 'Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved' (Psalm 55:22).

All whose trust is in the Lord, know they can cast their cares upon him. They know when they give their burdens to Him, he will take care of them, and not cause them to slip and fall. God loves us more than we can ever think or imagine. His love is immeasurable and eternal! Whatever situation we find ourselves in, we must trust Him, that he is able to take care of us. 1 Peter 5:7 says we are to cast all our anxieties on Him, because he cares for us.
When we rely on the Lord for everything, he shall sustain us. In your fear and anxiety, look to Him and be confident that you can lean on His everlasting arm and be safe. Jesus bids us come to him, all who are weary and burdened and he will give us rest. He invites us to take His yoke upon us and learn from him, because he is gentle and humble in heart and we will find rest for our weary souls. For His yoke is easy, and his burden is light. (Matthew 11:28-30).
Today, cast all those burdens that weigh down your hearts and lives: it may be illness, worry, grief, loss of job or an important friendship or the end of a marriage, financial hardship, a trauma you have experienced; things that are out of your control. Jesus said you are to hand them over to him and he will take care of them and sustain you and will not suffer you to be moved. Note the Word of God said, "He shall never suffer the righteous to be moved." Therefore, we must have a relationship with the Lord, be living a godly life, looking only to him, and he will not suffer us to be moved. David was going through a difficult time in his life, with worries, anxieties and fear, but he had to stop for a moment and look to the Lord. He knew the Lord would sustain him through those difficulties and would not allow him to be shaken. We too can have that experience, when we with confidence, look to the Lord and cast all our burdens upon Him. There are many calamities happening in this world that overwhelm us and cause us to fear, but the Word of God reminds us not to fear, for the Lord our God is with us. We are encouraged to cast our cares upon Him, and he will sustain us.

Have a wonderful day 🌹🌹

 Devotional 'The Lord is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed' (Psalm 28:8). The Lord our God is the glory of our strength, and in His name we shall rejoice all the day. The Lord is our strength, and the saving strength of His anointed. It is through Christ our anointed that all our blessings come to us. Here we see David, who is a type of our Lord Jesus, praising God. What about you? Christ had done much for us and has achieved full salvation for us, therefore, praise Him! We, like Israel are encouraged that the Lord is our Strength and salvation. When we seek to be in a  relationship with God, He will protect us from our enemies and save us from the crutches of Satan. Just as how Satan attempts to destroy Christ many times, whilst he was on earth, God  saved him and will do the same for us. Christ died to save us all, but it is those who trust Him and have a saving relationship with him that will spend eternity with. He is our High Priest, and J...

 'I protest by your rejoicing  which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily' (1 Corinthians 15:31). Christ our Lord came and died for each and everyone to save us from the bondage of sin. He lived on this earth, ministered to the needs of all who He encountered; He was crucified, and resurrected and is now interceding for us, as our High Priest in Heaven. What if there was no resurrection? What would be the implications for God's people? The preaching of the gospel would be a lie, our faith would be worthless and we would all have remained in our sin. Paul is saying, there would be no cause to his dying daily, or for any one who believed and accept Jesus as their personal Saviour to die daily. Paul was expecting death at any time for Christ's sake. He was constantly in peril of his life, he encountered extreme sufferings and was beset with death. He was willing to die at anytime and in any way for Christ's sake. He did not count his life dear unto himself, but...

 'The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing' (Zephaniah 3 17). What an amazing and wonderful God we serve, who is mighty to save. The Lord our God is with us and is mighty to save. He will take great delight in us and will quiet us with his love, and also rejoice over us with singing. We didn't have to do anything for God to love us, he did because he created us and we are His. He created us and loves us just as we are. Even when we did not deserve it, the Lord took delight in us. What an awesome God! He is present in the midst of us, loving and caring for us. He protects and defend us; died to save us from sin, so we can have life and have it more abundant. He is mighty to save us from fears; our enemies and the bondage of sin and death. We all need a Saviour, Christ the Lord, who is the cure for our problems and the antidote to sin. Christ has already won ...
