 'Seek the Lord, and his strength: seek his face evermore' (Psalm 105:4).

We are admonished to seek the Lord and his strength, and to seek His face continually. We don't only need physical strength in our daily lives, but also spiritual strength, which can only be found in Christ. Spiritual strength also assist us in exercising grace as we do the will of God. It is important for us as God's Children to commune daily with him, through prayer, the study of His Word and exercising of our faith. As believers, we should seek to put ourselves under the protection of the Lord  and the guidance of the Holy Spirit, and look onto His omnipotence and mighty providence. Let us seek God's strength and desire his presence, and his favour towards us. We must never cease to seek the Lord! The Word of God implore us to seek Him; His strength and His face. Therefore, it behoves us to seek His face and seek to have his favour to eternity. In Christ, the solid Rock, is the fulness of joy, as we come before Him, in his presence to behold his glory, and to have our joy fulfilled before his face. In seeking God, we are watching for him and his work on a daily basis, as we journey life's rugged path. We must surely pay attention to the Almighty, most Holy God, from the moment we rise up to the moment we lay our heads to rest at night. We must be intentional in seeking the Lord, trust and rely on Him; honour Him with our heart and soul, because of who He is and what he has done for us. We are to seek the Lord, his strength and his presence all the days of our lives, that we may live a purposeful and  fulfilled life. Let us learn to be open to His guidance, his wisdom and his strength as we seek his face evermore. May God grant us strength and grace as we fellowship with Him and each other.

Have a wonderful day

 Devotional 'The Lord is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed' (Psalm 28:8). The Lord our God is the glory of our strength, and in His name we shall rejoice all the day. The Lord is our strength, and the saving strength of His anointed. It is through Christ our anointed that all our blessings come to us. Here we see David, who is a type of our Lord Jesus, praising God. What about you? Christ had done much for us and has achieved full salvation for us, therefore, praise Him! We, like Israel are encouraged that the Lord is our Strength and salvation. When we seek to be in a  relationship with God, He will protect us from our enemies and save us from the crutches of Satan. Just as how Satan attempts to destroy Christ many times, whilst he was on earth, God  saved him and will do the same for us. Christ died to save us all, but it is those who trust Him and have a saving relationship with him that will spend eternity with. He is our High Priest, and J...

 'I protest by your rejoicing  which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily' (1 Corinthians 15:31). Christ our Lord came and died for each and everyone to save us from the bondage of sin. He lived on this earth, ministered to the needs of all who He encountered; He was crucified, and resurrected and is now interceding for us, as our High Priest in Heaven. What if there was no resurrection? What would be the implications for God's people? The preaching of the gospel would be a lie, our faith would be worthless and we would all have remained in our sin. Paul is saying, there would be no cause to his dying daily, or for any one who believed and accept Jesus as their personal Saviour to die daily. Paul was expecting death at any time for Christ's sake. He was constantly in peril of his life, he encountered extreme sufferings and was beset with death. He was willing to die at anytime and in any way for Christ's sake. He did not count his life dear unto himself, but...

 'The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing' (Zephaniah 3 17). What an amazing and wonderful God we serve, who is mighty to save. The Lord our God is with us and is mighty to save. He will take great delight in us and will quiet us with his love, and also rejoice over us with singing. We didn't have to do anything for God to love us, he did because he created us and we are His. He created us and loves us just as we are. Even when we did not deserve it, the Lord took delight in us. What an awesome God! He is present in the midst of us, loving and caring for us. He protects and defend us; died to save us from sin, so we can have life and have it more abundant. He is mighty to save us from fears; our enemies and the bondage of sin and death. We all need a Saviour, Christ the Lord, who is the cure for our problems and the antidote to sin. Christ has already won ...
