 'For with God all nothing shall be impossible' (Luke  1:37).

When life gets difficult, it sometimes seems tough to hold unto our faith in God. But it is true to say, no matter the storms, you can be comforted  and have the assurance that we can put our faith in God and trust Him. There is nothing that the Lord cannot do; he is the Giver of all all good things. He doesn't want anything bad for us, because He loves and cares for us. He is the God of possibilities and can make our impossibilities possible. God's promises are true and sure, there is no doubt about that! Christ himself is the fulfilment of all that God has promised. It is important to note that, no promises of God will ever fail; He is the Omnipotent God who created all things; his Word is truth and his truth is consistent with his perfect nature and spotless character. Let us seek to put total trust in God in every circumstances of our lives, and believe that nothing is impossible with God, whether in His promises to us, or in what we may have requested of him. As we experience Christ and the Immutable love of God, let us demonstrate that trusting faith in Him, believing nothing is impossible with him. In the Bible we see instances of God's possibilities. At creation, God created the heaven and earth out of nothing, through the power of His Word;  God's promise of a son to Abraham when Sarah had long passed the age of child bearing. There are countless possibilities of God in his words, that should leave us without a shadow of doubt of what our God can do. Nothing is impossible with God, who came to earth in the Person of His Son, born to a virgin girl - a human being; to die for a world that didn't deserve to live. What amazing love! Let us therefore, trust God no matter what. Even when we don't understand, just like Mary; but we too like her can testify that with God nothing is impossible.

 '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...

 '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 ...
