What’s your REASON
Why do we do the things we do? What is your intentions? Is your heart aligned with the Father’s heart? We love, because He first loved us; so much so that He sent The Word, The Word that became flesh and dwelt among us; His only begotten Son came in flesh and blood, to lay…

I heard Him Say… “See, Stop, but Believe.”
After a busy weekend at work, and an awesome time in God’s presence at church last night… I came home, hungry for more time with the Father, and for the first time in a long time He started talking again. Not that I didn’t seek Him, not that I don’t start every day and end…

This is my story
I have a lot of my story spread out over a few blogs and referring to certain events of significance related to the topic I was writing at that point in time… Just a brief introduction to me… I enjoy the journey I am on, and I know there is still a long journey ahead……

Deal or heal… What’s your story?
The “Abishai Brothers” were supposed to meet last week, but 2 scheduled nights couldn’t take place due to unforeseen circumstances… I took the time to finish my previous post the first night, and then the following night, after coming home from work, I didn’t know what to do with myself… I entered into a home…

So, what exactly do you want?
I went for a braai (BBQ) at a friend’s house a few weekends back, it is always a joyful occasion in South Africa; kids playing in the pool after having watermelon dripping all over them… a wood fire crackling in background while the parents play cards or throw darts… and basically just having a good…

Clothed with the Sacrifice
It is sooo special how God work with us and talk to us, preparing our minds gently to drop revelation when the time is right… A while ago I was led to think of a “Place”, deeply thinking of “A place of being.” We sing songs of “God fill this place”, we pray prayers of…

“Lord, show me”
With a silent and shy whisper… “Lord, show me, show me Your way.”God, as gentle as He is, starts pointing out the bruises, the areas we got hurt. He gently touches the wounds… “There, My child, that is where your healing is.” Tears running down the cheeks… “Thank you, Father” And again, we ask “Lord,…

Be Carriers… of His Character
Part 1 of this post was “Carrying God’s presence”; God’s presence is a place of being, not only a place of experience. God demands a permanent residence in our being, for us to be carriers of His presence and not a visitation when we find time to do so. We are in His creation; this…

Be Carriers… of His Presence.
My last few weeks of meditation was mostly about the fear of God… “Choose your fear”; it is a topic that comes up quite often in my devoted time, do we really and deeply understand what this is all about? It’s not a trembling fear, but rather a fear of reverence and awe found in…

Exit towards the Entrance
Earlier this year I had to collect something from a warehouse. What may have appeared as quite a strict access-controlled area didn’t really have any control, except for gates opening by the pressing of buttons. There was a huge access gate at the entrance of the office park in which the warehouse is located… very…

“And just like that…”
I spent a lot of time in John 17 the last month… “When Jesus Prays” … WOW, it is beautiful, it started with a thought of “Jesus, at the right hand of God the Father, interceding for us” (Romans 8:34), and John 17 is one place I know where it is recorded when Jesus prayed…

I CHOOSE LIFE!!!
Godly Conversations; Another late night with my dear friend and brother in Christ, which could go on for another few hours, but rushing against a curfew had it cut short. A while ago God had me busy with “Capacity”, it was still in progress when it was placed in the “Parked” folder as another topic…

Behind closed doors
We serve a God, the ONE and ONLY God, that craves for our attention… He wants an intimate relationship with us, behind closed doors. We said good bye to my Sister-in-Law a while ago… we live more than 1000km apart, and it was not possible for me to attend the funeral in person. Their church…

Manage your Miracle
Some food for thought, not going to say much, you think about these two verses and join the dots… He said to Simon (Peter), Put out into the deep, and lower your nets for a haul. And Simon (Peter) answered, Master, we toiled all night exhaustingly and caught nothing in our nets. But on the…

Don’t go there
I am a numbers guys; it comes naturally and quite handy in the industry I am working in… I can spot a trend and will apply brakes to a downward trend or accelerate to ride the momentum of an upward trend. Both have different characteristics and should be planned for differently. Importantly, you need to…

“Just a little longer… just a minute or so…”
It is winter in South Africa, and we had very cold temperatures the past 2 weeks. I am not a winter person… I generally love the outdoors, and will spend most of my time outside, but saying that, I also don’t like warming mechanisms; I will never have a warm water bottle or an electric…

Park that thought; don’t let it pass…
Godly Conversations lead to Godly Revelations!!! I briefly wrote about this topic a while ago… chatting about God, conversations leading to God’s goodness and greatness.Every single time I meet with this friend I spoke about we have an “AHA” moment, and at the end of the late nights, overflowing by more than just caffeine… it…

Be True to Yourself
God has been busy with me for quite a long time about my TRUE identity in Christ. And I think most of us are on the same journey, a journey we will be on until we meet Jesus face to face. Around a year ago I was praying with a brother in Christ, and God…

What are you waiting for?

Don’t look back
Don’t STOP!!!Only look back when you’ve come too far to run back… You will then not want to run back, looking back will only be a measure of God’s greatness working in you… Salvation #Grace #Jesus #Persist #Persevere #dontstop

Value It
2 sermons I attended the past weekend had a similar “statement” of “Know what you ask for”… the first was on Saturday night… “More of You, Jesus” followed by “Do you understand the process to this request?”And the second was Sunday night… “Use me!!!” followed by “Be sure of what you ask for.” Approximately 2…

Godly conversations lead to Godly Revelations
I met a friend last year August (2020) at a small church I started attending in the middle of the lockdown, most churches were still closed. We had quite a few underground secret church services, hungry people, seeking God’s face. Can you believe we had to attend church in secret…? Some countries probably still do……

Comforted to Comfort
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of sympathy (pity and mercy) and the God [Who is the Source] of every comfort (consolation and encouragement), Who comforts (consoles and encourages) us in every trouble (calamity and affliction), so that we may also be able to comfort (console and encourage)…

Our own completeness is now found in Him
‘For our spiritual wealth is in him, like hidden treasure waiting to be discovered—heaven’s wisdom and endless riches of revelation knowledge. I want you to know this so that no one will come and lead you into error through their persuasive arguments and clever words. In the same way you received Jesus our Lord and…

Glorious Visitations
“To You belongs silence [the submissive wonder of reverence], and [it bursts into] praise in Zion, O God; And to You the vow shall be performed. O You who hear prayer, To You all mankind comes. Wickedness and guilt prevail against me; Yet as for our transgressions, You forgive them [removing them from Your sight].…

🔥Fan the Flame – Day 6🔥
🔥 Removal of False idols 🔥 Something that can creep up on us and captivate our thoughts and lead us astray, idolatry. God is a jealous God, and He wants a relationship with us; an intimate relationship that will give Him the attention that He deserves, He sent His only begotten Son to become the…

🔥Fan the Flame –Day 5🔥 Rebuilding of the Altar
Being altered at the altar… I was looking forward to write about this in day 5… I did a study a while ago about the sacrifices / offerings found in Leviticus chapter 1 to 7… it led to deep searching about obedience, sacrifice and surrender… the blog post is in progress and I can’t wait…
