 'Teach me thy way, O Lord: I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear your name' (Psalm 86:11)

The fear of the Lord is not natural in the heart of man; but when we walk in the Lord's truth with a united heart we will reverence Him.
We must ask of the Lord to teach us His way - the way of his commandments, his grace and salvation.
We cannot unite our hearts to fear the Lord, because of our sinfulness, it is the Lord who has given us such a heart to fear Him.
When we are in trouble and perplexity, look to the Lord for help and teaching. He will teach us His wisdom and mercy, that we may walk in His truth.  As we are taught by the Lord, we must practice that which we have been taught, and let it saturate our heart and mind and soul.
Like David, we can ask the Lord to unite our hearts to fear his name. To fear God is the beginning of wisdom; it is also growth and maturity of wisdom.
We are to search the Scriptures daily and conform to it, as we walk in the Lord's truth. Our lives must be a living testimony to the truth of God.
We must seek to be obedient to the will of God; to walk in His truth; to unite out hearts to fear  his name; having the mind of Christ, having one view and purpose -  that of the Lord.
Let us not turn our backs on Christ, but ask him to teach us his way, reflect on His Word daily and receive the high calling of the Lord.
Let us pray earnestly for the Lord to do these things in our lives, so we can help others to walk in truth and honour Him in every faucet of their lives.
If you do not have a relationship with God, now is the time to do so and allow the Lord to lead your life and unite your heart to fear Him.

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 ...
