The Place of Crossing

The Place of Crossing Dear Saints, Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! As we journey together in faith, it is important to remember the significance of the places God has chosen for us to cross from one season to another, from one blessing to the next. Just as the Israelites had their "Place of Crossing," so do we have our appointed places where God calls us to step out in faith and trust in His promises. In the Old Testament, we read about the Israelites' journey into the Promised Land. After years of wandering in the wilderness, their moment of crossing came at the Jordan River. In Joshua 3:15-17, it is written: "As soon as the priests who carried the ark reached the Jordan and their feet touched the water's edge, the water from upstream stopped flowing. It piled up in a heap a great distance away... So the people crossed over opposite Jericho. The priests who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord stopped in the middle of the Jorda

Welcome to Your New Month of December 2023

Welcome to the Remarkable Month of December 2024: Embracing Divine Order Dear Beloved Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Welcome to the remarkable month of December 2024, a season filled with anticipation, reflection, and the joy of celebration. As we step into the final month of this year, let us recognize the uniqueness of this December, marked by the assurance that divine order is at work, directing our paths for the coming year. Proverbs 3:5-6 encourages us to trust in the Lord with all our hearts, especially as we navigate the last days of 2024. This December, as we embrace the twelfth month, let our trust in the Lord be strengthened, acknowledging the divine order orchestrating the intricate details of our lives. Romans 8:28 reminds us that in all things, God works for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. Let us celebrate the unique journey each of us has experienced this year, recognizing the divine hand guiding our steps and orchestrating events

Honoring the New Covenant

From Deception to Devotion: The Legacy of King Saul Introduction: The concept of a covenant, a sacred agreement between God and humanity, has deep roots in the Bible. One of the most profound developments in this divine relationship is the establishment of the New Covenant. The New Covenant is not just a continuation of the old but a transformation of it, offering a deeper and more intimate connection with God. In this article, we'll explore the journey from King Saul's misstep to the institution of the New Covenant by our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and the call to honor and participate in this remarkable covenant. 1. King Saul's Covenant and the Consequence (Joshua 9 and 2 Samuel 21): Our story begins in the book of Joshua (Joshua 9), where we encounter an intriguing event. The Gibeonites, a neighboring people, employed a clever ruse to secure their safety by entering into a covenant with the Israelites. Despite the deception, the Israelite leaders, including Joshua,

Turning Life's Disappointments into Divine Appointments

Rivers of Hope My Dearest Brothers and Sisters in Christ, I trust this message finds you well and that the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ is abounding in your lives. Today, I want to reiterate the profound truth that Jesus is our unwavering ROCK, the eternal source of living water that not only quenches our spiritual thirst but rejuvenates our souls, even in the face of negative connotations surrounding water. In our spiritual journey, we may have come across Bible passages where water symbolizes both challenges and blessings within our faith. Just as in the Bible, we've witnessed how water embodies both the trials and triumphs of our spiritual sojourn: 1. Flood Waters (Genesis 7:17-24):    The great flood in Noah's time was a cataclysmic event, bringing destruction and judgment. However, Christ serves as our refuge, akin to the ark, offering salvation, protection, and a shelter from life's fiercest storms. 2. Bitter Waters at Marah (Exodus 15:22-25):    The bitter waters a

Welcome to Your New Month of November 2023!

Welcome to Your New Month of November 2023. Dear Believers, Greetings in the name of our Lord Almighty. As we enter the month of November 2023, I want to share with you a reflection on the significance of the number eleven in the Bible and how it can inspire us in our faith journey. In the Bible, the number eleven is associated with both disorder, chaos, and judgment, as well as a rise to power. The story of Joseph, the eleventh son of Jacob, exemplifies this duality. His life was marked by trials and tribulations, including betrayal by his own brothers, enslavement, and unjust imprisonment. Yet, in the end, Joseph's faith, integrity, and God's providence led him to rise to power as the second-in-command in Egypt. Joseph's journey reminds us that even in times of disorder and chaos, when we face trials and judgment from the world, we must hold onto our faith and trust in the Lord Almighty. Just as Joseph's rise to power was ordained by God, we too may experience moments

The Cross: Our Ark of Salvation

  The Cross as Our Ark: Symbols of Redemption and Deliverance Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, May the grace of our Lord be with you. Today, I want to share a message that highlights the divine plan of salvation, as seen in the stories of Genesis, Exodus, and the sacrifice of Christ on the Cross. In the book of Genesis, we witness the beginning of God's saving work. The story of Noah's ark (Genesis 6:14-18) reveals how God provided an ark to protect Noah, his family, and the creatures from the impending flood. This mirrors the safety and shelter we find in the Cross of Christ. Fast-forward to the time of Pharaoh in the book of Exodus. Pharaoh was chosen by the Osiris god to issue a decree to harm the Israelites, specifically through the scarification of their male babies. Yet, in a stunning turn of events, God's divine plan emerged. Pharaoh's daughter, while performing her morning ritual at the Nile, became the instrument of God's grace (Exodus 2:5-6). Just as P

All Other Voices will Be Silenced

  When God Speaks, All Other Voices Cease Dear Believers in All Nations, I hope this letter finds you well and full of hope in your faith journey. In times of uncertainty and doubt, it's essential for us to take solace in the promises of our Lord, knowing that God's voice will always prevail over all others. The Contest at Mount Carmel: In the pages of the Bible, we find stories that remind us of God's unwavering power and His ability to silence all voices that oppose His will. One such story is the contest at Mount Carmel, where the prophet Elijah confronted the prophets of Baal. In a stunning display of divine authority, God sent down fire from heaven, consuming the sacrifice and the altar, while the false prophets were silenced. Pharisees and Religious Leaders: In the New Testament, we see Jesus engaging in debates with the Pharisees and religious leaders who questioned His authority and teachings. Through His wisdom and the authority of His words, Jesus often left these
