'He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions' ( Psalm 107:20).

The word of God is powerful. It is alive and active and judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. It heals, saves, brings hope and change lives. 'God sent his word and healed them.' Yes my friends, God's word heals. Christ while he was earth  healed the sick, the lame, the broken hearted, and is still doing it for us today, through the power of the Holy Spirit. When Christ heals, it is not just physical healing we receive but also spiritual healing. He is concerned about the sin sick soul. He heals the guilt we carried around, the bad habits formed and the depressed soul; and all evil results of sin. When the soul is sick there is a simple cure - Christ the Word. In Matthew 8:8 we see the centurion showing his faith in the word. He said he  was not worthy that Christ should come under his roof; but He, Christ should speak the word and his servant would be healed. What faith! The healing of our souls comes from God, and is under control.   When we pray earnestly to God and put away sin from our lives, forgiving those we have wronged or who have wronged us, Christ will heals the soul. The Bible says the fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. When we live right and obey God; trust in His Word; our prayers on behalf of others are heard, the Holy Spirit renders it effectual to salvation and produce hope to the soul. God's Word heals and delivers us from destruction  - destruction of self. Our pride, selfishness, arrogance, appetite, revelling, material wealth, you name it. The word of God bring an awakening  to our souls to seek after God in Christ Jesus, so we will not  perish. When you cry out to God in your trouble, He hears and will deliver you out of destruction. So today, believe in the word of God, it testifies of God, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Have a wonderful day 🌹🌹

 'But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you' (Matthew 6:33). The Lord is our Provider and knows all that we are in need of before we even ask. We do not need to worry or fret ourselves about what we shall eat or drink. Our Father in heaven will take care of these things we need. We are told by Jesus, 'To seek first the kingdom of God.' What does that mean? It means we should lean on, and trust in the grace of Jesus Christ. We should repent of our sins and have a desire to turn away from it. We should seek to put God first in our praise to Him, in our worship of Him, to put our total trust in Him and to rely on Him  rather than ourselves or others. We need to seek Him first in our reassurance and acknowledging who He is and what He can do. We also need to seek God's righteousness by  loving our neighbors and feeding the poor and destitute, seek justice for the vulnerable. We should put God's plan and

 'I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you' (John 14:18). Jesus is awesome and full of compassion. He loved his disciples and wanted them to understand about His death and resurrection; that He would be going away for a while. He knew they would be confused and devastated, so he hastened to comfort them. He said, 'Let not your heart be troubled: Ye believe in God, believe also in me...I go to prepare a place for you...I will come again and receive you unto myself, that where I am there ye may be also' (John 14:1-3). He also promised another Comforter, that he can abide with them forever. What a merciful and loving Saviour! He went further to say he would not leave them comfortless; but will come to them. He was like a father to them, as He and the Father are one. Therefore, He promised not to leave them fatherless, or as an orphan. But will come to them. Speaking of His death and resurrection He said that in a little while the world would not see him no more

 'In your patience possess ye your souls' (Luke 21:19). In the last days we will suffer afflictions, persecutions and be reproach of men. We will be betrayed even by our own families and friends, as they hand us over to our persecutors to save themselves.  God is saying to us, that we should be patient as we bear these burdens and afflictions, by possessing peace and joy in our souls which no one  cannot take away. Our hope and life is in Christ Jesus, and when we hold steadfast unto him, allowing the Holy Spirit to dwell in us and work through us; we will let nothing disturb our peace  or distress our soul. In isolation, it may seem daunting and a difficult task to be joyful and enjoy ourselves in such dire circumstances. However, when Christ is in us the Holy Spirit will empower us and give us the endurance and perseverance to enjoy our souls. The Word of God said, "...we shall be hated of all men for my name's sake; but he that endureth to the end shall be saved&quo
