 'O Lord, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things: thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth' (Isaiah 25:1).

Without God, no flesh would be upon planet earth. God created human so he could love  and have a relationship with them and for them to worship him. His love knows no boundaries and  is eternal. There is nothing we could do for  God to stop loving us. Sin came into the world and death was pronounced on all of us, but God's love was so great that He came down in the Person of His Son to die for the human race, with the shedding of His precious blood to save us. Therefore, God is worthy of our praise and we ought to honour and praise His holy name. He is our God and has done such wonderful things. He has shown the depth of His love and we must believe in Him and trust him totally.
In every generation, God has always had a people who trust His Word and believe His promises and give glory and honour to His name; even in the most difficult of times and amidst the ghastly behaviour of others towards them. They purpose in their hearts not to bow to any other, but the true and living God and to joyfully rejoice in praise and thanksgiving as they worship him, singing; "O Lord, You are my God, I will exalt You; I will praise Your name, for You have done wonderful things, and determined these things long ago, and they are faithful and they are true. No matter what you're going through right now; the trials, the tribulations, the disappointments, fears and doubts, remember God is with you. Just learn to trust Him daily and depend upon him. Trust His Word and believe His promises and give glory to His high and holy name, as you lift  your heart in praise and thanks to Him, who is  yours and my salvation; and is worthy above all other beings and objects. By His faithfulnes and keeping of His promises, let us trust in Him, our God, who has confirmed all these wonderful things well ahead of 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

 'Let not thine heart envy sinners: but be thou in the fear of the Lord all the day long" (Proverbs 23:17). We are ever to put the Lord first in every thing we do. Let our focus be on the Lord our God, Creator and Redeemer, rather than on sinners, even to envy them. David was tempted to envy the wicked, and remind us in Psalm 37:1 that we should not fret ourselves because of evil doers, or be envious against the workers of iniquity. The wicked will in time reap their reward and fall into mischief, as they hardened their hearts against God and His Word. Even, as Children of God, we are sometimes apt to be envious in our hearts, towards those who do not fear or reverence God; of their prosperity, pleasure and honour, which is not eternal. But we are admonished by King Solomon, that we are not to let our heart envy sinners: but to be in fear of the Lord all the day long. We must exercise our faith and trust in the Lord. We should not look to wicked and evil men who do not fear Go

 'Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still' (Psalm 4:4). God knows everything about us, because he is God, our Creator and there is nothing that can be hidden from him. He knows the heart and the intents of the heart; Our thoughts, emotions, desires and motives, whether they be good or evil. He knows the godly from the ungodly, and have set apart those who are godly for himself, and will hear when they call unto him (verse 3). We are all called to be in a right relationship with God. Those who accept this call should have daily communion with Him through the study of His Word, prayer and supplications, allowing the Holy Spirit access in their hearts, that they might not wilfully sin against Him. We need to search our hearts daily and be silent before God as we contemplate his grace and his mercy towards us, and He will reveal Himself to us. When our enemies seek to do us harm, or people speak lies about us, simply look to Jesus and trus
