 Our heart is so important. It is the seat to our Christian walk.
As a matter of fact, your heart is so important that it takes “all diligence” to take care of it. “ Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life” (Proverbs 4: 23). “Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life” (NLT) “Watch over your heart with all diligence, For from it flow the springs of life”.

 There are times that the Lord speaks to us; He gives a promise or reveals the intentions of His heart to us; only for us to sit and wait for it to happen.
However did you realise that sometimes the Lord is waiting for us to respond to what He has said or declared over us?
 A name identifies a thing or a person. They are words of which a person or thing is called.
Bearing in mind that what we say is important and what we identify with is important; could this have an impact on what our names are? We all know that God always has a purpose of doing something. Could there be a reason why the Lord changed Abram’s name to Abraham?  After all is said and done. Did you realise that there will be a new heaven and a new earth?
Matthew 24; 35 “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away”. This is why as believers we need to focus on things of eternal value.  It’s amazing how many spiritual truths we can learn from life.
I am sure many of us have heard the Lord teach us things from events during our daily activity. The centurion who was commended for his great faith learn't the principle of authority from his own job.  Have you ever gone through a difficult time and wandered “what is going on?”. Does this sounds familiar?
Let’s have a look at scripture;  The Lord knew that Moses was the right person for the assignment, even though at the time Moses himself did not think so.
When the Lord called Moses, it was obvious that he did not want to do go. This is some of Moses responses when God spoke to him.  Let’s assume you lived in a country where they had kings and queens and the king of the land gave you a gift. Would you appreciate it? Yes and again yes. As a matter of fact, you will be showing everyone you had an opportunity to, to let them know that the king gave you a gift.
 Being angry for the right reasons is not sin otherwise the bible would not have said “Be angry but sin not” (Ephesians 4; 26). In others words being angry is not sin (provided its being angry for the right reasons).
Cain was angry for the wrong reasons, which was sin to him (Genesis 4; 1-7), this article is not addressing that type of anger. The bible makes it clear that during the earthly ministry of our Lord Jesus Christ, He did not sin (2 Corinthians 5; 21), so we have a clear basis confirming Ephesians 4;26. A person can be angry and not sin. |
