 'For the Lord is our defense; and the Holy One of Israel is our king'
(Psalm 89:18).

Everything on the earth belongs to God and  he is greatly exalted. He is our defense and our protection comes from Him. He raised up kings on the earth to rule nations, but the Lord Jesus, our Saviour is the King of all kings. The God of Israel is both our Ruler and our Defense and we ought to acknowledge Him as our King. He is holy and righteous with a flawless and perfect character. We can surely trust Him, whose promises are sure. He is not a God who can lie because He is sinless and full of truth and justice. We are truely bless to be able to call upon the Lord at anytime and acknowledge him as our God for ever. We are God's creative beings and  should reverence and hold Him in high esteem, because of His holiness. We should rejoice in His name all the day and in his righteousness shall we be exalted. He is our Defense and the Holy One of Israel, who is the legal King of the earth. The Lord our God shall be our strength in our trials and afflictions. Let us therefore, turn to the Lord our God and reverence Him. Let us learn to walk in the light of the Lord and basked in His comfort and favour as we seek to keep ourselves wrapped up in His amazing love. Come all who believe in the Saviour Jesus Christ, be exceedingly joyful and rejoice in Him for evermore as we hope in him. The Lord is indeed our Defense and High Tower, and is all we need to survive in our times of trials and afflictions. Today lift Jesus higher and rejoice in Him, he will never fail 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

 '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
