Somebody might say; ‘why should I even bother to know that?’, how about becoming informed of the extent of his godship in order to be able to define his territiory and by so doing keep him in constant check over your affairs. By how much is the devil the god of this world?
the rich man’s affluence was reflected in his dressing, food choices and lifestyle.
I have to note though, that one translation described what was described as luxury as waste. Why was Lazarus kept at the rich man’s gate?
The Victorious Christian Life is a way of life characterized by winning, conquering, overcoming and it is exclusive to a select group of persons called Christians. Join me to explore what the Victorious Christian Life is about and how to live it.
What exactly is love? What does real love mean to you? A feeling of being wanted? A deep connection to someone? Enjoying unwavering support and goodwill? Commitment? A feeling of security or wholeness? Love means different things to different people, depending on how they understand it and want it expressed. Interestingly, the bible provides a definite description of real love in First John 4 verse 10. This is real love……
“In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.” I John 4:10 NKJV
Have you suffered a heartbreak before? Have you been misrepresented, misunderstood or misinterpreted before? It hurts much more when people who are close to us hurt our feelings. Sometimes with such experiences, it becomes difficult to trust again, to hope again….
A deeply hurt heart, might struggle to love again because of lack of trust. Could it be that the person wasn’t loved right or did the person trust too much?
One day, I asked my children for a feedback on my parenting skills, I wanted to know what they thought about me. Surprisingly, my eldest daughter gave me the feedback that she didn’t feel loved. That was like a bombshell! Because from where I was standing, she demanded and received the most attention from me. Her feelings hurt mine. However, I was glad she the feedback and I adopted a different style with her.
The way God loves is the best. His kind of love is unconditional. It is not dependent on the disposition of the recipient, and has nothing to do with the feelings of the giver. Not selflish, and not compromising. It is the superior to any other kind.
if you are feeling overwhelmed by a vision, ambition or project, as long as God gave that idea to you, and as long as you prayed, consulted with God before embarking on that project, rest assured, it will be done.

A victorious Christian life is a way of life, a life of consistent victory, it is about thriving in the face of difficulties and challenging situations. With the existing complexities, hardships of the current world, a victorious life is a much cherished way of life. And the good news is; every Christian, every disciple of Jesus can enjoy this life. First John 5:4 tells us this much……
We are born of God, born of the Word and Spirit, with a spiritual genetics configured to have victory at all times and in all things.
Through faith, accepting God’s Word as true and patterning of lives according to God’s Word we set ourselves up for victory, in every situation, place or time.
God is our Father and every time we go to Him, He is ready to help us. He is always willing to help us sort even the most difficult challenges of life.
Isaiah chapter 53 verse 5, gives a picture of an exchange, it depicts the substitutionary sacrifice of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus.
What sets a Christian apart to enjoy a life of perpetual victory in a world where everyone is striving to thrive against odds? How is it possible to enjoy a victorious christian life in our current world? This is what this study series is about.
Faith perceives things which are not tangible to the human senses as real. This means that with faith, believing comes before seeing.
In Mark 11:24, Jesus says we are to believe that we have received whatever we are praying for, at the time of prayer, not when we see the answers to our prayers with our physical eyes, and not after we’ve expereinced them.
