the word for today 27/03/12

"And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their master's table." --Matthew 15:27
This woman gained comfort in her misery by thinking GREAT THOUGHTS OF CHRIST. The Master had talked about the children's bread: "Now," argued she, "since Thou art the Master of the table of grace, I know that Thou art a generous housekeeper, and there is sure to be abundance of bread on Thy table; there will be such an abundance for the children that there will be crumbs to throw on the floor for the dogs, and the children will fare none the worse because the dogs are fed." She thought Him one who kept so good a table that all that she needed would only be a crumb in comparison; yet remember, what she wanted was to have the devil cast out of her daughter. It was a very great thing to her, but she had such a high esteem of Christ, that she said, "It is nothing to Him, it is but a crumb for Christ to give." This is the royal road to comfort. Great thoughts of your sin alone will drive you to despair; but great thoughts of Christ will pilot you into the haven of peace. "My sins are many, but oh! it is nothing to Jesus to take them all away. The weight of my guilt presses me down as a giant's foot would crush a worm, but it is no more than a grain of dust to Him, because He has already borne its curse in His own body on the tree. It will be but a small thing for Him to give me full remission, although it will be an infinite blessing for me to receive it." The woman opens her soul's mouth very wide, expecting great things of Jesus, and He fills it with His love. Dear reader, do the same. She confessed what Christ laid at her door, but she laid fast hold upon Him, and drew arguments even out of His hard words; she believed great things of Him, and she thus overcame Him. SHE WON THE VICTORY BY BELIEVING IN HIM. Her case is an instance of prevailing faith; and if we would conquer like her, we must imitate her tactics.

covenant university choir concert

lord my prayer today is that the 2012 choir concert will answer to it's name "Experiencing God's Glory". people will experience your glory in even greater dimensions than when Solomon's temple was to be dedicated, they will be healed and every burden of the enemy will be taken from off them.
Holy Spirit please blow your trumpet and call people from far and wide to assemble at the University chapel on the 6th of May to come and receive their freedom and proclaim that you are lord, not only students of the University

Not yet time to give up

No matter how hard you think your Christianity has made life for you, know that life is harder without Christ. Don't mind that unbelievers try to smile and make their lives look more interesting than anything, you never know what really happened when you look at a picture except if you where there. No matter how reliable your inside source may be, there are elements he or she may have left out from his/her story, so beware.

so in case you have decided to take the risk outside Gods protection (which is never the case) or worse, commit suicide, i want you to see it this way. what if you kill yourself today and find out that the next day was to be your breakthrough, you'd feel like committing suicide all over, so just don't go there.

Also, whatever you think you're going through that is too hard for you to take, someone else is going through worse situations than yours.

There is no problem that the word cannot solve.
