 'The Lord is in his holy temple, the Lord's throne is in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men'
 (Psalm 11:4).

We are living and dwelling in a  broken world, full of temptations, trials and tribulations. Despite all of these situations that might affect us throughout our daily lives, we can be confident in the Lord. He cares for us in our afflictions and bestowed upon us his mercy and grace. Wherein we can find comfort and strength in our brokenness and weakness. As we trust in the Lord we will discover that he is faithful, longsuffering, patient, trustworthy, full of goodness and compassion. Let us trust Him and hold fast to His wonderful truth, and rejoice in him as we find shelter from the storms of life. No matter how raging the storm is, God's eyes are upon us and he will never let us down.  Our Lord is in his holy temple and his throne is in heaven. He is closely watching the acts and activities of each and everyone of us. He is near us in every situation,  and his eyes behold every action displayed. Let us never forget that He is our Judge and that He brings righteous judgement upon wicked and evil men, as he thwart their plans and catch them out at their own game. He is the Judge of heaven and earth and his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men. He reads the character of all of us that stands guilty before him, separating the dross from pure metal, as he tries and examines our motives and actions. Let us trust in Jesus our Lord and Judge and be confident in him as he watches over us. Let us lift up our eyes above our circumstances and place our confidence in him.

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...
