God Desires Fellowship

The perfect environment into
which man was placed is now
shattered by the entrance of sin.
Satan, posing as the subtle serpent
challenges God’s only prohibition
on man’s use of the garden.
Disobedience follows as the first
family eats from the forbidden tree
and is expelled from the garden.
The results of their sin spread as
humankind and the whole creation
fall under the penalty of death.
Cain becomes the first murderer
& the downward spiral continues
from Adam to Noah paving the
way for God’s judgment upon
the wickedness of the world.

Lord, we praise U for your love,
making us in your image,
giving us freewill to obey you,
providing our every need and
wanting close fellowship with us.
Lord, thank you for not only
redeeming us from the penalty
of sin but also empowering us
from the effects of sin. Lord,
we purpose to Draw Near to You;
we purpose to Hear Your Voice &
we purpose to Walk with You. Amen

Almighty God Cares for Mankind

The first two chapters of the
Bible begin at “the beginning”.
Chap 1 gives a concise overview
of the progress of creation,
climaxing in the creation of man.
Chap 2 takes a focussed look at
day six, where the details emerge
of how God’s image-bearers were
created; man from the dust of the
ground and woman from his rib.

Lord, we praise and thank you
that You are not only awesome
in your creation of the universe &
the earth but also show that U love
and deeply care for our welfare.
Lord, we purpose to be grateful &
we will adopt a Thankful spirit;
we will Rest and Worship You; &
we will Remain United in marriage.
In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.

poetry, prophets, gospel & letters.
To enable you better appreciate
the flow the Bible especially OT,
exposition will be chronological.

OT2C: Solomon & Wisdom Poetry

OT3B: 2 Kings 1-17 & Prophets

Thank God for Purpose In Life

When a person will not obey God
willingly, God will often bring to
bear circumstances that force
him to obey God unwillingly.
Such is the case with reluctant
Pharaoh of Egypt. God sends
a series of national calamities
to impress upon Pharaoh the
importance of obedience.

Lord, thank U for Purpose in Life:
Then the Lord said to Moses:
Stand before Pharaoh and say
to him: Thus says the Lord God
of the Hebrews: Let My people
go that they may (worship) Me…
Indeed for this Purpose I have
raised you up, that I may show
My power in you, and that
My name may be declared in
all the earth (Ex 9:13-16) Amen.

Thank God for Gift of Life

The first two chapters of the
Bible begin at “the beginning”.
Chapter 1 gives a concise overview
of the progress of creation,
climaxing in the creation of man.
Chapter 2 takes a zoom-lens look
at day six. There the details emerge
of how God’s image-bearers were
created – man from the dust of
the ground & woman from his rib.

Lord, thank You for Creating Us:
Then God said: Let Us Make man
in Our Image, according to Our
likeness; let them have dominion
over all the earth (Gen 1:26).
Then God saw everything
that He had made, and indeed
it was Very Good (Gen 1:31).
And the Lord God formed man
of the dust of the ground and
breathed into his nostrils the
breadth of life; and man became
a Living Being (Gen 2:7). Amen.

Thanking God for It’s Right (Jan 1)

Friends, Happy New Year !!
We start the new year by doing
the Right Thing, by Thanking God.
Often our prayers can degenerate
into list of needs presented to God.
Whilst I believe God loves to hear
about our needs, I also believe
that He loves for us to pray back
His Promises; pray commitment
and surrender to Him; as well as
to pray Praise and Thanksgiving!!

We have been utilising Scripture
to form prayers so that we learn
to think as God thinks; and pray
in a way that is pleasing to Him.
With Scripture as our guide, we’ll
also have balance in our prayers.
Having prayed Thro the Scripture
on Knowing Him, Praising Him,
claiming His Promises and Seeking
His Truths,we start 2019 with series
on Thanking God thro the Scripture.
Lord, we purpose to Thank You God
for it is the only Right thing to do:
for Gratitude sake, for it’s Your Will
and for we Belong to You. Amen.
