AN ETERNAL PERSPECTIVE
The fifth chapter of Jeremiah ends with a thought provoking statement in verse 31 – "...and My people love to have it so. But what will you do in the end?" The preceding chapters speak of the disobedience of the Judean people, such having turned their backs on God. Trapped...
THE LINK
As witnesses for Jesus, believers are compared to salt in Matthew 5 v 13. "You are the salt of the earth," Jesus proclaims. What an interesting comparison! Why would Jesus specifically refer to Christians as salt? When one considers the uses of salt – it has over 14 000...

DANGEROUS DREAMS
Dreams have a powerful influence on the dreamer. Both children and adults alike are encouraged to dream, such giving the individual purpose and direction. Indeed, as a Christian, dreams are likewise encouraged, the Bible itself promoting such – "Where there is no vision, the...

WHAT DO YOU WANT?
Sitting at the airport waiting for my flight home to Cape Town. What a wonderful week it has been! Having ministered both at a crusade in Ebony Park as well as at the youth services of Rhema Bible Church, the realisation that believers are desperately hungry for God-encounters...
