 '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

 'Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in the present world;' (Titus 2:12). The grace of God brings salvation to all men, seeking a change in our conduct and attitude towards God and one another. It advocates a turning away from sin, and helps the believer in Christ to reject sinful desires and refrain from ungodly living. The grace of God teaches us to avoid behaviours that are sinful and will not enhance our lives; but it is to move us towards right behaviour and right thinking. Paul was instructing Titus to teach   boldly and with authority the conduct and behaviour God expects from His people. To encourage right thinking and behaviour by them living soberly, upright and godly lives. We are also encouraged as Believers in Christ to do the same. We must allow ourselves to be taught by the great Teacher, Jesus Christ, our Lord, through the guidance of the Holy Spirit, as we search the Scriptures daily an...

 '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...

 'And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter: therefore the name of it was called Marah' (Exodus 15:23). The Isralites were on a high after the Red Sea experience and their deliverance from slavery in Egypt and Pharaoh's army. The Lord led them this way become He wanted them to realise that He was their God, their Deliverer, and their Protector. The people  murmured against Moses and God, but the Lord showed them that He was still willing to guide and protect them and be their Healer, if they would look to Him. When they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters because they were bitter, so they murmured against Moses, saying, "What shall we drink" (verse 24)? Sometimes  things happened to us in life, and we become very bitter and callous. It may be family issues; a friendship gone sour; conflicts; marriage broken down; sickness or even the death of a love one. But we need to guard against bitterness cree...
