 '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...

'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...

 'But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident for, the just shall live by faith' ( Galatians 3:11). Paul in speaking to the Galatians, admonished them not to listen to heresies, that would jeopardise their relationship with Christ. The same message is relevant to us today as well. Paul here was saying, following the law cannot save us. It is our trust in God and having  faith in his Son, Jesus Christ, that can make us  right with God. That was evident, that the just shall live by faith, not by our own works. It was Christ who had redeemed us from the curse of the law by the shedding of his precious blood. We are save and made right by God's grace through faith in Christ Jesus. Abraham was justified, because He believed God  and was accounted righteous. We who are seeds of Abraham, will receive the blessings of Abraham by believing in Christ by faith and not works. The Promised blessings of Abraham by God, wasn't just for him alone, but ...
