We are looking at whether natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes and hurricanesa are God’s will or not – are they caused by God? In our first post we looked at some principles to help us really see and understand the nature of God, and in our second post, we looked at where destruction reallyContinue reading “Natural Disasters and God’s Will 03: Can God Do Anything?”

Natural Disasters and God’s Will 02: The Source of Destruction
In our last post, we looked at the fact that the God of the whole Bible is a good God and not a destroyer and that Jesus is the true image of God. The truth is that: And when His disciples James and John saw this, they said, “Lord, do You want us to commandContinue reading “Natural Disasters and God’s Will 02: The Source of Destruction”
Natural Disasters and God’s Will 01: Three Fundamental Truths
Last Sunday when preaching I mentioned that God did not flood the earth, and that God is not a destroyer. I would have assumed that such simple truths that God is love and God is good would not be controversial, but they are. So we need to examine these things in the light of ScriptureContinue reading “Natural Disasters and God’s Will 01: Three Fundamental Truths”
The Will of the King
The Queen has just allowed Harry to step down from some of his royal expectations. She has also made it clear that’s not her perfect will and purpose. The Queen is a lot wiser than Harry, and has a lot more life experience and more experience in royalty. Doing what she suggested would bring aContinue reading “The Will of the King”
Healing Leaves 03: We Must Do What We Can’t
Faith is how we please God and faith is how we receive from God and faith is how we do what God wants. We need to believe that Jesus Christ is real, is on our side, and that He loves us. We need to believe in His work on the cross. In fact, to believeContinue reading “Healing Leaves 03: We Must Do What We Can’t”
Healing Leaves 02: The Woman with No Covenant
Every born-again Christian is in covenant with God to the point where we call the books of the Bible written to us as the New Covenant. We have promises of healing. Now sometimes, we are standing on that covenant, and it becomes hard to keep standing – we get weary of doing good, weary ofContinue reading “Healing Leaves 02: The Woman with No Covenant”
Healing Leaves 01: Healing in the Church
One of the promises that God gave me in 2012 was that the leaves of the Tree of Life would bring healing to the nations (you can find this promise in Revelation 22.2), and when God showed this to me, He was talking about several things, not least of which was the healing of racialContinue reading “Healing Leaves 01: Healing in the Church”
Losing Your Anointing – Really?
One of the charismatic traditions that have sprung up in the last few decades is the idea that we can, through our behaviour and actions, lose our anointing. There are teachers telling us we can lose our anointing, Christian magazine articles telling us how to guard our anointing, prophets prophesying people will lose their anointingContinue reading “Losing Your Anointing – Really?”
When Honour Becomes Idolatry
I am all for honouring those people God has called and anointed, especially when it is clear they have developed a lifestyle of wisdom and submission to God to walk in their dreams and have significant grace to impart to you. I have a number of people who are my mentors, my pastors, who IContinue reading “When Honour Becomes Idolatry”
Yahweh or the Highway?
According to an email I got today, unless we use the name “Yahweh” to worship God we are worshipping an idol.A word never once used by Jesus, Paul, Peter, that never appears in any of the New Testament – even when quoting the Old Testament.Paul happily called Yeshua Iesous because that was His name inContinue reading “Yahweh or the Highway?”
