Understand Matthew 15:1-9

Good day Beloveds 

We can sometimes get more caught up in the ways of men and forget that what is more important is God's way.

In the below scripture Jesus shows us how traditions, customs and culture can affect our faith and obedience to God.

Jesus wash born a Jew but he didn't share the good news about Judaism but about the kingdom of God. Remember that one is permanent and the other is temporary. Let's not mix the ways of men with the ways of God because the day of judgement is only based on the ways of God and not of mankind.

Why is Jesus Christ's race not important

Good day Beloveds  I have often heard people debate about whether Jesus was black or white. It is crazy to even say "was" because Christ still is. Most people focus on the physical and don't realize that it is mostly about the spiritual. Although the spiritual would affect the physical. This starts at the beginning of earthly life when the whole world got corrupt due to the fall of mankind. Good judged Adam and Eve for their disobedience. Fortunately, because He is a merciful and gracious God, He made a promise that a woman's offspring would come and crush the serpent's head (destroy the devil's work.) That is when Jesus being human was first foretold(prophesied) by God. This was not through prophets but through God's own mouth. At that moment Jesus was the supernatural Word of God that spoke everything into existence.  He had no physical body, He was fully spirit.  Genesis 1:3-4 NLT [3] Then God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. [4] And God...

Who did Adam's children marry?

Good day, Beloveds, Have you ever wondered about the children of Adam and Eve? A common question that arises is: who did they marry? While the Bible provides answers, many people overlook the relevant scriptures. This often happens because individuals read through the Bible rather than studying it in depth. Some may not read the Bible at all and instead choose to rely on what others say about the scriptures. Don't misunderstand me; being taught by a human can be beneficial, but it is far better to be guided by the Spirit of God. The Holy Spirit is available to teach us all things if only we allow Him to do so. Unfortunately, the scripture below is frequently ignored or overlooked: John 14:26 (NLT): "But when the Father sends the Advocate as my representative—that is, the Holy Spirit—he will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I have told you." Have you heard the misconceptions surrounding Adam and Eve's children? For instance, who did Cain marry? I...

Understand Joshua 1:1-9 What is it saying to you?

Good day Beloveds  The Word of God is a precious gift which is why you mustn't just read it. You need to understand it so you can live according to it. This leads to the manifestation of God's promises. Today we look at Joshua chapter one verses 1 to 9. Let me give you a bit of a background. Joshua is a newly appointed leader for the nation of Israel chosen by God. This nation consists of twelve tribes, these tribes are descendants of the sons of Israel also known as Jacob. Israel was the son of Isaac and grandson of Abraham. Abraham is the man that God promised to make a nation out of him. This is the nation, these people Joshua is leading. Joshua has succeeded Moses who just died, Moses was the first leader of this nation. He was just the best, he was the only man who was called a friend of God, and he got to see God. He taught the people how to know the one true God, to obey and fear him. It wasn't easy as they were mostly rebellious but he was devoted to what the Lord h...
