 'Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have I not told thee from that time, and have declared it? Ye are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? Yea, there is no God; (Isaiah 44:8).

When we know God and see Christ as our Redeemer and Saviour, we should have no fear neither be afraid. God had revealed all in the Scriptures about His Son Jesus Christ, from the Old Testament to the New Testament and we see have heard and seen the fulfilment. God had revealed to His people all that would happen aforetime and had declared it. Christ's disciples had the opportunity to see and to  hear from his mouth, things to come and the fulfilment of that which was declared before hand. They were called to be witnesses in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and other parts of the world. We are also called to be witnesses in this dark world of sin. There is no other God then, as there is no other God now beside the God of Creation. We should not excuse our ignorance, in not accepting or being satisfied with one God. God is saying to us not to be afraid! He has proclaimed in His Word all that should happened long before they occurred, and have called us to be witnesses. Our God is Sovereign and All-knowing. He knows things no one else could possible know, except the One who created all things. It is God alone who can predict the future perfectly and precisely at all times, without any form of mistake. Let all who have been called, be His witnesses in telling the world that God is the Master of everything, proclaim the Gospel of salvation and of the soon coming of Christ. Let us not be discouraged about the bad situations, the challenges, and afflictions in this life; because God knows what is happening, since He has already proclaimed it. Keep your focus on God's promises and trust Him and we shall have no fear in this world, or be afraid because we know who God is.

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...

 'Trust ye in the Lord forever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength' (Isaiah 26:4). In a time where there is so much confusion and uncertainty, God is calling us to trust Him always. He is our everlasting strength - the Rock of all ages, Jesus Christ our Lord. He is our refuge and strength in every trial we face and our everlasting Rock in every raging storms of our lives. He is our peace in the midst of perplexity and our Fortress in times of trouble who will cause all things to work together for good. All our blessings; temporal or spiritual comes from him, which give us cause to trust Him forever. Christ our solid Rock in ages past and ages to come, is our Righteousness and and in Him we find shelter in the time of storm. We can trust Him at all times and in everything. To give us victory over sin and temptation; to bear us up under affliction and to help us withstand the spiritual attacks that may come our way. It is a good thing to put our confidence in the Lor...

'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...
