 'God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord'
(1 Corinthians 1:9).

God is faithful and just, and will fulfill all his promises to all those who are called; believed in His Word and trusted His Son, Jesus Christ for their salvation. God the faithful One, united with His Son, established the redemption of man before the foundation of the world; that by the grace God through faith, we would become children of God and joint heir with Christ in His love. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life (John 3:16). All those who trusted in the redeeming blood of Christ have been promised eternal life with Him. Even when we fail to trust Him, God is always faithful. Let us seek to enrich our lives by living unto Christ, who has bought us with a price - His own precious blood; and unto God who has called us into fellowship with His Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Let us ever look to Christ who is our salvation. In our problems and various situations we can look to Him, because none of these things will hinder God from being faithful by His grace, to anyone of us who come to him through faith in Jesus Christ. As believers, we are called by God into fellowship with Christ. He wants to see us in a deep and meaningful relationship with Him, and with Christ; and in a relationship with each other. Let us recognise our calling in this special relationship God is calling us into, trust His Word and trust Christ, our Lord and Saviour. God is calling all who are willing to hear him, to be in a saving relationship with Him. Will you heed the call?

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

 '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

 'The integrity of the upright will guide them, but the perversity of the unfaithful will destroy them' (Proverbs 11:3). In our everyday life, we struggle with doing right from wrong. The Spirit of God is the best guide for those who are upright and we must honour and trust God. There are two ways to live: either the safe way, doing what is right; or the dangerous way, doing what feels good and sounds good. To be one of integrity is to always do what is right, regardless of difficulties or consequences; and that's what the upright does. They have constant guide through the Word of God and the voice of their conscience. The perverse on the other hand, do whatever they want, having no standards or parameters for their actions, so their perversity will destroy them. For example, in the Bible Haman was perverse and wicked, his ways were crooked; he conspired to take away the lives of others, but to his own demise He was hung instead for his wicked deeds (Esther 7:10). When we k
