 'Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite'
(Psalm 147:5).

The Lord our God, the Saviour and Creator, is  great and powerful. He is a great King above all Kings and His understanding is infinite. As human beings, with our finite minds we cannot think to fathom His wisdom or measure his knowledge. God is a God of possibilities. All things are possible with Him, even the things that are impossible to us. He is the same God who put the stars in place and hung the earth in space. He is able to count all the stars in the galaxy and has a name for them all. He created every thing in the earth out of nothing and formed man from the dust of the earth, then breathe His breath into him and he because a living soul. What a great and powerful God we serve. With our finite minds we can never understand the infinite knowledge or wisdom of God. He us infinite in time, in love and in space. His understanding is unsearchable and is love immeasurable. If we truly understand the goodness of God and reflect on His greatness and power, we would revere and adore Him. We would praise and adore him day and night. Our Lord did not just created all things, He sustained everything he had made. He didn't leave His creation by chance and said, "I created you do now go and take care of yourselves." No! That would have been chaotic.  He is a God of order and ordered all things in heaven and in earth. How great is the power of Our Lord and his understanding is infinite. We can see the goodness of God all around us and even been manifested in our lives. Let us take Jesus at his word, acknowledge his great power to help and save us in all we encounter through life's journey. Let us appreciate and be thankful for His creative, sustaining and redemptive power, as follow Him. Let us acknowledge and give praise for His infinite wisdom and understanding.

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...

'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 ...
