  "Praise the Lord! Praise God in His sanctuary, praise Him in His mighty firmament. Praise Him for His mighty acts, praise Him according to His excellent greatness." We are forgiven even though we are sinners. We thank God for His mercy, we thank God for His love. This verse tells us to praise God. Let us today ask God to allow His word to flow easily from our lips, that we will without hesitation speak highly of Him in every room that we enter. Let us today thank God for the work He has done in our lives, what He is still doing and what He will do in the future. Let us never take God, His creations and His love & mercy toward us for granted. We praise God because He is worthy.  In Jesus name, Amen. 

"O Lord, I will honour and praise Your name , for You are my God. You do such wonderful things!" God is working all of the time, all of the time He is working wonders in our lives, whether we realise it or not. There are so many dangers He protects us from, danger we cannot always see, it never reaches us because His divine hand blocks it before it can touch our lives. God never sleeps, we are constantly on His mind and He is working things out for our good.  How many times have we not gotten what we want and then in hindsight realise we dodged a bullet? well, that's God's hand of protection. How many times have we dreamed small, been willing to settle but then bigger blessings were sent our way - that's God again. How many times have we found ourselves in difficult situations, not seeing a way out and yet today we can stand where we are and look back to where we came from - yes, that's God! All thanks to God , our saviour and friend for all He has done, all H...

  "Happy are those who hear the joyful call to worship, for they will walk in the light of Your presence, Lord...They exult in Your righteousness." How great is it that the Lord of lords, the King of kings invites us to be in and walk in His presence, what an honour that is. We can worship wherever we are. We are not confined to worshipping only on a Sunday in church or only when we get down on our knees to pray - no, God listens to us and wants us to speak to Him and worship in the busyness of our day, at anytime and wherever we are.  I remember my Uni days, we'd sometimes get a lift with one of my friends mom to the bus stop from where we'd take a bus to campus. That car ride with Aunty Patty was a full on praise and worship session! I look back in awe of her energy at that time of the morning, I remember the pure joy she had - singing her way through the traffic, waving to the people we were passing by, she was 100% filled with the spirit.  We can praise the Lord f...

  "Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth."  We have so much to be thankful for and yet we take so much for granted. How many times do we go for routine check-up's at the doctor and leave with the good news that we are fine? As a woman I go for two routine check-up's a year and there is anxiety that comes with it but I kind of assume everything is fine and when I get the results it always has been and that is all thanks to God. The fact that I do not fret about the results is thanks to God too and the faith I have that all will be fine. Sometimes, I do not thank Him immediately and then later it will dawn on me that I'm fine and then the thank-you's go up. God really shouldn't be an after thought.  I always stand in awe of how babies are formed in their mothers womb - ten fingers and toes, eyes, nose, working organs. That alone is a miracle - the fact that in 9 months a woma...

  "Dear friends, never take revenge. Leave that to the righteous anger of God. For the scriptures say, 'I will take revenge, I will pay them back', says the Lord" It's so hard to be still when we feel we have been wronged. It's almost natural to want to react. There has always been fierce debate about the death penalty, do we as human beings have the right to take a life of a person who took the life of another. Christianity is clear on this but does it feel fair? It does not, especially for victims and their families. We see how some families though are able to forgive, it's truly incredible and this is God at work.  As Christians, we are guided by Gods Word. It's clear that God wants us to live in peace and leave revenge to Him. It can be hard to "let things go" but we should remember by choosing peace, we are not condoning the wrong done to us or forgetting the pain suffered at the hand of another. By choosing peace we are freeing ourselve...

  "We know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to His purpose for them." Sometimes we set ourselves up for disappointment. We speak about something too soon, we reveal too much of our plan and then feel bad and embarrassed when things don't work out as we had planned. Often we speak out of excitement around people we think we can trust and that's okay but there is power in keeping some things to ourselves and even more power in taking our hearts desires to God in prayer and asking Him to make provision for them in accordance with His will.  When God makes us wait for something, we can find ourselves feeling frustrated and growing impatient because He is not delivering on our time. We feel stuck, we feel that God is not working, that He has forgotten about us. This is furthest from the truth. Our disappointment is often God's appointment! He never stops working and will reveal His perfect plan to...
