king_swordThe Jews have long celebrated this momentous Holy Day and with good understanding of some key elements of the meaning of the day as taught in the Hebrew scriptures. As a Christian celebrating this Holy time, when you consider the themes of the Feast of Trumpets, Yom Teruah/Rosh Hashana, have you considered the importance of Christ’s return in terms of establishing justice, and executing judgements?

love is
Do we love the things that God loves. As His children we should know what our Father loves and we will grow to love the same things. So what God loves is an important question for any Christian.

What does God hate?


It is just as important to know what God hates, as it is to know what God loves. If we are to become perfect as our Father is perfect, we must also hate those things that will keep us from achieving our potential as children of God – we must hate what God hates.

Woman of Valour: Eshet Chayil

Comments Off on Woman of Valour: Eshet Chayil, Sermons and Media, Videos, by CGP.

 

woman of valourThe Eshet Chayil, or woman of valour, teaches the Christian about many aspects of living a life that pleases God,whether you are a woman or a man. The valiant wife is a metaphor of the kind of devotion that brethren should have in their service to God. In our society that no longer values the eshet chayil, we have settled for self-absorbed lives that lack the nobility of character that God desires. In understanding Proverbs 31 we can all aspire to the virtues that should be a part of our daily lives as the people of God.

God's Opportunities

William Wilberforce

Are we seizing God’s opportunities and making the most of the talents He has given us? There is much to be learned from the bible and the example of other believers who used their talents to achieve godly purposes. If you are discouraged or wondering if God is blessing the work you are doing on His behalf, then learn from the examples in scripture and in the life of William Wilberforce and be encouraged to make the most of your opportunities as God’s ambassador. God gives opportunities, but it is up to us to seize them!
