She went off by herself for five months, relishing her pregnancy. “So, this is how God acts to remedy my unfortunate condition!” she said.

God is With Us
Suddenly a windstorm struck the lake. Waves started splashing into the boat, and it was about to sink. Jesus was in the back of the boat with his head on a pillow, and he was asleep. (Mark 4:37-38 CEV) One of the keys to living a life of victory is believing and knowing that GodContinue reading “God is With Us”
Have Faith!
And He did not do many miracles there because of their lack of faith. (Matthew 13:58 NIV) For the past few years, God has led me on a journey of discovering how the miracles of Christ are relevant to us today. And I’ve noticed that the basis for every miracle was faith. Almost every personContinue reading “Have Faith!”
No Good Apart from God
How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil, because God was with him. (Acts 10:38 NIV) This is one of my favourite Scriptures. For years I read it and missed the point. See, Jesus ofContinue reading “No Good Apart from God”
Jesus: The Gift We Needed

Mother Mary

He is Touched by Your Faith!
While people were crowding and pressing against Him, Jesus stopped and asked the question, “Who touched me?” (Luke 8:45). Then Peter jumped in with his two cents, “Master, the people are crowding and pressing against you” (v.45). But Jesus wasn’t referring to just any touch, so He explained, “Someone touched me; I know that powerContinue reading “He is Touched by Your Faith!”
Resurrection Moment
The devil thought he had won. Jesus was as good as dead, or so he thought. Then something happened that even the devil didn’t see coming – Jesus came back to life…stronger. There comes a time when this resurrection moment becomes a part of the Christian’s life. You experience a death of sorts and theContinue reading “Resurrection Moment”
In Times of Doubt
John’s followers told John everything that was being said about Jesus. So he sent two of them to ask the Lord, “Are you the one we should be looking for? Or must we wait for someone else?” (Luke 7:18-19 CEV) Even the great preacher had his times of doubt. When Jesus didn’t bring the resultsContinue reading “In Times of Doubt”
