https://odb.org/2024/03/01/owner-or-steward Are we really the owner of our assets and money, or are we a steward for God? That’s an interesting question. Legally and in the natural, we are owners. The law recognises that. No one can just take them away from us if we had paid valuable consideration. The law is very clear. AnyContinue reading “Owner or steward”

Help my unbelief
https://odb.org/2024/02/28/help-my-unbelief Mark 9:24 is indeed a paradox as it expresses both belief and unbelief in the same breadth. The man with a son who was demon possessed believed and yet had unbelief. I guess we face this issue too every now and then. We believe God could do something, but perhaps we do not believeContinue reading “Help my unbelief”
Healing of the blind
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”
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”
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?”
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”
Pride and destruction
https://odb.org/2024/02/08/brought-low It is ancient wisdom written in Proverbs 29:23 that pride brings a person low, but the lowly in spirit gain honour. We are proud of ourselves when we achieve something significant or reach a milestone in our lives like we bought a nice car or a new house or a good guitar or theContinue reading “Pride and destruction”
