Psalm 30:11 Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness; When Christ proclaimed the reason for His coming as prophesied by Isaiah many in the synagogue at that time looked up expectantly. Hope was awakened. (Luke 4) Of course they saw healings, great teaching and many wonderful works yet they did not recognize the biggest of all. The sacrifice of Himself to set man free from the law of sin and death. Glory to God. We live today free because of what He did. As we continue to praise Him for all the pockets of blessings here and there, let us remember the greatest of all. "That we may be called the children of God. " 1John 3:1  Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. Glory to God. Listen, none of those challenges you are facing now can ever weigh up to that which the Lord has conquered for u...

Psalm 29:2 Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness. The Supremacy and Sovereign power of the Heavenly Father cannot be overemphasized. For we live in times when man has been so distracted away from His maker for even though it seems they call His name, their heart actually is somewhere else. Most people even most believers feel that the Lord is quiet. Yes for many have not learnt to hear His Voice speak to them. It reminds us of the first encounter of the people of Israel with the Lord on Mount Sinai: Exodus 20:18-19 And all the people saw the thunderings, and the lightnings, and the noise of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking: and when the people saw [it], they removed, and stood afar off. And they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear: but let not God speak with us, lest we die. (Do read chapters 19 and 20) Many who say today "Thus says the Lord", how many of them have really heard the voice of the Lord. ...

 Psalms 28:7 The Lord is my strength and shield. I trust him with all my heart. He helps me, and my heart is filled with joy. I burst out in songs of thanksgiving. Truly the Lord has kept us, for if we had looked at man we wonder where we will be. It is foolishness to trust in man, yes there are people who help us but it is the Lord that gives grace. Who can we really trust, that person with a smile on their face could actually harbour evil, hate, jealousy or malice in their heart. Psalms 28:3b those who speak friendly words to their neighbors while planning evil in their hearts. Yes, we have good people in this world, it is great if the Lord leads you to them, but many evil ones aboud, may there be a purging! Why do we have fighting, troubles and wickedness in the world? Those who refuse to focus on their path, who do not know their purpose but feel that they must interfere or overtake someone else. They compare themselves and are not content, so they steal what belongs to others ...

Psalm 27:1 The LORD [is] my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD [is] the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? Matthew 10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. Some even in the household of faith misplace the position of fear. There is no place in scriptures where we are told to fear the enemy. Our fear should only be of our God, yes the Heavenly Father. Psalm 27:3 Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this [will] I [be] confident. For man and powers can boast of many things but power belongs to the Lord. Psalm 62:11 God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power [belongeth] unto God. For He is the one that has the power of life and death, the one who has authority over this life and the one after. The Almighty God. Many who make so much noise about the enemies and their pow...

Psalms 26:2 Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart. There is this continual argument over grace and law. Does one stay without the other? No matter what the argument is, the right thing is always to settle for what the scripture teaches. What is your grace for? Is it a licence to sin? Let us hear from the apostle of grace himself: Romans 6:1&2 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? And again: Romans 8:13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. Colossians 3:5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: Grace allows you to make the right choice, just as David said: Psalm 26:3&4 For thy lovingkindness [is] before mine eyes: and I have walked i...

Psalm 25:9-10 The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.  All the paths of the LORD [are] mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies. We know that the greatest glory is not in this present world but the one after here. Though many of us (including me writing) may have become so conscious of this present place. However where we are headed after here is more important. The Lord who promised us long life is also interested in our stay here too. That is why Christ said to the faithful: Luke 18:30 Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, and in the world to come life everlasting. Halleluyah. It is the proud that would assume that they could live without God it is mere foolishness. Listen to Sennacherib's experience: Isaiah 37:10-11 “This message is for King Hezekiah of Judah. Don’t let your God, in whom you trust, deceive you with promises that Jerusalem will not be captured by the king of Assyria.  You know perf...
