 'God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, all them that are about him' (Psalm 89:7)

God is always faithful to his children and is therefore, to be greatly feared as we reverence Him. How amazing it is to recognise that we are deeply loved by the Lord our God. It is always a great feeling to know we are loved by our parents, our spouses, and children, isn't it? How much more, should our feeling be, when we know the love of God for us, and that it stands forever. In the assembly of the angels, it is said, God is greatly to be praise. They know how to worship the Creator God and experience His presence.   With awe they praise and worship God for His amazing love for the sacrifice He made on behalf of fallen human race, through His Son Jesus Christ. We do have a lot to give God thanks for and to show reverence and awe for what He has done for us . We should approach God with awe when we think of His mighty power; His greatness; His Sovereignty. In other words, who He is! There is none who can be compared to God, in heaven or earth, so he is worthy of our praise. His awesome presence should fill our minds with awe. When we feel that His eye is upon us and know that He sees us, we cannot be engaged in sinful acts. Let us strive to serve God with reverence and godly fear, giving glory and honour to His name. All who believe in God will want to publicly worship Him, trust in the name of Jesus and seek to lift up one another and engage in praise and honour to God. From all ages God is  worshipped and is greatly to be feared in the assembly of his saints, all of whom is about 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...

 '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...

 '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...
