GOD IS

Quote of the day

“There are times when solitude is better than society, and silence is wiser than speech. We should be better Christians if we were more alone, waiting upon God, and gathering through meditation on His Word spiritual strength for labour in his service. We ought to muse upon the things of God, because we thus get the real nutriment out of them. . . . Why is it that some Christians, although they hear many sermons, make but slow advances in the divine life? Because they neglect their closets, and do not thoughtfully meditate on God's Word. They love the wheat, but they do not grind it; they would have the corn, but they will not go forth into the fields to gather it; the fruit hangs upon the tree, but they will not pluck it; the water flows at their feet, but they will not stoop to drink it. From such folly deliver us, O Lord. . . .” By Charles H. Spurgeon

Text for the day: For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. 2 Corinthians 4:6

Our Theme for the day: GOD IS

Our Devotional

"Throughout history, it has been the inaction of those who could have acted; the indifference of those who should have known better; the silence of the voice of justice when it mattered most; that has made it possible for evil to triumph.

A well informed public opinion is essential to the growth of political and social awareness. Only he who is informed can comment intelligently on his nation's development and only by such comments can errors be corrected and progress stimulated.” By Emperor Haile Selassie

God can only be known by means of a supernatural revelation of Himself Apart from the Scriptures, even a theoretical acquaintance with Him is impossible. It still holds true that 'the world by wisdom knew not God' (I Cor. 1:21). Where the Scriptures are ignored, God is "the unknown God' (Acts 17:23). The one who has been favored with this supernatural experience of the presence of God, has learned that only 'in thy light shall we see light' (Ps. 36:9).

Lastly, always remember when you are put to the test, God is your protection and light in darkness. Yes, He longs to be your joy in times of sorrow, even today and tomorrow.

God is the joy and the strength of your life; He moves all pain, misery, and strife.
He promised to keep you, never to leave you, He's never ever come short of His word.

Always remember to fast and pray, stay in His narrow way. Keep your life clean through Christ everyday; Never lose hope to go with Him when He comes back, you have come too far and I'll never turn back.
God is (5 xs).
God is He said you’re all in all.
