Devotional - 24th Dec 2021

 'Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man' (Psalm 108:12).

It is God whom we should seek help from in times of trouble and not man. The help of man is useless and will bring disappointment.
When our confidence in man is gone, we have to pray with every ounce of confidence in God. We shall not find it vain to seek the help of God.
It  is the Devil who is the cause of all our troubles. God allows it because He wants us to trust Him totally.
1 Peter 5:8 says, "Be Sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walked about  seeking whom he may devour."
It is God who can help you in difficult situations, not man, whose help is in vain. Therefore, you ought to trust God and not man.
Today if you're facing a difficult situation or trouble, ask God to help you through these tough times; pray and place it in His hands, because He is faithful and will deliver you.
We are living in a world of sin where everyone is for themself. People's heart are so cold and evil and trouble is just a natural consequence of this sinful world, where Satan is battling for our minds.
We surely need the Lord, more than ever before. With Him we will do valiantly.
It is from the Lord that we get our strength and can do all things through Christ.
Let us put our confidence in the Lord, rather than man, as we rely on the Lord for our strength.
Without the Lord we can do nothing, but through Him we can be victorious and accomplish great things.
Let us learn from David, how to truly praise the Lord, as we bring ourselves in a right relationship with Him.
Listen! Hand your troubles over to the Lord with confidence because he shall tread down your enemies and make you victorious. Trust God! He is ever faithful and will not let us down.

Have a wonderful day and a blessed weekend.
Happy holidays!

 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 ...
