Happy Easter! Jesus is risen!

God loved you and I so passionately that He gave His only son to die to have us back from the hold of sin.

We reflect today on the much His death and rising up again means for us!

(John 3:16, Genesis 3, Mathew 27&28,Colossians 1&2, Ephesians 1,Galatians 3:13, Numbers 22, John 19:23-24)

Is it possible for us to see things as God sees?

We reflect today on how God can give us the ability to see if we ask.It will make a difference in how we live our lives.Elisha was all calm as he could see the horses and chariots of fire sent by the Lord and who were much more than the armies of the king of Assyria.His servant could only see with his physical eyes until Elisha prayed for God to open his inner eyes.

We can have a deep seated assurance when we are able to see as God sees.

(2 Kings 6:8-23, John 1515:26, Jeremiah 33:3)

Welcome back!

Have you ever seen a leaping calf? The cute animal jumps as of it's stepping on some electric wires and as if its head is jamming to some music 😉.

God delights in us having that kind of joy leading us to leap like such calves.We draw lessons from David on secrets to experiencing joy that knows no boundaries .

(Malachi 4:2,Psalms 16, 2 Peter 1:3)

Our podcast today is slightly different:-)...Sometimes we just need someone to hold our hand and agree with us in prayer.

We take some time today to pray about rest and God's promises over our lives as God spoke to the children of Israel.

(Joshua 21:44-45)

Be blessed!

We reflect on what happens when we pray and how we should pray.

We partner with God especially when we tell God back His word in our time of prayer.His angels hearken to the voice of His word.

(Acts 12:12-19,Daniel 10, Mathew 6:5-7,Psalms 103:20)

Proverbs 18:16-A man’s gift makes room for him And brings him before great men.
We reflect on a gift which God can bestow on someone over and above the gifts that are easily seen by others. This is the unseen gift that can take one before the king. Perhaps what then sets us apart amongst many gifted people. David was gifted in playing the harp but there were possibly other harp players in Israel but his playing carried the presence of God and so could drive the tormenting spirit out of Saul. Given, Esther was beautiful but so were all the other women lined up as Vashti’s replacement. The unseen gift of God’s favor distinguished her from the other beauties and she was crowned as queen. For these two, God’s hand was behind events leading to the king calling for them on account of their gifts.
(1 Samuel 16, Romans 8:30, Esther 1-2, Luke 2:52,1 John 1:5)
