In the contemporary world where people are desperately searching for crowds that can crown them kings, God is reminding us that true leadership requires swimming against the tide of populism and instead focusing on God’s will.

Are you feeling discouraged because you don’t seem to see fruit from your ministry? Don’t lose heart because your labour is not in vain. At the right time, there will be a great harvest.

Apart from teaching, preaching is core to our mission on earth, and contrary to what many of today’s preachers give out, the Bible clearly shows us the three things that we should focus our preaching on.

How relevant is, or rather, what is your attitude to the teaching ministry in the Church as an individual?

The action of James and John to immediately leave their business and their father to follow Jesus teaches us that when it comes to the things of God, the right approach to take is to do it ‘immediately.’

Leaving a familiar environment to settle in new surroundings can be daunting but it comes with many benefits and potentially life-changing opportunities for growth and service.

Apart from delivering help from God, angels also minister for us by waging spiritual battle, fighting the forces of spiritual darkness who try to sabotage God’s plans.

By focusing your focus on what the Word of God says about you, you break free from the pressure to validate your self-worth.

If our Lord Jesus, the Son of God who came from the Father, was led by the Spirit of God, much more do we need to be led by the Holy Spirit today.

Jesus’ title as the ‘Son of God’ holds such profound significance and is so central to Christianity that anyone who denies it cannot be a child of God himself.
