 'And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal life'
 (1 John 2:25).

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life (John 3:16). God has promised us eternal life, and whatever he promised can be trusted completely. It is only through Jesus that we can attain eternal life. It is not something we earned, but is a gift from God, which he has promised when His people truly believe in His Son Jesus Christ. This promised through Christ was made before the foundation of the world. If man sinned, the Son of God would come down from heaven, and  give his life for ours, so we could have eternal life in Him. Christ promised this in the Gospel to all who would believe on him. It is only salvation by grace that could warrant us this promise of eternal life, and not salvation by works. When we have fellowship with the Father and the Son, the hope of eternal life is certain. Let us be real! Our guarantee of eternal life rests completely in belief in Christ. Remember, God will always make good on his promises. When He gives  testimony to anything, He will surely deliver on it; because He is God and will never go back on on His Word. Let us trust the living God and his promises because He never fails us. When we doubt God, we know Satan is at work in our lives and its time to do something about it - call out to God for help. Do not give Satan the satisfaction to cast doubt about God in your heart, instead choose to trust God and his promises, so as to receive eternal life.

Have a wonderful day

 'Trust ye in the Lord forever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength' (Isaiah 26:4). In a time where there is so much confusion and uncertainty, God is calling us to trust Him always. He is our everlasting strength - the Rock of all ages, Jesus Christ our Lord. He is our refuge and strength in every trial we face and our everlasting Rock in every raging storms of our lives. He is our peace in the midst of perplexity and our Fortress in times of trouble who will cause all things to work together for good. All our blessings; temporal or spiritual comes from him, which give us cause to trust Him forever. Christ our solid Rock in ages past and ages to come, is our Righteousness and and in Him we find shelter in the time of storm. We can trust Him at all times and in everything. To give us victory over sin and temptation; to bear us up under affliction and to help us withstand the spiritual attacks that may come our way. It is a good thing to put our confidence in the Lor...

 '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...

 '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 ...
