THE LORD IS OUR DELIVERER

In times of trouble, the Lord is able to save us and in times of catastrophe, our Lord is able to restore us.

Our Lord is watchful over His children and cares for us.

Praise His holy name.

Amen. 

OUR LORD KNOWS OUR NEEDS BEFORE WE ASK

Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. -Mathew 6 verse 8

The Lord knows when every sparrow falls and our every hair on our heads are numbered.

With this exacting attention to detail, the Lord could not be unaware of what you need. 

If you put first the Kingdom of God, the Lord will add all other things to you based on His acute understanding of the things you need in your life.

Praise Him who provides for His people.

Amen

OUR LORD WATCHES OVER US

Our Lord is the Good Shepherd. He guides us and keeps watch over us. His Angels are encamped around us.

The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous and His ears are attentive to their cry.

                                 - Psalm 34 verse 15

The Lord treasures the righteous and even their deaths are precious in His sight.

 O saints of God, bless and treasure the Lord for He is Good.

Amen.

OUR LORD WHO ANSWERS PRAYER

In the book of 1 Samuel, the story of a woman named Hannah is told. She was one of two wives of a man named Elkanah. Peninnah, the other wife, had lots of children while Hannah, had none. 

Peninnah made it her business to taunt Hannah over this disparity and as this went on for many years, Hannah was driven to despair.

As tormented as she felt, Hannah maintained decorum and did not respond in kind to Peninnah. Instead, she prayed fervently to God at the temple. She poured out her heart to Him and when Eli, the High Priest of the temple heard her quiet lament, He prayed for her.

Hannah, before long, got pregnant and had  the long awaited  son whom she called Samuel. 

The Lord answers the prayers of His people. 

Amen.

OUR LORD WHO FORGIVES US

The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases. His mercies never come to an end. They are new every morning. Great is your faithfulness. 

                       -  Lamentations 3 verse 22

The Lord is patient with His children and He forgives them as they forgive others who sin against them.  

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.   -   1 John 1 verse 9

Amen.

OUR LORD WHO SETS US FREE

I call upon the One who died upon the tree for me.

Who poured His blood and gave His life to make a way for me

It is You I call for

You I sing for

You paid to set me free

It is you I cry to

You I pray to

You who made me see

Great King of heaven, Mighty Saviour

The veil on earth did rend

You are the One eternal Father

Whose kingdom will not end.

OUR LORD WHO IS OUR EXAMPLE

The Lord Jesus lived among us is such a way that His life could be a perfect model for what our own lives could consist of.

Jesus's life demonstrated humility, servitude, friendship, loyalty, charity, morality, fear of God, graciousness, forgiveness, steadfastness, strength, patience, tenderheartedness, defence of the weak against the strong.

Jesus would minister to people making sure that they were tended to. He would heal them and encourage them. He placed other people above His own needs like rest and His own convenience.

Jesus served people first especially when they humbly asked Him for help. 

Jesus is our example. When interacting with people, we must put their needs above our own.

We must always interact with people in the spirit so as to be aware of opportunities of service that our God provides.

Amen.
