Whatever you are going through, be of good courage for God will strengthen your heart, God’s grace will be sufficient for you in any situation. So do not worry about the messengers Satan sends to buffet you, the thorn in the flesh given to you, for God is bigger than any obstacle that you will face, God’s grace is sufficient for you. Keep the faith!

My brothers and sisters in Christ, it is not an easy walk that we walk with God, but we should strive to walk by faith and not by sight, we should trust God to lead us in the paths of righteousness, so that we would be able to do all that he requires of us. Every day is a challenge, every day, situations confronts us so that we would be tested, to see how faithful we are to God, and many times we fail, but we are committed to abiding in the tent of the Lord, and therefore, we will aim to walk with integrity, and to do works of righteousness and even though we may stumble, as long as we are trusting in God, his right hand will hold us up, so that we may be able to abide in his tent and dwell in his tabernacle, all the days of our lives.

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. To fear the Lord does not mean that you should be afraid of Him, but that you should reverence Him, and serve Him faithfully in spirit and in truth. When we meditate on God’s words we grow spiritually, it revives the soul and rejoices the heart. When we carefully observe the statutes of the Lord and keep them, our reward is great. Praise the Lord!

My brothers and sisters in Christ, the world and all that is in it, is passing away, you could live without it all, but, you cannot live without God. Therefore, forsake everything and anything for a life with Christ, because if you have Jesus, you have everything.

My brothers and sisters in Christ, God saved you and I for his own purpose. The enemy will try to lead us back to the paths of sin we once tread, but know that he is a deceiver, all that the world offers will not last, but travel on with God before you, listen to the sound that saved you, the voice that whispered, “Child come home.”

Know that, they that wait upon the Lord, shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint, so teach us Lord, to patiently wait on you for the desires of our hearts.

Just look around you, just think of the many ways God has been lifting you up. He has been making roadways for you in the desert, he has been preparing tables before you in the presence of your enemies, he has been renewing your strength every morning, and he has been loving you, even when you have been unlovely. Stand right where you are and give God a praise!

My brothers and sisters in Christ, God is able! God is able to plant your feet on higher ground. You just need to submit yourself to God and let His love lift you up. He lifted me up when I was sinking deep in sin, and now, I’m pressing on the upward way, new heights I’m gaining every day, no higher plane, that I have found, for my Lord is planting my feet on higher ground. Thank you, Lord!

My brothers and sisters in Christ, we are expected to treat our families and close friends well, but God is saying to us that there is no profit in this. We must cast our bread upon the waters, cast our bread far and wide to strangers, expecting nothing in return and our reward from Him will be great. Praise the Lord!

Know that if you are ashamed of God’s word, He will be ashamed of you. Let us pledge today, that, even when we are in chains that we will speak the word of God boldly, that we will stand up for what believe, that we will speak the word of God without fear of what man can do to us, for they could hurt our bodies, but never our souls, because God is in control. If we are persecuted for righteousness sake, we are blessed. Praise the Lord!
