 'Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.
(Psalm 145:2).

Is God worthy of our praise? Of course, He does.  He is God, the Creator and our Father in heaven. He is Almighty, All Powerful, and All Knowing and the God of love and our peace. We must praise Him for His goodness, His providence, His Sovereignty and Kingship. We ought to thank God for sending Jesus, His Son to die for us and for giving us the insight into the plan of salvation; and where we are going as a result of the sacrifice made on our behalf. Let us bless the name of Jesus and give him praise. Every day is a new day, whatever our situation or our circumstances during the day, we should be grateful to God and bless and praise Him, give all glory and honour to His holy name. With Joy and pride we can exalt Him as our God. Every day we should seek to draw nearer to God, to seek His face and favour; to bless Him as we experience His grace and mercy. It should propel us to praise and worship Him for ever and ever. We should open ourselves to Him each morning in praise, prayer, thanksgiving and the study of His Word. We should reflect on what it means to have God in our lives; to reflect on His goodness and love and give him thanks. We must bless and give Him thanks for his marvellous works; for Jesus Christ, our Saviour and for the guidance of His Holy Spirit; for the hope of eternity with him. Our peace comes from God, and through our Lord, Jesus Christ, we should look to Him as the Giver of all our perfect gifts. Let us bless God every day for His mercies, for His fresh supplies of grace that comes from the fullness of Christ to whom all grace is given. Let us praise His name for ever and ever as long as God lends us breath, and with hope, of the world to come with Jesus and the host of heaven, to continue in praise.

Have a wonderful day and a blessed weekend 🌹🌹

 '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

 'I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you' (John 14:18). Jesus is awesome and full of compassion. He loved his disciples and wanted them to understand about His death and resurrection; that He would be going away for a while. He knew they would be confused and devastated, so he hastened to comfort them. He said, 'Let not your heart be troubled: Ye believe in God, believe also in me...I go to prepare a place for you...I will come again and receive you unto myself, that where I am there ye may be also' (John 14:1-3). He also promised another Comforter, that he can abide with them forever. What a merciful and loving Saviour! He went further to say he would not leave them comfortless; but will come to them. He was like a father to them, as He and the Father are one. Therefore, He promised not to leave them fatherless, or as an orphan. But will come to them. Speaking of His death and resurrection He said that in a little while the world would not see him no more

 'In your patience possess ye your souls' (Luke 21:19). In the last days we will suffer afflictions, persecutions and be reproach of men. We will be betrayed even by our own families and friends, as they hand us over to our persecutors to save themselves.  God is saying to us, that we should be patient as we bear these burdens and afflictions, by possessing peace and joy in our souls which no one  cannot take away. Our hope and life is in Christ Jesus, and when we hold steadfast unto him, allowing the Holy Spirit to dwell in us and work through us; we will let nothing disturb our peace  or distress our soul. In isolation, it may seem daunting and a difficult task to be joyful and enjoy ourselves in such dire circumstances. However, when Christ is in us the Holy Spirit will empower us and give us the endurance and perseverance to enjoy our souls. The Word of God said, "...we shall be hated of all men for my name's sake; but he that endureth to the end shall be saved&quo
