 'Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us'
(Psalm 62:8).

God is our Rock and our Shelter in the time of storm. He is our salvation and our glory, we must seek to find refuge in him. We must trust him when we can see clearly and in times when shrouded in utter darkness. God truly deserves our confidence at all times, and we need to place our confidence in him; trusting him with all our hearts as we lean on His everlasting arm. God is always willing to hear from us, in fact, He is always seeking us out himself. We must therefore, trust him and   pour out our hearts before him; unburdened our soul to him; lay bare our hearts before him, because He is a refuge for us. Whenever you face difficulties, temptations, trials remember God is by your side. He is a present help in times of trouble. We do not know what lies ahead of us in 2021, but one thing we can be certain of, is who holds our future - our future is in God's hand. We need to trust him at all times, to cast all our burdens on him, when it is too heavy to bear. We must exercise faith in God, through Jesus Christ, and learn to cast our souls on his goodness, his faithfulness, his power, his promises and his providence. In our discouragement, doubts and fears learn to trust God at all times - in prosperity and in adversity. In Christ we have peace and hope, let us come before him and pour out our griefs, empty ourselves of our burdens. He promises to make our burdens light, as we cast our cares upon him. He is never tired of hearing from us, so let us purpose in our hearts to trust him at all times, to make him our friend and counsellor. Today, come to him confessing and pouring out your heart, allow him to work a good work in you, and create a new heart in you. To God be the glory, great things he will do for all who come to him.

Have a happy new year and 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...

 '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 ...
