1 KINGS 19:11-13 The world is a noisy place. Or do I say a very noisy place? Even our worship of God has become as noisy as silence is mistaken most times for lack of zeal. In between the noisy moments and activities of this life, it helps to remember that the still, quiet voice … [Read more…]
JAMES 1:5. Have we ever had times in our lives when we needed answers for problems we were facing, but it seemed that we just could not come up with the right solution?

ISAIAH 65:8-9 Most times we look from the natural perspective at things and we are disappointed. We cannot comprehend that there might be another viewpoint, God’s divine perspective. The spiritual can be as unimaginable to a mortal mind as one dollar being worth more than three hundred naira (Nigerian money) is to a four-year-old child’s mind. … [Read more…]

1 PETER 4:12-13 The sea is full of salt but it is only extracted through the process of boiling (removing the water to retain the salt). We may not like the idea of going through fiery trials, but if that is what it takes to recapture the “salt” in our lives, we better accept it. God … [Read more…]
MATTHEW 27:51 The Holy of Holies was the place where God met with the high priest who represented the Israelites. It was more like ‘the dwelling place of God’ in the temple.
