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...

'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...

 '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 ...
