  • THE GENTLE TAP

    “As a mother comforts her child, so will I comfort you” (Isaiah 66:13).

    The gentle tap on your shoulders, on your arms, sometimes on your thighs, says that He is with you, the Comforter.

    Those comforting whispers, ‘My son, my child,’ will make you shed tears.

    The Lord is alive.

    Develop a relationship with God. It’s awesome.

    You will never feel alone.

    Even in the darkest valley, God’s rod and staff bring comfort and prove He is close by.

  • WALK WITH GOD

    Two people can walk together only if they are in agreement.

    Husbands and wives do not always agree, and children do not always agree with their parents.

    Some siblings do not speak to each other for years.

    If you are not at peace with those you can see in person, how can you be at peace with the One you have not seen?

    Can you walk with the Lord Jesus?

    He is ready to walk with you.

    When you are at peace with Him, He will walk with you, and you will find peace with everyone. Your life will change. You will truly experience abundant joy in your heart and an indescribable happiness within you.

    This is the truth.

  • HE SEARCHES EVERY HEART

    “For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him” (2 Chronicles 16:9).

    “The eyes of the Lord are in every place, keeping watch upon the evil and the good” (Proverbs 15:3).

    His eyes move to and fro. He searches every heart.

    Can anyone escape from His eyes?

    His eyes penetrate deep down into the sea. Where can we hide?

    No one can claim that they are holy and without sin.

    Let’s turn to Him now.

    He gave us plenty of opportunities to repent and follow Him, but we kept neglecting Him.

    We have to face the Judge alone.

    Life is like a vapor; how will we face Him tomorrow?

  • SEEK CHRIST

    Are you lonely?

    Seek Christ, the trusted Companion.

    Are you thirsty?

    Seek Christ, for He hears the faintest cry and will quench your thirst.

    Are you hungry?

    Seek Christ, He will satisfy your hunger, for He is the Provider.

    Are you sick?

    Seek Christ, the greatest and the most powerful Physician. He will make you whole.

    Are you troubled?

    Seek Christ, the most compassionate Comforter.

    Are you tempted?

    Seek Christ, the victorious King who conquered the tempter. He will help you to overcome every temptation.

    Are you in debts?

    Seek Christ, the Banker and the Financier. He will help you to clear all your debts.

    Seek Christ, trust Him with all your heart, and He will never forsake you.

  • DO NOT GRIEVE THE HOLY SPIRIT

    We grieve the Holy Spirit when we spend more time with the world.

    He is grieved when our eyes are glued to worldly entertainment.

    He is grieved by our unforgiving hearts.

    He is hurt when we are drunk.

    He is much grieved when we forget His sacrifice and chase after the world.

    Every sin crucifies Him again on that cruel cross.

  • WHAT IS TO BE DONE WILL BE DONE.

    God was not pleased with Nineveh, but His mercy was above His anger; therefore, He sent the prophet Jonah to warn them. The All-Merciful Father was moved upon seeing the heart of Nineveh and saved them. Yet, the Lord’s word, once it comes out, will perform the deed and return to Him.

    Though Nineveh repented after prophet Jonah warned them, they went back to their old ways, and God destroyed Nineveh completely. His words came true after 150 years.

    Our world is more sinful than the period of the prophet Jonah. There are just a few more signs, and the Lord will return.

    Day after day and night after night this world is with the world.

    Are we prepared to face Him? Will we be saved?

    Will He say, ‘My good servant, you have pleased Me,’ or show us the way to the Hellfire?

    Let’s wait on the Lord and please Him so that we can dwell with Him.

    Heaven and Hell truly exist.

    Let’s be on the Lord’s side.

  • THE DOORS ARE SHUT

    The King of kings went far and wide searching for the heart. He found all the hearts occupied and very busy, and shut for him.

    He is left without a resting place. Lord Jesus weeps, for the doors are shut for Him.

    Let’s be thankful for all that the Lord has given us and lend our hearts to Him, so that He will have a place to rest.

    Will you lend your heart? Will you open your heart for Him?

  • SPIRITUAL ENCOUNTER

    “Peter replied, ‘Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit’ (Acts 2:38).

    Repentance brings cleansing. When the Lord touches your heart, you will begin to repent. When you feel that you have emptied your heart of all your sins, you have made room for the King of kings to dwell within you. With all your burdens removed, it is time to welcome the Lord.

    Though He was born in a manger, the Holy Spirit desires a clean and repentant heart. For repentance and forgiveness, you do not need to go to a priest or a pastor. The Lord Jesus Christ knows all your secret sins; confess them to Him. Only He can forgive our sins, for He is our High Priest. His blood alone can cleanse us from all our sins.

    No one is holy, and no one is perfect. King David says that he was born in sin. Once we have confessed all our sins, we should ask the Lord to anoint us with His Holy Spirit. We must not miss that waiting time. The Lord is waiting for us. He sees our thirst to receive Him, and one day He will pour out His mighty Holy Spirit upon you.

    You may have a remarkable experience. For some, it may feel like an electric current passing through the body. For others, it may feel like a block of ice being placed upon them. Some may experience their whole body trembling, while others may feel the Lord touch their tongue, and they may speak in unknown tongues.

    Encounters with God and such extraordinary experiences often take place in solitude. In the Acts of the Apostles, however, we see a different setting. The time and place of the anointing are determined by Almighty God. The Holy Spirit knows when, where, and how to give Himself, and to whom He chooses to reveal His presence.

    Would you like to have such an experience and enjoy the presence of the Holy Spirit?

    Kneel before the Lord, repent, and welcome the Holy Spirit into your heart.

  • RICH PREACHER & POOR CONGREGATION

    Many preachers teach contentment and sufficiency to their congregations, yet they live extravagant lifestyles.

    They preach against immorality and adultery, yet some fail to address it within their own households.

    They proclaim that the Lord is our Rock, Shield, Strength, and Fortress, yet they travel in bulletproof vehicles and use armed bodyguards, placing their confidence in human protection rather than in God. Even in their own churches, some preachers lack faith in God; they neither trust God nor their own people and move with armed bodyguards while preaching.

    Many church members lack discernment and continue to give generously.

    These leaders collect tithes from people who walk to church, while they travel in private jets. They live in luxurious mansions and on private islands, while faithful followers struggle to meet basic needs.

    God desires to dwell in the humble manger of your heart, not in a rich preacher’s mansion.

    The poor and faithful children of God should take heart. The Lord sees your sacrifices and has prepared a place for those who love Him.

    Those who exploit God’s people for personal gain and refuse to repent will face God’s righteous judgment.

    God wants your heart, not your money.

    Lord Jesus Christ said: “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of My Father who is in heaven.” (Matthew 7:21–23)

  • A STILL SMALL VOICE

    The Holy Spirit speaks, and He guides.

    When He guides us, His guidance is always perfect. He guided the Israelites in their day-to-day lives. He guided them to win battles and to speak to kings and their enemies.

    When we pay heed to that still, small voice, we can overcome every hurdle, cross seas, break down walls, win battles, feed thousands, and even raise the dead.

    We must be filled with the Spirit of Wisdom, and then we will begin to hear that still, small voice.
