God still chooses the foolish things of the world to shame the wise. He is still in the business of turning people rejected by society into sought-after people by the world for His glory. Do you feel disadvantaged in life? If yes, then be assured that you are part of God’s plan to lift you up. So, don’t give up on yourself. Only remain humble under His mighty hand.

Dear preacher, you may not agree with everything your colleague in ministry preaches. But aim for unity with him, not uniformity. All may not wear the same colours, but Christ must be exalted above all our differences.

God’s weakness is tied to Jesus allowing Himself to be crucified on the cross for humanity’s atonement for sin. That weakness (one-time event), the Bible says, is even stronger than human strength. So, just because Jesus laid down His life in a weaker state of His body doesn’t mean that he was weak. In essence, that crucifixion He went through is stronger than human strength, making nobody ever match Jesus’ spiritual capacity to go through that suffering.

As a minister of the gospel, know that God sent you mainly to preach the gospel, not to be so involved with numerous religious activities. Baptising people, conducting church weddings, funerals, naming ceremonies, etc., are all essential for people. But preaching the gospel should be the central goal of your ministry.

You, a child of God, have a definite role to play in the body of Christ. Maybe, from the start of your faith journey, you might not know. But as you mature in the Lord, you need to discover it. That will help shape your life, enabling you to make meaningful contributions to the global Church.

As a pastor, you don’t have to request any physical provision from your congregants. Let God do His work by touching their lives to bless you. But for you, focus on the work. Also, as a congregant reading this, consider factoring in some expenses in your budget purposely for your pastor. You’ll be fulfilling Scripture as you do this, and God will bless you.

What comes to mind when you think about “true worship”? For many, it’s more about singing slow-tune songs that end up adoring the Maker. That is good. But what if I told you that the definition of true worship has nothing to do with songs?

Dear preacher, when you go out there to preach the message of salvation for people to be saved, don’t neglect to highlight the importance of believing in the resurrection of Christ for the unbelievers in your audience. It is crucial and serves as the bedrock of the faith in Christ (see 1 Corinthians 15:17).

There are certain choices God made for you before bringing you into the world. You didn’t choose your parents, nationality (of birth), skin colour, and other fundamental background realities. So, instead of blaming God for such choices, accept them and live to pursue the fullness of your destiny in God.

Dear one, your life is precious to God. It is time-bound for you to fulfil what God has called you to do on Earth. Avoid using it for gratifying fleshly desires. Instead, use it to do what God has called you to do.

If you are reading this and you don’t have any desire to please God, or you have lost that desire, then it’s time to dethrone that “flesh” government on your mind and pursue a deeper intimacy with God for Him to restore your desire to know Him.

Suffering some setbacks may make you think that you are moving backwards. But what if I told you that those setbacks may be God’s setups for you to propel higher and faster?
