'Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear' (Hebrews 12:28).
Jesus is the way, the truth and the life. We cannot go to Father except through The Son. Christ's death and resurrection means eternal life for all who trust and believe in Him. He is the One who offers salvation to mankind; because He is the means to our salvation and also the rewarder. Under the Old covenant, the blood of bulls and goats were offered up as the atoning sacrifice, which was a type of Christ, who was to come. It didn't offer easy access to God, as the new covenant under grace. The new covenant offered something better, something beyond rituals and earthly needs. By faith in Christ, we are now apart of a kingdom that cannot be moved, and an inheritance kept for us in heaven. In Christ we have peace in God, a peace that passeth all our understanding. As we cling to that old rugged cross, which is despised by the world, we must have hope in Christ, our Saviour, who died on that cross to save us. Let us praise God with prayers of gratitude and thanksgiving for all the wondrous things He has done for us. We also need to lift up our Saviour in praise and gratitude, for bearing the shame of the cross and all our sins, to save us. To be truly thankful and grateful that our hope of eternity depended on what He did for us. Let us therefore, hold fast with favour the privileges afforded us to be accepted into Christ's unshakable kingdom - the kingdom of grace. For us to granted this privilege we have to accept this wonderful gift of salvation in Christ by faith. Let us hold fast the doctrine of grace as we serve God in Spirit and in truth, by faith in Christ, with reverence and godly fear.
Have a wonderful day 🌹🌹

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
