Our Godly Value
We’ve said before…. God does not consider one person better than another. He loves each precious soul equally. Because He loves equally, the price for salvation is one and the same for all – Jesus! The price for our Salvation has already been paid – and amazingly –...

Overboard with God
I heard an interesting story the other day:There was a man who had fallen overboard a ship in the deep seas. As he held on to a piece of wood that floated by, he was praying and asking the Lord for help. Soon a ship came by an offered him assistance but the man...
Prayerfully for Others
The Apostle Paul tells us that, as believers - born of water and the spirit, we are citizens of the Kingdom of Heaven (Phil.3:20). Normally a citizen of a certain country will display characteristics of the country from which they come. For instance, as South...
Learning The Equation for Peace
The Apostle Paul gives us a profound truth in Philippians 4:6–7. It is almost like a spiritual equation, simple yet powerful: Not being anxious + asking God for our needs + thanking Him for what we have = living “In Christ.” This is not just a formula for peace—it is...
What it means to be ‘In Christ’ – Identity, Purpose, and Hope
The bible makes so many references to being ‘In Christ’. Many times, being ‘In Christ’ carries a promise from God. The position of 'In Christ' is essential to our walk with the Lord. It is a deep, transformative union with Jesus Christ, meaning that when someone...
Born for Now – Part Two
“…If you don't speak up now, we will somehow get help, but you and your family will be killed. It could be that you were made queen for a time like this!”[1] We started with the story of Queen Esther last month. Today, I will refresh us all on the importance of her...
Born for Now – Part One

Stop Worrying – Part Two
We left off Part One with this statement: The rubber on the road is this: Jesus said His solution was: “…And he said that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.”[1] “…But more than anything else, put God's work first and do what he...
Stop Worrying Part One
Matthew 6: 25-35 “I tell you not to worry about your life. Don't worry about having something to eat, drink, or wear. Isn't life more than food or clothing? Look at the birds in the sky! They don't plant or harvest. They don't even store grain in barns. Yet your...
Mission Malawi – Chapter 20
26.02.96The days are flying by and as usual in our walk there are ‘ups and downs’. I know that although it’s like that, I shouldn’t be ‘feeling’ as if I’m on an emotional roller coaster. If I was truly ‘in Christ’, my emotions about the ‘self’ would have died and I...
Mission Malawi – Chapter 21
15.03.96 Well, this isthe day that the Lord has made – we will rejoice and be glad in it!! Just a few minutes to share again before the work of the day begins and thoughts are consumed and lost forever. I finally had a reply from the elders of one of the large...
Mission Malawi – Chapter 22

Mission Malawi – Chapter 23
September 1996We now find ourselves preparing to go back to Johannesburg to see what the Lord will have for us. In the natural, we have nothing to go back to. No place to live, no work and once we arrive back in Johannesburg, we will have no money. Well, one thing we...
