We all have 'daddy issues'. No father is perfect. But if you yearn for your relationship with him to be fixed, forgive your earthly father. He may be an absentee father perhaps in the physical. He may not be attending to your emotional needs. A lot of fathers are not very good at displaying their affections and emotions. Some of you may have experienced being raised by an abusive dad. He may have hurt you physically, emotionally, verbally, or even sexually. This may have scarred you for all your life, but there is one way to heal---forgive. One way to be able to forgive is to pray for his salvation. Let's accept the truth---Jesus is our only hope. Nothing you can do can change your father. Only Jesus can.

There are 4 things that a good father does. First, he teaches. Psalm 78:5-8 says, "He commanded our fathers to teach to their children, so the next generation might know (even children not yet born) and they in turn will teach their own children; so each generation should set its hope anew on God and not let God's works go out of their minds.” The goal is for every generation to know the will of God.

Growth is a process. It means to develop from a lower or simpler form into a higher, more complex, or advanced form. It is to mature or increase in size, number, value, or strength. In 1 John 15:8, it says, "My Father's glory is shown by bearing much fruit." If a fruit-bearing tree does not grow, then it won't be able to bear any fruit. That means the tree is not successful in achieving its purpose---which is to bear fruit. In the same way, it is God's will for all of us to become successful. Ephesians 4:12-15 says, “we shall become mature people, reaching to the very height of Christ’s’ full stature . Then we shall no longer be children…instead we must grow up n every way to Christ." When we succeed in different areas of our lives (marriage, work, school, relationships, etc.), we are displaying and giving back God's glory.

When people ask you how you are, how do you respond? In Psalm 1:1-3, it says, “Blessed is the person who does not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers. Instead, he delights in the teachings of the Lord & meditates on it day & night. That person is like a tree planted by streams of water bearing fruit each season. His leaves never wither & in whatever he does, he prospers.” In addition, Psalm 52:8 also says, “I am like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God; I trust in God's unfailing love for ever and ever.” Read more: https://www.facebook.com/notes/sfcc-champion/growth-progress/10206107423436256

Pressure is inevitable. The issue therefore is not on the pressure or on the source. The focus should be on learning to handle it when it comes. What you do under pressure is what makes the difference. It is what sets you apart from the 'common'. The 'common' do not handle pressure well. 2 Cor. 1:8-11, Paul says, “We think you ought to know, dear brothers and sisters, about the trouble we went through in the province of Asia. We were crushed and overwhelmed beyond our ability to endure, and we thought we would never live through it. Indeed, we felt we had received the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead. He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us again. We have placed our confidence in him, and he will continue to rescue us. And you are helping us by praying for us. Then many people will give thanks because God has graciously answered so many prayers for our safety." There are 4 thin

We are all born selfish. It is in our old nature. But Jesus died for us, and with His death, our old nature died with Him. Thus, we are now givers and not takers. Abundant giving results in abundant living. God rewards generosity if it is accompanied with the right heart. He does not actually bless the 'giving' or the amount, but He blesses the right heart or the attitude that goes with it. Hebrews 11:6 says, "believe that God exists and that He rewards those who sincerely seek Him." He rewards in terms of material blessing. 2 Cor. 9:10 says, “God supplies seed for the farmer and then bread to eat. In the same way, he will provide and increase your resources & produce a great harvest of generosity in you. Yes, you will be enriched in every way so that you can always be generous. And when we take your gifts to those who need them, they will thank God." God provides seeds for you to dispense and the breas He gives is for your personal consumption. When we are blessed to bless others, peop

"Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will send you out to fish for people." (Mt. 4:19) Discover more helpful tips & be enlightened by listening to this life-changing Word of God presented to you by Tim Warden.

Jesus's mission when He was here on earth was to seek and save the lost. Let His mission be our mission. Let us care and love the lost the way Jesus loves and cares for them. Let us save souls and make disciples.

Set a culture by design. Don't miss out your destiny because of the bad culture. Replace the bad culture with a new trend- "Kingdom culture"

God is not forming a fan club; He is making disciples. Its a privilege to be a disciple.

Discover and believe what God says about your identity. It doesn't matter what other people say about you, your true identity is based on what God says about you.

Christians have a new nature since they have been merged with Christ.

Jesus, who fulfilled the law, broke the power of sin on us through His life, death and ressurection.

Righteousness is acceptable-ness. We cannot earn or produce righteousness, nor it is a reward we achieve. No. It is a gift from God imputed to us when we received Jesus in our hearts.

You know what will change a sinner's heart? It is the message of forgiveness.

God's forgiveness is not something you've got to get, it's something you've got to receive. God has already forgiven you. When you hear about God's forgiveness of your sins, it will change your heart.

Keep learning & growing. God never intended for us to stop learning. It is always His will for us to grow in the character of Christ. Let us be enlightened & encouraged with today's teaching by Tim Warden. Together, let us take the challenge go into another level of learning & growing, & become a champion in life.

God knows everything about you. I follow Jesus because He knows and loves me, not because I know and love him. When God calls you, your life is change.
