I, even I, am the Lord; and beside me there is no saviour' (Isaiah 43:11).

When sin came into the world, a Saviour was needed. God's love for His Children was so great, that He sent His only begotten Son Jesus Christ to die for us - sinners to save us from our sins. What an amazing God we serve! Who can love us like God? 1 John 4:1:14 tells us clearly, that the Father has sent His Son to be the Saviour of the world.
God in Christ is our Saviour! God states that He, and He alone is Jehovah and there is none beside him. We are His creation and must never have any other gods but Him. We should not make any graven images to worship as our god, because it is only Jehovah who is God, our only Saviour. It is Christ, one of the member of the Godhead who came down from heaven, live among us, and died for our sin so we could live. Through Christ, we can do all things; we in ourselves cannot do anything to help ourselves, it is Christ alone who can help us - not our friends or family; only Christ. In everytime of need, let us trust God. We need no other saviour,  but our all- sufficient Saviour, Christ. Sometimes our problems seem insurmountable, that we believe there is no way out. But Christ our Saviour is here; He is present, and willing to take our burden and make it light for us to carry. All we need to do is trust Him and give it all to Him. Knowing God our Saviour, should give us great joy; it should make us rejoice and be glad to know our Saviour, and in our rejoicing share Jesus with others whose needs are enormous and whose conflicts severe and whose perils are as terrible as ours. In times like these we need a Saviour; thank God we have a Saviour who is Christ our Lord. Today, I implore you to trust God and believe in Him as your Saviour and Redeemer. Claim the promises of God and live by them daily. Let us be comforted and strengthened in times of trouble, helping others to trust in the Almighty God, as we bring them to Jesus.

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...

 'The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him' (Lamentations 3:25). For many people, waiting is not something we like to do. Waiting can bring about stress, anxiety, irritability and impatience at some points in our lives. It can also bring joy, peace, hope and happiness. We all encounter waiting in our different ways, whether its news of a new arrival in the family where there may be complications; news of a health condition; news of a love one pulling through an illness; news of a job promotion; and for believers waiting with hope and anticipation for the coming of Lord Jesus. Here Jeremiah is saying to Israel and to us that, "The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him." What is the benefit of waiting on the Lord? The Lord will renew our strength, he will not allow us to be weary or faint (Isaiah 40:31). He will be good to all who wait upon him. The Lord  will also be good to us when we search for him. W...

 'Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in the present world;' (Titus 2:12). The grace of God brings salvation to all men, seeking a change in our conduct and attitude towards God and one another. It advocates a turning away from sin, and helps the believer in Christ to reject sinful desires and refrain from ungodly living. The grace of God teaches us to avoid behaviours that are sinful and will not enhance our lives; but it is to move us towards right behaviour and right thinking. Paul was instructing Titus to teach   boldly and with authority the conduct and behaviour God expects from His people. To encourage right thinking and behaviour by them living soberly, upright and godly lives. We are also encouraged as Believers in Christ to do the same. We must allow ourselves to be taught by the great Teacher, Jesus Christ, our Lord, through the guidance of the Holy Spirit, as we search the Scriptures daily an...
