Sunday Choice – Why me Lord? St Paul explains this in 2 Corinthians 12:7-10 as follows:— “So to keep me from becoming conceited because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, a thorn was given me in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to harass me, to keep me from becoming conceited. Three times I pleaded with the Lord about this, that it should leave me. But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong.” Pray this clip will be a Blessing to you ...

SUNDAY CHOICE – I, the Lord of sea and sky, I have heard my people cry. God is a covenant-keeping God. He is faithful to His promises. We as imperfect earthly parents, but as far as possible, we honour our promises to our children. How much more does our heavenly Father who is perfect and loves us perfectly! For every problem, burden, need, and circumstance, God has made you promises of His faithfulness:– “For no matter how many promises God has made, they are ‘Yes’ in Christ. And so through him the ‘Amen’ is spoken by us to the glory of God,” 2 Corinthians 1:20. “So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these ...
Body Of Christ (Message of the Cross) – by Lakshman Navaratne Body Of Christ (Message of the Cross) The living Scripture is the resurrected body of our Lord and Savior. The first 39 books of the Old Testament are the history of Israel, recorded in letter. Mankind is all Flesh and blood of the first human Adam and Eve. The Israelite nation became a physical kingdom on earth with Moses as their deliverer and another 500 years later, using a shepherd boy David to accomplish the will of the Maker. Scripture records that the heart of David was truly inclined to the heart of the Maker of humanity, revealing to the faithful of Christ; David to be a type of a warrior and a redeemer, shedding human blood to accomplish the will of his Maker. The secret of David’s victories was his diligence to the Ark of the covenant, which ...

SUNDAY CHOICE – We are the body of Christ “So in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others”. Romans 12:5 Together, friends Melanie and Trevor have hiked miles of mountain trails. Yet neither would be able to do so without the other. Melanie, born with spina bifida, uses a wheelchair. Trevor lost his sight to glaucoma. The duo realized they were one another’s perfect complement for enjoying the Colorado wilderness: As he walks the trails, Trevor carries Melanie on his back; meanwhile, she gives him verbal directions. They describe themselves as a “dream team.” Paul describes believers in Jesus—the body of Christ—as a similar kind of “dream team.” He urged the Romans to recognize how their individual giftings benefited the larger group. Just as our physical bodies are made up of many parts, each with different functions, together we “form one [spiritual] ...

Crossing The Jordan – by Lakshman Navaratne Dust Divine Scripture is only for those who trust in a sovereign Creator. It has no value to anyone who remotely trusts in human logic, rooting our beginning to the Apes, and blindly branding humans as mammals who originally were Apes. Thus, believing our ancestry stemming to the Apes. Science has defined human life as “the evolved Intelligent Apes” We humans, born in the last 200 years, who are still breathing oxygen on earth, are led to believe all science is intelligence acquired knowledge, which has become the snare put before the unsuspecting humans by the academia, stemming to Intelligence of the Phylum Mammalian. Scripture vehemently documents; we did not originate from the Apes. We were made from “Dust “and made Divine by the Creator of the universe. [A] An Apostolic Christian living today on earth, who has received the Baptism of Pentecost, ...

John 2:11, “This beginning of signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory; and His disciples believed in Him.” Today on earth, our first experience with the “Living Word”, the resurrected Lord: This is the exact miracle that takes place in every human heart who shall experience the Apostolic calling to a new life in Christ.

A Hebrew wedding lasted 7 days of celebration, wine running out during the feast would be a disaster. This is exactly what ...
