Be Glorified
This year has been far from easy. The pressures, stresses and burdens of life have taken a toll on us all, yet the Father’s name remains glorified. God is still using His children during a time that is frustrating, difficult and complicated to understand, to glorify His magnificent name. Even though we may feel beatenContinue reading “Be Glorified”
Unified
As Jesus prepares to be arrested, betrayed and killed on the cross, we see how he prays for future believers to be united in Christ. ‘I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I amContinue reading “Unified”
Divine Protection
As Jesus is about to sacrifice Himself on the cross, we see how Jesus prays for His people. In particular, He prays for the Father to provide heavenly protection and unity, as Jesus prepares to leave the earth. “I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world, and IContinue reading “Divine Protection”
Get Ready
How do you prepare for big opportunities? In what ways do you look towards the ‘big moment’?

Remain In Him
During these very unusual times, God calls us to not only follow Him but to remain spiritually connected to Him as a branch is to a tree. When we fix our eyes on Him, we display our trust, commitment and obedience to Christ. ‘I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain inContinue reading “Remain In Him”
Fear Not
After Jesus had humbly washed His disciples’ feet, well aware of His hour on the cross approaching, and told Peter about His coming act of betrayal, He states this in John 14: ‘Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me.’ John 14:1 When our trust is in Jesus,Continue reading “Fear Not”

The truth is, God has our best interests at hearts and our highest aim as followers of Him should be to glorify His name. ‘So whetherContinue reading “His Perfect Will”
