 'What man is he that feareth the Lord? him shall he teach in the way that he should choose'
(Psalm 25:12).

All who fear the Lord will  be instructed in the way he should choose. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. The man who fears the Lord, He will give the wisdom to choose aright, to allow Him access  to his heart, mind and soul. The fear of the Lord is also the beginning of knowledge. In order for us to acquire such knowledge, we should let God leads and teaches us the path to take. The man who shows reverence and respect to the Lord is someone whom God will personally take aside and lead, guide, direct, and enlighten. When we allow the Lord to take control our lives, to lead and guide us as He pleases, we will do the right things and step into the path that God knows is right for us. No matter the challenges we face, or the trials we may go through, we should  honour and glorify God, trusting in His Word. Let us examine ourselves, to see where we are with the Lord, spiritually. If our hearts are right with the Lord, then by faith we will be more than willing for the Lord to lead us in His way. Let us learn to trust the living God and not to lean on our own understanding, but in all our ways acknowledge God, who will direct our path. The man that fears the Lord, will constantly seek after His goodness and grace, that he may come to a deeper understanding of God's grace and mercy towards him. Let us fear the Lord and trust in his amazing love, as we receive of His bountiful blessings, and to rejoice and worship our loving Lord, submitting to the leading of the Holy Spirit. The Lord will never disappoint  or fail us. So friends, why not allow the Lord to lead you into the path of life, to  restore you to himself and for you to acknowledge who He is? Fear Him and he will teach you the way you should choose, the way that leads to Him.

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...

'Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead , yet shall he live;' (John 11:25). The story of Lazarus is a well known one in the Bible. He and his sisters Martha and Mary were friends of Jesus, who loved them. Lazarus became sick and died, and after four days Jesus raised him from the dead. This was more for benefits of those around including His disciples, so that they may truly believe that God had sent him.  He was speaking  with Martha who was more focused on the telling Jesus the problem, than demanding a specific solution. We too can be so focus on the problems we faced, that we forget that God is  much bigger that the problem and is our solution to them. When Jesus told her Lazarus would rise again, she understood it to mean he would live again someday. But Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life: he that believes in me, though he was dead, yet shall he live." Christ at this time, was able...

 'But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident for, the just shall live by faith' ( Galatians 3:11). Paul in speaking to the Galatians, admonished them not to listen to heresies, that would jeopardise their relationship with Christ. The same message is relevant to us today as well. Paul here was saying, following the law cannot save us. It is our trust in God and having  faith in his Son, Jesus Christ, that can make us  right with God. That was evident, that the just shall live by faith, not by our own works. It was Christ who had redeemed us from the curse of the law by the shedding of his precious blood. We are save and made right by God's grace through faith in Christ Jesus. Abraham was justified, because He believed God  and was accounted righteous. We who are seeds of Abraham, will receive the blessings of Abraham by believing in Christ by faith and not works. The Promised blessings of Abraham by God, wasn't just for him alone, but ...
