“So, commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these Words of Mine. Tie them to your hands and wear them on your forehead as reminders. Teach them to your children. Talk about them when you are at home, and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed, and when you are getting up. Write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates, so that as long as the sky remains above the earth, you and your children may flourish in the land the Lord swore to give your ancestors

"Your Word is a Lamp to my feet and a Light to my path” (Psalm 119:105) Welcome back dear student, continuing from last week, I once saw a sign on a tiny mountain road with grass growing up the middle saying ‘Do not follow Google Maps up here!’ It made me laugh, for that was exactly where the app was leading me – up this impassable road into oblivion, where I’d probably have to be pulled out of a ditch by a tractor!

Sounds pretty straightforward doesn’t it? So why do some struggle to see answers to prayer? It’s a lonely place waiting for breakthrough. There are many reasons p

“Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, bright as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb” (Revelation 22:1). Welcome back dear student, this hot weather makes one long for cool waters that refresh. But a quick dip brings only temporal relief. The Scripture above reflects a vision that the prophet Ezekiel had (Ezekiel 47:1-12). In the prophecy he saw a river of living water, representing God’s Presence. God challenged him to become completely
