'Be thou exalted, Lord, in thine own strength: So will we sing and praise thy power' ( Psalm 21:13).

God our Creator is always worthy of our praise. It is for that purpose we have been created, to exalt and glorify Him. He  deserve our highest praise all the day long, when we rise in the morning until we go to sleep at night. We have a duty to God, which is to fear Him and keep His commandments. Let that resonate with us for a moment! Christ is our solid foundation - our Rock, and we must safely trust in Him, for the name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous flee into it , and are safe. The Lord is also our defender  and our strength; He manifest His power, providence and wisdom; His grace and mercy and longsuffering. Isn't His power worthy of our praise? This world of sin and the evil surmising ; where the law of God has been trampled upon and God's people been persecuted; will see God standing up for His people who will have victory in Jesus; while the wicked will be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of God. God will vindicate His people and it will be followed by rejoicing and praise to the Most High God. The divine power of God ought to inspire us with joy and elevate us to celebrate in songs of praise and thansgiving. God's love is amazing! Let us reflect on the  astonishing love of God our Father, and the gift of His Son for the redemption of our souls - the epitome of His amazing love for us. God display such love and grace to a dying world by redemption of His Son; He is indeed worthy of exaltation, honour and praise. God has exalted Christ in His own strength, so we are able to sing and praise His power. It's not man's success that matters, but  the glory of our soon coming King; this should lead us to praise and worship Him. In Christ we are overcomers as God has promised. Let us be faithful!

Have wonderful day and a bless weekend🌹🌹

 '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...

 'For his merciful kindness is great towards us: and the truth of the Lord endureth forever. Praise the Lord' (Psalm 117:2). The most important thing in life is having a relationship with God. It is through this relationship that we get to know our Maker and experience His love and His truth. When we recognised what God has truly done for us; of his great love and his faithfulness towards us; it should lead us to give Him praise and extol His holy name. God is kind to all his creatures and merciful to us as sinners, therefore, we know his merciful kindness is great towards us. In Christ, God has shown his mercy mixed with kindness, in giving up his Son to save us from our sins. For even though our sins be great, God's mercy is even greater than the sin. God's truth endures forever as his promises are sure. He is not slack concerning His promises to His people. He is trustworthy and faithful. The faithfulness and truth of God given in his promises never fails; nor does t...

'Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead , yet shall he live;' (John 11:25). The story of Lazarus is a well known one in the Bible. He and his sisters Martha and Mary were friends of Jesus, who loved them. Lazarus became sick and died, and after four days Jesus raised him from the dead. This was more for benefits of those around including His disciples, so that they may truly believe that God had sent him.  He was speaking  with Martha who was more focused on the telling Jesus the problem, than demanding a specific solution. We too can be so focus on the problems we faced, that we forget that God is  much bigger that the problem and is our solution to them. When Jesus told her Lazarus would rise again, she understood it to mean he would live again someday. But Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life: he that believes in me, though he was dead, yet shall he live." Christ at this time, was able...
