Merry Christmas

As we celebrate Christmas, I want us to remember one of my favourite Psalms in the Bible. I wish you a merry Christmas as you reflect, share and enjoy this wonderful message of Psalm 66. Praise God with shouts of Joy all people Sing to the Glory of his name Say to God, how wonderful are the things you do Your power is so great that your enemies bow down in fear before you Everyone on earth worships you They sing praises to your name Come and see what God has done His wonderful acts for mankind He changed the sea into dry land Our ancestors crossed the river on foot There we rejoiced because of what He did He rules forever by His might And keeps His eyes on the nations Let no rebels rise against him Praise our God all nations Let your praise be heard He has kept us alive And has not allowed us to fall You have put us to the test as silver is purified by fire, So you have tested us You let us fall into a trap and placed heavy burdens on our backs You let our enemies trample over us we

He will take care of us

For me December 2006 is like standing at the shores of the red sea with enemies close and no chance of escape. Behind is danger and ahead is uncertainty. But like Moses and the Israelites of old, we can take consolation in Exodus 14 : 13-14, "Don't be afraid, stand your ground and you will see what the Lord will do to save you today, you will never see these Egyptians again, the Lord will fight for you and there is no need for you to do anything." (Good News Bible) Yes, this is the word of God. Our enemies who troubled us in 2006 will be no more, those who wanted us dead physically and spiritually, those who wanted to maim us, injure us and destroy us, those who undermined us in our workplaces and sought our downfall, the hand of the almighty God is against them as He did to the Egyptians of old. Well, don't you like this? I do, God bless you for sharing his word. Amen.

Jehovah Jireh, our provider

Jehovah Jireh is our provider, He takes care of our needs and is good to us. The bible says though the mountains beshaken and the hills be removed his love for us will never fail, that is what drives me in life, I have learn to lean on his word and it is all that I have and hope for.

Patience Moves mountains

It is true that patience moves mountains, but how to have the kind of patience that could move mountains is the big challenge facing contemporary christians. It takes the grace of God not to respond to the kind of behaviour people throw at us as we go about our day to day activiites. My prayer is that may the almighty God grant us the grace, to face the problems of our days and be patient gentle and be able to suffer long for his sake. Amen
