  God created you uniquely. Once you know who you are and understand the purpose of your creation, and you value the work God created you to do and perform it diligently, what you need to do is wait for God to elevate and bless you. Paul told the Corinthians, "I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God has been making it grow. 1 Corinthians 3:6."  In life, you will do something and then have to wait for God to grow it. You must not interfere with God's process of increasing it; you will wait only. Some people feel delayed in life and success because they compare themselves to others. Due to pressure from the environment and close people, you might doubt the purpose for which God called you. When you see yourself delayed in achieving the goals and promises God has given you, or you become discouraged and use improper means to seek success. Everyone has their own purpose, blessing, and time, so we can not be the same. Do not compare or compete with anyone. The word of ...

  Do you see someone skilled in their work? They will serve before kings; they will not serve before officials of low rank. Proverbs 22:29 Once you know your purpose here on Earth, what follows is diligence. When God gives you work, He also grants you the grace to succeed, even if you feel unworthy or find the work difficult. Your work will indeed be honored when you are diligent in this grace. Apostle Paul said: "For I am the least of the apostles and do not even deserve to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. But by the grace of God, I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them—yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me. 1 Corinthians 15:9-10" Some people think that serving God or being called by God means you must be a preacher like a Pastor, Evangelist, or Priest. This is not true. Every legitimate work that enables a person to live well is a gift from God. God purposely created you to do t...

"Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you, before you were born I set you apart... Jeremiah 1:5"  T he most important question in your life that you must first ask yourself and make sure you get the correct answer is, "Who am I?" Because if you do not know who you are here on earth, you may live a life that has no benefit, especially to your creator.  Why do I say this? You were created for God's purpose, "You are not a result of a natural process." G od created you for a purpose, which is why He told Prophet Jeremiah, "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you," For your life to be beneficial to God, you must fulfil His purpose.  So, the important thing here is to ask yourself, "Who does God know me as?" Then He says, "And before you were born, I set you apart." I f Jeremiah was set apart for a special work, then everyone is set apart for a special work. For Jeremiah, God told him, "I appointed you as a ...

  "Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things." Colossians 3:2 After God created all creatures, He created man and placed him on earth to rule over them. A human being was created uniquely. Genesis 2:7 says "Then the LORD God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being."  That breath of life from God is what made us different from all other creatures it is the evidence of our divine nature. that we do not have an earthly nature; we are created in the image of God and carry His nature. Therefore, when the word of God says, "Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things,"  it is because one of the greatest effects of sin was to corrupt the understanding of man. Sin greatly affects your thinking, making you focus only on the things you see here on Earth. When Jesus Christ saved us, we were restored to a position of dominion, and the divine nature was restored ...

  "He who was seated on the throne said, 'I am making everything new!' Then he said, 'Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.'" Revelation 21:5 God is the creator of everything on earth, and everything He created was good. Genesis 1:31 states, "God saw all that he had made, and it was very good."   However, after Adam and Eve disobeyed God, sin brought a curse upon the earth. Genesis 3:16-23 describes how God punished humanity and cursed the earth, which He had initially created as good and pleasing. Additionally, after Cain killed his brother, Genesis 4:11-12 recounts how God pronounced a curse upon him, saying, "Now you are under a curse and driven from the ground, which opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand. When you work the ground, it will no longer yield its crops for you. You will be a restless wanderer on the earth." Therefore, sin and curse destroy the world, making human life difficult ...

  But those who wait for the Lord will renew their strength; they will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary; they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:3 Patience is a spiritual virtue, a gift that comes from God Himself. The Holy Spirit gives you endurance, and endurance cultivates patience. In the book of Galatians 5:22, it says, "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness."  You can see that patience is one of the fruits of the Holy Spirit within you. What does it mean to wait for the Lord? Waiting for the Lord does not mean sitting idly and doing nothing. No! Firstly, those who wait for the Lord are people with expectations. They have already done some work or task and are now waiting for God to do something to complete what they started. You can see in this verse that the strength being awaited here is to enable you to move forward. So, waiting for the Lord means staying calm with faith and expectati...

  "The curse of the LORD is on the house of the wicked, but He blesses the home of the righteous." Proverbs 3:33 Some people believe that the Old Covenant ended 2000 years ago after Jesus died on the cross. Therefore, they believe that the curses and punishments written in the Torah no longer exist in the world. This view is not correct because even now, people are living under the Old Covenant. The Old Covenant ends when you believe in Jesus Christ. Firstly, the Old Covenant written in the Bible, which is also called the Torah, was specifically for the nation of Israel. If you are not an Israelite, you are not under that covenant. But the punishments and judgments written in that covenant were used by God to govern the entire world. So, if you have not accepted Jesus Christ, the curses written in the Bible will be upon you when you sin against God. Therefore, I wish you take today's word very seriously, which says: "The curse of the LORD is on the house of the wicke...

  Words hold great power; they can build or destroy. The Bible frequently discusses the importance of our words, illustrating how they can shape our lives and the lives of others. Today, I will discuss the power of words to build or destroy and the importance of wisdom in our speech. The Power to Build Words have the ability to build, inspire, and encourage. Kind, loving, and truthful words can inspire, heal, and strengthen relationships. The Bible shows how words have this building power: Proverbs 16:24: "Gracious words are like a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul and health to the body." Ephesians 4:29: "Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear." In the New Testament, the words of Jesus are shown to bring life and transformation. For instance, when Jesus speaks to the Samaritan woman at the well, His words bring about change in her, and many in her villag...
