Asking without ceasing

Image
Father, all praises to you. Today am going to write about how to ask our wishes without ceasing. One of my friend was down and I suggested her to ask God her needs. She came and complained nothing worked. I tried to explain her this. When we carry on a life full of mistakes, sins and stupidity. And we expect everything to change over night. Yes, God is God of miracles. He will perform wonders to those who believe. God is God of impossible. Matthew 19:26 Jesus looked at them intently and said, "Humanly speaking, it is impossible. But with God everything is possible." So it's perfectly fine to expect wonders. I suggested her to be patient. If she keeps on asking without ceasing. Am sure God will grant her wishes. It's never wrong to ask your needs to God. I will share two parables Jesus Christ told his disciples. 1 - Parable of the persistent widow Luke 18:1-8 One day Jesus told his disciples a story to show that they should always pray and never giv

Father, help me write this testimony. Bless this to touch a lost sheep of yours. Thank you for this wonderful experience. Am sharing my testimony that happened today. I am writing this today for a reason. If I give my mind a break it will add up and subtract details. Am blessed with good imagination. So, I like to share my testimony the exact way it happened. 2.5 years ago, I was working in a multinational firm. It was like a first job for me. I loved my job a lot. Had loads of new friends. I loved this new experience. I felt like am settled. I was like on top of the world.i had nothing to worry. Though it was a night shift job, I kinda adapted to it. Unlike my other jobs, I was dedicated to this particular Job. In that firm throughout the year I never bunked a single day. I was so attached to my job. Though I got better offers, I didn't want to move on. Major reason being my new colleagues whom I don't want to miss. They were like a family. I loved the way they cared for me.

May Your truth help people discern and embrace correct beliefs. I pray and seek everything in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen." How to overcome the urge to lie. This is that particular sin that we believers doesn't care much about.  We consider it as an acceptable sin. We got used to it. What is a lie? When we say something that's not true, that is a lie. And? When we hide a truth it is also a lie. And? When we alter few details that's a lie too. Then? When we talk something that we don't have an idea about. Then? When we want to be listened, we tend to add and remove few facts. That could be added to lies too. But, lie is everything that is not true. An average person lies 4 times a day. What's our attitude towards lie? In reality we just don't see the

Thank you Father. Today's topic is giving ourselves to God and trusting him. Trusting his decision and knowing whatever he does is for our greater good.

May Your truth help people discern and embrace correct beliefs. I pray and seek everything in the name of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Amen." As Christians, we are called to be peacemakers, as Jesus emphasized in the Sermon on the Mount: "God blesses those who work for peace, for they will be called the children of God" (Matthew 5:9 NLT). In a world full of conflict and turmoil, it is crucial to understand the biblical foundation of peacemaking and apply it in our daily lives. This article will explore the importance of being peacemakers and provide practical ways to cultivate peace in our relationships. A Personal Testimony Before delving into the topic, I would like to share a personal testimony. For the past three days, I have been trying to share the Word of God, and I encountered challeng

"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast" (Ephesians 2:8-9). This powerful passage from the Bible encapsulates the essence of God's grace, which we often experience in our lives without fully grasping its profound meaning. Let us delve deeper into the concept of grace through a personal story and scriptural references. A Personal Experience of God's Grace Once, I found myself unprepared for an important exam. In my despair, I helped a classmate cheat and, in turn, was tempted to do the same. However, my desire to maintain an honest reputation prevented me from giving in to that temptation. As the invigilator expressed sympathy, I noticed that many others were cheating, and a wave of emotions washed over me: fear of failure, jealousy, anger, and a sense of injustice. Amidst this turmoil, I submitted my incomplete answer sheet to the invigilator and eventually fo
