meaning

Hi there, So I work as a cleaner at the moment, and I have been really grieving over how much we - as a society - throw away. Junk is always there, it seems. But TV shows like American Pickers reveal that in the past, things were built to last! I don't want to be unfaithful in what is another...

Hi there, Just a little bread, for you: Jesus said "the end will not come immediately" (paraphrase Matthew 24:6), but actually, His Word applies even at the end. Even at the end, the end will not come immediately. People alive at the end, will no more be able to bring things to an end, than...

Hi there, So I will just be blunt, I know someone who had a great idea and tried to share it with other believers, and the other believers didn't understand. Maybe the idea wasn't that great? Or maybe the Devil deceived the other believers? In any case, what this believer felt was rejection...

Hi there, So just real quick, I do not want to spend a whole lot of time. I asked God, I said "You are a God of great signs - how will I know that I have fulfilled Your calling of me to be a believer?" He said "I will give you the sign of Ezekiel". Remember that Jesus said "the only sign you...

Hi there! Let's face it, adults are on their way out! If it wasn't for children, we would get nothing done. But I digress, what I want to talk about here is the value of the experience of a baby. There is some confusion about the significance of a baby and like self-righteous people...

Hi there, So this is just to establish that the "resurrection" is a process. You do not just "snap your fingers" and you are resurrected. Depending on how God has made you, different parts of your body will reach a state where they are alive again, in ways that vary depending on God. The point...

Hi there, I suppose you can imagine many prizes, at the Great White Throne Judgment (Revelation). The Lord sort of opened up my mind, to what they would be. There would be a prize "for the best interpretation of scripture", "most lives lead to the Lord", "most people preached to", "most...

Hi there! So every nation is different and those nations that serve (read: are slave to) other nations, must work all the harder to keep their perspective on God. In Australia, I think that means being familiar with the Lord's presence and His Glory before God. The Lord does not boast before...

Hi there, So who wants a pity story, right? The thing is, I am being betrayed on all sides, by bad choices, bad interpretation, bed expectation. I have schizophrenia, which in and of itself is neither good or bad, but interpretation makes it change. The bad choice, is for my physician to say...

Hi there, So yes: God loved us before He created us - loved every detail! He foresaw it all, the good times, the bad, the sin, the repentance and He loved us! Once God created us, He made His Love constant - waited for us to seek Him, to inquire of what He had done! He rejoiced to be tested...

Hi there, So I wanted to focus on something that I didn't actually think I would encounter as a believer. For a long time, I thought the problem with my faith, must be that I backslid; which constantly seemed to drag me back into doubt. Then I realised I was trying to "do faith" on my own, too...

Hi there, So listen, I was struggling with a sin/a temptation for a long time, then I finally kneeled and turned to the Lord and in the process I realised that I had had a fundamental change of approach. I used to think what mattered was my flesh and that my soul would be ok as long as my flesh...

Hi there, So this is a thread of praise and worship of God, but a special mention of the work of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit has a stronger faith than any of us. I used to think "I need to fix my Christianity" but in reality I needed to trust the Holy Spirit to do with my faith, what I...

Hi there! So this should really make you confident, that praising God is purely for the Love of it! Christ experienced life in relation to mortality, but keep Himself alive in God, by reminding Himself of the Psalms. But when Christ reaches His Father in Heaven, there is no longer separation...

Hi there, So you may or may not get something from this, because I am speculating outside the Bible - but from my observation, Lucifer (not "the Devil") is at work at the moment. The Bible talks about the Devil being let out of the pit, to test the nations - my understanding is that that...

Hi there, So this is a simple proverb I came across, which deals with the attitude we should have when we celebrate - be it in the world but not of the world, or with faith or with family. The point is, there is nothing wrong with celebrating something, as long as you don't do it all the time...

Hi there, So just to get it out of the way: my brother is trying to sell a house of his (its really time critical, because it is costing money), I don't know that you can force someone to buy it, but maybe pray that someone will want to commit and that will help. The other thing is: the Devil...

Hi there, So this is just calling Evolution's claim that we come from monkeys out for what it is: sin. There are lots of sins, but this one is particularly popular, at the moment. I defy it as a work of the Devil! Lord, we plead your blood over what "linking with an animal" robs us of, in Your...

Hi there, So this thought is just going around and around in my head: the Holy Spirit will teach a greater degree than Jesus. Jesus essentially taught the "fear of God": repentance, righteous judgment, atonement - we were expected to understand that our fear of God should in fact be a...

Hi there, So I have been wondering for some time what happens in the lead up to the tribulation and one thing I cannot account for is the notion of the Rapture - which I think may mean that a lot of people on Earth (of all faiths, meaning everyone) will "be called home" (die). It's something I...
