God Has a Time For This (Psalm 27:4)

1)       Spare time? As a retire man like everybody else I have a lot of ‘spare’ time and yet all that time should be and does belong to God.   Spare time is a name we give generally to the time that we want to waste away. Our attitude must be that all that time is the Lord’s.   Since we gave our lives to him. 2)       God willing After I read an inspirational devotional in Bear Grylls’s book entitled “Soul Fuel” about “God Willing” I must agree with him that my decisions and plans should only be taken with God in mind as he is willing or not to fulfill them.   (If you remember Bear Grylls as the one in the TV series, “Running Wild with Bear Grylls” on Global TV.) Our (God’s and my) plans should not be determined by my shortcomings but by his ability to fulfill them. 3)       First things first If at the very beginning, we put him first we will be securing the best results for our lives and not have to put up with mediocrity.   This is harder for me than anyone as I r

Why Is Jesus Alive Today?

A Time like No Other

I do not usually venture in prophetic matters; I just observe the world around me and draw my conclusions. 1)       Evidence We see all around us evidence of the world destroying itself, but everything seems alright, they say.   We see robots replacing humans everywhere and yet we say nothing and see nothing.   There is a great chance that that plane you flying on will be piloted by a robot.   Not sure of what I am talking about…There is a company in the States, building human robots to order.   The company is called Cyberlife.   You can already order a woman who can do housework or order a doctor or anything you wish. 2)       This is not a time to lose hope, it is a time to thrive and obey God. To wait and endure The time that the prophet Daniel talked about is closely coming upon us.   I am reading the end of the book in chapter 12 where Daniel was told the words but not understanding them in verse 8 “I heard but I did not understand.   Then I said, “O my lord, what shall
