 '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...

 'The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him' (Lamentations 3:25). For many people, waiting is not something we like to do. Waiting can bring about stress, anxiety, irritability and impatience at some points in our lives. It can also bring joy, peace, hope and happiness. We all encounter waiting in our different ways, whether its news of a new arrival in the family where there may be complications; news of a health condition; news of a love one pulling through an illness; news of a job promotion; and for believers waiting with hope and anticipation for the coming of Lord Jesus. Here Jeremiah is saying to Israel and to us that, "The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him." What is the benefit of waiting on the Lord? The Lord will renew our strength, he will not allow us to be weary or faint (Isaiah 40:31). He will be good to all who wait upon him. The Lord  will also be good to us when we search for him. W...

 'Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in the present world;' (Titus 2:12). The grace of God brings salvation to all men, seeking a change in our conduct and attitude towards God and one another. It advocates a turning away from sin, and helps the believer in Christ to reject sinful desires and refrain from ungodly living. The grace of God teaches us to avoid behaviours that are sinful and will not enhance our lives; but it is to move us towards right behaviour and right thinking. Paul was instructing Titus to teach   boldly and with authority the conduct and behaviour God expects from His people. To encourage right thinking and behaviour by them living soberly, upright and godly lives. We are also encouraged as Believers in Christ to do the same. We must allow ourselves to be taught by the great Teacher, Jesus Christ, our Lord, through the guidance of the Holy Spirit, as we search the Scriptures daily an...
