DAGSTUKKIES UIT DIE BYBEL: HANDHAAF JOU PASSIE VIR DIE EVANGELIE

Daily Devotional: MAINTAIN YOUR PASSION FOR THE GOSPEL But that which ye have already hold fast till I come (Revelation 2:25). As a Christian, every day presents opportunities for you to keep the faith and maintain your confession of who Jesus is and what He means to you. Nothing should take your focus off the Master; He’s all that truly matters. Declare your love for Him, and your passion for the Gospel. Some allow anger or bitterness to douse their zeal and effectiveness in ministering to others. Hebrews 12:15 says, “Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root ofRead More →

DAGSTUKKIES UIT DIE BYBEL: JY HET ALLES WAT JY BENODIG

Daily Devotional: YOU HAVE EVERYTHING YOU NEED After these things the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward (Genesis 15:1). The underlined words spoken by God to Abraham in our opening verse reminds of what He said later to Aaron in Numbers 18:20: “…I am thy part and thine inheritance among the children of Israel.” We understand from the Scriptures that the Lord apportioned inheritance to the different tribes of Israel except the Levites, to whom He said, “I am your inheritance.” How rich can you get when theRead More →

DAGSTUKKIES UIT DIE BYBEL: SY STEM IS NIE ’N GEHEIMENIS NIE, JY KEN HOM

Daily Devotional: KNOWING HIS VOICE ISN’T A MYSTERY My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me (John 10:27). The Lord Jesus said, “My sheep hear my voice and I know them, and they follow me” (John 10:27). Many wonder if it’s possible to hear God speak in a world where there’re so many voices. The words of the Master in John 10:2-5 clarify this. He said, “But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, andRead More →

DAGSTUKKIES UIT DIE BYBEL: ’N HOË ROEPING

Daily Devotional: A HIGH CALLING And all things are of God, who hath… given to us the ministry of reconciliation.(2 Corinthians 5:18). 2 Peter 3:9 tells us that God isn’t willing that any man should perish, but that all should come to repentance. He proved His commitment by sending Jesus to die for the salvation of all men (John 3:16). However, despite God’s commitment to saving the lost, He wills to do it through us His saints and has committed to us “the ministry of reconciliation.” Jesus said in Mark 16:15, “…Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.” WeRead More →

DAGSTUKKIES UIT DIE BYBEL: JY IS DIE HEMEL SE BESTE WERD

Daily Devotional: YOU’RE WORTH HEAVEN’S BEST Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold…But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot (1 Peter 1:18-19). Your value to God is revealed in the price He paid for your salvation, which is the precious blood of Jesus Christ. It shows how priceless you really are to God. Never be deceived by voices that tell you you’re not special or those who treat you like you’re nothing. The fact that you’re worth the blood of Jesus Christ says a lot; it definesRead More →

DAGSTUKKIES UIT DIE BYBEL: JOU REAKSIE AKTIVEER DIE KRAG

Daily Devotional: YOUR RESPONSE ACTIVATES THE POWER …for he hath said…So that we may boldly say… (Hebrews 13:5-6). In Christianity, you believe and speak: “We having the same spirit of faith, according as it written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak” (2 Corinthians 4:13). You don’t receive the Word to be quiet. If you don’t respond, the Word will do you no good. Responding to the Word means more than “reciting” what God has said; you have to say something that’s consistent with what He has said. For example, He has said His divine power has granted youRead More →

DAGSTUKKIES UIT DIE BYBEL: VERKONDIG DIT MET VRYMOEDIGHEID

Daily Devotional: PREACH IT BOLDLY But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me… (Acts 1:8). Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth and the Life, and no one comes to the Father, but by Him. Be convinced and compelled by this truth, and preach it boldly. Don’t be afraid of being persecuted for proclaiming His Name. 2 Timothy 3:12 says, “In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted” (NIV). The early apostles were beaten and threatened never to proclaim the Name of Jesus. ButRead More →

Daily Devotional: FAITH IN HIS WORD …Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour (Matthew 8:13). On a certain occasion, after His resurrection, the Lord Jesus appeared to His disciples as they rounded off a fruitless fishing mission. The disciples had toiled all night and caught nothing. Then Jesus said to them, “…Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and you shall find…” (John 21:6). The Bible says, “…they threw the net out and could not pull it back in, because they had caught so many fish”Read More →

Daily Devotional: A SURE WAY TO EXERCISE YOUR SPIRIT But refuse profane and old wives’ fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness. For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come (1 Timothy 4:7-8). Exercising yourself unto godliness means exercising your human spirit, which is the real you. And one sure way to exercise your spirit is praying in tongues; it keeps your spirit aglow and afire for God. Jude 1:20 says, “But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the HolyRead More →

Daily Devotional: REFUSE THE “DIRTS” THAT CAN CLOG YOUR “WELLS” He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water (John 7:38). Isaiah 12:3 says, “Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation.” Wells of salvation refer to all the blessings of Christ inherent in the deep recesses of your spirit. The Bible says out of your spirit are the issues of life. You carry within you a fountain of blessings. Now, the devil always seeks to block up “the wells.” Think about it in line with what happened inRead More →
