Unwillingness to fully obey God

ATTENTION RELUCTANT LEADERS!

(September 18, 2024) Wayne Swift once again calls it as it is…

Picture this scenario — a young man like many young men feels a strong and ambitious call to change the world. He lives in a safe environment, and has been privileged compared to the rest of the world’s population. He has been well educated, and people like him, even admire him. But so far he hasn’t yet carried a great deal of responsibility.

Then one day as he’s out and about his impetuous nature compels him to begin the process of changing the world and he does so by buying into disputes that are not his to buy into. Worse still his inability to control himself leads him taking the life of another while trying to sort out a dispute. Character flaws were very quickly unveiled in the heat of a battle. The very next day another dispute occurs before his eyes and suddenly before he can take any remedial action both parties in the dispute turn to him and accuse him of murder.

MISSTEPS OF EVEN AN ANOINTED ONE!

(July 10, 2024) Angeline Selvakumari in love warns against being diverted from God’s divine plan for our lives…

Greetings in the name of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, to all members of our Echo of His Call family worldwide who faithfully read our magazine printed in 16 different languages every month. Grace and peace be yours from our eternal God, who was, and is, and is to come (Revelation 1:4).

This verse provides me with great assurance in every circumstance, knowing that I have a God who understands my past, present, and future, and walks alongside me as a friend and companion. With this assurance, I can face the uncertainties of tomorrow with inner peace, confident in God’s plan and purpose for me — which was ordained even before the creation of the world (Ephesians 2:10).

Reflecting on how intricately God has designed each one of us, I realise that our existence is not accidental but part of a divine plan. Even if one might believe they were unwanted or unexpected by their earthly parents, God has carefully crafted each individual, as stated in Psalms 139:13, ‘You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother’s womb.’

Therefore, it is our responsibility to seek out and fulfill the purpose for which we were created, with the guidance of the author and finisher of our faith.
