    Will God Kill for me or you?

    Some Christians have heard prayers such as, “Anyone fighting against me, let them die,” or “Let fire consume my enemies.” But is this actually how Jesus taught us to pray? In this episode of Eternal Words, we take a careful look at what the Bible says about praying against other people, divine judgment, spiritual warfare, justice, forgiveness, and personal vengeance. We look at Elijah calling down fire, Jesus rebuking James and John when they wanted to do the same, Christ’s command to love and pray for our enemies, the Lord’s Prayer, David’s response to Saul, and David’s powerful prayer concerning Ahithophel: “O LORD, I pray thee, turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness.” There is an important difference between praying: “Lord, destroy every work of darkness,” and praying: “Lord, kill this person.” The Bible tells us that we wrestle not against flesh and blood. God is the righteous Judge, and vengeance belongs to Him. Our prayers can ask God for protection, justice, deliverance and for evil plans to fail without allowing hatred for another human being to take possession of our hearts. This is a challenging subject, but Eternal Words is about bringing Scripture to life—not simply to make us comfortable, but to allow the Word of God to correct us, challenge us and shape the way we live. If I would not want God to answer somebody else’s prayer for my destruction, should I be so quick to ask Him for theirs? #EternalWords #ChristianPodcast #BibleTeaching #Christianity #Prayer #PowerOfPrayer #PrayingForEnemies #LoveYourEnemies #SpiritualWarfare #BiblicalTruth #BibleStudy #JesusChrist #ChristianLiving #Faith #Forgiveness #GodsJustice #VengeanceBelongsToGod #PrayerLife #ChristianTeaching #Scripture #WordOfGod #DavidAndAhithophel #LordPrayer #Romans12 #Ephesians6

    Why Do I Really Serve God?

    Why do we really serve God—because we love Him, because of His blessings, or because we fear losing what we have? And can more than one of these motives exist in the same heart? In this episode of Eternal Words, we reflect on Satan’s accusation in Job 1:9 and examine our own reasons for fearing, revering, and serving God. Through Scripture, we explore gratitude, unanswered prayer, suffering, the fear of hell, and growing in our love for God. Is it wrong to ask God for provision, protection, or healing? How do we recognise when our obedience has become a bargain? And how can we remain faithful when life does not go as we hoped? This conversational Bible teaching invites us to examine ourselves honestly, bring our mixed motives before God, and deepen our trust in His love revealed through Jesus Christ. Key Scriptures: Job 1–2; Matthew 6:9–13; John 6:26–29, 66–69; Luke 12:4–7; 1 John 4:9–19; Ephesians 2:8–10; Psalm 139:23–24; Habakkuk 3:17–18. Take a moment to reflect: What has this question revealed about your own walk with God?

    “Hell Is Real — But We Should Never Be Happy Anyone Goes There

    Hell is real. But should Christians ever speak about someone going there with joy or satisfaction? In this episode of Eternal Words, we reflect on a difficult but important truth: hell is real, judgment is real, but God takes no pleasure in the destruction of the wicked. His desire is that people turn to Him and live. As Christians, we cannot remove hell from the message simply because it is uncomfortable or unpopular. Jesus Himself warned about judgment. But the way we speak about hell matters. Hell should never become an insult, a threat we enjoy making, or something we speak about with pride and self-righteousness. If God takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked, neither should we. We are not people standing above others announcing their destruction. We are people who have received mercy, pointing others towards the same mercy we found in Jesus Christ. So yes, we need to talk about hell. But we should talk about it soberly, compassionately and with the heart of Christ. Because the Christian message is not simply, “Hell is real.” It is also: “Jesus saves.” There is judgment, but there is also mercy. There is a warning, but there is also a way of salvation. And that way is Jesus Christ. May we never become comfortable with the thought of anyone being lost. May we speak the truth in love, pray for those who do not know Christ, examine our own lives, and continually point people towards Jesus. The Lord will help us in Jesus’ name. And may none of us end up in hell, in Jesus’ name. Amen. Scriptures reflected on: Ezekiel 33:11, Matthew 9:36, Matthew 10:28, Matthew 25:46, John 3:16–17, John 5:24, John 14:6, Romans 5:8, Romans 9:2, Ephesians 2, 2 Peter 3:9, Acts 4:12. #HellIsReal #JesusSaves #JesusChrist #Christianity #ChristianPodcast #ChristianMessage #BibleTeaching #BibleStudy #Gospel #Salvation #EternalLife #Judgment #Repentance #GraceOfGod #MercyOfGod #FaithInJesus #ChristianLiving #WordOfGod #EternalWords

    Are You Waiting on God—or Is God Waiting on You?

    Are you truly waiting on God—or is God waiting for you to obey? Sometimes we pray for change while our actions move in the opposite direction. At other times, we become so anxious that we try to force what only God can accomplish. In this reflective episode of Eternal Words, we explore the biblical relationship between prayer, obedience, practical action and trusting God’s timing. Prayer is not a substitute for obedience, and action is not a substitute for faith. What has God already asked you to do? And what do you need to release into His hands? #EternalWords #WaitingOnGod #PrayerAndObedience #ChristianLiving #FaithInAction #BibleTeaching #TrustGod #ObedienceToGod #ChristianPodcast #SpiritualGrowth

    God Sees Your Heart—but Your Fruit Reveals It

    What does it really mean to say, “God sees my heart”? In this episode of Eternal Words, we explore Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 7:20: “By their fruits ye shall know them.” This honest and practical message examines the difference between claiming to follow Christ and living a life that reflects Him. We consider repentance, accountability, obedience, genuine faith, and how our actions reveal what is truly growing within us. If our faith is real, it should produce spiritual fruit—not perfection, but visible transformation. #ChristianPodcast #Matthew720 #BibleTeaching #ChristianLiving #FaithAndWorks #SpiritualGrowth #FruitOfTheSpirit #EternalWords

    If You Want a Shepherd, Be a Sheep

    What does it really mean to say, “The Lord is my shepherd”? In this reflective Eternal Words episode, we explore Psalm 23:1 and the truth behind the title: “If You Want a Shepherd, Be a Sheep.” We often want God’s protection, provision, guidance, and peace—but are we willing to follow Him? This message encourages us to surrender control, trust God’s Word, listen for His voice, and allow the Good Shepherd to lead our lives. “The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.” — Psalm 23 #EternalWords #ChristianPodcast #Psalm23 #TheLordIsMyShepherd #ChristianEncouragement #FaithInGod #TrustGod #JesusTheGoodShepherd #ChristianLiving #BibleTeaching #SurrenderToGod #GodsGuidance #ChristianFaith #BibleReflection

    When Did Prayer Stop Being Enough?

    When Did Prayer Stop Being Enough? Why is it sometimes easier to believe God will answer when someone lays hands on us, gives us anointing oil, prays over a handkerchief, or tells us to take Holy Communion — than simply to go to God ourselves in prayer? The Bible shows us examples of anointing with oil, laying on of hands, communion, and even extraordinary miracles involving handkerchiefs. So the question isn't whether God can use these things. The deeper question is: where have we placed our confidence? Have we slowly begun trusting the things God uses more than the God who uses them? In this episode of Eternal Words, we look honestly at the difference between receiving something God may use as a conduit and allowing that conduit to become the object of our faith. Hebrews 4:16 gives every believer a remarkable invitation: “Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace…” You can come. You can pray. You can call upon God when there is no pastor nearby, no oil in your hand, no prayer meeting taking place and nobody available to lay hands on you. Perhaps spiritual maturity isn't about collecting more conduits. Perhaps it is about learning to trust the Source. The conduit may change. But the Source remains the same. 📖 Scriptures include: Hebrews 4:16, James 5:14–16, Acts 19:11–12, 1 Timothy 2:5, Luke 11:1–2, 1 Corinthians 11, 2 Kings 18:4, Psalm 34:17, Romans 10:13 and Matthew 14:30–31. #EternalWords #Prayer #ChristianPodcast #BibleTeaching #TrustGod #PowerOfPrayer #FaithInGod #ChristianLiving #PrayerLife #JesusChrist #BiblicalTruth #ChristianFaith

    Pray for Somebody

    Galatians 6:2 says, “Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.” There are many ways to bear one another’s burdens, but in this episode of Eternal Words, we focus on one powerful way: praying for one another. Not only when someone asks us to pray, but also when the Holy Spirit places someone on our heart. Sometimes people are carrying battles we know nothing about. We may not be able to solve their problem, but we can carry them before God in prayer. Jesus said to Peter, “I have prayed for you, that your faith should not fail.” What if we became people who could say the same about those around us? When someone suddenly comes to mind, don’t just wonder how they are doing — pray for them. 📖 Scriptures: Galatians 6:2, Luke 22:31–32, Romans 8:26, James 5:16, Ephesians 6:18, 1 Samuel 12:23 #EternalWords #PrayForOneAnother #Galatians6 #Prayer #Intercession #HolySpirit #ChristianPodcast #BibleTeaching #Faith
