    Something That Helped Me With Exams and Stress

    I wanted to make this post because it is about something that I often struggle with. Managing my anxiety, especially around deadlines and during stressful situations. 2020 has only made things worse, and recently I've been feeling like I was approaching my breaking point. Today I felt so...

    Conversion and encouragement of faith through fiction?

    I was wondering whether anyone knew of people converted (or encouraged in their faith) through reading works of fiction. I'm thinking primarily of the fantasy novels of JRR Tolkien and CS Lewis but I'm not restricting the question to them. I don't mean Lewis' apologetics writings such as Mere...

    How to start reading the bible?

    I have pretty weak faith and have no real relationship with God but I still value the Bible and believe what it says. I’ve things at church and heard other contracting things online and so never really know what to believe anymore. I want to sit down for myself and read and hopeful God will help...

    Does anyone else suffer with brain fog?

    I suffer with this nearly all the time. I am not a stupid person but it has made me feel like one. I slowly feel like I’m forgetting the English language (I struggle formulating spoken sentences as I just can’t get the words together) ; I struggle with mental maths A LOT when I used to be a whiz...

    How to awaken dead faith and feel alive?

    I feel dead inside. No joy, no fun, no happiness. I am very lonely person with no friends and it feels like I’m distant from God too. I don’t have great relationship with Him either. How does someone get close to God and know that He is their close friend?

    Lovers of Light or Darkness?

    He Gave His Son John 3:16 ESV “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” What is love? Simply put, it is giving of oneself to meet the legitimate needs of others. God so loved us that he (the Father) gave his...

    Be Great? Yes

    Mark 9:33 Then He came to Capernaum. And when He was in the house He asked them, “What was it you disputed among yourselves on the road?” But they kept silent, for on the road they had disputed among themselves who would be the greatest. And He sat down, called the twelve, and said to them, “If...

    The remnant of God, will be preserved

    Hi there, Frequently we talk about the remnant being saved, in the Old Testament - but few realise that the remnant being saved, extends to the remnant of God. The just shall live by faith, this extends even to God - He must endure destruction, that is the destruction of His Power, to secure...

    How to have hope in heaven?

    I have noted that many people acknowledge death and not eternal life. Sometimes I wake up from the middle of a nap and the first thing that washes over me is a fear of death. I imagine it being a never ending state where I am not awake but instead trapped and unable to move and think as I am...

    When You Are Afraid Of Your Father's House(10) - The Overzealousness/foolishness Of Faith?

    Been in the same kingdom doesn't mean we will all have the same experience, beliefs, and results! No, this kingdom operates at different levels for everyone. It's why we have different revelations, result, manifestations, and demonstrations of the Spirit. It's the reason why there are different...

    The Impact of How We Live

    Luke 12:49-53 ESV “I came to cast fire on the earth, and would that it were already kindled! I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how great is my distress until it is accomplished! Do you think that I have come to give peace on earth? No, I tell you, but rather division. For from now on in...

    Delivered From Fear

    Psalm 34:4-7 ESV “I sought the Lord, and he answered me and delivered me from all my fears. Those who look to him are radiant, and their faces shall never be ashamed. This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him and saved him out of all his troubles. The angel of the Lord encamps...

    44. To seek light To seek the light of God is a process to do every day of our lives. Let’s rise: “Rise up in splendour! Your light has come, the glory of the Lord shines upon you.” Isaiah, chapter 60, verse 1 What is the light that we seek? The Light is already on us. The Light of the Lord...

    Paul said, "...do not become slaves of men." Why?

    Right. Paul gave the imperative, "...do not become slaves of men." Now, why would he say this, and why might it be something important to consider as a point of contention against the idea that Jesus and the Apostles somehow "advocated" slavery as some skeptics now say they did? How might we...
