 O love the Lord, all ye his saints: for the Lord preseveth the faithful, and plentifully rewarded  the proud doer' (Psalm 31:23).

We are called to love the Lord, not only by words but by deeds. We are to express it under a sense of the love God has towards us.
We ought to appreciate God's amazing love for us and reverence him; trust in him and give thanks to him, as a result of his kindness towards us, and because he is also God.
God in his mercy will preserve us, as we trust in Him; as we believe in Christ our Saviour; being faithful to  his word and abide by them.
God is a covenant-keeping God, who is always faithful. He is true to his word and his promises to his people. He will reward those who are self-righteous and proud doers according to their works.
Let us therefore, truly praise and exalt the name of the Lord, because we love Him deeply, and know that He  will preserve those who are faithful.
We are admonished in the Scriptures, to love the Lord our God with all our heart, and strength and mind. It is the whole duty of man to fear God and keep His commands.
Let us recognised our strength in the Lord, and acknowledged that our source of grace is from him. When we allow Him to work in and through us, it will lead us to give praise to Him for His abundant mercy and power, through the influence and power of the Holy Spirit.
The Lord our God does preserve his people and honour faithfulness, even  if there are scoffers who mocked us in this world of sin. It is only God who will bless his people and deal justly with those who mocked, scoffed or oppressed them. Let us lean on Jesus and trust Him who is faithful.

Have a wonderful day

 Devotional 'The Lord is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed' (Psalm 28:8). The Lord our God is the glory of our strength, and in His name we shall rejoice all the day. The Lord is our strength, and the saving strength of His anointed. It is through Christ our anointed that all our blessings come to us. Here we see David, who is a type of our Lord Jesus, praising God. What about you? Christ had done much for us and has achieved full salvation for us, therefore, praise Him! We, like Israel are encouraged that the Lord is our Strength and salvation. When we seek to be in a  relationship with God, He will protect us from our enemies and save us from the crutches of Satan. Just as how Satan attempts to destroy Christ many times, whilst he was on earth, God  saved him and will do the same for us. Christ died to save us all, but it is those who trust Him and have a saving relationship with him that will spend eternity with. He is our High Priest, and J...

 'I protest by your rejoicing  which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily' (1 Corinthians 15:31). Christ our Lord came and died for each and everyone to save us from the bondage of sin. He lived on this earth, ministered to the needs of all who He encountered; He was crucified, and resurrected and is now interceding for us, as our High Priest in Heaven. What if there was no resurrection? What would be the implications for God's people? The preaching of the gospel would be a lie, our faith would be worthless and we would all have remained in our sin. Paul is saying, there would be no cause to his dying daily, or for any one who believed and accept Jesus as their personal Saviour to die daily. Paul was expecting death at any time for Christ's sake. He was constantly in peril of his life, he encountered extreme sufferings and was beset with death. He was willing to die at anytime and in any way for Christ's sake. He did not count his life dear unto himself, but...

 'The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing' (Zephaniah 3 17). What an amazing and wonderful God we serve, who is mighty to save. The Lord our God is with us and is mighty to save. He will take great delight in us and will quiet us with his love, and also rejoice over us with singing. We didn't have to do anything for God to love us, he did because he created us and we are His. He created us and loves us just as we are. Even when we did not deserve it, the Lord took delight in us. What an awesome God! He is present in the midst of us, loving and caring for us. He protects and defend us; died to save us from sin, so we can have life and have it more abundant. He is mighty to save us from fears; our enemies and the bondage of sin and death. We all need a Saviour, Christ the Lord, who is the cure for our problems and the antidote to sin. Christ has already won ...
