The Day of The Lord is Near


Zephaniah 1:7

Be silent before the Lord God, for the day [of the vengeance] of the Lord is near; for the Lord has prepared a sacrifice, and He has set apart [for His use] those who have accepted His invitation.

We are His invited guests, chosen ones, set apart from the crowd. Let us be silent (stand still) with our ears inclined towards His instructions, walk in obedience and follow His ways as the day of the Lord is near.

Wisdom From Above

James 3:17 - "But the wisdom from above is first of all pure (undefiled); then it is peace- loving, courteous (considerate, gentle). [It is willing to] yield to reason, full of compassion and good fruits; it is wholehearted and straightforward, impartial and unfeigned (free from doubts, wavering, and insincerity"


God’s wisdom is superior than the wisdom of this world – It is pure, then peace-loving, gentle, willing to yield, full of compassion, good deeds, and without a trace of partiality or hypocrisy.

The bible says that the worldy wisdom is self-centered, and demonic, creates jealousy and bitterness in our hearts (Jas 3:14 & 15)

And the wisdom of God is freely available to all of us and we don’t have to qualify to get access to His wosdom, the blood of Jesus has qualified us already, so we got to simply ask as we read in - James 1:5 "Now if any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives to everyone generously without a rebuke, and it will be given to him" and also P
roverbs 2:6 says - "For the LORD gives wisdom, and from his mouth come knowledge and understanding."

Let’s be prudent and ask God to fill us with his ‘divine’ wisdom so that we could lead a successful and victorious life here on earth, accomplishing great and mighty things for His glory.

Have A Blessed Day!

Crown of Glory

Isaiah 62:3 - "You shall also be a crown of glory In the hand of the Lord, And a royal diadem In the hand of your God."



“Crown” is given to those who had won an athletic contest, the crown given to a soldier for valour in combat, or the crown worn by a king. In any case, it rewarded an extraordinary achievement. However, even though our salvation is a gift we do not earn, our God not only promises eternal life to those who follow His Son, He promises many extra rewards to those who obey Him. Jesus promised that those who would leave everything to follow Him would receive a hundredfold reward in addition to eternal life (Mark 10:29–31).

Though we must not forget that we do not earn our salvation, this verse shows that God’s faithful servants can expect a reward. When we, whether or not we are ordained elders, faithfully care for those under our authority, we can expect to receive an unfading crown of glory. He promises His faithful servants rewards for their obedience.

Let's ask the Lord to help us live in gratitude for these blessings and use them to glorify Him. As the word of God says “When the chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the unfading crown of glory” (1 Peter 5:4).

Have A Blessed Day!

Presence of God

Psalms 16:11 - "You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore."



God's presence provides comfort in times of trouble (or anxiety) and when we seek Him we find encouragement and strength to praise Him. Knowing God is present will keep our behaviour respectful and humble, for God hears our every word and holds us accountable. He will not tolerate pride, and will bring our speech under his judgment. However, He will exalt those who humble themselves before Him.

God also displayed His presence as a place of worship. The Bible describes heaven as a place filled with God's presence. Angels stand in God's presence and act on His authority as He directs them. Christ completed His earthly ministry by entering "heaven itself, now to appear for us in God's presence".

God's presence is a place where prayer is heard. David sought the Lord's presence when Israel faced a three-year famine. We can approach the Lord with confidence because of Christ's finished work on our behalf. Furthermore, God promises to hear and forgive those who come into his presence with humble repentance.

And God's presence is also a place of blessing. David counted it a joy to experience the Lord's presence, and Peter described it as the source of blessing for all who place their faith in Christ. To experience God's presence is to experience the shining of God's face (Psalm 67:1) and He has promised to be with us until He comes again.

Let's strive to be in God's presence as this is the ultimate place of blessing, which will motivate us to be faithful in all that we do.

Have A Blessed Day!

Who Is Like Our God?

Psalms 113:-5-9 - "Who is like the Lord our God, who is seated on high, who looks far down on the heavens and the earth? He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap, to make them sit with princes, with the princes of his people. He gives the barren woman a home, making her the joyous mother of children. Praise the Lord."



The God of the Bible has no equal. He is eternal and has created all things. To what can He be compared? Actually, this question has already been asked in Scripture, by God Himself: “To whom then will you compare me, that I should be like him? says the Holy One” (Isaiah 40:25). The clear answer to this question echoes throughout Scripture: “Therefore You are great, O Lord GOD. For there is none like You, nor is there any God besides You” (2 Samuel 7:22).

Yes, humans are made in the image or likeness of God, but that does not make us like (i.e., equal to) God. God is unique from every other being and thing because He alone is infinite and uncreated. We are finite, but the Lord has no beginning or end. Scripture states, “Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever You had formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God” - (Psalms 90:2)

David understood the greatness of God when he asked, “What is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of man that You visit him?” (Psalm 8:4). When we consider the incomparably awesome Creator God and the fact that He loves you and me, we should fall to our knees in humble worship.

Let's acknowledge our position of utter dependence on the great I AM for there is no God like our God.

Have A Blessed Day!

God Is My Help - Our Only Source

Psalms 54:4 – “Surely God is my help; the Lord is the one who sustains me”


Today we might be facing a situation or going through a time where everything seems to be working against us. A condition where our knowledge, ability, and strength ceases and the only option that we have is to surrender to the circumstances.

This is the time that we need to lift our voices to God who not only hears us but also knows and understands our condition better and He has the answer/solution for what we are facing right now.

And many times during these challenging times we tend to focus more on the circumstances than the solution provider, we try to find solution through the created things than the Creator Himself - "I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth." - Psalms 121:1-2
God is our help and He is able to do exceedingly and abundantly more than what we can ever ask or imagine/even think of. He can turn the tables around, turn the situation favorable to us and keep us safe because of His loving kindness and tender mercies.

So let’s reach out to Him and ask Him to intervene into our lives today and lets' completely believe that our help comes from God and God alone.

Have A Blessed Day!

God Bless

The Trust Factor

Psalms 37:5 - "Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will act."



Trusting God is simply believing that He loves you, He’s good, He has the power to help you, He wants to help you, and He will help you. Christians are called believers, but many times, we are more like unbelieving believers. We trust our friends, the bank, the stock market or the government more than we trust God and His Word.

In John 15:5, Jesus says that apart from Him, we can do nothing. We need to lean on Him for help with everything in our lives.

Sometimes we do get what you want, only to discover that it doesn't make us happy after all, just disillusioned. Many of us repeat this cycle our entire life, wondering what we're doing wrong and we should know.

The Secret is in the 'Doing' - A spiritual secret exists that can free us from this cycle: Trusting God.

The secret lies in putting this truth into practice, by making it such a powerful theme in our life that we view every event, every sorrow, every prayer with the unshakable conviction that God is totally, spotlessly trustworthy.

Proverbs 3:5-6 says, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths."

Life is simple and peaceful when we come to God like little children and say, “God, I don’t want to live on my own. I want to trust You. When I don’t know what to do, I’ll trust You. When I don’t understand why, I’ll trust You. I’ll do my part with Your help, and when I’m done, I’ll trust You to do the rest.”

Have A Blessed Day!
