 'Let him praise the name of the Lord: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven' (Psalm 148:13).

Whether young men or women, old men or children, we are all God's children, who are called to praise the name of the Lord; because the name of the Lord is excellent and his glory above the earth and heaven. There is none like unto the Lord our God, that can even be compared unto him. His glory surpasses all others and is greater than any glory that we can render to him. We should never stop praising the name of the Lord or his character, because He is God and is worthy of our praise. It was in Christ, that all things were created, therefore everything created should  praise the Lord God; because with His power he commanded all things into being. He also created man into his own image to worship him. Let us give thanks unto the Lord, and serve him with gladness of heart, because He is God, and that we know. Let us rejoice in the goodness of God each day and celebrate the excellency of his name, whose glory is above the earth and heaven. We must surely exalt the name of the Lord, who is the King of kings and the Lord of lords; the sovereignLord  and  God of the Universe. We ought to reverence God and exalt his name on high. He is the One who created, redeemed and sustained us; who else is worthy of our praise? The answer is, no one else, but God. Therfore, He alone is worthy of all our praise; every praise must be to the Creator God. I implore you not to give the praise and honour due to the true and living God, to no created being or things. But let us rejoice and give thanks and praise to the name of God which is above every other name.

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 ...
