“…If anyone wants to be first, he must be the last of all and the servant of all.” – Mark 9:35

30th June 2025 The disciples argued over who among them was the greatest. Each likely recalled moments of favor, miracles performed, or words of praise that affirmed their importance. But Jesus, knowing their hearts, redefined greatness. True greatness, He said, is not found in status or recognition, but in becoming the least—choosing the path of […]

“…Many said, ‘He is dead.’ But Jesus took him by the hand and helped him to his feet…” – Mark 9:27

29th June 2025 The demon-possessed boy had no strength of his own. Tormented in mind and body, he was tossed helplessly by forces beyond his control. When he collapsed, lifeless before the crowd, many declared him dead—a hopeless case. But Jesus stepped in. He took the boy by the hand and raised him up.  Many

“…Truly I tell you, there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God arrive with power.” – Mark 9:1

26th June 2025 For most of the time that Jesus walked with His disciples, they saw His human nature. They witnessed His servant leadership, compassion, and deep humility. Even when He performed miracles, Jesus avoided drawing attention to Himself. But as the disciples faced a difficult road ahead, they needed a glimpse of His divinity

“If anyone is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will also be ashamed of him…” – Mark 8:38

25th June 2025 We live in an age where faith in the living God is often ridiculed, and where speaking of sin and repentance invites hostility. Though the claims of God’s opponents crumble under serious reflection, we still hesitate to declare our faith. Fear of offending others, or of shame and abuse, keeps many believers

“What does it profit a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul?” – Mark 8:36

24th June 2025 From the day you were born a lifelong journey began,  As you took little steps to excel as best as you can.  On foundations laid in books, schoolrooms and exams,  You rose in stature, to applause and clapping hands.    The day came when you could stand on your own two feet,

“For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and for the gospel will save it.” – Mark 8:35

23rd June 2025 Many thought Jim Elliot’s decision to go to the jungles of Ecuador to share Jesus with a violent tribe was foolish. But Jim’s famous words ring true: “He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose.” Though he was killed young, his sacrifice helped transform

“…If anyone wants to follow after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.” – Mark 8:34

22nd June 2025 Jesus was willing to forsake His own comfort to fulfill the will of the Father and accomplish the great work of redemption through the cross. But Peter, like many of us, had other plans — plans shaped by self-promotion and self-preservation. Jesus made it clear to Peter, the disciples, and the crowds

“…Get behind Me, Satan! For you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men.” – Mark 8:33

21st June 2025 When Jesus first foretold His coming death, it came as a shock to His disciples. This was not the glorious future they had imagined for their beloved Master—or for themselves. Peter, ever the outspoken leader, voiced his dismay. But Jesus rebuked him, because though Peter’s intentions seemed loving, they were contrary to
