Thy Word

Unchangeable

Imagine what the world would be like if everyone remained loyal, dependable, faithful and trustworthy for life. That God remains true and never changes should be the bedrock of our confidence in His faithfulness.

Thy Word

Storms

Like the great ships must endure stormy seas to prove their worth and like the great eagle thrives in storms if it is to mount to greater heights, God expects us not to shun His storms but rather to harness them for our own advantage and benefit.

Thy Word

Restoration

Prayers and promises of restoration are common themes in the Bible. It is God’s perfect will that our relationship with Him is based on perpetual restoration both as individuals and as His Church.

Wiles

In military science, the first thing that the seasoned general must master in order to win a war is the enemy’s weapons and his strategy. When we understand our spiritual enemy’s weapons, our perspectives [and practices] in ‘spiritual warfare’ will change dramatically

Thy Word

Wisdom

In our relentless quest for wisdom, we should not be oblivious of the fact that there are important differences between the “wisdom that is from above” (theosophia) – which is infinite – and the wisdom that is ‘anthropinos’ (human), which has serious limitations.

Thy Word

Flee

Contrary to what many believers think, fleeing is not a sign of weakness or vulnerability. There should be no shame in fleeing and indeed, the Bible repeatedly admonishes the believer to “flee” from certain things.
