 '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...

 '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...

 'And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter: therefore the name of it was called Marah' (Exodus 15:23). The Isralites were on a high after the Red Sea experience and their deliverance from slavery in Egypt and Pharaoh's army. The Lord led them this way become He wanted them to realise that He was their God, their Deliverer, and their Protector. The people  murmured against Moses and God, but the Lord showed them that He was still willing to guide and protect them and be their Healer, if they would look to Him. When they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters because they were bitter, so they murmured against Moses, saying, "What shall we drink" (verse 24)? Sometimes  things happened to us in life, and we become very bitter and callous. It may be family issues; a friendship gone sour; conflicts; marriage broken down; sickness or even the death of a love one. But we need to guard against bitterness cree...
