 'Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day'
(Psalm 25:5).

Despite the constant pressures, oppression and challenges David faced in his life, he never stop trusting or relying on God. He always looked to the Lord in his prayers, with faith and obedience to the Word of God. David trusted in the Lord in times of great danger and waited upon Him with endurance, for his help and deliverance. We must make the Word of God our food that will nourish us spiritually; we must study and digest the Word of wisdom and truth; to live in obedience to God's Word as we seek to know and have a personal relationship with Him. When we allow God to lead us in his truth, and teach us the way to him, we will certainly know the truth, which shall set us free from sin. We will acknowledge Him as the God of our salvation, granted us through the precious blood of Jesus Christ, our Lord. We will choose to wait upon the Lord all the day, to renew our strength. As we pray for God's guidance and deliverance each step of life's journey, let us align our will with his and hope  in expectation for his deliverance and saving grace. Time and time again God has proven himself faithful. Let us too learn to be faithful to our God and allow Him to lead us by the way of his truth, that we might be able to manifest his spirit. Let us seek to have a teachable spirit to learn of Him and Christ crucified; to be sanctified by His truth as we continue to wait upon him. God is gracious and longsuffering towards us and must not grow weary of waiting upon Him. Today, allow the Holy Spirit work in and through you to transform your life and equip you for service to God. Let it be your desire to have a closer walk with Christ and to draw closer to His throne of grace, as you seek to worship the Lord your God.

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...

 '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 ...
