VAB's Food For Thought

  FOOD FOR THOUGHT 30. MERCY AND TRUTH Proverbs 3:4 says, "And so find Favour and high esteem in the sight of God and man." Most times believers dwell more on finding favour and high esteem (good understanding) in the sight of God and man. We hardly remember 'And so', that begins verse 4. It is a follow up to verse 3! Proverbs 3:3 says, " Let not mercy and truth forsake you, bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart." The thing to note here is you should not forsake mercy and truth. Mercy and Truth should be an important part of your life. You should always remember to practice Mercy and Truth. When you do this, verse 4 comes into fulfilment.   'And so' in verse 4 gives you assurance. When you diligently practice Mercy and Truth, Favour and High esteem are assured. What is Mercy and Truth? According to Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary, MERCY is a kind or forgiving attitude shown towards somebody you ha...

FOOD FOR THOUGHT 29. GOD'S WORD Jesus is God's Word. John 1:1 says, In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:14 also says, And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. Hold on to Jesus. That's how to hold on to God's Word. All the woman with the issue of blood did in Mark 5:25-34 was to touch God's Word. And she was made whole. All she said was, "If only I may touch His clothes, I shall be made well." She believed in Jesus. Believe God's Word. Say God's Word. It will manifest. God bless!   VAB, LAGOS. https://vabfood4thot.blogspot.com  

FOOD FOR THOUGHT 28. GOD'S WORD WILL COME TO PASS   In Exodus chapter 3:7-10, God told Moses what He wants to do concerning the children of Israel. Verse 8: "So I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up from that land to a good and large land, to a land flowing with milk and honey, ..." Verse 10: "Come now, therefore, and I will send you to Pharaoh that you may bring My people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt." Moses went to Egypt. With the help of Aaron his brother, delivered God's message to Pharaoh. Pharaoh refused and added to their burden. God sent ten plagues. Eventually, Pharaoh release them. The children of Israel left Egypt with wealth. At the red sea, Pharaoh's army came behind them. After all the time it took to be released, despite the plagues, it seemed the end had come for the children of Israel. Exodus 14:29-30 : "But the children of Israel had walked on dry land i...
