 'When you passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when though walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee'
(Isaiah 43:2).

God is faithful and true and his promises are sure. He promises to be there when you go through deep waters; through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown; or through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up nor will the flames consume you; because He is the Lord your God, your Saviour.
In your most difficult times, God will support you and give you strength and deliver you out of danger without harm. When we go through the storms of life, God said, we should not fear or let our hearts be troubled, for He is with us, we should not be dismayed for he is our God. We are redeemed by the precious blood of Lord Jesus Christ, and whatever life throws at us, the Lord promised never to leave us nor to forsake us. We need these wonderful promises to encourage and strengthen us in these difficult times we are living in. We must take comfort in the fact that we are God's Children, who are bought with a price and belong to the Father. All who believe in the Lord Jesus and give their heart to him, are reconciled to God by his blood, and are privileged to call God, 'Abba, Father.' Today, we have the assurance of God's promises of protection, and His help is available to all who call upon His name. We are facing spiritual battles everyday and God's help and protection are stedfast and sure. Let us seek the Lord diligently, earnestly and wholeheartedly, trusting him at His Word. Let us believe what God says to us, and rest in the knowledge of His Sovereignty and being God of the Universe. Let us trust God in all circumstances of life, because He who has promised is faithful and will never let us down or let us go.

Have a wonderful day and a blessed weekend

 '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...
