Pray that you may not fall into temptation

As a believer, I have come to see that part of cooperating with the Holy Spirit who lives inside of us in the midst of temptation is to talk oneself out of doing the wrong thing. How?

1. Speak to the LORD about the reality and rawness of your sinful desires. Tell Him without fear or inhibition. Our GOD can handle your sinful heart.“LORD, I’m really broke and I feel like taking this money that’s not mine. I know it’s wrong but I feel like my circumstance justifies it. I haven’t paid my bills a...

The Life Of The Word

Imagine you were on medication that was sustaining your life. The prescription of the medicine required you to take it every morning before 6:00 AM and remain perfectly still for one hour; failure to which, you would die. Would you ever forget to take that medicine? Absolutely not. Would you ever fail to get the time to sit still for one hour? Of course not! You know your life depends on it. Who would ever be too busy for the life-saving medicine? Who would feel too lazy to wake up in the mornin...

The Danger of One-sided Stories

Christian friends on social media, let us normalise slowness to speak when we hear or read news from one spouse concerning a broken marriage. I am noticing a flurry of social media updates from hurting couples who seem bent to tell their side of the story directly or indirectly. One of the underlying effects is that the partner whose side we do not hear is disparaged as Satan’s deputy. What is worse is the online support from people who think they know what is going on and who have only heard o...

Irreverence

I was speaking with a friend recently on what it would take for the church to experience a revival. Without batting an eye he said, “Reverence.” It did not take long to see that one hallmark of followers of Christ that besmirches the faith is a lack of reverence for God. Reverence is profound respect, honour and veneration. God is worthy of it. As I read the scriptures I see that irreverence dulls and lulls the hearts of believers. When God is not given His due honour we become too familiar and ...

Recipes for Revival: Resoluteness

This blog is the third instalment of a series I am calling Recipes for Revival. We are looking at the necessary ingredients needed to bring about spiritual awakening. God desires that all people be saved and come to the saving knowledge of the truth (1 Timothy 2:3-4). He does not desire for anyone to perish, but rather that they repent (2 Peter 3:9). God is therefore in the business of revival. Revivals bring lost sinners into the kingdom. And they awaken sleeping believers into action. The thir...

Guest Post: My battle and victory over sexual sin

Today’s blog is a testimony by a married man who went through the recent cohort of Powerhouse. He will remain anonymous in this write-up. He asked me to publicly share a summary of his testimony so that many can hear and be free. May it encourage anyone out there that freedom is possible.

Regards,

Ernest
