Hi everyone,

Just a quick blog, over the last 40 days Judith and I have passed through a trial with our daughter being very unwell. Gail in total spent 30 days in hospital, the first of which was very poor. She was moved, thankfully to vastly superior hospital. My daughter had fluid on her spine and in the end needed two operations. We thank the Lord for wonderful surgeons and the operations were a complete success. 

I want to encourage you today if you passing through a trial you are being enlarged in the Lord (Psalm 4:1 & Psalm 18:19).

We have proved on the last 30 days how that if you praise the Lord in the trial you grow a lot in the Lord.

So, stay focused on the Lord, praise Him in the trials and the Lord will bring you into a large place.

Praise you grow, Complain you remain!

Today I was reminded how important it is know we are now living as new covenant believers. It is essential that we focus on the truth that we are no longer under the law of sin and death but live in the law of spirit of life in Christ Jesus.

Why is this needful in our walk ? If we think we are in Moses' law then we will be doing works to prove we are accepted by the Lord. The law given by Moses was about works and doing what was right to recieve blesings. Today we walk in the finished work of Christ on the cross where he defeated the devil and brought us into the new convenat walk leaning on Him and reigning in life because of His victory.

So we overcome by what Jesus has done and He shares with us the victory. 

Today our walk in God is lead by the Spirit within Romans 8:14.

So today, Gods law in our hearts (Hebrews 10:16) and the heart relationship with the Lord. So we walk an overcoming life from our relationship from the heart with Jesus.

Hi Everyone,

Just here thinking how do we grow in the Lord? Well, there are many answers to this question, I am going share a few thoughts on this. I have discovered that when we go through hard times, we are enlarged in the Lord (Psalm 4:1 and Psalm 18:19). We must keep our heart pure during these times, as complaining we remain static. So during trials, we must learn to praise The Lord and we WILL grow. I would like share another thought, I have learnt the more we focus on Jesus the more we grow (1 Corinthians 3:18), as we seek the Lord, allow His love to help us change and grow in Him.

The Lord wants us to spend time with Him, (Isaiah 40:31) as we do so, expect The Lord to answer. Should change be required, He will show us in a loving way where this is needed.

Hi Everyone,

It has been a long time since I have done a blog, this is due to the growth of the ministry.

So I am now taken time to right a short blog.

I find the book off Romans a great help to me in this walk of grace. So many of the chapters make it clear we are not under law but under grace. Romans 8:2 is clear on that, also Romans 5:17-19 mentions the gift of righteousness. I would just like to share what I have been looking at in Romans 6:13-14. It is important what we yield too, as verse 13 says we must 'yield ourselves to God not to sin and know that we are righteous in Christ Jesus'. It is also repeated in verse 16. So to overcome in our Christian life we must yield to the life of Jesus within and we will overcome.
