Daily Fountain 2017 - Jesus Our Confidant






Tuesday January 10th

Bible Reading:     Heb. 4: 14 - 5: 1 - 6

Topic:         Jesus Our Confidant

Can you imagine the fate of a ship on the ocean without a compass?

When we set our journey to an unknown destination, it is usually surrounded by fears, apprehension and uncertainties.

If we embark on the same  journey with a guide, however we are more confident.

This was the case with Abram (Heb. 11: 8 - 10; Gen. 12: 1 - 4)

In this life, we are like a VOYAGER. Our journey can be broken into stages. The year 2017 is a segment of this our life's journey.

The good news for us is this: in Jesus the revealed Messiah we have a sure Guide, a Guide that can never fail because in Him all things consist - the Past, the Present and the Future (Jn. 1: 3; Col. 1: 16 - 18). He is our Great High Priest Who has passed through all, hence we can journey on with great confidence because He understands our ignorance and human frailties (Phil. 2: 8)

However rough the path of our journey may be, we will OVERCOME every OBSTACLE as we place our TRUST in His ABILITIES.

Faith in the Great High Priest has the matchless potential of dispelling all fears.

Therefore make Him your Confidant and you will have a good story to tell at the end of every segment of your life's journey

Prayer:
Oh Lord Jesus, I confess that You are my Great High Priest. In You O Lord I place my confidence as I move on my life's journey even in this year 2017. Guide me O Thou Great Jehovah and land me safe on Canaan's side
Amen

Memory verse: "For we have not an High Priest Which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin" Heb. 4: 15

Daily Fountain 2017 - It Is To Your Advantage

Sunday May 21 5th Sunday After Easter Bible Reading:      John 16: 5 - 22 Topic:          It Is To Your Advantage In life we must be ready to endure some level of discomfort in the present, in order to enjoy comfort in the future. The disciples had become comfortable with the presence and involvement of Jesus in their lives, but Jesus announced to them that it was necessary for Him to return to His Father in order that the Holy Ghost might come. If Jesus stayed, He would be only in one place at a time; but His Spirit would be everywhere at the same time. The disciples had to recognize therefore that growth and maturity come with sacrifice which involves willingness to step out of our comfort zone. God knows the best for you. Be sensitive to the leading of His Spirit. Desire progress but don't reject the change that brings it. Yes, you may be in an uncomfortable situation now, but God uses it to work out His purposes fo

God Is Not A Partial God

  God Is Not A Partial God   I want to say something to someone today and that is the title of this message - God is not a partial God. Every day that the Sun rises, it does not rise for certain people that God loves more than others, it rises for all (including even those who don't believe in the existence of God) Every night that the Moon shines, it does not shine for a select group of persons who God loves most, it shines for all irrespective of their religious affiliations including those who have no religion. The 4 seasons happen for all inhabitants of the earth - there is no discrimination. Life happens to all irrespective of our belief system. Good things happen to bad people and bad things happen to good people. Evil people prosper as much if not much more than good hearted people - Is that God's doing? You see, whenever you see someone doing something exceptional, something extraordinary it is not about luck, it is not about favour, it's not ev
