 'Who is among you that feareth the Lord, that obeyeth the voice of his servant, that walketh in darkness and hath no light? Let him trust in the name of the Lord, and stay upon his God' (Isaiah
50:10).

Our trust is in the Lord and when we fear and obey him, we will not walk in darkness, but in his light. In fearing the Lord we reverence and worship him in awe, because we know who he is. The question was asked in the passage of Scriptures, "Who is among you that feareth the Lord? The answer, "We must obey the voice of his servant."  There was another question asked, "Who is it that walketh in darkness and hath no light?" "Let him trust in the name of the Lordvand stay upon his God.  Can we identify with all those who feared the Lord and obeyed the voice of Christ, the Lord's servant?  Let us seek to fear God and to hear his word and to submit to his ordinances and his will; So we might not find ourselves walking in darkness, having no light.  Instead Let us simply trust in the Lord by faith, having confidence to depend upon his power to protect, to provide for our needs, his wisdom to guide us, his grace and mercy, his goodness, being the All-sufficient one to supply all our needs. Today, seek the Lord whilst he can be found. Let us try to imitate Christ's example and not rely on our own strength and power. This will not help us, unless we put our trust in God, as we lean on his everlasting arm. It was Christ who is also God, that took upon himself the form of a servant to die for us and then reconciled us back to the Father.  Let us therefore stay on the coast and trust God with godly fear as we call upon 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...

 '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.
