 '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

 '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
