“And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.” Luke 1:38 (KJV)   David was a man who dared to believe what God says about him. People tried to talk David out of going against Goliath and he said, “Is there not a cause”? Is there no reason to stand for God? Is...

“And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace” John 1:16 (KJV)   Jesus was called a friend of sinners. They could not understand His purpose. He kept trying to make them understand, grace. They brought a woman who was caught in adultery to Him, expecting Him to condemn the woman. They brought her to Grace and when she came to Grace, she received...

“His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it” John 2: 5 (KJV) So many people have robbed themselves of God’s supernatural intervention in their lives because what they are supposed to do, often defies all logic. You must understand that His thoughts are not our thoughts, and His ways are higher than our ways (Isaiah 55:8). In our text for today, it was obvious...

“We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain.” 2 Corinthians 6:1 (KJV) It has become necessary for me to sound this warning as we begin this new year. Be careful, lest you frustrate the Grace of God upon your life. God has ordained a corner for you to cover. He has specially packaged you to function in...

“Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee, and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.” Jeremiah 1:5 (KJV) God has a prepared place and a prepared destiny for you. And the good news is that He knows how to get you there. Temporal distractions, obstacles, and impediments cannot abort God’s plan for your...

“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.” Jeremiah 29:11 (KJV) There is no person born on the surface of this earth that is an accident. Ever before you were born, there were things that God already predetermined about you. He had already planned out what He wanted you to become...

“After these things the word of the Lord came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.” The year 2023 is your year of exceeding great reward. God is set to do incredible things in quick succession in your life. Those things that you assume forgotten are coming into the light and God is telling you “I have not...

  “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning” James 1:17 (KJV) Grace is God’s unmerited favour. It is unearned and undeserved. It is God’s disposition to show us good. God is good and does good. Grace is not about what you did right or wrong. It is...

“And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.” Luke 2:10 (KJV)   We are in that season where we celebrate the birth of Jesus. I love the scripture for today, it says “Fear not … I bring you good tidings …” Child of God, fear not.   It is so sad that many...

  “Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” Matthew 6:31-33 (KJV)   It...
