Isaiah 55:10-11 serves as a powerful reminder of the undeniable validity of God's Word. This holds particular significance in a world where human promises often fall short of expectations. We find solace in knowing that God is the keeper of His Word. Therefore, His words are not empty; He means what He says. This sets Him apart from us, as humans often speak without true intent or struggle to keep their word. Moreover, every word spoken by God comes to pass and possesses the power to shape our world and our lives. Join us as we delve into the validity, intentionality, fulfilment, and dependability of God's Word, using scripture to interpret scripture. The Validity of God’s Word Numbers 23:19 declares that God is not a man; thus, He cannot lie. This is a crucial distinction because God is a Spirit, not bound by flesh like us humans; therefore, He is incorruptible. Consequently, whatever He says is undeniably true, making it absolutely valid. Psalm 33:9 confirms this by stating,

Being humble goes hand in hand with our call as believers to submit to God. In James 4:6-10, we find a powerful reminder of the significance of humility in our spiritual walk and how God responds to it,  or its absence, which is arrogance.  Let's delve into this profound topic, exploring what humility looks like to God and its transformative impact on our lives. Humility in God's Eyes Humility, as perceived by God, is a profound surrender to His divine will. It involves not just acknowledging His authority but yielding to it completely. A humble individual abides in His word, seeking to align their actions with His teachings, thus following the example of Jesus. This is our calling, to be Christ-like. The humble person crucifies their  carnal desires, walking in the spirit rather than the flesh. Such a person willingly submits to God's divine authority, recognizing that His will supersedes their own. In essence, a humble person trusts in God with all their heart and does no

What makes the Gospel of Christ truly Good News is encapsulated in Romans 8:1-4. Verse one offers hope and assurance to believers, proclaiming, “ There is t herefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.” . To truly comprehend the significance of these verses, we must be mindful that salvation is an irrevocable gift from God, one that cannot be taken away. Furthermore, this gift was obtained on our behalf by the Savior of the world, Jesus Christ. Therefore, it cannot be obtained through works and our own efforts. So, let's unpack the profound message contained in Romans 8:1-4. What Does It Mean That Believers Are Not Condemned? In our flesh, we have never been able to remain sinless due to its inherent weakness and susceptibility to corruption. We have all sinned, making everyone unrighteous and guilty before God , who is just and holy. Because of this, we are all deserving of paying the penalty fo

In our walk with God, it's essential to keep in mind that He is the one who selects those to whom He will unveil the profound mystery of the Gospel. Too often, we witness debates and disputes between self-proclaimed Christians and non-believers regarding God's existence and the Gospel of Christ. However, the Bible unequivocally advises against quarrelling and engaging in contentious debates for those who are called to live godly lives. 2 Timothy 2:24 And a servant of the Lord must not quarrel but be gentle to all, able to teach, patient, God's Will and Sovereignty The individual who fervently argues about God’s existence or attempts to forcefully impose the message of their Gospel (which may not be the true Gospel) on unbelievers has, in essence, failed to understand the sovereignty of God. God is the one who determines when and how to reveal Jesus and the Gospel to those whom He selects. Romans 9:15-16  reinforces this profound truth, stating:  "For He says to Moses,

Amid temporary sufferings in this present age, we, as believers, find solace and strength in our unwavering faith in God. The Christian walk is not without its challenges, but it is in these trials that we discover the profound comfort that God offers us. In this article, we contemplate the verses of 2 Corinthians 1:3–4. God's Promise to Never Leave nor Forsake During trials and tribulations, it is easy to feel abandoned and alone. However, as believers, we hold on to God's promise that He will never leave us nor forsake us. This unshakable assurance is a pillar of our faith. We can always turn to His Word and find comfort in who He is and everything He has done and freely given us through Jesus Christ, His Son. Hebrews 13:5 NKJV -  Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you. The Indwelling Holy Spirit: Our Constant Companion God also provides us with His Holy Spirit as the

Revelation 21:3–4 paints a beautiful picture of the remarkable promise of eternal life bestowed upon us through the selfless sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Let's delve into these verses that offer us a glimpse into the age to come -  an eternity that is far beyond our human comprehension. God Dwelling Among Us In the age to come, we are assured that God will be with us and visible to us, a privilege we have been deprived of because of our existence in our corruptible flesh. As it is written, "No man shall see Me, and live." However, in that age, we will inhabit our glorified bodies, living out an eternal existence where our Creator dwells among His creation. 1 Corinthians 15:49 NKJV — And as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly Man. There Will Be No More Pain and Suffering Imagine a world untouched or tainted by crime, poverty, death, and corruption. It's a realm where the darkness that once shrouded our lives is banishe

In continuation with the theme of being saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone, let's delve into the profound words of Jesus Himself spoken in John 6:28–29. These words offered clarity to His followers when they earnestly sought to understand what they needed to do to carry out the works of God. In response, Jesus provided a simple yet profound answer: the work of God is to believe in Him, the Son of God, whom the Father sent. The Foundation of Faith Prior to this statement, Jesus makes it abundantly clear that He gives Salvation to those who believe in him and that it is the will of God the Father. John 6:27 NKJV -  Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to everlasting life, which the Son of Man will give you , because God the Father has set His seal on Him.” Seeking Signs and Believing in His Work As the dialogue continued, His followers posed a question: John 6:30 NKJV - Therefore they said to Him, “ What sign will You perform then
