Reading: Matthew 26:36-44 I used to think that Jesus agonised so much during his prayer at Gethsemane due to the impending beatings, scourging, lashing and crucifixion. He was after all in human form, with flesh, blood and nerves. But now I know—and it would also be the most sorrowful state for any of us unless…
Reading: Matthew 26:41 “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the body is weak.” Lord, thank you for your Holy Spirit who helps me to pray. I also pray for your Spirit of discernment. Open my eyes, my ears, my mind and my heart, Lord, and…
Reading: Matthew 26:26-30 “When they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives” v.30. A: During the Last Supper. 😊 #TatayQuips
Reading: Matthew 26:26-29 26 Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and after blessing it broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat; this is my body.” 27 And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, saying, “Drink of it, all of you, 28 for…
Reading: Matthew 26:17-25 “I wish, God that you just didn’t bring me forth into this world.” Many of us would have said that in our younger years as we went through trials, disciplines and self-inflicted pain. Even Job said that (Job 10:18-19). Jesus said that it would had been better for the man who betrayed…
Reading: Matthew 26:14-16 For Judas and the chief priests and their company, Jesus was worth 30 silver coins. For Satan, whatever it was disposed in his power—i.e., all the authority of the kingdoms of the world and their glory (Matthew 4:8-9; Luke 4:6-7). Jesus, however traded His life for mine. He’s already mine, not because…
Reading: Matthew 26:6-13 When Jesus was anointed with nard at the house of Simon the Leper in Bethany, his disciples would have been with him 3 years—witnessing all the healing, the raising of the dead, multiplying loaves of bread and many other miracles. When He walked on the water and calmed the storm they realised…
Reading: Matthew 25:31-46 After the thousand years of Jesus’ reign on earth will come the Great White Throne Judgment. I believe Matthew 25:31-46 is part of that scene. But going back to my question—will politicians go to heaven (or which among them)? I don’t know—I will be judged myself, as I also belong to the…
Reading: Matthew 25:31-46 When Jesus returns to earth, He will be governor of the whole world. And after a thousand years, He will judge the nations. He will separate the peoples—the sheep on the right, the goats on the left. To the righteous (sheep on the right) He will give the kingdom. He will tell…
It is not Male & Female, my friends. Nor Black & White, nor people from the Western & Southern hemispheres. It’s neither about one’s ethnicity, citizenship, gender identification nor wealth. Would you like to know how we will be grouped in the future? The passage below tells us: Reading: Matthew 25:31-33 “When the Son of…
Reading: Matthew 25:14-30 I tried reading again the Parable of the Talents with the intent to highlight less on the page of my Bible. Here are the few phrases I’ve highlighted: “entrusted his property to them” “hid his master’s money” “settled accounts” “I have gained five more” “I will put you in charge of many…
Reading: Matthew 25:1-12 We all know the story of the kingdom of heaven likened to the waiting virgins for the bridegroom to arrive. The bridegroom took a long time in coming, they became drowsy, and when he did finally come, not everyone was ready. At the last moment some of them were scrambling for oil…
“And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” – Matthew 24:14 My brothers and sisters, have we been proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom within our household, in our neighbourhood, at our workplace and with our friends? Are…
Have you ever wondered who are the most hated people in the world? Maybe not just hated, but more than feelings of hate, actually persecuted. Are they black people? People who fall under the LGBT umbrella? Some ethnic minorities? I made a search for “most persecuted in the world” and these are the top 5…
