Seeking, Submitting and Honouring JESUS CHRIST in our Daily Activities

Shabbat Shalom from Kent, London- 06Jun2025

Scripture Reference: Pr 3:6- In all our ways acknowledge HIM

Decisions, directions discussions, distractions, and doubting—oh, the delightful D words that dominate our daily lives! It’s like we’re starring in a never-ending alphabet drama. Do we need guidance? Absolutely. Should we recognize JESUS in all of this? Definitely. But is it simple? Well, not exactly rocket science, let’s be honest, we could use a bit of divine help. Are we pleasing HIM? Maybe, maybe not. Are we missing the connect? Probably left it on read. Any feedback from Jesus? We might want to check our spiritual inbox—could be some unread messages there about pacing ourselves with His leading!

Let’s take a look at these scenarios and find inspiration in HIM. May HIS boundless Grace Bless us to sharpen our skills in spotting HIM and HIS Presence, like a divine game of hide seek!

  • Lk 17:11-19 - Reflecting on the account of ten lepers who called upon Jesus, He instructed them to go and show themselves to the priests. As they went, they were cleansed. One of the ten, a Samaritan, returned, overwhelmed with gratitude, unable to thank Him enough. Jesus, astonished, asked, " can none found to return and Give Glory to God except this foreigner?" He then said to the man, "Your faith has made you whole.". Recognise ACCOLADE!
  • Jn 8:1-11-When JESUS responded with wisdom, when religious leader brought a woman accusing her of adultery, saying let one of you who is with out sin be the first to throw a stone at her! Everyone left realising their own imperfectness, when only JESUS remained, He told her neither do I condemn you, go and sin no more! Recognise GRACE!
  • Mk 5:1-20- A Man possessed by a legion of demons, tormented and isolated and living among the tombs. JESUS decided to visit him, the demons recognised HIS Authority, begged not to cast out of region. After being delivered, the man was eager to follow JESUS, received a command to stay in his homeland, share his testimony, spreading the news of his miraculous healing and many were amazed! Recognise POWER!
  • Jonah 1-4- When Jonah disobeyed God's command to preach in Nineveh the rebellious prophet fled to Tarshish. During a storm, after being cast into the sea, he was swallowed by a great fish and spent three days and nights inside it. There, he acknowledged the LORD, prayed in distress, and repented for his disobedience. In response, God commanded the fish to vomit him onto dry land, granting him a second chance. Jonah then delivered God's message to Nine, resulting in an unexpected mass repentance. Recognise 2nd CHANCE.
  • Jn 11:17-44-Martha, grieving for the of her brother Lazarus, hurried to meet Jesus upon His arrival. She expressed faith, saying, "Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died." Jesus revealed, "I am the resurrection the life. The one who believes in Me will live, even though they die." Martha recognized Jesus' authority, which led to an extraordinary miracle as He raised Lazarus from the dead, demonstrating His power over death itself. Recognise AUTHORITY!
Let us come to JESUS (Jn 6:37b) by drawing near to GOD (James 4:8) as The Lord is Near to us (Ps 145:18), hence Let us Know, Acknowledge and Recognize JESUS (Pr 3:6) . 

Peace be upon the State of Israel and us. Shalom. Have a Good Weekend. 

In His Grip

Boldness

Boldness Reference: Heb 4:12-16 We do not have to tiptoe toward God. We can always enter His presence—not only when in need, full, or facing challenges. His Word pierces soul and spirit, joints and marrow. He knows our thoughts and intentions before we ask or think. So the author of Hebrews urges us: boldly approach the throne of Grace. Receive daily bread, seasonal help, mercies, and Grace He has already arranged. In time of need, at the right time, He will help us. As Peter assured, submit obediently in His hand. Confidence: Not because the week went well. Not because your prayers feel mature. Because the curtain tore. Confidence isn't arrogance. It's knowing God left the door open.  The barrier didn't get thin—it split wide open. The King on the throne is also our High Priest. He knows our weakness from the inside. We are not interrupting Him. We have been invited. Gentle invitation. Urgent invitation. If Grace finds us and fills the room, what happens to the pressure to...

The Lifestyle of David - Faith, Trust and Prayer

The Lifestyle of David - Faith, Trust and Prayer Reference - 1 Sam 17, Ps 59 and 2 Sam 15 David was known as a man after God’s own heart, as witnessed by God Himself. The Bible reveals many reasons for this, but one of the most notable is his unwavering faith—trusting God completely and placing all his hope in the One who is more than able to guide him. I would like to discuss three scenarios and observe his responses to inspire our faith and draw us closer to Him. 1) When the Israelite army fled from Goliath, David stood his ground, boldly declaring the giant’s defeat before the fight even began, trusting entirely in the Name of the Lord rather than physical weapons. With a single stone, David struck Goliath down, vindicated God’s Name, routed the Philistine army, and proved to all that the battle belongs to the Lord. He proclaimed victory before the clash, relying not on spear, sword, or javelin, but on the Lord’s power. David said, in 1 Sam 17:45-47, “You come against me with sword,...

Prayer is tactical, transactional and transformative practice in the Bible.

Yes, prayer in the Bible is indeed **tactical**, **transactional**, and **transformative**. Each of these aspects highlights a different dimension of prayer, showing its depth and power in the life of a believer. Let’s explore these three dimensions with biblical examples and insights: --- ### **1. Prayer is Tactical** Prayer is a **spiritual weapon** and a strategic tool in the believer’s life. It is used to engage in spiritual warfare, seek God’s guidance, and advance His kingdom. - **Biblical Example**: **Ephesians 6:18**     Paul instructs believers to "pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests." This is part of the "armor of God," showing that prayer is a tactical weapon in spiritual battles.    - **Application**:     Prayer is not passive; it is an active, intentional practice to combat evil, break strongholds, and bring God’s will to earth. It is a way to align ourselves with God’s strategies and overcome th...
