'Blow the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in My Holy Mountain. Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble; for the day of the Lord is coming, for it is at hand' - Joel (2:1)

Today, the sport of football is a multi billion dollar industry, with lots of professional players playing in different leagues across the globe. when you also observe the intense passion of the fans, one can only conclude its an amazing sport like most others, creating employment, entertainment and fun for a global population.

Dear brethren, in my personal view, the road leading to the Kingdom of Heaven may be likened to a big and important football match. In a typical football match, there are two teams that play against each other. Likewise dear friends, in the world today, there are people who

" BUT THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT IS LOVE, JOY, PEACE, LONG SUFFERING, KINDNESS, GOODNESS, FAITHFULNESS, GENTLENESS, SELF CONTROL. AGAINST SUCH THERE IS NO LAW. AND THOSE WHO ARE CHRISTS HAVE CRUCIFIED THE FLESH WITH ITS PASSIONS AND DESIRES" - (GALATIANS 5: 22-24)

Whenever you see more of these traits in someone, That person may look stupid and foolish to the world in many instances. But you can guess  that such a person belongs to Christ and is just exhibiting the traits of His Father. Brethren let us pray to have these gifts that we may be like Him for we are all made in His image and likeness.

'The great day of the Lord is near; It is near and hastens quickly. The noise of the day of the Lord is bitter; there the mighty men shall cry out' - Zephaniah 1:14

My Brothers wife recently gave birth to a baby boy; to God be the Glory. When one sees a pregnant woman in her early weeks of pregnancy; it might not be immediately obvious to see judging from her outward appearance except she is subjected to

'and Jesus said to her. 'Martha, Martha, you are worried and troubled about many things. but one thing is needed and Mary has chosen that good part which will not be taken away from her'- Luke (10:41-42)

I was recently chatting with a friend and he told me of how he was listening to the biography of a popular American female musician; and realized that she deserved so much praise for her achievements. Now there is nothing wrong in commending someones hard work or achievements but it is right to always acknowledge the true source of success in any sphere of life. The Lord said in John (15:5) 'he who abides in Me and I in him bears much fruit, FOR WITHOUT ME YOU CAN DO NOTHING'.

Dear brethren, sometimes we might be tempted
