https://odb.org/2024/04/09/put-this-on-every-day We are a new creation when we are born again in Christ, having awakened our spirit who was dead to Yahweh, God the Father. The Holy Spirit lifted the scales from our eyes to see the light, having an understanding of the salvation Jesus brings through His death on the cross and how HisContinue reading “Armour of light”

Hearing Jesus’s voice
https://odb.org/2024/04/03/i-hear-you-god I think it’s a given that once we accept Jesus Christ into our lives as our Lord and Saviour, we will eventually know and recognise His voice. In John 10:1-10, Jesus uses the picture of a shepherd and his sheep to convey this message. Basically, the sheep will know and recognise the voice ofContinue reading “Hearing Jesus’s voice”
Realm of the dead
https://odb.org/2024/03/11/embrace-today I think it’s tragic that when we are about to die that we regret not having made much of our life that God gave us. Like in the novel, Nicola, who was born with wealth and talents, felt she had wasted her life and thus refused to acknowledge that she has terminal cancer. IContinue reading “Realm of the dead”
Using whatever we have for God
https://odb.org/2024/03/08/its-enough The story of Moses with his staff is a good example of us using whatever God provides to answer and fulfil His calling on us. When Moses threw his staff to the ground, it became a snake, but when he picked up the snake by its tail, it became a staff. It was miraculous,Continue reading “Using whatever we have for God”
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 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”
Gratitude to God
https://odb.org/2024/02/04/rewired-by-gratitude I recall being taught in a non-Christian seminar on the importance of having gratitude towards the creator, the Almighty God. It is one of those things that could release some hormones in our bodies to make us happy and contented and satisfied. That is why, as advocated by today’s ODB writer, we as believersContinue reading “Gratitude to God”
Led by the Spirit
https://odb.org/2024/01/29/sharing-by-caring We just heard a message yesterday on loving your neighbour from the classic Good Samaritan story told by Jesus. Not so much finding out who is the neighbour to love but more becoming the person who loves, the person who intentionally responds to a need. Thus, our role is to be the Good Samaritan,Continue reading “Led by the Spirit”
