 'For thou art my rock and fortress; therefore for thy name's sake lead me, and guide me' (Psalm 31:3).

Jehovah is our rock and fortress, and in him is our protection. Without Him we are absolutely nothing. In our difficulties we call upon the name  of Jesus, because there is no safety and security outside of Him. He alone is our very present help in the time of trouble. We can always run to Christ, who is our rock. We must understand that not because we are children of God, we think we are  exempt from any difficulties and dangers that may come upon us. But He did promised he would be with us through these difficult times and that is grace is sufficient for us. We should praise Him everyday; make him our first priority as we give him honour and total praise. Let us pray to the Lord to lead and guide us. We should delight and meditate upon Him in each waking moments, knowing Christ is our portion, and of such, we have the privilege to pray even in tough times. Like David, who was able to claim that God was his rock and submit to his perfect leading. We too can seek those  claims as our hope and confidence in the Lord increase. Let it be our desire for the Lord to lead us in the way of truth and path of righteousness, as we stand on the His Word; to guide us by the His Spirit, so we might walk upright. Anyone who is not wrapped up in Christ, is capable of losing their soul. Today I called you to come to Jesus and allow him to purge you from your sins and He will  remember  them no more for his name's sake. Trust God and let him lead and guide you for his name's  sake. Don't lose out on eternity with Christ.

Have a wonderful da

 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...

Devotional - 22nd May 2020

'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...
