Spirit of God. Amen.

New Blog Post: ‘Come Into God’s House and Meet with Him in Prayer’ – ‘Staying In The Light‘
Jesus replied, “There are twelve hours of daylight every day, and during every hour of it a man can walk safely and not stumble. Only at night is there danger of a wrong step, because of the dark.” (John 11:9-10 TLB)
When we walk with Jesus, we must keep close to Him and stay upon the path that He has prepared for us. His Word is a lamp to guide our feet and a light for our path to follow Him.
When we follow Him we can walk safely and not stumble. Only at night is there danger of a wrong step, because of the dark. This is why it is so important to stay close to Christ. He makes us aware of what maybe in our path, through the Holy Spirit of God, He teaches us to see when we are walking away from the path He has prepared for us. Although we cannot see Him, in our faith we know He is with us. His words and light are available to us as they were to His disciples. If we let them guide our choices, we will not stumble. We will see everything from His perspective. We will see the Father as Jesus saw Him. Sadly, if we ignore His words or set aside His teachings, we will stray into darkness. In darkness we will stumble and fall. We will get hurt, and we will hurt others. Let us store up His words deep in our hearts and walk in the light and then we shall surely be safe.
Prayer
O my precious God, may I remain in the light and in the teaching of Your word. May Your word come alive within me, help me to remember and recall all of Your teachings, so I may never forget them. You have given me the Holy Spirit of God, as my Helper, Teacher, and Comforter; may He comfort me. I praise and thank You for all of Your help in the precious name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

New Blog Post: ‘Come Into God’s House and Meet with Him in Prayer’ – ‘In Christ‘
Then he said to them, “You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not. That is why I said that you will die in your sins; for unless you believe that I am the Messiah, the Son of God, you will die in your sins.” (John 8:23-24 TLB)
People will die in their sins if they do not accept Jesus Christ as their personal Saviour and Lord, He is the One who forgives sins. Sadly, many are so taken up with the values of this world, that they are blind to the priceless gift Christ offers. Our Father chose to reveal the truth about Christ to us. He has taken the veil away from our eyes and the bias from our hearts. More and more I can see who He is. My belief in Him is a gift from my Father, delivered to me through the Holy Spirit of God. I have heard the Gospel, and I repented from all my sins and believed. I have been saved from this world and it’s my destiny. I have passed from death to life! I praise and glorify the Father for His mercy and grace, He has shown towards me; through the precious name of Jesus Christ. He has broken the chains of darkness through the sacrifice of His precious Son. I am ever grateful and thankful He enables and empowers me to live my life for Him. Amen.
Prayer
Father, I am so grateful and thankful You have rescued and saved me from all my sin. I cannot thank You enough for delivering me from darkness into the pure Light of Jesus Christ when I believed in Him. Increase my faith so that I never waver to the right of the left, I ask this in Your precious name. Amen.
