God's Favour is led by His Spirit

Mothers are truly exceptional, no offense to their husbands but they are indeed the only human beings who are capable to bear pain that can almost kill themselves and yet smile after seeing their babies in their arms, who once inside their womb for about nine months. Amazing isn’t it? Surpassing this challenge is indeed a miracle for me, that’s why I salute our mothers out there, my full respect are all yours. I believe mothers can survive impossibilities; they have the ability to accept anything and everything for the sake of their children to be borne and living. They just simply love their kids.  Mary (the mother of Jesus), on the other hand, has a different case as she bore Jesus in her womb while she was still a virgin. She has not engaged yet in any sexual relation and is about to get married. In that time, that is something to be ashamed of knowing that a young lady was pregnant without a husband yet. But God has a greater plan for her and help her to get out of shame withou...

True Freedom Through Spirit-filled Lifestyle

I still remember that as I age more and understand what my true situation was, I feel even harder for everyday that ends. It was a difficult situation for me, indeed; but I thank God for He did a great job to put everything in my life in order under His careful instruction and supervision.

Only if we learn to believe that God does exist in our lives, then we can make use the power behind it to the most possible way.

He wants to restore not only the broken relationship between us and Him but also to restore us as His precious creation. We are the only creation of God that He breathed to live, and that makes us the apple of His eye. Paul, in His letter to the Corinth churches, reminded them the presence of...

Righteousness - A Work Of Faith

To most of us, churchgoers; coming to the church services is one way for us to show that we are active members of such church. However when outside of the church service, do we still keep ourselves active in expressing our faith? Or we simply keep ourselves quiet about it and simply go along with the worldly deeds of our unbeliever peers. The brother of Jesus, James, reminds us in his epistle that faith must be accompanied with works -- "For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead." --James 2:26. There are two separate phrases in this verse which are correlated with each other as the former refers to the church and the latter to its member. Being member of Christ's church does not start and end in coming and leaving the church service. Membership starts on the day of your salvation, the time you accepted Jesus as your Savior and repented on your sins; and ends in eternity with Jesus. Our physical death will not end our goal for ete...
