MAY 27th 2026 - GOD IS GOOD TO US!!

Rejecting Jesus is rejecting God - (1 John 2:23)

According to Jesus, everything He said was not His own but from God who sent Him. (John 14:24, John 12:49)

The Law of Moses, the Prophets and the psalms all testify concerning Jesus Christ. (Luke 24:44, Deuteronomy 18:15 (fulfilled by Jesus in Acts 3:22-23)

The writers of the New Testament inspired by the Holy Spirit confirm that God speaks to us through His Son Jesus today. (Hebrews 1:1)

We Must listen to Jesus if we want to be pleasing to God. When He rose from the dead, He told the apostles to "Go into all the World and preach the gospel to every creature. He who believes and is baptised shall be saved, but He who does not believe will be condemned." (Mark 16:15-16)

Can we truly say we are saved if we are not baptized according to the way Jesus taught ? Please read (Mark 16:15-16 and Acts 2:37-38) and chose to obey Jesus today and you will be saved.

Do not delay your obedience to Jesus....Eternity is too long to take chances especially when eternal life is offered to all.

Blessings as we all consider obedience to Jesus and His teaching which is obedience to God Himself leading to eternal life in Heaven...Be wise!

God Delegated All Authority to Jesus - (Matthew 28:18-20)
When Jesus walked on the face of the earth, the scriptures are clear that He spoke and did things that no man ever said or did.

When the sea got violent and aggresive, "He rebuked the winds and the sea and there was great calm." (Matthew 8:25-27)

When the people heard him speak and teach, they said that "He taught with great Authority and not as the scribes." (Matthew 7:28-29).

Even the officers sent to arrest Him confessed that "No man ever spoke like Jesus" (John 7:45)

Demons acknowledged that He was the Son of God and that He had power to torment them. (Mark 5:1-11)

He healed all sicknesses and even raised the dead. (Matthew 4:23-24, John 11:43-44)

He was also raised from the dead and thus He ultimately demonstrated His power and authority over all nature, and even death itself. (1 Cor 15:1-4, Mark 16:6, Romans 1:4)

He did many other things that are written and others not written (John 20:30-31) just to get us to consider and follow Him obediently for eternal life in Heaven.

He is coming again one day to take those who obey Him to their eternal Home....(Hebrews 5:8-9, Titus 1:2, 1 Thesalonians 4:13-18)
If He came tonight, Would he take you with Him.....If not, what will we have lived for ?

Come to Jesus and do not delay, He is calling through His gospel message of love to us. (Mark 16:15-16, Romans 5:6-8) He is able to save us eternally for He was given all authority in Heaven and on earth and thus He is the only way to God the Father. (John 14:6)

Make a decision about Jesus today, "What are you waiting for, arise and be baptised for the forgiveness of your sins.' (Acts 22:16)

Please reach out if you would like to deliberate on these things.....Jesus is man's only hope!!

Blessings as we ponder on these things.

MONDAY, MAY 25th 2026 - GOD IS GOOD TO US!

God Has total Authority over all - (Genesis 1:1, 1:27, Gen 2:7)

Authority is the legitimate power or right to give orders, make descisions and enforce obedience.

As the creator of everything including Heaven and Earth and mankind, God Has absolute power and Authority to rule over all and to hold all accountable.

The only way our lives can make sense is when we seek the will of Him who made us all and do it everyday. That is our whole duty and purpose here on earth. "Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter, Fear God and keep His commandments. For this is man’s all. For God will bring every work into judgment,Including every secret thing, Whether good or evil." (Eccleciastes 12:13-14)
May God Help and bless us to understand His absolute power and might so we can totally surrender to Him.

Blessings to all!

TUESDAY MAY 19th 2026 - GOD IS GOOD TO US!!

"Instead you ought to say, If the Lord wills" (James 4:15)

When God speaks through His word, you realise just how true God's word is. In the context of (James 4:13-17), we are taught to always acknowledge the sovereign will of God in all things and the fact that we are not in control of tomorrow.

"Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a profit”; whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a v***r that appears for a little time and then vanishes away. Instead you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that.”But now you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil. Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin. (James 4:13-17)

Many times we speak arrogantly and proudly about tomorrow but one thing we wilfully (or should I just say foolishly) forget is that our lives are compared to v***r. "For what is your life? It is even v***r that appears for a little time and then vanishes away. Instead we ought to say, If the Lord wills." (James 4:15). Even though it is good to plan for tomorrow, We do not know what will happen tomorrow no matter how well we plan. It is in the hands of the Lord!

To the Kenyans chanting "one term" or "two term" after Aug 2027 general elections, just remember that we could be long gone and forgotten by then or even Jesus could have come back by then. Let us learn to live one day at a time trusting God each day and doing all that we kow how to do by the grace of God.

May God help us to acknowledge His sovereign will in all things and the brevity of our own lives and may we learn to say " If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this and that" (James 4:15)

If you are not a Child of God/a Christian....You can become one by HEARING the GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST and BELIEVING it, (Mark 16:15-16), REPENTING of past sins (Acts 2:38), CONFESSING that JESUS is THE SON OF THE LIVING GOD (Acts 8:37) and being BAPTISED/IMMERSED/BURIED in water for the forgivness of sins. (Acts 2:38, Acts 22:16, Romans 6:3-6, Colossians 2:12)

Blessings as we ponder on the living word of God, the word of Life!

WEDNESDAY, MAY 13TH 2026 - A NEW CREATION!
AS CHRISTIANS, WE ARE A NEW CREATION - (2 CORINTHIANS 5:17)
The Bible teaches that when God made man and put Him in the garden of Eden, man sinned against God and thus the good relationship that was there between God and man was ruined. Please see (Gen 2:15-17, Gen 3:23-24)
As a result, sin came to the World and all men now sin and that sin brings death to all because all sin. (Romans 5:12) Man in his sinful state is separated from God and dead in His sins and trespasses. (Isaiah 59:1-2, Ephesians 2:1)
God sent Jesus to die for our sins because of His love for us (Romans 5:6-8) and Jesus lived and died for our sins, was buried and rose from the dead on the third day (Mark 16:6)
When we are taught the gospel of Jesus, and believe and obey it in baptism for the forgiveness of sins (Acts 2:38), The Bible says that we become a new Creation in Christ. The old man of sin dies and we are born again.
It is baptism that puts us into Christ (Galatians 3:26-27) when we are buried with Him into His death (Romans 6:4) and this is why Paul elsewhere says, "If anyone is in Christ, He is a new creation." (2 Cor 5:17)
It is logical to conclude that if anyone is not in Christ (and that through baptism into His death Romans 6:4), he is still the Old man of sin and is not born again.
Are you a new creation in Christ ? Have you ever been baptised for the forgiveness of your sins? If not what are you waiting for...Consider that Jesus came to die for your sins so that He could make you a new person in Him....Come to Jesus my friend...Believe in Him, Repent of your sins, Confess that you believe in Him as the Son of God and BE BAPTIZED for forgiveness of sins nd He will make you a new creation.
Being saved/born again is not an upgrade of the Old sinful self, It is being made anew. If anyone is in Christ, He is a new creation.
Blessings as we ponder on these things...

TUESDAY, MAY 12th 2026 - GOD IS GOOD!!

CHILDREN OF GOD IS WHO WE ARE - (1 JOHN 3:1)

We do not preach the gospel to "gain a following or become popular," No, we preach because that is what Children of God are expected by the Father to do so that many others can become Children of God and have the same hope of eternal life that we have after this life. (Titus 1:2)

"Behold what manner of love the father Has bestowed on us, that we should be called Children of God! Therefore the World does not know us, because it did not know Him." (1 John 3:1)

"and if Children, then heirs - heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, If indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together." (Romans 8:17)

There is no greater blessing in this life than knowing God as our Father and knowing that He also knows us as His Children and that He is always with us here and we shall be with Him in Heaven as His Children forever.

Are you a child of God.....? If you're not, please consider that God wants to save you and make you His Child so that you will not perish after this life. (John 3:16, 1 Tim 2:4, 2 Peter 3:9-10)

Blessings as we ponder on these things...

TUESDAY, MAY 5th 2026 - GOD IS GOOD TO US!

"Christians are God's Masterpieces" - That is our identity!

"For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God, prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. (Ephesians 2:10)
"Workmanship" comes from the Greek word (POIEMA) meaning, "that which has been made, a work, of the works of God as creator."
Christians are the workmanship/Handiwork/Masterpiece of God, perfected by following the instructions in His word, created to perform the good works He commands. The Christian joyfully follows these commands as does a loving son to his benevolent father.

Christians are a new creation "in Christ" (2 Cor 5:17) and that by God's grace through Faith (Ephesians 2:8-9) and not by our works but for good works which God purposed for us before time began.
If a Christian is not living a life of good works, they should have no confidence in their eternal salvation by God's grace.

If One is not a Christian by being in Christ through Faith by Grace, they should really consider becoming a new creation by Faith in Christ through Faith and obedience to Christ. (Mark 16:15-16, Acts 2:37-38, Acts 22:16, Romans 6:4, Hebrews 5:8-9)
Baptism through immersion for forgiveness of sins gets us into Christ and that is how we become God's handiwork, A new creation in Christ created by God for good works. (Ephesians 2:10)

Blessings!

January 24th 2025 - GOD IS GOOD TO US!!!

Come Let us reason together. (Isaiah 1:18)

"Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the jews. Then Paul, as his custom was, went in to them and for three sabbaths reasoned with them from the scriptures, explaining and demonstrating that Christ had to suffer and rise again from the dead, and saying, "This Jesus whom I preach is the Christ." (Acts 17:2-3)

Don't be doubting anything the Bible says about God, His Son, Salvation and His Church, Just come and let us reason together from the scriptures and even from logic and see whether Christ is the Son of God indeed for these things are Important to all of us.

If Christ is the Son of God (and He is) then there is an urgency in coming to Him obediently for eternal life and salvation Heb 5:8-9. If He is not the Son of God, then He did not even rise from the dead, our preaching is futile and even there is no need to have Church buildings or Bibles anywhere for it would all be a big lie and there would be no hope after this life. 1 Cor 15:12-19. What a serious conversation we all need to have!!

There is only one way to find out what really the truth is about Jesus....Like Paul did with the Jews, Come let us reason together while we still have a chance. Don't just doubt and do nothing about it. Prove all things, the Bible says. (1 Thesalonians 5:21)

Blessings to all!!!

We Must Obey Jesus to be Saved. Heb 5:8-9

5 minute Read.

For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
(Romans 10:10 NKJV)

Once we believe in Jesus and give ourselves to His lordship, it then becomes our heart's desire to follow the directions of Jesus through His word and not the religious traditions/ instructions established by men. (Col 2:20-22)

One cannot claim to be a lover and follower of Jesus and at the same time keep man made religious traditions. (Mark 7:1-9)

Man Has NEVER been able to direct his own steps. (Jer 10:23) Prov 14:12

We must therefore humbly and wholeheartedly seek the directions of Jesus through His word James 1:21-22 without going beyond the doctrine of Christ. 2 John 9-11

He says to us that If we love Him, We shall keep His commandments. (John 14:15)

He asks us why we call Him Lord Lord and keep NOT his commandments. (Luke 6:46)

It is such words from the LORD Himself that compel us to teach men and encourage all to know that Jesus said that If we want to be saved...we must hear the gospel, Believe it, Repent of our Sins, Confess Christ and Be Baptised for the remission of our Sins. Acts 2:37-38, Acts 22:16.

And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.
(Mark 16:15‭-‬17 NKJV)

Do Not be deceived by anyone....Prayers are good and we Must be praying but they cannot save a man from sins. A man praying for you cannot save you, Believing in Jesus alone without doing what He says cannot save anyone.

We must be taught the truth of His gospel 1 Cor 15:1-4, Believe it from the heart John 8:24, Romans 10:10, Repent of our Sins Luke 13:3, Acts 2:38, Confess Christ Acts 8:37 and then and only then are we ready for death and burial with Christ through Baptism in water for the remission of Sins. Romans 6:3-6, Acts 22:16, Acts 8:38 which brings us to a state of having our sins forgiven/washed away Acts 22:16 after which the Lord adds us to His one Church, His one body Eph 4:4, Acts 2:47 where we now continue to be taught Matthew 28:18-20 and to grow in Christ 2 Peter 3:18.

All who have obeyed Christ in this way and continue to be Faithful to the coming of Christ 1 Thes 4:16, 2 Peter 3:9-10 or till death Rev 2:10 will receive the crown of life along with all those who have gone before us including great men like apostle Paul. (2 Tim 4:6-8)

Heaven is real and God wants us all to seek and pursue eternal life with him there. 1 Tim 2:4, John 3:16, Titus 1:2

Don't live and die without making up your mind about your after life...Give it a serious thought and be praying about it as well as you seek the truth!!

Love you all with God's love and my prayer for us all is that we may all be saved Romans 10:1 and spend eternity in Heaven with God after this life.....Ameeeeen 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

I can talk about Jesus all day every day for just like Paul....I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ for it is the power of God unto salvation to all who believe. Romans 1:16

Blessings to all 🙏🏿

If more people were properly taught and understood that the Man who was crucified on that cross outside Jerusalem about two thousand years ago was not just a man named Jesus but God in the flesh, Then more people would submissively and obediently become Christians based on true conviction and not just out of inherited religion as we commonly see today. Consequently, We would also see true Christianity being practised in view of the many who profess the Faith.
The Holy scriptures teach that in the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God and the Word was God. (John 1:1-3) He was in the beginning with God. (John 1:2)
It is therefore necessary to understand that Mary, who was with Child by the Holy Spirit Isaiah 7:14 Matthew 1:18-21 was pregnant with the incarnate Word of God in her womb.
From eternal existence as God, the Word was made flesh John 1:14 through Mary and all the way to the Cross to die for the sins of mankind was God's grace to save Mankind being revaled to the World.
If we preach the gospel of the cross without emphasizing that the One who hung on that tree was God in the flesh, What we end up having is people who don't truly appreciate what God Has in His unsearchable wisdom done for the Fallen Human family and consequently groups of religious people who are not in a covenant relationship with God through Obedience to the gospel that brought us salvation. He did not just die, He died for our sins. (1 Cor 15:3) and was raised again on the third day (1 Cor 15:4)and Glory Hallelujah, We know that when He comes for those who believe and have been united with Him in Baptism (Rom 6:3-6), We shall be resurrected just like He was 1 Cor 15:12-19 and we shall therefore be like He is (1 John 3:2)and dwell with Him in Heaven forever. (1 Thesalonians 4:17-18)
Even though we may not have all the facts of the resurrection and How we shall be like in Heaven, The thought of what God did for mankind should throw us on our knees with eternal gratitude for the Love of God that moved Him with such great compassion to do such a deed for sinful us. Paul exclaims in amazement the unfathomable ways of God when he tells us "Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God.How unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out."(Romans 11:33)
It was indeed God in the flesh who hung on that cross and not just a jewish man and all for the love of sinful Man.
I cannot comprehend the Love of God for Mankind but i deeply appreciate How Much He loves you and Me and sent His Son to die for our sins to save us from eternal death.
These things are true and comforting to the truth seeking individual!
May God help as we live this new blessed life

"But when they believed Phillip as he preached the things concerning the Kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, both men and women were Baptised."(Acts 8:12)

God is still in the saving business for those who hear and obey His Son Jesus Christ. (Heb 1:1-3)(Heb 5:8-9)
For he said "Go into all the World and preach the gospel to every creature. He who believs and is Baptized will be saved: but he who believes not will be condemned." (Mark 16:15-16)

God be praised, We have a new sister in Christ. Evelyn got Baptised on 02/06/2021 after hearing and believing the word of salvation as taught in the scriptures.

We rejoice that she got Baptised and we give God all the glory......
