THE LORD IS MY HELP


Text:  Psalms 121:2


 *My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth!* 


 *Real, lasting and true help only comes from the Lord.* Any help that is not sent from and by the Lord will not be able to resolve your problems. The Psalmist knew this too well and he prayed thus: *Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man(Psalms  60:11).* Man may give you help, but it will not achieve so much if God is not in it, in fact the Psalmist said that help from man is vain.


Though God will not come down physically to help you, but he does send His help to us through man and angelic assistance. *When you realise that all your help comes from God, you will become more frequent and fervent in prayers,*  for that is the only surest medium to receiving help from God. 


There is no single man on the earth that does not need help on a continuous basis. The only difference is that some admit their need for help while some don't. Those who admit their need for help are "the humble" and those who do not are "the proud"  *While the humble always look up to God for help, the proud is always sufficient in himself.* 


Just as it is not possible to look up and down simultaneously, so also you cannot be looking unto God and man for help at the same time. Though, God will use a medium to help you, but you must not set your gaze on any man for help. Several reasons will always bring about dissapointment when your gaze is always set on man for help. 


Are you in need of help today? 

Have you trusted in man's help and you have been dissapointed? I have a good news for you. Jesus, the great Helper is always and readily available to help you. He will arrive just in time. He will fix you up. He will truly give you a lasting help. 


Help is on the way for you TODAY!


 *PRAYER FOCUS* 


1. Father Lord, forgive me for trusting in the help of man.


2. Father Lord, send me your help today.

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

WHEN GOD IS SILENT(2)

Text: Matthew 4:1  *Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.*  We saw yesterday that God was not pleased with many israelites that left Egypt for the promised land  (Corinthians 10:5).  A good percentage of the Israelites were overthrown in the wilderness.   Wilderness experience is not what any child of God desires, but it is an experience God sends or allows his children go through. In Deuteronomy 8:2, God says that He *LED* the Isrealites through the wilderness for forty years to humble them, to prove them, and to know what was in their heart whether they would keep his commandments or not.  Our Lord Jesus Christ was also *LED* into the wilderness by the Spirit of the Lord to be tempted by the devil. You will  notice there is a similar feature of the number *40(forty)* between these two wilderness experiences. That is, that of the Israelites and our Lord Jesus Christ. The Israelites spent 40years, Jesu...

GULLIBLE BUT INTELLIGENT

Text : Mat 25:31-32  *When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:*   *And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:*  Have you ever wondered why Jesus compared His followers to sheep and not goats?  Sheep has reputation for being stupid, defenceless and harmless creatures that mope about on hillsides doing not very much. They are good for two things: being eaten and producing wool. According to a study by Keith Kendrick, he said in reality, Sheep are actually surprisingly intelligent, with impressive memory and recognition skills. They build friendships, stick up for one another in fights, and feel sad when their friends are  sent to slaughter. The truth is that sheep are far smarter than we know., All these reasons and more are the basis for Jesus' comparism of His followers with sh...
