TRUST-3


 TEXT:Psalm 125:1

 They that trust in the LORD shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever.

Today, we shall be looking at one of the blessings that comes upon those that put their trust in the Lord.  It is the blessing of abiding like mount Zion. Psalms 125:1 says "They that trust in the LORD shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abides for ever." 

Just as mount Zion cannot be removed, so also shall those whose trust are in the Lord. 

 Everything and everyone whose roots are not established in God shall be removed, but those that trust in the Lord shall not be moved.

While every other thing or person you may put your trust in are visible, the invisible God is the only whom you cannot see but the only one who is worth your full trust. 

You are like what you put your trust in. So, when you put your trust in God who abides forevermore, then you also will abide forevermore. (John 6:47).

Isaiah 26:4 affirms this: Trust ye in the LORD for ever: for in the LORD JEHOVAH is everlasting strength:

You need to start exercising yourself to always put your trust in the Lord. He is the only one who has immortality, and dwells in the light which no man can approach... (1Timothy 6:16).

Though, God is an invisible One, yet He interferes in both visible and invisible realms. Hence, when you trust in God, it is certain you will never be moved, even in the face of difficulty.

As the year is running to an end, the Lord will like  you to set your mind on Him, even as you trust in Him for a glorious  2025. 

Surely, you shall not be put to shame.

Bible reading:

Psalms 125:1-2.

 PRAYER FOCUS

1.) Father Lord, I receive grace to trust in you at all times in Jesus name.

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...
