 'Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation' (Psalm 68:19).

God is our Burden-bearer, who doesn't get weary or sick; and is never tired of bearing our burdens. But we also have to be willing and allow Him to bear our burdens, by casting them on Him. We live in a world of sin, where we experience sorrow, pain, grief, stress; we endure distress and are emotionally and physically drained from all the pressures of this world. There is a solution to all of these burdens we carry - Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour. He daily bears our burden as we give them all to Him. The presence of the Lord is among his people and his benefits are not few. The Scriptures says they are loads! Even if the Lord allows us to be burdened with sorrow, he gives us sufficient strength to sustain it. When others oppressed or distressed us, we have no need to fear, for the Lord will rescue us from such burdens. The Scriptures says that the Lord's yoke is easy and his burden light, all we have to do is come to him if we are wearisome and burdened, and He will give us rest. Blessed be the name of the our Saviour, who is the God of our salvation. Let us applaud the Lord and daily give thanks and praise to him, because He is our God and worthy of all our praise. Let us for a moment reflect on the goodness of God. Who He is - the God of our salvation and what He has done for us. He loads us daily with his benefits.  Let us praise and bless the Lord as we express thanks to Him for His acts of mercy, grace and love. God loads us daily with His benefits which is more than enough for us. In Ephesians 3:20 the Scriptures tell us that, now to Him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think. Know today, God's mercies are new every morning!  He is loading you with new mercies today, so have faith and believe in God, that you'll be able to access all his benefits. If you're in need of healing there is access; if you want deliverance there is access; if you're in need of help there is access. What ever we need God will grant to us, in accordance to His will. When we approach God in prayer, with sincerity of heart, calling upon His name, we have access to all his benefits. Let us align ourselves to Him so he can load us with His bountiful blessings.

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...

Devotional - 14th July 2020

'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...
