 'For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy towards them that fear him'
(Psalm 103:11).

Even though we know that Jesus died to save us, we still cannot fathom the depth of his love for humanity. But His unfailing love towards those who fear him is great as the height of the heaven above the earth. How amazing! When we think of the fear of God, it is about  reverence to Him. When we recognise that he is God and there is none like him, it should lead us to total obedience and humility. Have you ever gazed up into the heaven and marvelled at the creative power of God? Our eyes can only see what the naked eye can see, our mind cannot understand what's beyond. God's love is way beyond and extended further than we can imagine. It is immeasurable! When you recognise what God has done for you, it is mind bogging! You have to give him praise. It behoves us to obey God and walk after him and fear Him because his mercy is so great. We cannot measure the bounds of the universe, because our thoughts can't go there, but God's love is beyond all that. Those who reverence and serve him, recognise how great the mercy of God is. He loves us and will love us forever, regardless of what we have done, but  it is the bad choices we make that will separate us from God. Let us seek the Lord  right now, reverence and serve Him so we can experience His great mercy towards us. His mercy and love is incomparable and we can  only imagine the heights of the heaven as we see it, but only God sees beyond because He is the Creator. Only those who fear the Lord will experience the great heights of his love for them. Do you want to experience His love and great mercy? Then seek to reverence and glorify God.

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 ...
