Taking steps to be healthy is important now and at all times. Each person and family should be doing all they are able to do to stay healthy. […]
Guard your heart
Guard your heart: how can you guard your heart? We live in the flesh/body (Gal. 2:20) and in this world are surrounded by sin. So how can one protect his heart from all the garbage around him? A Biblical definition for the heart The Bible talks a lot about the heart. It is a small word […]
Practice the Presence of God
What does it mean to practice the Presence of God? God is invisible I remember when in 2012 I visited the Jewish Museum in Bucharest. I was with a friend in the city, and we had some spare time. We arrived at the destination, and for the ticket, we were offered a tour of the […]
Pray every day these things
What do you pray every day for yourself? Ever since I became a believer, I practice fellowship with God on a regular basis. And with small failures, I could say that almost every day I go into the Presence of God and learn to abide in Him. Psalm 27:8 (TLV) speaks very well of what’s […]
Have fellowship with God
Have you ever asked yourself how can someone have fellowship with God through the Bible? Not long after I became a believer, I attended a Christian youth conference at an important Church in my city. The speaker was one of the top Bible teachers in Romania and a man from whom I have learned a […]
Pray the Word of God for the people around you

Lies about prayer and about God
There are many lies about prayer among believers and non-believers too. And I know that because I had to deal with many of them over the time. I want to share with you a couple of lies I believe are common for many of us. I grew up in a solid Christian family. Moreover, my […]
Prayer changes things
Prayer is the most powerful weapon of a believer. However, why do average believers use it so rarely? And how do I know that prayer changes things and makes a huge difference? A testimony Seventy weeks ago I started a prayer movement in our Congregation. And I did that by the grace of God and […]
God wants to dwell with His people
God’s plan was always to dwell with His people. Moreover, this is what we read all over the Bible. God wants to fellowship with His creation. God wants to fellowship with you! Yes, with YOU! And for me, that is a humbling thought! Mount Everest is the Earth’s biggest mountain above the sea level. Moreover, […]
Reasons why people do not adore God
Reasons, why people do not adore God alone, are many. Romania is a Christian Orthodox country. And one of the customs in the Christian Orthodox Church is the worship of other people and so-called ‘saints.’ Therefore, in this respect, they have a similar approach to the Catholic Church. And my intention is not to criticise […]
