 'Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established' (Proverbs 16:3).

Whatever you do, commit it to the Lord and He will direct your ways and established your plans. As believers we are called upon to commit our works and all our activities unto the Lord. But how many of us try to do it in our own strength, instead of in the power of the Holy Spirit? It is only through a life in Christ that God will carry out our works and activities.  If we are disobedient or fearful, proud and vain, how can God carry out His work in us? He is not going to force us! We have to give Him our heart and allow him to transform us. In order for our plans to be successful or achieved, we must dedicate our ways and our works to the Lord. By His grace He will use them to fulfil his purpose in us. All who put their trust and believe in Christ, should rely on God in all things and entrust them to him. He is the Sovereign God and hold sovereignity over everything. We have to allow Him to direct us as we follow him all the way, that we can see the blessings of the Lord. Let us seek to commit ourselves to God daily, so we can experience His blessings that he had promised us. As we commit our plans to the Lord, allow Him to have a His way in all we do, that they may be pleasing to him and bring glory to Him. God causes all things to work together for good for His glory, and shall make it come to pass. Knowing this and having the assurance will bring us God's peace, and we shall not be fearful or anxious, because we know His way is the best way. Let us roll all our actions, good or bad unto the Lord and allow Him to rearrange our thoughts, purposes and intentions for his glory. Let us keep praying and study His Word daily, giving everything over to Jesus and trust God wholeheartedly in committing our works unto him, so our thoughts can be established according to His will.

Have a wonderful day

'Work at living in peace with everyone, and work at living a holy life, for those who are not holy will not see the Lord' (Hebrews 12:14).  God is a God of peace and of such wants His Children to seek peace between themselves and others. We are also encouraged to pursue a life of holiness, which can only happen through having a relationship with God and being empowered by the influence of the Holy Spirit. As we turn the eyes of our heart upon Jesus, fixing the thoughts of our minds on Him, that His peace, like a river flows into our heart, and His holiness becomes a reality in our life as we consecrate it to Him. We are called to be holy in our thoughts, in words and our deeds; but cannot achieve it by our own efforts.  W e must be consecrated in body, soul, and mind, but not of our own strength. It is only through the empowering of the Holy Spirit that we can pursue holiness and be at peace with each other. Without the Holy Spirit leading us to live a life of ho...

 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...

 '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...
