Are you strong enough to stand? 1 Thessalonians 2.14-16

Good Morning.

Today, we find out what we’re made of, as we examine what others have endured for the sake of Christ. . .

14 For you, brethren, became imitators of the churches of God in Christ Jesus that are in Judea, for you also endured the same sufferings at the hands of your own countrymen, even as they did from the Jews, 15 who both killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and drove us out. They are not pleasing to God, but hostile to all men, 16 hindering us from speaking to… Continue

Loving Yourself

There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. Romans 8:1

Do you like yourself? I have come to understand that most people really don’t like themselves. Some of them know it, while others don’t even have a clue. This self-loathing is the root of so many other problems in their lives. God wants us to have great relationships, but self-rejection and even self-hatred are the roots… Continue

A Heart of Compassion

I'd like to share with you a prayer by Pr Onesmus. This is the path of his latest devotional conviction.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lord, take a look at my hand.

Take a look at my heart.

Mold it and refine it and set me apart.

I want to run to Your altar to catch the fire,

to stand in the gap for the lost world.

Give me a heart of compassion for the world without vision.

Then I… Continue

A Taste of Hell

Have you tasted Hell? Look no more, go to New Zealand!

I love New Zealand. The Land of the Long White Clouds. Greener than where I am now here in Sydney, Australia. Famous for its white sand and clean beaches, millions of sheeps, outdoor adventures, rugby (I'm a fan of the All Blacks), fishing spots, and home of Sir Edmund Hillary, first man to conquer Mt Everest. New Zealand was my home for the past six years and I can say, it's a country of friendly Kiwis - both the bird (kiwi) and… Continue

Prayer

Please keep me in prayers. My eye sight is slowly getting worse. Especially in my left eye. I have to go in to eye doctors soon to get a new prescription. Please pray that God will heal my eyes or that when they compare the eye tests that they will see something amazing to gloify JEsus. Also Pray for my family and I we are going on a weekend bussines trip and I feel like we need an extra hedge of protection round about us. Love in Christ. Laura

God of Wonders

“For me, the world of nature bears spectacular witness to the imaginative genius of our Creator.” — Phillip Yancey, Christian author

“What can be seen on earth points to neither the total absence nor the obvious presence of divinity, but to the presence of a hidden God. Everything bears this mark.”— Blaise Pascal (1623-1620), mathematician and theologian

GOds Soldiers

The world is not always as it seems and the test and trials that god puts us through can sometimes be confusing and in the beginning a lot for us to swallow. But the more we pray and the closer we become the easier it becomes to pass them and follow the instructions that he gives us .

Some of us are meant to walk in the light, to stand proud and keep the shadows out. Than there is those of us who are given a bright light so that we make walk safely in the dark.

Great Drums

O heart

with steady beat

beat a rythm for Him

The Great One

whose voice is rushing water

My bones have risen

from the desert

parched with sorrow

the prayers of the prayers

have called to me

"rise up!" like the beat of a drum

For the Great One

a small cloud

becomes a great storm

a small seed

grows an oak

and a stone

slays a giant

Let the sound of my soul

pound with praise

a… Continue

The heart of a pastor ~ 1 Thessalonians 2.9-13

Please check out today's passage~

Today’s Scripture:

9 Don’t you remember, dear brothers and sisters, how hard we worked among you? Night and day we toiled to earn a living so that we would not be a burden to any of you as we preached God’s Good News to you. 10 You yourselves are our witnesses—and so is God—that we were devout and honest and faultless toward all of you believers. 11 And you know that we treated each of you as a father treats his own children. 12 We pleaded with… Continue

Not capitalizing God in the bible?????

my son is in a Christian school, which we are really happy with. I his mother prefer a literal translation and use the NASB. My son's school has also chosen a literal translation the ESV. I am confused as to why when referring to God His name is not capitalized. Do you know the answer?
