Discovering Truth - Verse of the Day

‘"This book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it; for then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have success.’ Joshua 1:8 NASB We do not fight against the people of this world – our battle is not physical. We don’t accuse others for the evil they do – it is a spirit. Satan uses various materials to trap us Christians – dreams, people, name it. Satan works through dreams more than God does. God speaks too our hearts. Life is spiritual – and one way to connect to it is through dreams. Satan likes us building hatred, bitterness and anger in our hearts. Sometimes you may see a relative or someone you know doing something horrible to you in a dream. It’s not them – it’s Satan wanting you to go against that person – building up hatred and bitterness. You see? The Christian operates as a spirit. The flesh does not profit anything (John 6:63), me...

"Make a joyful shout to the Lord, all you lands!" - Psalms 100:1  God says we should make a noise! This means we should love God, praise Him and worship Him everyday! Worshipping God can have a huge impact on our lives! There are many stories of how God uses Jesus or The Apostles to heal people. The very interesting part is when the person leaps and jumps for joy! Your praising God! In Luke 17:17 says "We're there not ten men healed? How come a foreigner of Isreal has only come to worship God?" How can I say thank you to God? By praising Him!Give a joyful shout! Even in times where nothing is there! God will restore it! There is always a trial in football to see if your good enough. It's the same with God! God tests you and trials you to see if your good enough! Get through that trial! Study References: Psalms 100:1 Luke 17:17 

"For, Whoever would love life and see good days must keep their tongue from evil and their lips from deceitful speech. They must turn from evil and do good; they must seek peace and pursue it." - 1 Peter 3:10-11 Some of us mistake seek peace, as seeking peace in this world. The only way that you'll find peace - is not in this world, but in Jesus. "I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.” - John 16:33. What will we have in this world? TRIBULATION, meaning TROUBLE. True peace is only in Jesus. Question: But what about all the troubles, wars and...non-peace. "And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for this must take place, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places." - Matthew 24:6-7. Jesus said this ...

"The Lord is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid" - Isaiah 12:2 NKJV Some of us plan our lives. There is nothing wrong with that apart from - will you be alive then? To be able to see your plan being accomplished? No, I didn't think of that.  Proverbs 27:1 says "Do not plan out tomorrow - for you know not what it brings". Most of the time, we want to be organised and planned out. That's fine when it comes to work, business etc. But it's not fine when we are in God's presence. We are supposed to let God be in charge when we are in His presence. Jesus said that when we should pray, we shouldn't let anyone see us. We shouldn't let anyone distract us either. Because Satan knows that when you are in God's presence, your fire kindles all the more. And he knows that when you meditate on the Word, the fire kindles more. So, he uses distractions. Here are a few:  Looking out of the window  Crying, shouting, arguing from another...

"I delight to do Your Will, my God. For your Law is written in my heart" - Psalm 40:8 Some of us just ask and ask and ask and...you know the rest. But we hardly ever think about what GOD wants, when we ask, don't we. Yesterday I talked about selfish interests but sometimes when we ask, it may not be about ourselves but about our obstacles or about other people. We pray "Lord, remove this obstacle" or "Lord, kill or harm this person for disgracing me", but, I tell you the truth, we're not supposed to pray this. James said, "Everyone is tempted..." - James 1:16 So, when we do have obstacles, we shouldn't pray for these to be removed! We already have power to remove them! We command them! We should sustain them by living right, keeping steadfast faith, and having peace that everything is well. That's what faith is. It's where we dwell on a fact until it happens. Hebrews 11:1 says, "Now faith is being sure of...
