 '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

 'I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you' (John 14:18). Jesus is awesome and full of compassion. He loved his disciples and wanted them to understand about His death and resurrection; that He would be going away for a while. He knew they would be confused and devastated, so he hastened to comfort them. He said, 'Let not your heart be troubled: Ye believe in God, believe also in me...I go to prepare a place for you...I will come again and receive you unto myself, that where I am there ye may be also' (John 14:1-3). He also promised another Comforter, that he can abide with them forever. What a merciful and loving Saviour! He went further to say he would not leave them comfortless; but will come to them. He was like a father to them, as He and the Father are one. Therefore, He promised not to leave them fatherless, or as an orphan. But will come to them. Speaking of His death and resurrection He said that in a little while the world would not see him no more

 'In your patience possess ye your souls' (Luke 21:19). In the last days we will suffer afflictions, persecutions and be reproach of men. We will be betrayed even by our own families and friends, as they hand us over to our persecutors to save themselves.  God is saying to us, that we should be patient as we bear these burdens and afflictions, by possessing peace and joy in our souls which no one  cannot take away. Our hope and life is in Christ Jesus, and when we hold steadfast unto him, allowing the Holy Spirit to dwell in us and work through us; we will let nothing disturb our peace  or distress our soul. In isolation, it may seem daunting and a difficult task to be joyful and enjoy ourselves in such dire circumstances. However, when Christ is in us the Holy Spirit will empower us and give us the endurance and perseverance to enjoy our souls. The Word of God said, "...we shall be hated of all men for my name's sake; but he that endureth to the end shall be saved&quo
