The Olympics is the pinnacle event for champions to rise up and demonstrate what they are made of. Behind every triumph and every loss lies a story of a champion who rose up against the odds to reach the pinnacle of their sport. How much more the Christian? Do you desire to be a winner rather than a loser? To be at the top rather than at the bottom? Do you want to succeed in God! The Scriptures clearly tells us that God intends for us to be champions. Champions who succeed,

Have we ever taken a moment to ponder about the kind of faith we have? Apostle Peter commended the recipients of his epistle for their faith in this way. 1 Peter 1:8–9 (NIV84) Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy. Despite the fact that they had never seen Jesus, yet they believed in Him and loved Him. Peter was referring to the fact they believed Jesus is al

I don’t have any lower molars in my right jaw. I lost them all some years ago. Because of that I could not chew food properly on my right side. I had to get dental implants. Why did that happen? I did not brush and floss my teeth properly. Lots of impurity stuck on my teeth. Food impurities which caused plaque and decay. The dentist had to keep patching up decaying molars. Eventually my lower molars broke up, one after another. Impurities can have a profound effect

In the Sydney Olympics of 2000, a group of women athletes were chosen to be in the last line to carry the Olympic torch. The line up was a highly kept secret. It was a moving scene as we saw women athletes of past and present carrying the torch in the stadium. One by one, different athletes appeared as the torch was passed on to them. The final and greatest honour was accorded to Cathy Freeman, the 400m gold medallist - who was the darling of Australia at that time. What

Mary came back from shopping one Saturday morning. When she entered the house, she found the house to be a mess. Her 4 children were running all around the house shrieking in delight and chucking clothes at one another, jumping over chairs, leaving furniture overturned, clothes everywhere. Shocked, she was about to shout out to the kids to stop and warn them that Dad will discipline them. When suddenly, Tom her husband rushed around the corner and threw clothes at the child

One day in 1860, a huge crowd were watching the world-famous tightrope walker, Charles Blondin, in his attempt to cross the Niagara Falls. Blondin crossed the rope numerous times. He even did it with a wheelbarrow! A 1000 foot trip, 160 feet above the raging water. A fall meant certain death. The story is told that he spoke to the crowd, asking if they believed he could take one of them across on a wheelbarrow. Of course, they all enthusiastically gave their agreement. T

We are all on a faith journey with God. And in the end, what matters most is not how we began, but whether we finish well. Finishing well depends on one thing: how we keep walking with God day after day. How we keep moving forward with Him. Yet many believers find themselves stuck—caught in a kind of spiritual paralysis. They’ve heard God. They’ve encountered God. They’ve even stepped out before. But somewhere along the way, they stopped moving. Something froze their faith.

Does the error of your past hang over you like dark cloud? Like a guillotine hanging over your neck? We may have mucked up but God has not given up on us. In Part 1 we discovered that God will not forsake us despite our wrongdoing. Instead, God provides us the opportunity to find reprieve, in order that He may bring redemption and help us rebuild our lives – if we would look to Him. In Part 2, we explain more on how God works. God provides us the opportunity to find reprie

What happens when we muck up in our life? When we did something clearly sinful, perhaps abhorrent even to God? Is there any hope left? Can we ever be restored again? This is such an important issue for many who have made mistakes and regret it for the rest of their lives. When we study the Scriptures, we discover an incredible example of one man who truly messed up his life. In Exodus 2:11-15, we find Moses who thought he could save his people from the ruthless Egyptian slav

Have you ever considered where the richest place on earth is? The answer will surprise you. “The graveyard is the richest place on earth, because it is here that you will find all the hopes and dreams that were never fulfilled, the books that were never written, the songs that were never sung, the inventions that were never shared, the cures that were never discovered, all because someone was too afraid to take that first step, keep with the problem, or determined to carry
