“But Shaun, you don’t know me! I have tried every formula in the book. I just keep failing; I don’t have what it takes to succeed”. Well if that is what you are thinking, you need to change what you are thinking. God says you can fulfil your destiny and no one has a right to stop you. God told Joshua in chapter 1 verse 5, “ There shall not any man be able to stand before you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not fail you, nor will I forsake you ” ( Josh 1:5 ). God had told Moses in the book of Exodus ( Ex 3:12 ) when Moses claimed he wasn’t qualified to go before Pharaoh to demand the release of Gods people, that He (God) was with Moses. In other words, it doesn’t matter who you are, if God is with you all that matters is who God is a nd what God can do. That’s the great thing about God’s success formula. It is not based on our abilities; it is based on God’s abilities. We may be inadequate in a dozen different ways, ...

In last Men’s Breakfast, the topic of discussion was ‘raising the standard’. My brother in law, John, said his old boss, who is now retired, had a favourite saying and it goes like this, “If its unacceptable don’t accept it.” John said he now makes that one of his daily themes. All too often in life we settle for second best, all too often we settle for a lower standard than what we really desire or hope for. Some people long to see a greater victory, a better outcome, a standard of excellence, yet never get to see their dreams realized, and become frustrated to the point where they lower their hopes. The bible tells us that “Hope deferred makes the heart sick” ( Proverbs 13v12 ). If we think of sick ground or sour ground, we know its ability to grow and produce is diminished or even neutralized. A farmer will plough his ground, fertilise it and sometimes he will even grow a crop, just to be ploughed back in for the express purpose of refreshing and redepositing minerals and eleme...

If you are thirsty and dry, lift your hands to the sky and worship the King. Rain doesn’t fall, gravity pulls it down. It is your passion and it is your hunger that draws God to you. Psalm 72:6 says “ He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass, as showers that water the earth. ” Mown grass speaks of a prepared and maintained field, it is ready. When you give out continually, you can get dry yourself. The more you minister the more you need to be ministered too. If you constantly give water out, you need to go back to the source and be refreshed and refilled. Psalm 72:19 “ And blessed be His glorious name forever and let the whole earth be filled with His glory, amen and amen. ” Draw near to God and He will draw near to you.

When you pray, watch out for both hasty words and too many words ( Mat 6:7 ). The secret of acceptable praying is a prepared heart ( Ps 141:1-2 ) because the mouth speaks what the heart contains ( Mat 12:34 ). If we pray only to impress people, we will not get through to God. The author of Pilgrim’s Progress, John Bunyan, wrote. “In prayer, it is better to have a heart without words, than words without a heart.” Ecc 5:2 “ Be not rash with thy mouth, and let not thine heart be hasty to utter any thing before God: for God is in heaven, and thou upon earth: therefore let thy words be few. ” Helping you to win in life through Jesus Christ, Dr Shaun

Wow! Think about this, the bible says you must be born again or you will never get to see the Kingdom of God ( John 3v3 ). “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God”. Jesus said in John 3v5 “Verily, verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born of water (natural birth) and of the Spirit (spiritual rebirth), he cannot enter into the kingdom of God”. John 3v6-7 “That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not (don’t be amazed or wonder how can this be) that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again”. Jesus here was speaking about a second birth, not a natural birth, but a spiritual birth. This second birth takes place by the Spirit of God in your heart, your inner being, your spirit man, making you born again. John 3v16 “ For God so loved (God is a God of love) the world (that’s you, me, everybody, everywhere, every time, ever...

“Jesus was the personification of humility in the midst of His unlimited power”. Our goal should be, to be like our teacher Jesus. In Philipines 2v5-9, we learn that Jesus made himself of no reputation but took on Himself the form of a servant. He humbled Himself and became obedient (He became obedient, it was not automatic) unto death, even the death of the cross. Luke 14v27 says “And whosoever does not bear his cross and come [or go] after Jesus, cannot be His Disciple”. Jesus emptied Himself, we must empty our self and get full of Him. John the Baptise said “I must decrease, while He increases”. We must decrease so He can increase in us. A disciple is a disciplined follower; it takes discipline to be a disciple, that’s delayed gratification. Isaiah 8v16 : “Bind up the testimony; seal the law among my disciples”. The Hebrew word for disciple means: one who is instructed, accustomed, learned, taught and used. In the Greek it means “A learner”, one who ...
