Many people in this world spend their whole entire lives trying to achieve wealth, so that they can leave an inheritance for their children when they die and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. However, we need to realise that there is more to leaving a legacy than just material things. Most of us get so consumed by finding ways to make money and will literally do anything we can to achieve that goal, including sacrificing the happiness of the very children that we are struggling for... It's so sad that this has been a generational problem, the same message of leaving an inheritance of wealth is all our forefathers as well as us have focused on. There was never the same amount of emphasis given to leaving a legacy of love, joy and peace for your children to pass on. Teaching your children to live in love, joy and peace, exercising it everyday for their benefit and the people around them. The bible says the following about these 3 amazing fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5 v...

The world is so dark at the moment, so much going on, we can’t even switch on the TV and watch some good news, something to show us that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. It’s all negative and it doesn't seem to be getting any better, but one thing is for sure, even though the world is the way it is, there is a light and a hope, you can find peace within all the chaos. Jesus has said that we will encounter trials and tribulations in this world, but He also said be of good cheer for He has overcome the world (John 16:33), which means He will see us through, victorious, full of joy and peace.  How do you find this peace you may ask? Well, it has all been shown to us in the word of God, the bible. Start by: Understanding who Jesus is, the authority that He has. (Matthew 28:18-20) The role of the Holy Spirit in your life and ask Him to help you understand who you are as a child of God and the authority you have over every situation (Romans 8:14) Understanding the depth of the ...

  Now you are a part of this amazing family of God, what next? Well God definitely wants a relationship with you and sometimes it may feel hard to connect to Him because the world has made our hearts cold, due to disappointment or pain that has caused us to protect our ourselves from any further rejection. Then Jesus comes along and wants to introduce us to this love that is so pure and perfect, we just don't know how to receive it. How do we learn to let go of our past hurts and pain, so that we can connect to the Father's love? Here are a few ways: Trust in Him - trust that He has your best interests at heart no matter what your circumstances looks like, He works all things for the good to those who love Him - R omans 8:28.

What is He like? The bible says seek and you will find Him - Deutor...

Have you ever wondered what it really means to be a Christian? What it means to be a child of God?  Well, being a child of God is to understand who you are and grasping the importance of the sacrifice that Jesus made for you. The bible says in 2 Corinthians 6 vs 18 – “And I will be a father to you, and you shall be sons and daughters to Me, Says the Lord Almighty.” This clearly states that you now have a new Father who desires to have a relationship with you, just like any real father would. So your identity as a Christian is that you are a child of God and it is a sure guarantee!  It’s the same as how you don’t question your identity as a person. You are who you are, your name and surname, and your parents are who they are. There is no doubt in your mind that they are your parents, it’s just the way it is. The same kind of faith is what you need to exercise in acknowledging who you are as a Christian. When you choose to become a Christian all the promises in the bible come in...

  After accepting our Lord Jesus as our personal Saviour, most of us Christians still struggle in many areas of our lives because we don’t know the Holy Spirit is in us. He is part of the Trinity God the Father, God the Son and the Holy Spirit.   In John 14 vs 15-20, Our Lord Jesus Christ speaks about Him, ‘’And I will ask my Father, he will give you an advocate who will help you and be with you forever, the Spirit of Truth. The world cannot accept him nor know him. But you know him, he lives with you and will be in you.’’ What an amazing truth that we have an advocate and helper who lives in us! Now let us look at some steps to discover this Helper of ours: Firstly, we must acknowledge that Holy Spirit is in us living inside of us, just as our Lord Jesus said. Once we acknowledge Him, it’s time to know more of who He is so that we can start living accordingly. Galations 5 vs 22 gives us the nine attributes of a person living in one accord with the Spirit of God, these in...
