 'I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me'
(Proverbs 8:17).

The Lord our God loves all his children and his wisdom supersedes all other wisdom. He especially love those who are his own, who love and seek after him with their hearts. In the same way He allude to the fact that, he will honour those who honour him, and those that despise Him shall be lightly esteemed (1 Samuel 2:30). Jesus's love is incomparable, selfless and Sacrificial. His love for us was his death on the cross, to give us freedom from sin and save us. God wants us to respond to His infinite love and seek him with all our hearts. He promised when we do so, that we shall find him. Jesus is the source of true wisdom and is calling out to lost humanity to come to him as we are. He will mold us, fashioned us, make and remake us into who He wants us to be, to bring glory to God. Let us seek that godly wisdom Christ offers us, by allowing the Holy Spirit to work fully and completely with us. When we know Christ and have a knowledge of him, we will love and believe in him by faith as our Saviour from sin, but also as the incarnate Son of God. We will have a sincere heart open towards Him, bursting with so much love for him. We will seek an earnest desire after His presence and will delight ourselves in him. He will love those who truly love him! It doesn't mean that He begins to love his people when they love him, because He loved them before the foundation of the earth and died to save them. His love is unconditional and eternal. He loved us before we love Him. When our love for Christ spring from His love for us, we will be assured of our love for him. Let us love the Lord and seek after his wisdom. Let us seek to find Him early; the first thing each morning seek Him. Put Him above all things and rejoice in Him as our Saviour. Search for Him with your whole heart and you shall surely find him.

Have a wonderful day

 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...

 'I protest by your rejoicing  which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily' (1 Corinthians 15:31). Christ our Lord came and died for each and everyone to save us from the bondage of sin. He lived on this earth, ministered to the needs of all who He encountered; He was crucified, and resurrected and is now interceding for us, as our High Priest in Heaven. What if there was no resurrection? What would be the implications for God's people? The preaching of the gospel would be a lie, our faith would be worthless and we would all have remained in our sin. Paul is saying, there would be no cause to his dying daily, or for any one who believed and accept Jesus as their personal Saviour to die daily. Paul was expecting death at any time for Christ's sake. He was constantly in peril of his life, he encountered extreme sufferings and was beset with death. He was willing to die at anytime and in any way for Christ's sake. He did not count his life dear unto himself, but...

 'The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing' (Zephaniah 3 17). What an amazing and wonderful God we serve, who is mighty to save. The Lord our God is with us and is mighty to save. He will take great delight in us and will quiet us with his love, and also rejoice over us with singing. We didn't have to do anything for God to love us, he did because he created us and we are His. He created us and loves us just as we are. Even when we did not deserve it, the Lord took delight in us. What an awesome God! He is present in the midst of us, loving and caring for us. He protects and defend us; died to save us from sin, so we can have life and have it more abundant. He is mighty to save us from fears; our enemies and the bondage of sin and death. We all need a Saviour, Christ the Lord, who is the cure for our problems and the antidote to sin. Christ has already won ...
