Keeping a thankful heart in the midst of turmoil

Posted by Edison Macusi on Thursday, December 1, 2011, In : Word for the week 
Man is hardly thankful to God. If man had ever been thankful to God, he could have always followed and searched for truth. He could have been more thankful to Him than the birds that chirp everyday thanking God for a new day, a new meal and for the life it has. All of creation are thanking God for King David said, “Let all that has breath praise the Lord!” But we are hardly thankful to Him, even today that the pressures of living have become even greater and the economic systems of the wo...

Trusting the Lord with all our heart

Posted by Edison Macusi on Monday, November 28, 2011, In : Word for the week 
Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; 
In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths. 
Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the LORD and depart from evil. 
It will be health to your flesh, And strength to your bones. Proverbs 3:5-8 (NKJV)


Trust is earned. People can love each other, they can give gifts, they can hug and even kiss but the lack of trust could easily distort this love. To be a people of faith, we need to trust God. W...

A heart ablazed for God part 8: Humility

Posted by Edison Macusi on Monday, March 15, 2010, In : Word for the week 

“Farewell my brother,” I bid him. Tears welled from my eyes and started flowing. I sobbed. I could not keep my heart from grieving knowing what awaited him in that dungeon. What could have happened had John kept his mouth shut? Could he have live a little bit longer? Could he have disciple more men? Those questions were coming to me like rushing waters. But I bet, it is not the will of the Lord that this man should live the way I thought of him. Even Paul could have lived to be 90 ...

A heart ablazed for God part 7: The Witness of Light

Posted by Edison Macusi on Monday, March 8, 2010, In : Word for the week 

Almost all of us were swept with fear when our friend and brother bid us to go. He said that his work is finished and the time to depart draws near. He had been as prayerful as during the first time I saw him. He did not pray with any structure nor did he pray with highfaluting words, it was as if Jesus was conversing with His Father again. He prayed for his disciples to be strong and to know the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. He prayed for strength, joy and the cour...

A heart ablazed for God part 6: John’s testimony

Posted by Edison Macusi on Monday, March 1, 2010, In : Word for the week 

Yesterday was different. The clouds seem to have their shining luster, stirred as if brought nearer into the clouds of heaven, full of stars. The Jordan river was not full and overflowing at the day nor it flooded its banks. This is the place where many come to refresh themselves and gather some water for washing their camels and donkey. Few have ever imagined that this River would still continue its coarse running for more than 4,000 years feeding Israel and the Jordan valley for the neede...

A heart ablazed for God part 5: The lamb of God

Posted by Edison Macusi on Sunday, February 28, 2010, In : Word for the week 
John spoke many exhortations to the people and was the first one to preach the gospel to them. His sermons are clearly related and had the same flavor as what the Lord preached later before the congregation. And he said to them, “Collect no more than what you have been ordered to.”

Some soldiers were questioning him, saying, “And what about us, what shall we do?” And he said to them, “Do not take money from anyone by force, or accuse anyone falsely, and be content with your wag...

A heart ablazed for God part 4: Brood of vipers

Posted by Edison Macusi on Sunday, February 28, 2010, In : Word for the week 
The words of the Lord were like fire that cleansed all darkness in my heart. We were still in the wilderness and His words are cleansing me over and over again. This could be the reason He has also said that faith comes by hearing and hearing the Word of the Lord. A clean heart is a powerful heart, able to listen and obey the Lord without any reserve. Some people speak about serving God, others do serve God but only those whose service are genuine and full of joy will truly get reward....

A heart ablazed for God part 3: The wildman

Posted by Edison Macusi on Sunday, February 28, 2010, In : Word for the week 
As I was about to get out of the Jordan meeting where John was doing his crusade among the people, the Lord caught me up to show me where He had trained this man. “Lord, you have anointed your great prophet with such power that few sinners could even resist.” “You had heard John’s fiery sermons but do not look at his fire, look above where his fire comes from. Come and I will show you some things.” Then the Lord took me in the desert wilderness of Judea where only the fox or v...

A heart ablazed for God part 1: Introduction

Posted by Edison Macusi on Saturday, February 6, 2010, In : Word for the week 

I have promised to our guru readers last year that I am working on a new book release apart from the first one which you have already read, “Awaking the church into her glorious destiny.” Writing has not been my craft in High School and college though I wrote a lot of letters to my love ones and especially to my wife. To prove that, I have been part of the TNHS Newsette since my second year in High School but for my three years of stay, I had never been given the chance to go t...
