18 December 2025 Word by Senior Pastor, Pastor Darien Choo

Today’s Inspiration: “Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.”Matthew 5:5 NIV Meekness is the image of Christ. It is not a weakness as the world sees it but godliness with contentment is great gain. Wisdom’s instruction is to fear the Lord, and humility comes before honor. Proverbs 15:33 How can we inherit the earth? It is by building an intimate relationship with God. When we have good relationship with God, we also build strong relationships with our love ones.

Kingdom success is about relationship and not riches. Those who are wise and successful are not those who don’t make mistakes but rather are those who learn from their own and others, so that they become wiser, relational and humble. Prideful people never learn and keep hurting people around them, repeating foolishness. Before a downfall the heart is haughty, but humility comes before honor. Proverbs 18:12 Learn to build strong relationships. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves. Philippians 2:3

Prayer: O Lord my God, let me be lesser and you be greater. Teach me with your word and spirit to know you personally, intimately and deeply. Lead me to love my neighbour as myself and learn how to love you more daily, for love covers a multitude of sins. Break every pride and anguish. Let your grace abounds and show me a more excellent way to build a strong family for Christ, in Jesus Name, Amen.
