GOD WILL ORDER OUR STEPS
GOD WILL ORDER OUR STEPS There is a proverb in my native Yoruba Language that goes like this: “All lizards crawl on their bellies; but we do not know which ones have belly aches.” This means that by looking at what is on the outside it is not possible to tell what is on the inside. It is not uncommon

WHEN WE OBEY When we obey God, great and wonderful things happen. We should therefore never underestimate the power of obedience. The word of God tells us that obedience is better than sacrifice. “But Samuel replied ‘Does the LORD delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the LORD? To obey is better than sacrifice, and to

I AM NOT THE KING I heard this true story some time ago. A man and his wife were planning the wedding of their son. It was such a thing of joy and they were very happy. All the preparations were getting on fine. And then somewhere along the line some obstacles began to rear their ugly heads and it
