'Let not your heart be troubled: Ye believe in God believe also in Me' (John 14:1).

Is your heart troubled? Is the things of this world making you weary? God's message to you today, is to let go of you burdens, cast your cares on Him, the One who loves and cares for you. Christ can be trusted to speak these words, "Let not your heart be troubled." Only He can do something about your troubled heart. He said it and we can believe it, because He is our Saviour, Redeemer and friend; who has gone to prepare a place for us so we can be with Him for ever. God wants to comfort our hearts, all we need to do is believe in Him. His disciples hearts were crushed, their hope that Jesus would be king and release them from the oppression of Rome was shattered; and with the realisation that their Saviour was going to be taken from them. They were confused and didn't know what to do. But Jesus comforted them with these words: "Let not your heart be troubled: Believe in God believe also in Me. In My Father's house are many mansions; If it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a table a place for you... I will come again, and receive you unto Myself; that where I am, there you will be also." Christ is speaking the same words to us today. Will you trust Him? The disciples went to Calvary still perplexed and confused, as they watch their Saviour died on that cruel cross. But unspeakable joy came on resurrection morning. Jesus rose from the dead!! It is the same joy we should experience, knowing Christ's victory over death and the grave means we too will have victory when we believe in Him. We live in a world of stress and strain and the pressures of life can be overwhelming. But we have the precious assurance of Christ's victory and the hope it gives us. As He overcame the world and Satan, by faith we too will be overcomers in Him. This is our blessed hope. Praise God!

Have a wonderful day 🌹🌹

 Devotional 'The Lord is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed' (Psalm 28:8). The Lord our God is the glory of our strength, and in His name we shall rejoice all the day. The Lord is our strength, and the saving strength of His anointed. It is through Christ our anointed that all our blessings come to us. Here we see David, who is a type of our Lord Jesus, praising God. What about you? Christ had done much for us and has achieved full salvation for us, therefore, praise Him! We, like Israel are encouraged that the Lord is our Strength and salvation. When we seek to be in a  relationship with God, He will protect us from our enemies and save us from the crutches of Satan. Just as how Satan attempts to destroy Christ many times, whilst he was on earth, God  saved him and will do the same for us. Christ died to save us all, but it is those who trust Him and have a saving relationship with him that will spend eternity with. He is our High Priest, and J...

 'I protest by your rejoicing  which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily' (1 Corinthians 15:31). Christ our Lord came and died for each and everyone to save us from the bondage of sin. He lived on this earth, ministered to the needs of all who He encountered; He was crucified, and resurrected and is now interceding for us, as our High Priest in Heaven. What if there was no resurrection? What would be the implications for God's people? The preaching of the gospel would be a lie, our faith would be worthless and we would all have remained in our sin. Paul is saying, there would be no cause to his dying daily, or for any one who believed and accept Jesus as their personal Saviour to die daily. Paul was expecting death at any time for Christ's sake. He was constantly in peril of his life, he encountered extreme sufferings and was beset with death. He was willing to die at anytime and in any way for Christ's sake. He did not count his life dear unto himself, but...

 'The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing' (Zephaniah 3 17). What an amazing and wonderful God we serve, who is mighty to save. The Lord our God is with us and is mighty to save. He will take great delight in us and will quiet us with his love, and also rejoice over us with singing. We didn't have to do anything for God to love us, he did because he created us and we are His. He created us and loves us just as we are. Even when we did not deserve it, the Lord took delight in us. What an awesome God! He is present in the midst of us, loving and caring for us. He protects and defend us; died to save us from sin, so we can have life and have it more abundant. He is mighty to save us from fears; our enemies and the bondage of sin and death. We all need a Saviour, Christ the Lord, who is the cure for our problems and the antidote to sin. Christ has already won ...
