 Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else'
(Isaiah 45:22).

Whether one wants to believe in God or not, the fact is, He is God the Creator, Redeemer and Sustainer. He is Omnipotent, Omniscient and Omnipresent, and there is none  comparable to Him. He is a loving and just God and our Saviour, there is none beside Him. Israel was a chosen nation to bring the gospel of salvation to the heathen nations around. They were to be the light to the Gentiles and to glorify God in their presence. But they failed to obey God's commands, and as a result broke the covenant relationship with Him. However, God in his mercy and grace never give up His plan to redeem man; because of his love for us and His promise to Abraham and his descendants. Jesus came as was prophesied but the Jews rejected Him as the Messiah and the Gentiles were called to put away their idols and evil practices and look unto Jesus, and be saved; because He was God and there was none else.  Today, all who believed in Jesus as the Son of God and the Saviour of the world are urged to do the same. We are to turn to the Saviour who came and died for us that we may be saved. We are to preach the gospel to the ends of the earth, so people may believe in Jesus and be saved. Let us turn from our idols and evil surmising and look to Jesus, acknowledging him as the Sovereign Lord. For those who reject Christ and the many calls to repentance, one day God's wrath will be poured out on them ending in their destruction. Our Lord is soon to come, where at His name every knee shall bow to the King of kings, and every tongue shall confess that He is indeed Lord and give homage to him. If you hear the voice of Jesus speaking to your heart today, harken unto and turn to Him, he is the Lord and will save you; there is none else.

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

 '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

 'Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still' (Psalm 4:4). God knows everything about us, because he is God, our Creator and there is nothing that can be hidden from him. He knows the heart and the intents of the heart; Our thoughts, emotions, desires and motives, whether they be good or evil. He knows the godly from the ungodly, and have set apart those who are godly for himself, and will hear when they call unto him (verse 3). We are all called to be in a right relationship with God. Those who accept this call should have daily communion with Him through the study of His Word, prayer and supplications, allowing the Holy Spirit access in their hearts, that they might not wilfully sin against Him. We need to search our hearts daily and be silent before God as we contemplate his grace and his mercy towards us, and He will reveal Himself to us. When our enemies seek to do us harm, or people speak lies about us, simply look to Jesus and trus
