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.
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.
God was raising a whole nation through Abraham and his family line. So, He was meticulous not to allow people from just any tribe to marry or have children with them. God still defended Abraham because He wanted the Holy Seed, which was (and still is) Christ (see Galatians 3:29), to be well preserved. That’s it!
If I may ask, when was the last time you made enough time to study the importance of Jesus’ death and resurrection? Is it just a doctrine to you, or more than that? Today. I am glad to walk you through this theme.
Your heart is where Jesus or the devil resides. It is a spiritual home. For this reason, if you do not allow Jesus into your heart, the devil will allow himself into your heart. Your heart cannot be empty, and your heart cannot bear two masters. That is the reason you must pay attention to the well-being of your innermost being.
Everything Moses wrote in Genesis was not from his own mind. Instead, God inspired him to see all the revelations so that he could capture them in writing.
It is written in the Bible that nobody is supposed to separate what God joins together in holy matrimony [(speaking of marriages); see Matthew 19:6]. So, God hates divorce. That implies He has made provisions to address cheating in relationships too.
Take hold of your mind – don’t be ruled by just anything that flips through it. Whenever insecurity thoughts about yourself arise, focus on ‘whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable.’ Let your mind dwell on all that is excellent and praiseworthy, for these thoughts align with how God sees you and the unique purpose He has created you to fulfil.
One of the most profound questions in ministry, primarily targeted to young and upcoming ministers, is, “Did God call you”? I am writing this article to help anybody battling with the surety of his calling to ministry, and I hope you’ll get your answers after reading it.
Depression is a real challenge in today’s world, but for a Christian, it is not an insurmountable one. With Jesus Christ as your ultimate source of love and provision, the Holy Spirit as your Comforter and Strengthener, and the assurance of eternal life, you have all you need to rise above the trials of life.
God loves you and has a special relationship with you. Never limit it to some dos and don’ts you must do to walk in love with Him by your side. Until you hear a vivid instruction from Him to remove your footwear when you are in fellowship with God, don’t do it. He is more concerned about receiving you just as you are than your physical actions to prove to yourself that you’ve come before Him.
From 1 Corinthians 11:6, Paul was not talking about the scarf being used to cover women’s heads. He was speaking about their hair and the consciousness of their submission unto God and their husbands if married.
Avoiding victimisation, whether in health, finances, academics, or spiritual matters, largely depends on your faith, prudence, and commitment to righteousness.
Since the Canaan got cursed by Noah way back in Genesis 10, all his descendants formed part of the curse. God, who knew Jesus would come through a woman, chose to forbid the Israelites from marrying any Canaanite descendant all throughout the Old Testament because He wanted to preserve the holy Seed of Christ flowing through Abraham’s family line, especially Judah.
Since Jesus gave these gifts to men, it’s clear that not everyone in Christ has the same gift. 1 Corinthians 7:7 tells us that each has his own gift in Christ. So, if the gifts are diverse, then each believer’s function in the body of Christ is different. That means that when it comes to ministry, some will represent Christ using their gifts in full-time ministry and others in the lay ministry.
By prioritising your spiritual fervour, prayer, consistent fasting, and forgiveness, you can maintain the strength and joy needed to serve God faithfully.
A person who is not intentional about giving may give only in times or situations where they are asked to give. When this happens, it is hard to do so privately. However, where a person has a system in place for giving, they are able to control the events of publicity that may occur from giving spontaneously.
By choosing to love our enemies, we express Christ. It also allows us to break the cycle of hatred and create opportunities for reconciliation and healing. Loving our enemies doesn’t mean condoning their actions or overlooking injustice; instead, it’s about responding with love and compassion.
