 'O praise the Lord, all ye Nations: praise him all ye people. For his merciful kindness is great towards us: and the truth of the Lord endureth forever. Praise Ye the Lord (Psalm 117:1,2).

The Lord our God is so wonderful and is worthy of all our praise. God is inviting all nations and people of the earth to praise him, because his merciful kindness and eternal truth of salvation is for all. It is both for Jews and Gentiles alike to accept his free gift of salvation. God came down from heaven in the form of His Son, Jesus Christ to redeem us back to himself. However, it is only those who believe by grace through faith in Jesus, that will be rewarded with eternal life when Jesus returns. Just remember, everyone has this wonderful opportunity of eternal life! God is a great  promise keeper and whatever He promises, He will provide, because He loves us and is not slack concerning his promises, as we are. God has everything worked out through his plan of redemption for mankind. We can rest assured with hope and confidence that He is working everything out for our good. Therefore, we ought to praise and rejoice and be glad in Him. For His merciful kindness is great toward us and his truth endures forever. We all can see the goodness and faithfulness of God in our daily lives, whether we accept him or not. We all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. But what did God do? He proceeded to take care of the sin problem, through his redemptive kindness and eternal truth in the Person of his Son, who died to save us. So, everyone who believe in His Son and accept him by faith shall have eternal life. Isn't this a good reason to praise the Lord? Let us be obedient to the will of God and look to Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our faith. God is calling all his children to draw near, and to come to him. He is longing to have that divine fellowship and eternal relationship with us, as was originally intended before sin came into the world. Let us praise the Saviour continuously as we accept his merciful kindness and eternal truth.

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
