  • Day 3 – Reconciliation

    Day 3 – Reconciliation

    Yesterday, we saw how rest, both physical and spiritual, was God’s will for us. By stepping out of our daily routine and deciding to intentionally redirect our time and attention away from our daily work towards our Creator and Father, we experience the rest and peace that Jesus promised to give to all those who labor and are heavy laden. A small precision worth pointing out here is that rest is not laziness. Being lazy and avoiding work or procrastinating…

    Day 4 – Reset

    Yesterday, we left off enjoying the fruit of reconciliation with our Father. We repented from the poor stewardship of our time, resources, and life, and decided to turn away from all distractions. But repentance is not just turning away from evil, it is also actively moving towards the God. This is the only way that we are sure we will not circle back to what we are trying to distance ourselves from. Jesus’ parable below illustrates this clearly: “When an…

    Day 5 – Renewal

    A wise man once said: The only prayer that God desires from an unbeliever is the prayer of repentance, for no matter which other blessing he asks for, none of them will matter if in the end he misses out on eternal life in God’s presence. This is why the first facets of the fruit of sabbath are about silencing the noise and busyness around us, returning to God, and reconciling with Him, and recalibrating our lives according to His…

    Day 6 – Relationship

    “It is not good for man to be alone”. You might have heard this verse (Genesis 2:18) being quoted at weddings, but it holds true for any kind of relationship, not only those between a husband and his wife. God did not design us to be individualistic beings, relationship and community are what He wants for us and though there are moments where He leads us into the wilderness to be alone with Him (Hosea 2:14), He does not want…

    Day 1 – Let the waiting begin

    Welcome into 2024! We believe this year will be a beautiful and exciting year for all those who take refuge in the Lord Jesus. Therefore, at the onset of this year, we want to invite you to “wait on the Lord”. The theme verse is taken from Psalm 27:14, “Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord!” If we look at some heroes of faith in the Bible, we quickly…

    Day 2 – Why should I wait?

    In a world of ever growing instant gratification, the thought of waiting for something is despised. It seems that not many things are worth waiting for; as a matter of fact something that has to be waited for is not worth it. In such a culture where virtues like patience and perseverance are not instilled in us, waiting seems unnatural and tedious. Sayings like “Good things come to those who wait” now sound like outdated advice for someone to give…

    Day 3 – What am I waiting for?

    Every person in this world waits and wants to receive something from God at some point in their lives. This is not something that started with us, it goes way back, as early as Adam, the first man to live on earth, who waited on God to form Eve, his suitable helper (Genesis 2:20-23). Throughout the Bible we have accounts of people who waited to obtain things, titles, positions, people, to whom we can relate and from whom we can…

    Day 4 – Who am I waiting for?

    We ended yesterday’s devotional with the interesting discovery that the Bible characters we consider as heroes of faith did not merely wait for something, instead they waited for someone. They waited for God to intervene in their situation. Maybe you are thinking to yourself: How can waiting for God help me find a solution to my problem? I need food on my table, a new job/ promotion, a spouse/child/friend, healing, deliverance from an addiction, courage for a fresh start, or…
