Stay away from the ways of the wicked.

Image
Enter not into the path of the wicked, and walk not in the way of evil. Proverbs 4:14 In this world of cultural confusion, many things seem right to people but are truly wicked practices, which are displeasing to God. It is easy for those who know God to stray from the path of righteousness and turn to the ways of the wicked, due to temptations and the seductions of the enemy. Many have failed to stay on the path of righteousness because the Word of God says in Matthew 7:13-14, "Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. But the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few." To continue walking on God’s path, you need patience, obedience, and dedication to God, as this world is full of temptations with the intent to sway you. But if you have a personal desire to live a holy life, you will endure and stay on the path of righteousness. The W

What are the last seven words of Jesus spoken on the cross and what do they mean?

  Here below are seven sayings that Jesus Christ spoke from the cross (in no particular order): (1) Matthew 27:46 tells us about the ninth hour when Jesus cried out with a loud voice, "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?" Which means, “My God, why have you forsaken me?” Here, Jesus was expressing his feeling of abandonment when God placed the sins of the world upon him—and because of this God had to “turn away” from Jesus. When Jesus felt the weight of sin, it was the only time since eternity that He had experienced separation from God. It was also the fulfillment of the prophesied statement of Psalm 22:1. (2) “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do” (Luke 23:46). Those who crucified Jesus did not know, with full certainty, what they were doing, because they did not recognize Him as the Christ. Their ignorance of divine truth does not mean that they deserved forgiveness, and Christ's prayer in the midst of their mockery is an expression of the infinite mercy of divi

Be still and trust God

"For thus says the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel: “In returning and rest you shall be saved; In quietness and confidence shall be your strength.” But you would not," Isa 30:15 SUV  In this world, which is characterized by chaos, conflict, and uncertainty, the concept of strength is often associated with power, might, and military prowess. However, the scriptures offer a different perspective on where true strength is found. It is not in human strategies or military power but rather in quietness and trust in God. The word of God today delivers a powerful message emphasizing that our salvation and strength lie not in our own abilities or alliances but in quietness and trust in our God. This verse encapsulates a profound truth that resonates throughout the Bible: God's strength is made perfect in our weakness, and true power is found in surrendering to His will. Quietness, as described in this verse, goes beyond mere silence. It suggests a state of inner peac

Jesus needs your Love

To know God and to love God are two different things, but both are important. Today, God reminds us that what He desires from us is our Hearts to love Him. In the second chapter of the book of Revelation, you will see that the church of Ephesus kept all the laws and commandments of God, and in human eyes, we could say it was a perfect church. Let me explain to you what Jesus Himself said about this church in Revelation 2:2-3 "I know your deeds" - I can say here, that the Ephesians were Christians who did a lot of things for Christ, this gives us a clue that their focus was on their works which is what they do for Christ. "and your toil," they were Christians who labored extensively for the church and gospel.  "and perseverance," they had patience unlike many Christians today who lack patience with their God. "and that you cannot tolerate evil men," they did not tolerate sin and wickedness in their church. If you were a sinner, you we
