John 6:35. The disciples asks Jesus, “Lord, always give us this bread.” But they were still thinking of ordinary bread, of what Jesus could give them. Jesus replied, “I am the bread of life. The one who comes to Me will never hunger, and the one who believes in Me will never thirst”. When you eat when you are very hungry and you eat, the meal delights you, even plain water satisfies when you are thirsty. In the same way, God says, Let My Word be your delight. Let Me satisfy y

John 13: 34 - "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another." When Jesus was here on this earth, His own people rejected Him. If He had thought like a human, He could have left , he could have destroyed everything and built another world altogether. But He did not do that. Instead, He loved us. He laid down His life for us. We should have died, but He took our place instead. That is the agape love of God. Love is not a feeling.

Boundaries We all know our identity, having the Holy Spirit in us. But what about our heart? As Christians, we should possess the knowledge of the boundaries, of the good and the bad. If we know the boundaries, we can live fearlessly. Knowing the Truth John 8:31–32 "To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, 'If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.'" Hosea 4:6 "My people are destroyed from lack

Matthew 13:7–8, 22–23 7 Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the plants. 8 Still other seed fell on good soil, where it produced a crop—a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown. 22 The seed falling among the thorns refers to someone who hears the word, but the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth choke the word, making it unfruitful. 23 But the seed falling on good soil refers to someone who hears the word and understands it. Everyone h

John 12:24–26 - 24 "I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat is planted in the soil and dies, it remains alone. But its death will produce many new kernels—a plentiful harvest of new lives." 25 "Those who love their life in this world will lose it. Those who hate their life in this world will keep it for eternity." 26 "Anyone who wants to serve me must follow me, because my servants must be where I am. And the Father will honor anyone who serves me."_ Wheat Why did Jesu

Matthew 6:6 "But when you pray, go into your room, SHUT THE DOOR BEHIND YOU and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you." At first glance, Jesus tells us to shut the door so that our prayers are not performed for the praise of others. However, there is a deeper spiritual meaning behind His instruction. Many of us hear powerful sermons that stir our hearts. We resolve to follow Christ wholeheartedly, yet after some

John 9:1–7 As Jesus passed by, He saw a man blind from birth. Jesus was not wandering aimlessly; He moved with purpose. His gaze was intentional and fixed on the man. In the same way, God sees us intentionally and calls us to see Him. God Passes By with Purpose In the Old Testament, God passed by both Moses and Elijah. After encountering God in the burning bush, Moses realized that nothing in Egypt could compare to the glory of God. His greatest desire became to know and see

This is a serious word. If we hear it and do not receive it, if we do not repent and act on it, then whatever else we hear from any pastor, any sermon, any place, will be of no use. When God speaks, it is a serious thing. In John 5, Jesus speaks to people who searched and examined the Scriptures, thinking that in them they had eternal life. The testimony of John, His works, the Father, and the Scriptures all pointed to Him. Yet Jesus says, "You are unwilling to come to Me to

John 13: 14-16 - Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet. I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. Very truly I tell you, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. Jesus is our Father, Lord, Teacher and Master and we are his child, disciple, student and servant. All these relationships between us and Jesus are true. We need all of them and c

John 13: 13 - "You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord,’ and rightly so, for that is what I am." What is the level of your knowledge? People have different levels of knowledge. For example: An aero plane. A person who has never travelled knows what is an aero plane, but a person who has actually travelled knows more than him. A pilot knows more than just a traveler. But an aeronautical engineer has the highest level of knowledge. Though everyone knows what an aero plane is, the leve

John 13 : 5-11 After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him. He came to Simon Peter, who said to him, “Lord, are you going to wash my feet?” Jesus replied, “You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand.” “No,” said Peter, “you shall never wash my feet.” Jesus answered, “Unless I wash you, you have no part with me.” “Then, Lord,” Simon Peter replied, “not just my

What Is the Fear of the Lord? Revelation 1:17 shows that even the most intimate relationship with Jesus does not diminish His glory. He is Abba, yet His glory is so great that we cannot stand before His throne in our own strength. John, who leaned on Jesus at the Last Supper, fell prostrate before Him in Revelation. Let us not be blind to the greatness of His glory and power, but come trembling before His throne as true worshippers. True worship is standing before His throne,

John 12: 37-38 - Even after Jesus had performed so many signs in their presence, they still would not believe in him. This was to fulfill the word of Isaiah the prophet: “Lord, who has believed our message and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?” John 12: 49-50 - For I did not speak on my own, but the Father who sent me commanded me to say all that I have spoken. know that his command leads to eternal life. So whatever I say is just what the Father has told me to s

What is Identity? We know it as something that defines a person. It may be the person's name, family name, looks, position of status, even his money and possessions. We all have an identity in this world. It makes us feel valued, seen, loved, admired and secure. Yet, is it really our true identity? Does it really makes us secure? What is the identity that gives us complete security? Let us look at the story of Joseph: Genesis - 37:3 Now Israel loved Joseph more than any other

God is Sovereign in Every Season Seasons change. Heat, cold, victory, confusion, pain. All seasons exist within God’s ecosystem. Sometimes we ask: If God promised blessing, why is this season so hard? If He gave, why did He allow it to be taken? Job could have asked the same. Can we comprehend enough of what God has to ask Him why? How can we expect to understand the why’s of eternity when we haven’t decoded even out physical world? We do not always know why. Suffering streng

John 12: 31-33 - Now is the judgment of this world; now the ruler of this world will be cast out. And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all peoples to Myself.” This He said, signifying by what death He would die. Col 2: 15 - Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it. Though it appeared as if Jesus was helpless when hanging on the cross, He actually did a powerful thing. When Jesus said 'It is finis

Welcome to the Father’s Banquet This fasting week is not only about abstaining, but about feasting with Jesus. The Holy Spirit invites us to the Father’s table, because: Refreshing is nowhere else, Strength is nowhere else, Pleasures are found only in His presence The banquet of God is not temporary. It never ends. The bread never ends. The river never runs dry. Earthly celebrations exhaust us, but the heavenly banquet renews us. What Happens in a Feast? Every feast involves:

People carry the orphan spirit in different levels. People who are in families, in society, with friends, people who have plenty, but still feel separated, unwanted, unworthy. Still feel rejected. Elijah received the threatening message from Jezebel. Elijah got terrified. First came fear. Many of us know God is good, but we are dragged around by fear. The devil will try to always isolate you from the people of God. Elijah Elijah was asking God to end his life, having lost co

Mathew 6: 22-33 This is the story when Jesus walked on water and Peter walked on water too. The Old Testament and the New Testament difference The Old Testament is about the physical - blessings were Canaan - land and wealth of the world, God's presence was in the tabernacle, activities in worship were physical, peace on all sides was the promise of God, honour in the world was the reward. It was only a shadow of the spiritual kingdom to come in the future. The New Testament,
