https://odb.org/2024/08/30/whats-in-your-hand-2 When God first appeared at the burning bush and called Moses to deliver the Israelites out of Egypt (you may read this in Exodus 3), Moses queried who was he that the Pharoah would listen to him? The LORD replied that He would be with him. In Exodus 4:1-5, Moses continued to query GodContinue reading “What’s in your hand?”

God of justice
https://odb.org/2024/08/29/plant-justice One of the things I feel we should always remember, even if we have been in the faith for a long time, is that God is a God of justice. What I mean is that even though we have been saved by the blood of Christ and have eternal life, God will not hesitateContinue reading “God of justice”
Waiting and the promises of God
https://odb.org/2024/08/28/worth-the-wait-3 The story of Abram (he later became known as Abraham) is central to the biblical narrative as the nation of Israel came through him. The Messiah, Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour, also came through Abraham’s line of descendants, including the House of David, and consequently, all the nations of the earth are blessedContinue reading “Waiting and the promises of God”
Camouflaged Christians?
https://odb.org/2024/08/27/look-more-like-jesus John 17:14-17 NIV: 14 I have given them your word and the world has hated them, for they are not of the world any more than I am of the world. 15 My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one. 16Continue reading “Camouflaged Christians?”
Desert places
https://odb.org/2024/08/26/desert-places-2 Christian life, like any other life, has its ups and downs. While we look forward to the mountain top experiences, we dread the valleys. That is natural as everyone wants to have a fairytale ending, to live happily ever after, after getting past all the initial struggles and sufferings. But any ending when extendedContinue reading “Desert places”
Politics in the church
https://odb.org/2024/08/25/space-race It is common to have politics at the workplace as different groups of individuals align themselves with certain leaders. Sometimes, it is inevitable because a business division needs to achieve its business objectives and thus need to work closely with other business divisions, and as a result, some of the business leaders are politicallyContinue reading “Politics in the church”
Putting our prayers on God’s plate
https://odb.org/2024/08/22/gods-plate Recently, I had some worries and anxieties over a piece of work, basically how to tie in and align our contract with the client as the prime contractor with our contracts with our subcontractors. I eventually figured it out, but I recalled after having committed the whole thing unto the Lord. Sometimes, I alsoContinue reading “Putting our prayers on God’s plate”
Glorify Christ every way
https://odb.org/2024/08/21/a-life-in-four-words These four words are very apt to describe how we as believers should live our lives. “Glorify Christ every way” is a paraphrased shortened version of Paul’s encouragement in Romans 15:6 NKJV that reads: 6 that you may with one mind and one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. InContinue reading “Glorify Christ every way”
The LORD, my refuge
https://odb.org/2024/08/19/forest-darkroom We know that as believers, we are not immune to the rigours and rhythm of life. At best, we could flow along and make the best of what life throws at us. Sometimes, certain events are too hard to bear, and we falter. We get distracted. We get disheartened and discouraged. Some even fallContinue reading “The LORD, my refuge”
Honesty before God
https://odb.org/2024/08/15/convicted-and-freed Can anyone ever not be honest before God? Since God knows all things, even the things in the depths of our hearts. It is impossible for man to hide from God. For example, after Adam and Eve sinned, they realise they were naked and covered themselves up with leaves. Or after Cain killed Abel,Continue reading “Honesty before God”
