 'Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God?'
(Psalm 77:13).

The God of Creation is more than worthy of our praise and worship. There is absolutely no one like our God. He is Omnipotent, Omniscient and Omnipresent; He  demonstrated His amazing love to all his people, when he came down to earth in the form of his Son to redeem us, by his blood. Who then is like our God? His ways through his creation, his providence and his grace are beyond anything we could ever imagine. He is holy, just and righteous. From generation to generation, His people can attest to the awesome and mighty power he has manifested among them. So when you cannot trace His ways, trust Him nonetheless; because His way is in holiness. David recognised that God's way is in the sanctuary; when he saw the prosperity the wicked and that there was no band in their death and their strength was  firm, he was envious. But when he went into the sanctuary of the Lord, he was comforted as he got a clear understanding of their end. (See Psalm 73:3,4,17). We too can find comfort amidst our trials and troubles in the sanctuary of the Lord. God's presence is there in his sanctuary and He will help us to understand clearly his great work of grace and salvation to all. The poor and destitute; those who are troubled from every side can find comfort and hope as they enter into God's holiness.  The presence of God will illuminate his sanctuary and his light will be seen much clearer. This should give us confidence in God and strengthen our faith in the true and living God. He knows the end from the beginning and in His holiness lies all the answers. There is no one who is comparable to our God. He reigns supremely over all; He is superior to all other beings and he is Sovereign God. God is holy and his way is holiness. Even when we cannot comprehend it, let us be confident and trust that his dealings are righteous. Draw near to God and look to him for sustenance and with humble hearts worship and obey 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

 '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
