 'No man hath seen God at anytime. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us' ( 1 John 4:12).

God is a spirit and no one has seen him at anytime. His Son, Jesus Christ, who is in the bosom of the Father, is the One who reveal Him to us. Moses wanted to see God, and as faithful a servant that he was, he could only see the back of God. He told Moses that he could not see His face, because no one can see His face and live (Exodus 33:20). We have never seen God, but by faith we love Him because He first loved us and manifested His love through His Son who died for us. It behoves us to love one another whom we can see. The Bible says, if we say we love God who we have never seen and not love those we can see, we are liars. Paul tells us, that God is immortal and lives in a light so bright that no human can approach him. No human eyes have ever seen Him, nor ever will ( 1 Timothy 6:16). What is so wonderfully amazing, is that God's love allows humanity to see Him through the actions of His Children. Those who seek to love and experience walking in His love. God's love is made complete in us and He gives us all we need to live for Him and to love others. His perfect love is sufficient for us as His grace is. In our world today, God is manifesting Himself through the body of Christ, which is the Church. We are called to abide in Him, rest in Him and to live godly in Christ.  As we abide in Him and He in us, and submitting our will to the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit will then transform us into likeness of  Christ. Let us rest, remain and abide in Christ, so the love of God is perfected in us. We will not fail to love one another as Christ loves us. Let us allow the invisible God to dwell in us and perfect His love in us so we can become channel of His love to each other.

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...

 'The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him' (Lamentations 3:25). For many people, waiting is not something we like to do. Waiting can bring about stress, anxiety, irritability and impatience at some points in our lives. It can also bring joy, peace, hope and happiness. We all encounter waiting in our different ways, whether its news of a new arrival in the family where there may be complications; news of a health condition; news of a love one pulling through an illness; news of a job promotion; and for believers waiting with hope and anticipation for the coming of Lord Jesus. Here Jeremiah is saying to Israel and to us that, "The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him." What is the benefit of waiting on the Lord? The Lord will renew our strength, he will not allow us to be weary or faint (Isaiah 40:31). He will be good to all who wait upon him. The Lord  will also be good to us when we search for him. W...

 '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...
