September 27, 2007 How did Jesus "equip" his disciples for powerful work by taking away their material possessions?
He gave them authority to cast out demons but ordered them not to take any material possesion so that they build faith and not depend on their material possesion.

August 23, 2007 Faith allowed power to flow from Jesus even without his initiative. What is faith?
Faith is the medium God gave us believers to demonestrate his power.If we donot have faith, we are no more believers and we won't see the things he does in our lives.He ordered that we recieve our inheritance through faith,it is the rule of God.

August 22, 2007 Why did the people ask Jesus to leave their region after they heard about the pigs?
They didn't realise the real purpose that Jesus was passing by,eventhough he liberated the demon possesed man,they were more concerned about their properties,the pigs,rather than the power and good deeds of the Lord.

August 03, 2007 What does the contrast between the small seed and huge bush teach you about the kingdom of God?
The word is few but it does huge things,changes the lives of people,and the kingdom doesn't just appear out of nowhere but it grows from time to time .

July 24, 2007 What kind of ground is your heart for receiving the seed of God`s word (hard path, rocky soil, thorny ground or good soil)
What is keeping me from not responding to the word is thorn which is the cares of this age, deceitefulness of riches and the lusts of other things which make the word unfruiteful.In this success driven world, you are usually tempted to achieve more and feel like you are missing something if you you don`t make much effort.In the meantime we tend to forget that our first task is to know God and serve Him.He said not to worry too much about worldly things cos the ungodly also worry about these things, but we should remind ourselves to seek His kingdom first, cos that`s what pleases Him.
