 'The Lord will give strength unto his people; the Lord will bless his people with peace'
(Psalm 29:11).

God the All-knowing One, knows all about our dealings, for there is nothing we can hide from him. He knows our thoughts and actions even before we know ourselves, yet He is willing to come to our rescue when we fall, or in difficulties situations. He  speaks to our hearts in different ways, in order to reach us. It may be through a close friend or family; by reading His Word; through prayer; through a song; and even through people we do not know. He also use the Holy Spirit to reveal Himself to us and all we need to do is trust Him in good times and even more in difficulties times. God's love for us is so great, it cannot be measured. We don't deserve His love or favour but He gives them to us by His grace through our faith in Jesus Christ, His Son. God wants his children to trust and depend upon him, as their Creator, Sustainer, Defender and Deliverer. We have the confidence to trust Him with our tomorrows, because of what He did with our yesterdays. He will strengthen us in our weaknesses and grant us peace to refresh and renew our spirit, as we hope in him. Every believer must seek God  daily and come before His presence with humbleness of heart. He is All-Powerful and All-Mighty God and his strength will bring us protection, joy, mercy and hope. There is absolutely nothing too hard for God to handle. He loves  and knows his people and they ought love him and seek earnestly to know Him. They should trust in His power to look after and save then by faith, because they believe that  He is their strength. Let us as believers, seek the Lord daily and trust in him. Let us allow Him to have full access to our heart that we can experience His sweet and precious peace, and to enjoy sweet fellowship with Him. No matter how raging the storm may be, you can safely trust and abide in His love and have confidence in the truth of His Word. With joy all who believe can proclaim that the Lord is their strength and their peace. He promises to give strength unto his people and will bless them with peace. May we learn to trust in the Lord and believe He is able.

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...

 'And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter: therefore the name of it was called Marah' (Exodus 15:23). The Isralites were on a high after the Red Sea experience and their deliverance from slavery in Egypt and Pharaoh's army. The Lord led them this way become He wanted them to realise that He was their God, their Deliverer, and their Protector. The people  murmured against Moses and God, but the Lord showed them that He was still willing to guide and protect them and be their Healer, if they would look to Him. When they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters because they were bitter, so they murmured against Moses, saying, "What shall we drink" (verse 24)? Sometimes  things happened to us in life, and we become very bitter and callous. It may be family issues; a friendship gone sour; conflicts; marriage broken down; sickness or even the death of a love one. But we need to guard against bitterness cree...

 '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...
