 '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...

'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 ...
