Give your burdens to the Lord!

 Psalm 55:22

Give your burdens to the LORD, and He will take care of you. He will not permit the Godly to slip and fall.

God cares for you. He doesn't need you to carry life's burdens on your shoulder, but He is inviting you to bring all your burdens to Him. It may be difficult to do so, as it is human nature to be concerned about things that are not alright, but the reality is that God does not want us to be pre-occupied and worried by issues and matters. As our Father, He has invited us to offload by Him, thus by prayer as described in the book of Philippians 4:6 that says: "Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all He has done." This clearly describes what God expects us to do when we encounter challenges. You pray about it! Tell him what you need, thank Him for what He has already done in the past, thus showing gratitude and recognizing Him that He is able to do all things. This will take the pressure off your shoulders. They say once you have prayed about it, stop worrying about it, because now it will seem as though you don't trust God to handle it. You ought to surrender into His hands and rest, knowing that He heard you and will help you.

Life is too short to worry about anything and everything; doing so takes away time you could be spending loving on your loved ones, being creative with your work or just being...Don't let the enemy steal your precious time, if there's something worrying you, take it to the Lord and leave it there. Be expectant of a positive result. Where God leads you, be obedient so that your answer may manifest.

Our King is alive, He sees and hears you...

 1 Peter 3:18 Christ suffered for our sins once for all time. He never sinned, but He died for sinners to bring you safely home to God. He suffered physical death, but He was raised to life in the Spirit. The recollection about Jesus, is one of the most powerful  story ever. His life story has impacted humanity so much, we just find ourselves in awe and feeling privileged . Jesus died for us, sinners, in order to bring us safely home, to our Father, how amazing is that! He was born to die for us, in order for us not to perish , but to live an eternal life, in communion with our Father (John 3:16). What is wonderful also, is that in as much they crucified Him and He died, He subsequently rose after three days. This means, our King is alive! We serve a King that is alive and infact through  the Holy Spirit, He lives in us! This gives  us boldness that we are not going through life on our own, but we have the Most High living in us and being there with us even in turbulent  times, just li

By knowing Christ, we get a chance of living a life that is pleasing to the Lord.

 2 Peter 1:3 By His divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a Godly life. We have received all of this by coming to know Him, the one who called us to Himself by means of His marvelous glory and excellence. By coming to know Christ, learning about Him in the word, we now have the ability to live a Godly life. This means by God's divine power, He has equipped us with the relevant information and teachings, on how we are to live our lives. The bible tells us that Jesus was sent to be our role model, our example of the things the Lord expects to see in us and to see in our daily walk here on earth. These things allow us to live a life that is acceptable in His eyes. However, God understands that we are not perfect (and we should never pressurize ourselves to be perfect), but with the guidance we have, we know that where we fall short, we can run to the Lord without guilt or shame, knowing that He is our Father who loves us and is willing to help us every step of t

Let us tell of the wonderful things He has done!

 Psalm 9:1 I will praise you, LORD, with all my heart; I will tell of all the marvelous things You have done. And that is called a testimony, telling of the wonderful  things that the Lord has done! With God on our side, we have  an advantage, where we are protected from certain things, where God ochestrates things for us so that they work in our favour (Romans 8:28). He heals us, He provides for us, He opens and closes doors and so much more. Which is why the only two things that we can do to show gratitude for all that He does for us, is first to recognize His role in the whole thing . That in our own strength, we wouldn't have been able to achieve those thigs, gotten favoured or have that opportunity come through. Basically,  giving credit where it is due, and by so doing, we give Him the glory and honour that He deserves. The second thing   that   we  ought to do, is to testify of His goodness in our lives. Us sharing of what we have seen in our lives God doing, can give someon
