 '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

 '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...

 'Trust ye in the Lord forever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength' (Isaiah 26:4). In a time where there is so much confusion and uncertainty, God is calling us to trust Him always. He is our everlasting strength - the Rock of all ages, Jesus Christ our Lord. He is our refuge and strength in every trial we face and our everlasting Rock in every raging storms of our lives.

'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...
