 days' (John 12:48).

Faith in Jesus Christ, the Son of God is paramount in the salvation of man. He was the incarnate Word of God and the fulfilment of God's written Word. He became flesh and dwell among men, as the embodiment of the eternal God, through whom all things were made. He came to save us from the bondage of sin and to restore us back to the Father. We receive the free gift of salvation offered by God, through the blood of Jesus Christ, and can be attained when we accept by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, that he is the Son of God. Christ said that if anyone hear his words and believe not, he doesn't judge them, because the reason he came was not to judge the world, but to save the world (see John 12:47). He went on to say, that all who reject him and his message will be judged on the day of Judgement by this same truth he had spoken. In other words, "I am here to save you; to establish a means of salvation for all who will believe on me, not to judge you, but a day is coming when you will be judged on these same truth." For those who reject Him and his message will not have any part in that salvation. But will be judged by the same "words" that He has spoken; on the day of judgement at his Second Coming. All generations, past and present who did not believe in Christ and had rejected Him will be lost forever. It is Christ alone, that provides the means of salvation and if we dont believe in him, we don't believe in God; if we reject Christ we also reject God, who has sent him and therefore we will have no part with God. Christ's mission was to come and save his people. He came in the form of man, so he could be more relatable in seeking to save us. Let us not be blinded by the truth of God, and be deaf to His Word, lest we fall in the same trap of those who had rejected the Saviour. He is now in the process of judging the world as our righteous Judge and will be coming back to this earth to vindicate his people and give of his just reward. Let us keep trusting and believing in Jesus. It will be worth it in the end!

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...

 '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. To give us victory over sin and temptation; to bear us up under affliction and to help us withstand the spiritual attacks that may come our way. It is a good thing to put our confidence in the Lor...

'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...
