He Chooses Mercy, We Witness Mystery
Sovereignty means that God possesses absolute power and authority to do whatever He wills. Providence is the exercise of that sovereignty with perfect wisdom, love, and purpose. God does not simply control everything; He orders everything toward His perfect will. Providence is His sovereignty in action. Always purposeful, redemptive, and unfailing. Job declared, “I know…

Dust to Dunamis
In God’s economy, there are no coincidences. The Ascension took place on the Mount of Olives, the very ground where Christ will one day set His feet again, as Zechariah 14:4 promises. Today, the Dome of the Ascension sits as a marker. The disciples never set out to make it a shrine or tourist site,…

Wrath and Restoration
Ephesians 4:26 commands, “Be angry and do not sin.” The emotion itself is not sin; it can reflect a moral awareness of evil or injustice. Yet James 1:20 warns, “The anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God.” Human anger, when untethered from humility, fails miserably. It seeks revenge rather than redemption. Jesus…

Greatest Scientist
God of science 🎼🎶 2 Corinthians 4:18—”So we do not focus on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.” Everything in this world operates within certain limits. Your sneakers wear out. Your car needs repairs.

Present with Christ: In the arms of eternity
When Job went through loss, he asked God for an explanation. But God never gave him an answer. Instead, God gave Job a revelation of Himself. And that was enough. Before we try to solve everything with logic or search endlessly for explanations, the best place to begin is simply getting to know God’s character…

DID GOD REALLY SAY? (Semantic Mimicry)
The words we use shape how we think, what we value, and then what we worship. When those words change in meaning, the morals of a culture drift with them.This process of what might be called semantic mimicry is both strategic and spiritual. Reusing words with moral or sacred weight lowers the barrier for acceptance.…

I Thank The Lord
If I am sick or if I am well, thanks be to God, my soul will tell. If I am strong or if I am weak, thanks be to God in all I speak. When dogs bark and cars chase, when people die, when life feels like a race When dogs bark loud and the…

The whole duty of man
It doesn’t take a lifetime of study, a degree, or a thousand books. Sometimes, just one moment, one phrase, one verse, one realization is enough to change everything. Paul was not uneducated or uninformed. In fact, he was the opposite. He was a scholar, a Pharisee, trained under Gamaliel (Acts 22:3), zealous for the Law,…

Love over Legacy
I recently visited the Carolina Coast, and it made me reflect on how some men leave legacies just because they stayed somewhere. Blackbeard docked his ship off the Carolina coast, and now centuries later, people still step onto that sand with a certain energy in their chest. Blackbeard wasn’t just a pirate. He was a…
