Do you know you could have Jesus in your life and yet experience hardships and setbacks? You could have Jesus in your home and yet experience disaster!

It was a big scene on Pentecost day! As I paused invoking the Holy Spirit silently at the pulpit, someone immediately spoke in tongues from the congregation then a great sound like someone just fell among the pews was heard.

When we encounter roadblocks or difficulties in our pursuits in life, the solutions our minds habitually develop are often different from what God would […]
To meet the challenges of a rapidly changing world, and the challenges of living in a world full of strife and competition we need to gather momentum, forge ahead and never give up.

Getting closer to God is not an easy task, but it is highly rewarding. It involves certain deliberate and consistent actions. While some freely see the need to get closer to God, others don’t until faced with adversity.

Many persons today who are hurting, dying, depressed and suffering inwardly use ‘different stones’ and sometimes, ‘colourful stones’ to seal their caves and hide away their hurts, sufferings and sorrows from the public. A woman once called me for a counselling session asking for prayer for her 7-year old son who is having concentration problems. […]
