A VERY PRESENT HELP 2

Text : Psalms  46:1 

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

That God has used someone to be a blessing to you doesn't make the fellow your source of blessing. Ultimately,  God is your source.* 

God is the only help that can never fail. Be grateful for help received from man, but don't look up to man for help. If God did not help you, man cannot help you, because vain is the help of man. (2 Kings 6:27, Psalms 60:11).

At times, men can be of help to you (because God permitted it so), but man will never be there always.

Infact, most times, man always disappear when you need him the most. The only ever present help is God.

Jeremiah 17:5 says: *“Cursed is the person who trusts in mankind, who makes flesh his strength, and whose heart turns away from the LORD.* 

In this life, you will always need help, but your only assured help,  which will never disappoint is God.

God is your refuge and strength, your very present help in trouble,  cling onto Him. Look unto Him for all of your help, and be rest assured that He can use even your enemy to be a blessing to you.

Bible  Reading:

Psalms 46:1-11.

PRAYER FOCUS

1.) Father God, please send me help from your Holy sanctuary for vain is the help of man.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

WAY MAKER-2

Text: Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing: now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it?  I will even make a way in the wilderness,  and rivers in the desert. God promised that He will do a new thing for you, and that He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He has done this before, and He will do it again even in your own life.  When the children of Israel left Egypt, the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them, encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.(Exodus 14:9). Just like anyone would react, the Isrealites became so fearful because there is neither way forward nor back for them to escape. Before them was the red sea, behind them were the Egyptian armies. They became perplexed and began to murmur against Moses. It is possible you are also in a situation like the Israelites- No way forward, and no way behind. Things may appear like you are ...

HIS VOICE- 2

Text : John 10:3. To him the porter opens; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out. We established yesterday that one thing you can't joke with as a true follower of Christ is *His Voice.* You must recognise and hearken to (obey) His voice. It is in doing this that your safety is assured.  Today, we want to see another responsibility of the Shepherd over His sheep.  To him the porter opens; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calls his own sheep by name, *and leads them out.* John 10:3.  He called you, that He might lead you. It is not enough for you to hear or recognise His Voice, you must allow Him to lead you as well.  Romans 8:14 says *For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.*   The Spirit leading you determines the family you belong to. Basically,  there are only two families in this world - the family of God, and the family of satan. In other words, we can say the Kingdom...
