John 4: 24 says, 'God is Spirit, and they that worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth.' In 2016 I decided to examine deeper this verse of scripture by looking at bible characters who were giants in the worship of Jehovah God. I felt this could help us to learn more about the worship of His majesty. I wrote my thoughts in my book published the same year titled SUNDAY DEVOTIONAL WORSHIP (still available on Amazon.com), in which I x-rayed the lives of fourteen bible personalities under. Here is another of the 14 excerpts from the book.    2. NOAH 'Then Noah built an altar ...and offered burnt offerings on the altar. And the Lord smelled a soothing aroma.Then the Lord said in His heart, “I will never again curse the ground for man’s sake...nor will I again destroy every living thing as I have done" (Gen. 8:20-21 NKJV).     If the old English adage that says 'curiosity killed the cat' was true, then I probably would have been killed by curi...

It is written for our admonition in John 4:24, 'God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.' In 2016 I decided to examine deeper this verse of scripture by looking at bible characters who were giants in the worship of Jehovah God to see how we could learn more about worship of His majesty. I wrote my thoughts in my book published the same year titled Sunday Devotional Worship (still available on Amazon.com), in which I x-rayed the lives of fourteen bible personalities. Starting from today, here are the 14 excerpts from the book. 1. ABEL '...Cain brought an offering of the fruit of the ground to the Lord . Abel also brought of the firstborn of his flock and of their fat. And the Lord respected Abel and his offering, but He did not respect Cain and his offering' (Gen.4:3-5 NKJV).          Have you observed a little boy with something in his hand that you ask for, whether or not you are the one who gave it to ...

You may already have knowledge about Quiet Time, but this is an instructive piece by a young pastor of mine from his book. Here are extracts from the book. Keeping a successful quiet time Quiet time is a time consciously developed to be with God. It is a time you deliberately develop to tune out all distractions so as to abide in the presence of God. While praying, you talk to God and in reading through the scriptures, you hear Him. Quiet time helps you to develop the most important relationship in life. It is not a time to rush in or rush out of the presence of God. It helps you to develop the habit of spending regular time with God. Quiet time is a time to READ the most important book in the world. Quiet time is your personal school of the Holy Spirit. During quiet time, you increase in the knowledge of scripture and you experience the presence of God. It provides an unshakable platform for spiritual growth. To experience growth in faith, we must continually fellowship with G...

READING AND HEALING Proverbs 4: 20 to 22 says, 'My son, give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your eyes; Keep them in the midst of your heart; For they are life to those who find them, And health to all their flesh'.     Pastor Derek Prince, the international missionary and great teacher of the word, told the story of his healing. He was bed-riden during world war 2 at a military camp where there were no adequate medical facilities, so for over a year he laid ill in bed. Being a young Christian then, he had the zeal to read the bible right through, so he began reading, underlining passages that caught his attention. When he got to the Book of Proverbs, the above passage particularly arrested his interest. He studied the passage and got a revelation that those words were actually medicine, so he decided to take in those words three times daily and start doing what they say:  He paid attention to what God was telling h...
