 '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...

'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...

 'Trust ye in the Lord forever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength' (Isaiah 26:4). In a time where there is so much confusion and uncertainty, God is calling us to trust Him always. He is our everlasting strength - the Rock of all ages, Jesus Christ our Lord. He is our refuge and strength in every trial we face and our everlasting Rock in every raging storms of our lives. He is our peace in the midst of perplexity and our Fortress in times of trouble who will cause all things to work together for good. All our blessings; temporal or spiritual comes from him, which give us cause to trust Him forever. Christ our solid Rock in ages past and ages to come, is our Righteousness and and in Him we find shelter in the time of storm. We can trust Him at all times and in everything.
