Who Are You Accountable To?



'Two are better than one...' Ecclesiates 4:9



On February 26, 1995, Barings, the oldest bank in Britain, announced it was going into bankruptcy after losing almost a billion dollars. In late 1994 the chief trader at Barings' Singapore office began betting big on Japan's Nikkei market. Then disaster struck. An earthquake hit Japan and on January 23, 1995, the Nikkei plunged more than 1,000 points, and Barings lost big money. But instead of cutting his losses the Barings'… Continue

"You shall drink of the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to feed you THERE." -1 Kings 17:4 (AMP)



"You shall drink of the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to feed you THERE."

-1 Kings 17:4 (AMP)



God has a plan and purpose for every one of His children, it is important

for us to know this and align ourselves into His plan for our lives in

order for us to benefit wholly from His grace and provision.

God instructed Elisha to go to the brook, it didn’t seem to be a very good

idea then, as there was famine in the land, the credit crunch was so

bad,… Continue

Three Stages in Your Walk with God



Three times the Bible says, '...Abraham lifted his eyes...' They represent three stages in your walk with God: 1) When God reveals Himself to you. 'Then the Lord appeared to him...as he was sitting in the tent door...So he lifted his eyes and looked, and behold, three men [angels] were standing by him; and when he saw them, he...bowed himself to the ground, and said '"...do not pass on by Your servant'' (Genesis 18:1-3 NKJV). There must be a moment in your life when you meet the Lord,… Continue

HIT THE PEDAL AND KEEP GOING



"And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God."

Luke 9:62



“The most common trait I have found in all people that are successful

is that they have conquered the temptation to give up.”

Peter Lowe



The key to winning in life is to hit the pedal and keep going. There will

always be some hiccups here, missteps there, but no matter what, don’t

stop. Sometimes, it might look like… Continue

Go All the Way



'...And go all the way with him...' Philippians 3:10



While John was a prisoner on the Isle of Patmos, far from his loved ones and

surrounded by the cries of abused captives, he had a vision of Jesus.

He writes, '...When I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead...'

(Revelation 1:17 NKJV). Incredible revelation in the midst of

confinement, chaos and pain; that's how it works! The difficult

circumstances you're going through right now can actually clear… Continue

MONEY CAN NOT BUY YOU THE KINDGOM OF GOD



'"Because you have been trustworthy..."' Luke 19:17



Money will buy you a bed but not sleep, books but not brains, food but not an

appetite, a house but not a home, medicine but not health, luxuries but

not happiness, image but not character, and religion but not salvation.

You say, 'Does that mean God doesn't want me to have money?' No, He

will actually trust you with more money when you demonstrate that your

trust is not in your money, but in Him alone… Continue

When Your Prayer Life Goes



'"...Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation..."' Matthew 26:41



The enemy knows what your God-given potential is, and he's out to stop you

before you reach it. Prayer puts a shield of divine protection around

you; don't live without it! There are hands holding this devotional

that may not be here next year unless somebody prays on their behalf

(Luke 22:31). There are people reading this page who thought that they,

of all people, would never 'blow… Continue

For Heaven's Sake!



'We are citizens of heaven.' Philippians 3:20



Patrick Jenkins says, 'Having lived in South America as missionaries, my family and I

realised that moving to another jungle location meant a lot of work. We

knew the discomforts of such things as snakes and bugs. One morning, a

few days after beginning to clean our temporary home, the family and I

were taking a short break. While we were drinking tea a large black

beetle flew through the room making a loud… Continue

Protected by Angels

'...He will order his angels to protect you wherever you go.' Psalm 91:11



Every two weeks the missionary went to the city to purchase medical supplies for a small field hospital where he served. On one of his trips he saw two men fighting on the street. One was seriously injured so he stopped, treated his wounds and shared God's love with him. Then he headed for home, stopping in the jungle to camp overnight. When he visited the city two weeks later a man approached him; the same one… Continue

It's a Test of Faith



'...you... tested us... refined us like silver... brought us to a place of abundance.' Psalm 66:10-12



When Jesus explained the cost of following Him, some of His disciples walked

away. Yet the impact of those who didn't is still felt in the world

today. By the time they wrote their epistles, His apostles had learned

to see every test in life as a chance to strengthen their faith and

multiply their effectiveness. Tests of faith are opportunities… Continue

God Is Still on the Throne!



'In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord seated on a throne...' Isaiah 6:1



The Bible says that in the end times certain things will happen. For

example, 1) '...you will hear of wars... famines... and earthquakes...'

(Matthew 24:6-7 NKJV). For much of the world, these things are now a

daily reality. 2) Jesus said, '...many will come in My name... and will

deceive many' (Matthew 24:5 NKJV). In recent years we've seen the rise

of false prophets… Continue

Have a Not-to-Do List





'...My purpose is to give them a rich... satisfying life.' John 10:10



Jesus wants you to enjoy a '...rich... satisfying life' (John 10:10 NLT),

without getting bogged down by things that don't add value or meaning.

Life coach Robyn Coffman says, 'Clutter isn't only what you can see;

it's what you can't see. It perpetuates your overloaded schedule,

endless commitments and overwhelming fears. A cluttered mind means

over-thinking, over-reacting,… Continue

Fight for Your Family



Eli the High Priest lived to see his two sons killed in battle, the Ark of the Covenant captured by the Philistines, and his daughter-in-law

give birth to a child called Ichabod, which means 'the glory has

departed from Israel'. There's a lesson here. Today the devil is trying

to take the Ark - God's influence - out of our homes. Through media and

peer pressure the forces of darkness are seeking to capture the minds

of our children by exposing them to the wrong… Continue
