Word of Truth

If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land. ~ 2 Chronicles 7:14 There is a cry for revival now more than ever because of the increase in immorality in the world. Oh, how we truly need a revival that we may return to our creator!!! There is a key to this revival that we desperately long for, and that is in our main text.  A clear understanding and appropriate application of this text will yield revival in due time. You may ask how I am sure of this? It is because the word of the Lord is forever settled in Heaven (Psalm 119:89). After all, history has proven this to be true. No matter how we cry or long for revival, if we do not follow this instruction from God, we will not have a revival. Even if God in His rich mercies grant unto us a revival, it will not last long, and we will be left worse after such. The first thing to notice in

(Genesis 12:1) Or, as the children of Israel, you have cried to the Lord because of your bondage in Egypt.

(Exodus 2:23-25)   Have you responded to that call or, still contemplating it? If you have responded to Him, glory to God. If you have not responded to Him, do not delay your response. When we respond to Him, there is a preconceived notion that our journey henceforth will go on smoothly without any obstacle whatsoever. We are disappointed as the children of Israel when we meet a series of obstacles. We then begin to raise all kinds of complaints ag

Thus says the Lord: “Stand in the ways and see, And ask for the old paths, where the good way is, And walk in it; Then you will find rest for your souls. But they said, ‘We will not walk in it.’  - Jeremiah 6:16 In the past couple of decades, we have had rapid progress in technology. This progress has led to a fast-paced lifestyle. Everything we do now moves fast-paced, and sometimes we want to take a break from it all. In other words, take a rest because we feel we are nearing our limit for a breakdown or burnout. We get breaks from time to time to rest our bodies. However, this is not enough as we cannot rest our minds due to things we still have to attend. The reality is that if we do not relax our mind (soul), there can never be rest for the body. The verse for today tells us how to get rest for our soul, which will also lead to rest for the body. To get rest for the soul, the Lord speaking through Prophet Jeremiah says we have to stand (pause though that might be inconvenient in

Luke 15:11-32 O the overwhelming Love of Christ Wide as the ocean, we can never find the end of it Reaching to the deepest darkness it brings in gracious light A Love that turns the vilest offender into a saint We can never get tired of speaking of thy love Love ever watching and ever waiting Love that took our dark estate and gave us His glorious estate O Lord may my life be filled with this Love That all-around me may see this Love and be drawn closer to this Love
