 'Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth' (Psalm
124:8).

It is important to note who God is. He is Elohim, our Creator, Sustainer and Judge. He is our Provider, Protector Deliverer, and our Comforter. The three in one concept of a loving Father, Son and Holy Spirit working in unity for the good of humanity. The Psalmist says, "Our help is in the name of the Lord..." Can you imagine! If it wasn't for the Lord on our side, where would we be, what would be our end? When we feel overwhelmed, distressed,  or going through trying and difficult times turn to Yahweh our Deliverer and help; the Self-sufficient and eternal God. The Lord who is our help will strengthen and sustain us by His power, in our difficulties. There is tremendous power in the name of Jesus, the maker of heaven and earth, and our help comes in his name. In the name of Jesus we can do all things. His power is beyond anything we could ever imagine. If you're feel unsafe, threatened, despondent anxious or in danger, just call out the name of Jesus and He will help and deliver you. He is our Strong Tower where the righteous can run to and be saved. The Lord never go back on His promises and will faithfully preserve his chosen people. He did it for Israel and He will do it for us, who has believed in Him. When we trust in the Lord, we will experience His loving care, even amidst the snares of the Devil and we can rest assured in His loving arms that he will take care of us. Let us put our trust and confidence in the name of the Lord, because He is our  salvation and our help comes from Him only. He will do more for us than we are able to ask or think, because He is our Creator and there is power in His name. Let us be thankful and praise the name of the Lord who has not left us as prey to our enemies but has rescued us and set us free from the bondage of death, as we experience his mercy and grace. Let us trust the Lord for the future as we express confidence in His ability to help us.

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
