Christian Medicine

In my office meeting, the meeting slides were posted on the screen. Many of my co-workers made comments on my slide presentation. I was busy jotting notes. Suddenly, I overheard one lady from the back of the room ask, "Where's the division chiefs travel trip information kept?"   Another person chimed in saying , "The general said our information is inaccurate!" Wait just one minute, I said in my head . My head came up like a cobra. "What information is wrong?" I asked. I was ignored as the group chatted among themselves. "What information?" I shouted over the group noise. The group chatter seemed to get louder. Now I was irate. "What information?!" The one lady goes on to say, "the division chiefs calendars," to which I replied, "The travel trip report is up-to-date." I won't bore you with the whole conversation but to shorten it, the group were talking about the calendar where the di

Too many time we doom ourselves before we try anything. Take Moses for instance; God called Moses to deliver his people from pharaoh's hands.  The first thing Moses utter was, "Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh and bring back your children?"(Exd 3:11) Even if God knew Moses couldn't do it, He would have given Moses what he needed for task.  God opens windows and doors for us because he believes in us and we close the door saying, "that's too hard, what else you got?" This is the very reason prosperity is not attain--no one wants to work towards it. The key word is "work". One thing God didn't do was accept Moses' excuses, rather, He gave him the resources to accomplish the task.          Are you faced with a task you think is out of your league? Whatever God called you to do today, do it.  Don't worry about finances, doors or people. He will give you everything you need (Phil 4:19). You need to walk towards the task by

How do you take your coffee, with or without sugar? Do you lock your car with or without keys in your hand?    Do you drive without checking your gas levels? Can you live with or without friends?  How about without an old flame?  What about religiously, do you live your  life without Jesus?    Life has a way of filling our days with trivial activities so you zombie your way through this life and live without what's important--a goal set towards Heaven.    Imagine never reading the Book of Genesis, the world would not know about creation, sin, the fall of man, God’s judgment, and the redemptive story of Jesus Christ. Where would you be if Jesus never came to earth? What control Satan would have on your life?  If you think sin and circumstance has you up at night, imagine your life with out Jesus!  W ithout him, there's no hope. It’s a life like a drifting ship without a sail; it aimlessly wandering through a sea with no future. Without Jesus, mankind would be doom. Bu

My favorite verse in the Bible is Isaiah 40:31, “they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary; and they shall walk and not faint”.   What are you waiting on? Are you in a situation that is  wearing you down right now? No end in sight?  One thing we can agree on is that Satan is doing his job--WELL!  Waiting is the last thing you wanted to do right now. What you want is to get away from your problems and be left alone.         When the children of Israel were taken by the Babylonians to another country, depression and homesickness settled into their psyches.   They get there and their captors tells them when the music play, to bow down to their god. If they didn't, they will be thrown in the fire. You know the story.  The three Hebrew boys Shadrach, Meshack and Abed-nego showed unwavering faith. Despite what the King declared, they did not worship the King’s god.   They were  throw into th

I love eating out, don’t you? McDonald, Chili’s, TG Fridays all have something in common—it’s food raises the cholesterol. But they're so good! The fries, hamburgers, pastas, clogs the arteries and raises the triglycerides.  Just the other day my doctor tells me to reframe from fast-foods because its toxic.  It got me thinking about something else--the soul. Have you thought about what are you filling you soul? Are you allowing negative thoughts fester in your mind or watching Inappropriate shows? What about allowing unforgiveness linger on your heart too long. Oh what about envy and jealousy setting up house in you? The Bible speaks about those damaging the soul. Don’t forget to put down lies, hatred, and name-calling.  I understand that if you are struggling with these sins and others, you are human and a working progress—we all are. Keep in mind if you rid yourself of the ills the Bible calls sin, you will have a healthy, blessed and enjoyable life here on earth and
