Following Jesus means learning that prayer is not simply something we do when we need help. Prayer is the privilege of having a relationship with God Himself.

The Bible isn’t merely a collection of ancient stories, rules and religious teachings. It is God’s Word, given to reveal who He is, show us what He has done, and teach us how to live.
To my shame … I know that it is possible to become very religious without becoming very close to God. We can attend church, read our Bibles, pray, serve others, and still allow our relationship with God to become routine. We can be part of a great Church, and know the language of faith – but without enjoying the presence of the One we claim to follow.
Following Jesus is not a one-time decision that settles everything for the rest of our lives. It is a daily choice to put Him first.
Jesus did not save us and then leave us to figure out how to live. He gave us the Holy Spirit to live within us, guide us, strengthen us, correct us, and help us become more like Christ.
There will be times when you pray, and nothing seems to change. When the door you expected God to open remains firmly closed. When circumstances appear to contradict His promises. When you cannot understand what He is doing—or why He is allowing something to happen. That is where faith becomes more than a belief.
Following Jesus is not merely about believing the right truths—it is about learning to live a new life!
One of the enemy’s favourite weapons is uncertainty.
Have I done enough?
Does God still love me after what I’ve done?
What if my faith isn’t strong enough?
One of the greatest prisons we can live in has no walls and no guards… and we create it all for ourselves! It is the constant need for other people’s approval.
No one chooses suffering. If we could, we would gladly avoid grief, disappointment, illness, betrayal, loss, and heartache. Yet every one of us will face seasons when life seems painfully unfair, and our questions outnumber our answers.
