You will not lack anything that is needed. It’s in the Bible, Psalms 34:9-10, NKJV. "Oh, fear the Lord, you His saints! there is no want to those who fear Him. The young lions lack and suffer hunger; but those who seek the Lord shall not lack any good thing.” God will take care of your day-to-day needs. It's in the Bible, Matthew 6:31-34, NKJV. “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble."

He has promised the fruit of the Spirit. It's in the Bible, Galatians 5:22-23, NKJV. "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law." We are promised the Holy Spirit. It's in the Bible, Luke 11:13, NKJV. "If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!” The Holy Sprit will guide you and show you the truth. It's in the Bible, John 16:13, KJV. "...When he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come."

God has promised us new hearts and desires. It's in the Bible, Ezekiel 36:26, NKJV. "I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh." God has promised forgiveness. It's in the Bible, 1 John 1:9, NKJV. "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." God promises our sins will be far removed from us. It's in the Bible, Psalm 103:12, NKJV. "As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us." We are promised that our sins will be buried. It's in the Bible, Micah 7:19, NKJV. " He will again have compassion on us, and will subdue our iniquities. You will cast all our sins into the depths of the sea."

We have been promised eternal life. It's in the Bible, 1 John 2:25, NKJV. "And this is the promise that He has promised us—eternal life. God has promised salvation for our children. It's in the Bible, Isaiah 49:25, NKJV. "For I will contend with him who contends with you, and I will save your children." God can do the impossible. It's in the Bible, Luke 18:27, NKJV. "But He said, “The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.”

One of the noblest pursuits a child of God can embark upon is to get to know and understand God better. The best way we can accomplish this is to look carefully at the book He has written, the Bible, which communicates who He is and His plan for mankind. There are a number of ways we can study the Bible, but one of the most effective and simple approaches to reading and understanding God’s Word involves three simple steps: Step 1: Observation—What does the passage say? Step 2: Interpretation—What does the passage mean? Step 3: Application—What am I going to do about what the passage says and means? How to Study the Bible in 3 Steps Step 1: Observation Observation is the first and most important step in how to study the Bible. As you read the Bible text, you need to look carefully at what is said, and how it is said. Look for: ● Terms, not words. Words can have many meanings, but terms are words used in a specific way in a specific context. (For instance, the word trunk could apply to a

Grace can be defined as the free and unmerited favour of God as manifested in the salvation of sinners and the bestowing of blessings. Grace is a very common theme in the Bible, and it culminates in the New Testament with the coming of Jesus (John 1:17). The word translated "grace" in the New Testament comes from the Greek word charis, which means “favor, blessing, or kindness.” We can all extend grace to others; but when the word grace is used in connection with God, it takes on a more powerful meaning. Grace is God choosing to bless us rather than curse us as our sin deserves. It is His benevolence to the undeserving. Grace is unmerited mercy that God gave to humanity by sending his son to die on a cross, thus delivering eternal salvation. It is an unmerited favour because we did not deserve it. We deserved to die but God allowed His Son to die in our place. When GOD created Adam and Eve, He gave them specific instructions NOT to eat of the fruit of the tree which was in

“If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation…” 2 Corinthians 5:17 NKJV Here are three more steps to treating your spouse with grace: 1) See them as God created them to be. Focusing on your partner’s flaws doesn’t help either of you. The Pharisees saw only the worst in the woman caught in adultery. Jesus didn’t minimise her sin, but chose to see what she could become through grace. ‘I don’t condemn you. Go, and stop what you’re doing’ (John 8:11). Grace enables you to see beyond your spouse’s upsetting ways and work with God in helping them become the ‘new creature’ He’s called them to be. 2) Celebrate them. Too often we try to impose on our spouse our desired image of them. We resent them and insist they change, see it our way, and do things to our required standard. If they don’t, we think they’re inconsiderate, unloving, and even un-Christian. Grace doesn’t operate that way! It understands, accepts, forgives, and leaves changing others up to God. Try telling yourself, ‘Yes, tha

“…But where sin increased, grace increased all the more.” Romans 5:20 NIV You need a lot of grace in marriage. Even in the best of relationships, things happen that cause misunderstanding and hurt. Speaking about his marriage, therapist Michael Sytsma says: ‘Before I was married, God said, “Mike, you have some rough edges. To help you become more Christ-like, I’m giving you Karen. That should do the trick.” So he brought Karen…into my life to identify all my shortcomings. My first response when she points out my flaws? Not gratitude! Instead, I strike back: “How dare you point out those things? What’s your problem?” Then I have the opportunity of either denying my feelings, or owning them and maturing. And Karen can either harbour anger and resentment, or offer grace and forgiveness. Imagine a marriage filled with grace: a spouse who extends joy, pleasure, sweetness, kind speech and unmerited favour. My wife does that. I’m still working at it.’ Here is the first of four ways you can

Do you know GOD has a mirror? Yes HE does. The law of GOD is like a mirror. When we look into the law of God we see our deficiencies and we are directed to Jesus Christ for GRACE to be cleansed by the power of HIS blood. Without this, mirror, it will be difficult to see our true state. No wonder David said in Psalms 19:7 that: The law of the LORD is perfect, CONVERTING the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple. Delight in the law of the LORD; and meditate on it every day and night. (Ps 1:2) and you shall be BLESSED beyond curse. May you see the favour of GOD in your life even as you delight in HIS laws this day in Jesus name....amen. Shalom

Jesus left His followers with an epic mission: to tell the world of His love and His promise to return. They should also love people the way He loved them. Entrusting humans with His message was a bold and risky move. But even though God knew people would often fail Him and even distort His truth, He wanted to work with us. The risk was worth the reward. As followers of Jesus, the church is called and inspired to act like Him: selflessly serving others, relying on God for strength, absorbing God’s Word and telling the world about God’s love. Male and female, rich and poor, people from all backgrounds or ethnicities are all equal in Jesus.  The church supports and encourages one another through time together in worship and Bible study. Christians celebrate Jesus’ covenant with them through the ceremony of the Lord’s Supper, remembering Jesus’ example of service and sacrifice. The church celebrates each member’s salvation through the ritual of baptism by immersion. The church i

Prayer is the simple act of having a conversation with God. It’s about talking with the Creator of the Universe: whether aloud or in our thoughts, during special or ordinary moments, when we’re on the move or before we go to bed. It’s the privilege we get as His children—a direct connection to God. No voicemail messages, no call waiting. Some may see prayer as a one-way conversation, or even worse, a conversation with ourselves, but studies have shown that not only does it improve our quality of life (1), it actually has the power to heal. Scientists say interactions with God through prayer give us the ability to better manage our negative emotions (2) and reduce our aggression towards others (3). According to researchers Marek Jantos and Hosen Kiat (4), “[Prayer] should be recognized as an important resource for coping with pain and illness and improving health and general well-being.” The Bible even promises that when we pray, we will experience “the peace of God, which tran

Look at a football field. It looks like a big movie screen. This is theatre. Football combines the strategy of chess. It's part ballet. It's part battleground, part playground. We clarify, amplify and glorify the game with our footage, the narration and that music, and in the end create an inspirational piece of footage.

INTRODUCTION The subject of Christian standards and fashion today is a very sensitive Subject. The youth in the Adventist Church today want the world to admire their appearance, not to criticize it. If you express your disapproval of the way the youth in the Church appear in suggestive clothing, chances are that they will tell you, “What I wear is none of your business! If you don’t like it, don’t look at me!” People don’t want you to comment about what they wear. There are many sincere Adventist Youth who see nothing wrong in wearing revealing clothes and fashionable jewelry, because everybody wears them. One thing we must note from this point before continuing with this presentation is the fact that, Clothes do not make an Adventist but Adventists do reveal their identity through their clothes and appearance. DISCUSSION QUESTIONS: Please before you proceed with the presentation, let the youth answer the following questions concerning how Adventist pastors and their wives should

Dr. Abraham, a well known cancer specialist, was once on his way to an important conference in another city where he was going to receive an award in the field of medical research. He was excited about the award and so boarded a plane to the venue. However, two hours after the plane took off, it made an emergency landing at the nearest airport due to a technical problem. Afraid that he would not make it in time to the conference, he immediately went to the reception to make enquiries. He found out that he would have to wait ten hours for the next flight to his destination! He rented a car and drove himself to the conference city which was four hours away.

The Trinity There is one God, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, a unity of three co-eternal Persons usually called the Trinity. God the Father is the Creator, Source, Sustainer, and Sovereign of all creation. God the eternal Son became incarnate in Jesus Christ, through whom all things were created; the character of God is revealed; the salvation of humanity is accomplished; and the world is judged. God the Holy Spirit draws men and women to Himself and gives spiritual gifts to the Church. Christ our Hope In Christ's life of perfect obedience to God's will, His suffering, death, and resurrection, God provided the only means of atonement for human sin, so that those who by faith accept this atonement have eternal life. Christ's Return The second coming of Christ is the blessed hope of the Church, the grand climax of the Gospel. His coming will be literal, personal, visible, and world-wide. When He returns the righteous dead will be resurrected and together with

Sesame seeds—those tiny tasty toppings you may encounter on bagels, breadsticks, and hamburger buns, as well as on sushi rolls and sesame chicken—are called the “queen of oil seeds” for good reason. Though they are not as much in the limelight as flaxseed, chia, and other so-called “super seeds,”  they are a notable source of nutrients, including protein, iron, zinc, copper, vitamin E, thiamin, calcium, magnesium, and manganese, plus unique lignans (sesamin and sesamolin), phytosterols (predominantly B-sitosterol), fiber, and other potentially beneficial compounds. By weight, about half the seed is fat—mostly unsaturated.  An ounce (3 tablespoons) has about 160 calories, 14 grams of fat, 5 grams of protein, and 4 grams of fiber. The seeds, which vary in color from tan to black depending on their type and preparation, grow in the pods of a flowering plant, Sesamum indicum , native to India and Africa. The pods resemble okra  and, like okra, are technically fruits. When t

Shea Butter Insight The Shea Tree (Butyrospermum parkii or Vitellaria paradoxa ) occurs in a geographical band of sub sarah Countries including Mali, Cameroon, Congo, C^ote d ' Ivoire, Ghana, Guinea, Togo, Nigeria, Senegal, Sudan, Burkina Faso and Uganda. In Ghana the tree only occurs in the North of the Country. Trees take time to mature and it usually takes at least 10 years before the trees even flower. The plum like fruit which are green first then brown later contain the nuts which are oil rich seeds that when processed yield a product know as Shea Butter. Genuine Shea Butter should not be confused with another vegetable based butter know as African Butter. Traditionally processing of the nuts was time consuming & arduous involving boiling the nuts, sun drying & then a pulverizing stage. Shea butter has actually been around a long time & was mentioned as being transported in clay pots in camel trains around the time of Cleopatra where it would have been
