https://odb.org/2024/02/27/when-jesus-stops I think that the fact Jesus stopped and asked for the blind beggar to be brought to Him as recounted in Luke 18:35-43 (also told in the other Gospels with slight differences in the details) was touching as it showed His compassion and love. Jesus was not so focused on the task at handContinue reading “Healing of the blind”

Sound sleep
https://odb.org/2024/02/26/sweet-sleep-2 I’m sure everyone has experienced nights, which we found very difficult to go to sleep. My wife, who usually falls asleep very quickly, struggles when she drinks just more than one cup of strong coffee in the later part of the day. I, on the other hand, will face the same issue when IContinue reading “Sound sleep”
Luck or Godly intention
https://odb.org/2024/02/25/not-luck-but-christ The main distinction between our Christian view of creation versus that of the Big Bang Theory is that God intentionally created the earth and the universe and everything in it. The evolution doctrine, however, theorises that everything evolved over time and started all of a sudden at the beginning and rejected any intervention byContinue reading “Luck or Godly intention”
Good character
https://odb.org/2024/02/22/walk-in-my-shoes We all know Christian life is a journey to eternity that passes through this life on earth. Our passage through this life is temporal since eternity is our destiny. But like animals on the African plains, we need to eat to continue living although air is for all to breathe. As human beings livingContinue reading “Good character”
Open doors
https://odb.org/2024/02/21/an-open-door As we go through life, there are times when we have doors closed on us. We applied for a job, but we didn’t even get called for an interview. Or we secured the interview but not the job. It could be that promotion or even someone we were attracted to. Or a mision opportunityContinue reading “Open doors”
How long more, O Lord?
https://odb.org/2024/02/20/nothing-happened Today’s post will explore the some times frustrating and anguish wait for the Lord to answer our prayers. It feels like a long wait. We pray and pray, but God appears to be waiting for the right time to intervene when we feel that now is the time. If it’s a miracle or healing,Continue reading “How long more, O Lord?”
Habit of prayer
https://odb.org/2024/02/19/prompted-to-pray-2 I have heard before of testimonials by believers experiencing supernatural interventions in their lives in the form of a good Samaritan suddenly appearing out of practically nowhere to extend help. As suddenly as the help appeared, that person sort of vanished into the crowd, never to be found again. These believers later found outContinue reading “Habit of prayer”
Love each other
https://odb.org/2024/02/16/love-all When it comes to the commandments, the first is always love the LORD your God with all your heart, soul, and mind (Matthew 22:37). The second is to love your neighbour as yourself (Matthew 22:39). The third is love each other as I (Jesus) have loved you (John 15:12). The third commandment is higherContinue reading “Love each other”
Humility and Cooperation
https://odb.org/2024/02/15/humilitys-perk Ancient Godly wisdom teaches in Proverbs 22:4 that humility is the fear of the LORD, and its wages are riches, honour, and life. As the fear of the LORD is the beginning of understanding or wisdom, humility is the key to wisdom as the wise always chooses God over everything else. Thus, the best wayContinue reading “Humility and Cooperation”
Love and Commitment
https://odb.org/2024/02/14/motivated-by-love-2 One of the greatest blessings of having a husband or wife in the context of a Christian marriage is the commitment to be with one another through thick and thin. We build our lives together in Christ throughout the years, building our family and career while serving God in ministry and church. As timeContinue reading “Love and Commitment”
