Isaiah 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue [that] shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This [is] the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness [is] of me, saith the LORD. This prophecy made to the children of Israel long time ago is not limited to them but it applies to all that the Lord calls righteous, we understand that God's righteousness is in Christ Jesus. So we are called righteous by God in Christ Jesus. Glory. Are there battles, yes, most times we are not aware of them. Do we have to worry, NO, why? God sends His warring angels to fight these battles and most times we have No knowledge of it. When Christ died as we remember this season, He said it is finished. He paid the full price for our sins delivering us from the power of sin and death. He resurrected given us total victory over the enemy. So as He died, we died to sin and death and as He rose, we rise into everlasting life. Glory to God. G...

Ephesians 6:10 Finally, build up your strength in union with the Lord and by means of his mighty power. Where does your strength lie? After all said and done, one will need to prove where one's strength lies. Is it during times of challenges, trials, even in times of peace, much work or when one is at rest? Where your anchor is rested, will definitely be questioned and tested. David was a king with great military might and with soldiers who could give their life for him yet he said: Psalms 20:7& 8 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God. They are brought down and fallen: but we are risen, and stand upright. Isaiah said: Isaiah 31:1 Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help; and stay on horses, and trust in chariots, because they are many; and in horsemen, because they are very strong; but they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the LORD! Be careful who and where you seek for help. The long term is important ...

Lamentations 3:22-23 The faithful love of the Lord never ends! His mercies never cease. Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each morning. Psalms 5:3 My voice You shall hear in the morning, O Jehovah; in the morning I will direct my prayer to You, and I will look up. Can we exhaust the love of God towards us? No, for He makes it possible for us to: * be alive today * be in good health * have food and can eat * have sense organs and can use them * have people around us, and we can communicate with them * have something to act on (even worry about) * be saved through His Grace in Christ Jesus * come boldly to His throne of grace (Hebrews 4:16) . . . the list is endless! What of our family, source of income and many other things. He now crowns it all with eternal assurance for those who believe. What a great God. Hebrews 13:15 By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name. Can we take today...

1 Peter 1:8-9(NLT) You love him even though you have never seen him. Though you do not see him now, you trust him; and you rejoice with a glorious, inexpressible joy. The reward for trusting him will be the salvation of your souls. Great things are conceived not by what has been seen but by what has not been seen. High flyers, achievers and inventors are not those who walk by what they see but those who have not yet seen but believed. So it is with the Heavenly Father we have not physically seen Him but we believe, for He has displayed Himself with every of His creation. Romans 1:19-20 They know the truth about God because he has made it obvious to them. For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God. These things are not a coincidence, just the same way our conception and birth is not a coincidence. This sa...

Galatians 3:22 But the Scriptures declare that we are all prisoners of sin, so we receive God’s promise of freedom only by believing in Jesus Christ. Yes for it is by faith we are saved through grace. The grace of God.  Ephesians 2:8-9 God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. (we will read verse 10 later)  Where then, is the mix up? Romans 6:1-2,6-7,11-15 Well then, should we keep on sinning so that God can show us more and more of his wonderful grace? Of course not! Since we have died to sin, how can we continue to live in it? We know that our old sinful selves were crucified with Christ so that sin might lose its power in our lives. We are no longer slaves to sin. For when we died with Christ we were set free from the power of sin. So you also should consider yourselves to be dead to the power of sin and alive to God th...

1 Peter 4:10(NLT) God has given each of you a gift from his great variety of spiritual gifts. Use them well to serve one another. Yes, Spiritual gifts are given not for decoration, not for boasting or to be used to take advantage of another but to serve one another. There is no one who has received the new birth that is not endowed with God's gifts. None. Ephesians 4:8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men. The gifts remain useless to us until we release the same in blessing or edifying the brethren or leading those who are outside into the fold. No gift is useless, or small, every gift has its significance and when utilized by the power of the Holy Spirit can cause great exploits to God's kingdom on earth. 1 Corinthians 12:4-11(NLT) There are different kinds of spiritual gifts, but the same Spirit is the source of them all. There are different kinds of service, but we serve the same Lord. God works in diff...
