 'For the Lord is our Judge, the Lord is our lawgiver, the Lord is our king, he will save us'
( Isaiah 33:22).

The Lord Jesus Christ is our Judge, committed to Him by the Father. He will Judge his people and right their wrongs. He is the One who has written His laws on our hearts and put His right Spirit within us, to enable us to keep them.
The Lord is our king and will save us from all our sins with an everlasting salvation.
Isaiah is reminding us that the Lord is our Judge  and is on our side. He is not looking to condemn us but to save us from our sins. He as our Judge, will judge us right and his judgment will be base on His will and his grace and love.
We ought to be grateful that Christ is indeed our Judge, because He is holy and righteous and we do not have to fear his judgment.
Our future and our life are secure in Him, as our king, when He returns for his people. We ought to recognise and acknowledge Christ as our Judge, Lawgiver and King. He has the right to rule our consciences, to rule and guide us by His Word. He will never fail us, therefore, we should allow Him to guide our path and our footsteps, by His Word. He is the only way of obtaining  salvation.
The Lord is our Judge to whom we are accountable, whose judgment we ought to abide in. He is our King in whom we pay homage, allegiance and tribute, who is able to save us to the utmost. He is our lawgiver and His Word is a law to us, which lead us to Him and we must be in total obedience to Him.
Let us seek the Lord daily  and allow Him to work on our hearts through the power of the Holy Spirit. God is aware of what is taking place in our lives, so we have no need to fear. He has the power and wisdom and love to either allow the situation to run its course or to stop what's happening. Whatever He does is in his time and according to his will and purpose, not ours. Therfore, only trust Him and He will save you.

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...

 'The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him' (Lamentations 3:25). For many people, waiting is not something we like to do. Waiting can bring about stress, anxiety, irritability and impatience at some points in our lives. It can also bring joy, peace, hope and happiness. We all encounter waiting in our different ways, whether its news of a new arrival in the family where there may be complications; news of a health condition; news of a love one pulling through an illness; news of a job promotion; and for believers waiting with hope and anticipation for the coming of Lord Jesus. Here Jeremiah is saying to Israel and to us that, "The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him." What is the benefit of waiting on the Lord? The Lord will renew our strength, he will not allow us to be weary or faint (Isaiah 40:31). He will be good to all who wait upon him. The Lord  will also be good to us when we search for him. W...

 'Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in the present world;' (Titus 2:12). The grace of God brings salvation to all men, seeking a change in our conduct and attitude towards God and one another. It advocates a turning away from sin, and helps the believer in Christ to reject sinful desires and refrain from ungodly living. The grace of God teaches us to avoid behaviours that are sinful and will not enhance our lives; but it is to move us towards right behaviour and right thinking. Paul was instructing Titus to teach   boldly and with authority the conduct and behaviour God expects from His people. To encourage right thinking and behaviour by them living soberly, upright and godly lives. We are also encouraged as Believers in Christ to do the same. We must allow ourselves to be taught by the great Teacher, Jesus Christ, our Lord, through the guidance of the Holy Spirit, as we search the Scriptures daily an...
