Find answers to several Bible questions while getting spiritually nourished with truth from scripture.
When you are saved, God gives you the Holy Spirit, who is capable of helping you put to death every sinful craving in your body, even to the point that it will not become a part of your thoughts.
The Bible says the Holy Spirit will give life to your mortal body. His indwelling in your heart doesn’t mean He’s done with you. He is the one who has been mandated to revive anything you have run short of in your mortal body so that immortality will manifest in your life. That is why you must submit every dormant area of your life to God for Him to bring life to it.
The moment God saved you, He moved you wholly from the power of darkness to the kingdom of Christ. That was a permanent spiritual translation, and nothing can change that. But it is one thing to be in the Spirit and another to walk in accordance with the Spirit.
For unbelievers, their minds are purely governed by their flesh because they don’t even have the Holy Spirit to confront them of their wrongdoing. But for you, as a child of God, you decide what should govern your mind because you have liberty. However, scripture urges that you should not use your liberty to sin but to serve one another in love (see Galatians 5:13).
Did you know that Jesus doesn’t measure your offering first by the size you give? Yes, He checks your heart first, not the size. But is giving vast amounts of money good? Of course, it is because it helps run several ministries. I have been a minister for over eight years (at the time of this writing), and I can’t overemphasise how important finance is in ministry.
Jesus said in Mark 4:30-42 that the kingdom of God is like a mustard seed which, when sown on the ground, grows up and becomes greater than all herbs, shoots out large branches, so that the birds of the air may nest under its shade. Guess what that means? God’s kingdom in you through Christ (see Luke 17:21) has the capacity to expand you so large that others can be dependent on you.
It’s not every spouse who lacks self-control when it comes to sex, although some do. But to be on the safer side, if you are a Christian and married, make sex a priority in your marriage. Do not deprive your spouse of sexual intimacy without mutual agreement between you two.
God frowns on sexual immorality, so He honours marriage. But He also knows humans are stubborn creatures who like breaching His laws, some for reason of comfort. That is why He charges people in some areas of life to do the right thing or face the consequences. Dear one, your body is God’s temple. Respect God enough to preserve it in purity.
In James 1:14-15, the Bible says temptation comes before sin. Those temptations are driven by one’s own desires (some of which may be demonically orchestrated). But without shutting down those desires, they entice you to commit that evil. And when you keep submitting to those bad desires, they grow till God eventually judges you with death.
I want to ask you, who is Jesus to you personally? Is He the One your pastor has been preaching about, or the One you’ve encountered in your aloneness with Him? If you don’t know Jesus by revelation, it’s time to step up and pursue a deeper intimacy with Him.
In the previous times (before Jesus came to Earth), God spoke through the prophets. But in this New Testament era, His current language is Jesus.
When God begins to handle your publicity, you won’t need to spend anything to advertise yourself. In fact, God is the One who begins to direct people to you without you even requesting them. That is what Zechariah prophesied about in Zechariah 8:23.
“Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth” (Psalm 124:8). This divine storehouse is spiritual, infinite, and provides straightforward help to believers with no strings attached.
When you trust something or somebody to do something for you, and things mess up, that is when your patience will be subjected to a test. Why? Because things may not go as fast as you want them to, and you’ll be forced to go and pray as you wear the cloak of endurance.
You must continue to be persistent in prayer about what you are requesting from God. That is where you must be shamelessly audacious. Some hurdles in life cannot be crossed over by remaining calm.
The spiritual battle is real, but so is your victory through Christ. You are not defenceless against the enemy’s attacks. God has equipped you with mighty weapons.
God has already given you the authority—you don’t need to fight for it. You need to walk in it. Don’t let fear, sin, or doubt hold you back from living in the power Christ has made available. Instead, rise up, take your place, and enforce heaven’s will on earth. Your authority as a believer is real, powerful, and active—if only you will believe and walk in it.
Focused people who are serious about work struggle less with porn because their minds are occupied. So, probably one of the most effective ways to deal with porn is to be serious with your relationship with God and busy fulfilling your divine mandate.
You don’t have to give your children everything the ask for, especially if they see that you have lots of money. If you do that, you’ll grow a spirit of selfishness and greed in them, and they will likely not have enough wisdom to manage everything you provide for them.
Where you have faith, you do not have anxiety, but where you do not have faith, anxiety coils like a snake—an instinctive reaction, tightening when you’re vulnerable. In a world of visible crises and invisible battles, cultivating faith isn’t merely spiritual—it’s the soul’s antidote to anxiety’s grip.
Because each person’s thinking pattern is different, it is possible to have team members disagree with one another. It happens in the ministry, workplaces, and even in families (among couples and siblings). However, handling disagreements in ministry is one art you must learn as a Christian, especially if you are a leader in the ministry.
According to 1 Corinthians 7:2, the anchor scripture for this article, marriage is a great tool to fight sexual immorality. It is better to marry and have all the sex you want with your spouse than to be sleeping around with people.Â
It takes a lot of work to succeed and keep going strong in anything God has called a person to do, not only ministry-wise. And that requires you to manage your charisma well. Learn more about this leadership piece.
Jesus is the resurrection and the life (see John 11:25). He can bring back to life anything people regard as dead and worthless. Is it your life that has become so bad because you messed up with it in worldliness? He can give you beauty for ashes. But when you come to Him, and He tells you what to do, don’t challenge Him or complain like Martha did when Jesus ordered for people to take away the stone that covered the tomb where Lazarus was laid (see John 11:39). Believe in Him, and watch Him do miracles in your life.
Have you ever felt trapped in a cycle of illness, convinced that it is a normal occurrence? Today, let this be a reminder that sickness is not your portion as a child of God. Your inheritance is health, wholeness, and abundance. However, where there is a delay, continue to trust His heart, even when you cannot trace His hand.
There is one thing I want to say about mothers, predominantly Christian mothers. It’s how they keep praying for their children and husbands. It’s such an awesome practice. But there’s something called praying the right way for your child as a mother.
God did not call you to add issues to where He helped you get your work. Your addition to that team should bring relief instead of pain. So, when a problem arises, you must have the courage to solve it, rather than turning on an idle attitude.
There are some times in life when things get logically frightening. People might play the devil’s advocate by trying to instil fear in you, but God’s word to us is to choose not to fear every one of those times. He has already empowered us against fear when He says, “Fear not!”
If you are in Zion (signifying those born again) and your life is too flexible (at ease or lazy), there’s something wrong. Why? In God’s kingdom, there is pressure to make advancements to establish God’s purposes on Earth. Don’t entertain laziness in your life.
Delve into the Word to uncover your inheritance waiting for you. Also, remember that God’s principles were established not merely for your benefit but primarily for God’s glory.
