If God be for us, who can be against us?

Being children of God, doesn't mean things happens easily, in fact, the bible indicates that God never promised that we would not face trials; however, He promised to be with us through those trials. Romans 8:31 says: "What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?" This gives assurity that no matter what challenge we may face, God is on our side and will secure victory for us. 

Every storm, every adversity is an opportunity for God to show off strong, in our situation. It might seem daunting, as though there is no way out, but when the time is right, God intervenes. Exodus 14:14 says: "The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still.” This scripture reminds us of what God did for the children of Israel, when they were headed to the promised land and Pharaoh was catching up with them. God performed the most incredible miracle for them, that made it clear that God was with them (Israelites). In the same way God was with them, He is with us too, fighting every battle for us. The battle belongs to the Lord...

The battle belongs to the Lord!

 2 Chronicles 20:17   You will not have to fight this battle. Take up your positions; stand firm and see  the deliverance the  Lord  will give you, Judah and Jerusalem. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Go out to face them tomorrow, and the  Lord  will be with you. These were the words from the Lord, spoken through His prophet to tell king Jehoshaphat,  as they were facing a big army that wanted to finish with them off. The most important thing this king did, when he was told about the army that was about to fight them, is that he went straight to God and told Him about this. He cried out to Him and even reminded Him that He was the one who saw their ancestors through  when they were delivered from  Egypt, basically  reminding Him of His power and faithfulness. He commanded a prayer and fast for the nation and this was when the Lord spoke to the king. God instructed them to not worry, that the battle belongs to Him, that all ...

Let us spread the good news!

 Mark 16:15 And then He told them, “Go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone. Wow, how amazing when God knits things together, I was sharing this with my Kids Ministry two weeks ago, and we touched on it briefly yesterday. This was a command from the Lord, for us to go to the world and tell everyone about the Good News! One may ask, what is the good news? It's simple, the good news is that God loved us so much, that He sent His beloved Son to die for our sins, so that we may be saved! Furthermore, His Son was crucified, died a painful death for us, but the good news is that He rose after three days, He conquered the grave, He conquered darkness. Our king is alive and seated in heaven on the right-hand of our Father, interceding for us! That is the good news! In the verse for today, Jesus is now commanding us, not to keep such good news to ourselves but to spread the news to others so that they too, can be saved and have access to our Father, the love He has and li...

Ask, seek...

 Luke 11:9-10 And   I   tell   you ,  ask ,  and   it   will   be   given   to   you ;  seek ,  and   you   will   find ;  knock ,  and   it   will   be   opened   to   you .   For   everyone   who   asks   receives ,  and   the   one   who   seeks   finds ,  and   to   the   one   who   knocks   it   will   be   opened . Sometimes the blessing or an answer/solution is already available, it is waiting for us to just ask. God already said ask and it shall be given to you, knock and the door shall open for you; seek and you shall find. One of the most important principle of God, is to seek. Matthew 6:33 that says seek the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added unto you. "These things" refers to our needs here on earth, God says that will be taken car...
