Do you struggle to read the Bible every day? Do you struggle to take in, understand and let what you’re reading change your life? Me too! Some people find studying the Bible easy and they do it every day without fail. But I’ve always found it hard. I long to know the Bible inside and…
I’ll be honest straight from the bat: I am really bad at being intentional. Sorry Simon. When the 40 Days of Devotion were approaching this year, I was getting a little bit nervous. Because I knew that whatever I would do, I could not do it for the full 40 days. But I decided not…
It seems like the natural thing to do, husband and wife praying together, but is it? Talking to friends over the past few months it seems not, us included, so my 40 Days of Devotion are to do just that – pray daily with my wife. Where did my inspiration come from? It’s something I…
Before writing this I spoke to someone and said “ I have no idea what to write for my blog, I haven’t done very well this year with 40 Days of Devotion, I am just at my normal level of devotion.” Having said this (and the person prayed for me for some inspiration from God)…
Fear. We all fear something. Fear of speaking in front of a crowd, fear of missing out (a.k.a. FOMO), fear of heights (for me roller coasters are no-no!), rejection, the list goes on. It can have so much control in our lives and it can stop us from stepping out and trusting the Creator of…
I was 13 years old when I realised I was a sinner in need of a saviour. I am so grateful to God that, when I was so lost, He found me. God says, “Remember your creator in the days of your youth, before the difficult days come.” Ecclesiastes 12v1 Fast forward, and suddenly I…
During the 40 Day Devotion, I tried to replicate the pattern I began last year, which was to stop work 3 times/day and spend 5-10minutes in worship, being still, praying and listening to God. It worked a treat last year; I came to value the pauses and rhythm of checking in with my heavenly Father.…
I need to stop swearing. Why? Because if Jesus was sitting next to me would I want to swear? No. And Jesus is here and the Holy Spirit is within me. Swear words do not shine His light. For those of you who don’t swear, this will still be helpful… In my journey of learning,…
“Opportunity knocks but temptation leans on the doorbell” (BiOY) “If the grass is always greener on the other side then it’s probably Astro turf!” (BiOY) I struggle with temptation; it’s nothing new; I’ve lived with it since the day I was born. I always wanted everything I couldn’t have and usually fought passionately to…
I believe that God has been speaking clearly about the word rise for this year 2019. A few years ago, a lady from our church was speaking on a Sunday morning. She shared so much value so I complimented her talk after the service. In her humbleness, she replied “Nikki, God told me you have a platform…
