 '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).

For everyone who accept Jesus  Christ as their personal Saviour he rejoices over you with singing. Isn't that amazing? God our Creator is also in the midst of us. He is the  Almighty God, and of such he is mighty to save His people from the curse of sin and death; to save us from our fears and those who seek to harm us. All we need to do is to come to him as we are; wretched, sinful and needy. God loves you just as you are and promises to calm your fears with His love and to rejoice over you with joy as you come to him. He takes delight in His children and offers us a sense of peace. His love is unconditional and does not expect anything in return. He loves us first that we may know how to love him. When we experience His love, we will truly love him with all our heart, with all our soul and with all our mind. This will lead us also to genuinely love one another. We will love Him because of who He is, not what He can do for us, which will compel us to respond in obedience and love. Christ the Son of God came and dwell among us. He is in our midst and is our mighty and victorious warrior; our protector and defender; our provider and the cure for all our problems; he is the remedy for our fears and the antidote for sin. Hallelujah! Praise the Lord! Upon all who trust in his name, he delights to bring to salvation and to pour out eternal life so we can have life more abundantly. The Lord rejoices over all of us who believe in him and takes delight in us as we trust in His word and abide in His wonderful love. God's desire is for all to diligently seek him, to find rest in him and be save. Let us draw near to him, and with the aid of the Holy Spirit keep our minds stayed on him that we can find perfect peace in him; that we can also find rest in him and abide in His truth. Remember He is a God of love, of peace, of holiness, and find it a delight to rejoice over us with singing. Today if you're experiencing God's amazing love, reach out to someone and let them know how much God loves and cares for them.   How much He wants to save them!

Have a wonderful day🌹🌹

Devotional - 03rd Jan 2022

 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...

'Work at living in peace with everyone, and work at living a holy life, for those who are not holy will not see the Lord' (Hebrews 12:14).  God is a God of peace and of such wants His Children to seek peace between themselves and others. We are also encouraged to pursue a life of holiness, which can only happen through having a relationship with God and being empowered by the influence of the Holy Spirit. As we turn the eyes of our heart upon Jesus, fixing the thoughts of our minds on Him, that His peace, like a river flows into our heart, and His holiness becomes a reality in our life as we consecrate it to Him. We are called to be holy in our thoughts, in words and our deeds; but cannot achieve it by our own efforts.  W e must be consecrated in body, soul, and mind, but not of our own strength. It is only through the empowering of the Holy Spirit that we can pursue holiness and be at peace with each other. Without the Holy Spirit leading us to live a life of ho...
