The Edge

Today expect God’s favour

‘Surely, Lord, You bless the righteous; You surround them with Your favour as with a shield.’ Psalm 5:12 NIV The Bible says that God will surround the righteous with favour. If you are trusting in the finished work of Christ, God sees you as ‘righteous’ (see Romans 3:22). So, you qualify; you can pray, ‘Lord, I need your favour in this job interview,’ or ‘in selling this house’, or ‘in making...

Governed by Christ’s love for us

‘For the love of Christ compels us,’ 2 Corinthians 5:14 CSB The most powerful incentive to overcoming sin is not our love for Christ, but His love for us. Even with the best of intentions, our love for Him is subject to fluctuations. Jesus said to the church in Ephesus, ‘But I have this against you, that you have left your first love.’ (Revelation 2:4 NASB) He said to the church in Laodicea that...

How to conquer the fear of failing

‘Though they stumble, they will never fall, for the Lord holds them by the hand.’ Psalm 37:24 NLT Every opportunity in life comes with two things: the possibility of succeeding, and the possibility of failing. When you reach the end of your life, your greatest regrets won’t be over your failures, but the opportunities you failed to seize because you were afraid of failing. So here are some...

Grandfather’s mistake became grandson’s miracle

‘They suddenly saw a group of Ishmaelites traveling from Gilead to Egypt.’ Genesis 37:25 GNT If Abraham and Sarah had been willing to wait a little longer, Isaac would have been born and the promise of God fulfilled. But they became impatient and, as a result, Ishmael was born. One of the names given to God in Scripture is ‘Redeemer’, because He can redeem our mistakes and turn them into...

The best is yet to come

‘Boaz begot Obed by Ruth.’ Matthew 1:5 NKJV Humanly speaking, the chances of a Gentile like Ruth marrying a wealthy Jew like Boaz were less than zero, because the law of Moses forbade it. ‘An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter the assembly of the Lord; even to the tenth generation none of his descendants shall enter the assembly of the Lord forever.’ (Deuteronomy 23:3 NKJV) If ever a door...

What the Bible teaches us about money

‘Now about the collection for the Lord’s people.’ 1 Corinthians 16:1 NIV When a recession hit Jerusalem, Paul asked the believers at Corinth to give offerings to meet this need: ‘Now about the collection for the Lord’s people: do what I told the Galatian churches to do. On the first day of every week, each one of you should set aside a sum of money in keeping with your income, saving it up, so...

Embracing uncertainty and following God

‘“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways,” declares the Lord.’ Isaiah 55:8 NASB A part of us feels as if something is spiritually wrong with us when we experience uncertainty. But that is precisely what Jesus promised us when we are born of the Spirit and start following Him. ‘The wind blows wherever it wants. Just as you can hear the wind but can’t tell where it comes...

Change your routine

‘I will lead them in paths they have not known.’ Isaiah 42:16 NKJV Variety is an important element of any system. In physical exercise, for example, routines eventually become useless. If you exercise the same way each time you work out, your muscles begin adapting and eventually stop developing. You have to change your routine. You have to disorient them. This is also true spiritually. Mark...

Fear is the enemy of growth

‘Tell the children of Israel to go forward.’ Exodus 14:15 NKJV If you want to grow, you need to get over any fear you may have of making mistakes. Professor Warren Bennis stated, ‘A mistake is simply another way of doing things.’ So, expect to make mistakes along the way, and embrace them as a sign that you are going in the right direction. With the Red Sea in front of them and Pharaoh’s...
