'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 🌹🌹

 'Trust ye in the Lord forever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength' (Isaiah 26:4). In a time where there is so much confusion and uncertainty, God is calling us to trust Him always. He is our everlasting strength - the Rock of all ages, Jesus Christ our Lord. He is our refuge and strength in every trial we face and our everlasting Rock in every raging storms of our lives. He is our peace in the midst of perplexity and our Fortress in times of trouble who will cause all things to work together for good. All our blessings; temporal or spiritual comes from him, which give us cause to trust Him forever. Christ our solid Rock in ages past and ages to come, is our Righteousness and and in Him we find shelter in the time of storm. We can trust Him at all times and in everything. To give us victory over sin and temptation; to bear us up under affliction and to help us withstand the spiritual attacks that may come our way. It is a good thing to put our confidence in the Lor...

 '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...

 'But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident for, the just shall live by faith' ( Galatians 3:11). Paul in speaking to the Galatians, admonished them not to listen to heresies, that would jeopardise their relationship with Christ. The same message is relevant to us today as well. Paul here was saying, following the law cannot save us. It is our trust in God and having  faith in his Son, Jesus Christ, that can make us  right with God. That was evident, that the just shall live by faith, not by our own works. It was Christ who had redeemed us from the curse of the law by the shedding of his precious blood. We are save and made right by God's grace through faith in Christ Jesus. Abraham was justified, because He believed God  and was accounted righteous. We who are seeds of Abraham, will receive the blessings of Abraham by believing in Christ by faith and not works. The Promised blessings of Abraham by God, wasn't just for him alone, but ...
