No place found for them ! The curse of rebellion


 God declared through the prophet Samuel that , " rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft and stubbornness as bad as worshipping idols. So because you have rejected the word of the Lord, He has rejected you as king." 1 Samuel 15:23. God said this in reference to King Saul 🀴🏽, but this apply to all who will not obey the Word of the Lord and choose their own path in life. Anyone who continues to reject the Word of the Lord in any particular in their lives will soon find themselves rejected by God. Lucifer found that out the hard way .


Revelation 12:7,8. And there was war in heaven: Michael and His angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, and prevailed not ; neither was their place found anymore in heaven. The Devil and his Angels lost their place in heave, but why πŸ€”? Because they went to war against God ? But why πŸ€”? Why would the Devil make war against His Creator and hope to win πŸ€”? What kind of war was it ? Was it a physical war ? What was his aim ? What caused him to be so unhappy ? How could an angel lose his place in heaven when he was created to live there πŸ€”? Friends, these are very important questions and I will attempt to bring some clarity.

God created Lucifer who became the Devil as a covering Cherub, a powerful order of angels. Lucifer was the highest angel in heaven. He stood in the presence of the great Creator and cover His throne with His wings. You can say Lucifer was God's prime minister, revealing His will to the other Angels and other worlds. But Lucifer found this position to be too little for his ambitions, he wanted a higher place in life, he coveted the position of Christ Himself, Lucifer wanted to be like God. He became disatisfied with hiss place, his lot in life. He left his place in the presence of God to spread disafection among the angels and stir up rebellion. 

Lucifer convinced 1/3 of the angels that God was unjust, that their position in life was not fair and that they deserve a higher place. He convinced them that submission to the will of God was a restriction of their liberty and that true freedom rested in being independent from God and do whatever you think will make your life better. And so war broke out in heaven, not a physical war , for no one can physically fight against the Sovereign Lord. But a war of ideas, a war against God's Word, a war against obedience and submission and as a result Lucifer and his angels were cast out from heaven, from the presence of the Lord. 

Lucifer and his angels lost their place in heaven! Was it because God was vengeful? No! They lost their place because they left their place of their own accord. Lucifer wasn't satisfied with God's appointed place for Him. He wanted a higher place, but the place he wanted was already occupied by God. So think about it! If you leave your place to get a place that is already occupied by someone stronger than you and you refuse to budge, refuse to submit to your place, you will end up out of place and kicked out. Lucifer refused to return to His place and as a result lost his place in heaven, for there was no where else to put him. 

And so it with us. If we will not accept the spot appointed for us by God in this life, we will find no place for us. God is a God of order and He has established order in heaven and in the earth for the wellbeing of His creation. On the earth He has established governments to rule on His behalf.  Those who rebel against government are in reality rebelling against God who has appointed the government. Rebelling against government can lead to severe consequences such as imprisonment and death. Losing your place in life . God has appointed leaders in the church. Better to pray for church leaders doing wrong than to rebel and trying to usurp their authority. 

Like David, let us say "we will not touch the Lord's anointed when he had the opportunity to kill King Saul who was seeking to take his life." David submitted to God's will for his life and wouldn't do anything contrary to that will.  God has appointed leadership in the home 🏑. Husband, wife, children.  The husband is the head of the wife, both parents rule over the children. The wife is to submit to her husband, children submit to their parents . But in our society we have widespread rebellion. War in the homes. Women are not content with their place appointed by God and children are also in rebellion.


Our society teaches rebellion. Everyone is in revolt, everyone is seeking a higher place and as a result majority of people are depressed and unhappy.  Many men refused to submit to Christ, they want to rule over their own lives, they usurp Christ's role in their lives. When a man refuse to submit to Christ, he will soon find no place in Christ. Many women refuse to submit to their husbands, they want to be independent, making their own decisions. As result many of these women find themselves without a husband, finding no place in marriage for them. For submission to God and His will is the only way to find a place in His love, protection and dwelling place .

Friends, "rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft. " To rebel against God's will is the same as worshipping devils, for you are following their example. To not submit to God's appointed authority in our lives is Devil worship, for we are following their examples and as a result we will find ourselves cast out of the will of God, the only place of safety and true joy. Friends, no matter difficult we may find the will of God to be, instead of rebelling let us pray for humble spirit, a spirit of submission. No matter how unjust the leaders in your life may be, pray for them and pray for yourself to have a humble spirit. 

In the end, the message is this, let us all submit to God. Husband submit to Christ, wife submit to your husband, children submit to your parents, employees submit to your managers, church members submit to the leaders, citizens submit to the political leaders ,slaves submit to your masters . For in submission we develop a humble character that fits us for heaven. " For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft." To rebel against God's will in your life is to follow Satan's example, it is to leave your appointed place in life and "no place will be found in heaven for you," for the rebellious will not enter God's dwelling place. Let our prayers be, Lord help me to be content with my place in life, help me to submit to your will completely πŸ™πŸΎ

The blessings of submission

 We live in the time when pride and arrogance is the norm. Our generation is a proud and godless generation and as a result misery of all types is on the increase. Pride is a curse in  any heart where it is found. Pride destroyed a beautiful angel and it will destroy any heart which allows it to foster. Pride is the root cause of every toxic relationship and the failure of many relationships. As our society is becoming more proud, as more people are seeking to exalt themselves above one another, know for certain that relationships will become more difficult to maintain .


The story of Hagar is an interesting one. Hagar was the slave girl of Sarah, Abraham's wife. Abraham and Sarah had no children and the Lord had promised to make Abraham a great nation. But Sarah, lacking faith in the promise, convinced Abraham to take her Egyptian servant Hagar as a second wife. Side note, in the Bible most people who had two wives had great difficulties, bad experiences. Having more than one wife is a horrible experience even for a King . So Abraham listened to his wife Sarah and took Hagar as a second wife πŸ‘°πŸ½ and as soon as Hagar got pregnant 🀰🏾, problems arised in the home. 

Hagar now thought she was better than Sarah and she began to look down on her mistress. Maybe she was saying I am the one who has bored Abraham a child. I am better than you Sarah, and soon I may replace you as first wife . I don't need to respect you anymore, I am the true wife and not you. The Bible said in Genesis 16:4, " and he went in unto Hagar, she conceived: and when she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes ." Pride became the downfall of Hagar, she forgot her place in life, she forgot that she was Sarah's servant.


"Pride goes before a fall and a haughty spirit before destruction. " Hagar became proud and she forgot the source of her pregnancy. She forgot it was Sarah who convinced Abraham to take her as his mistress. Hagar bit the hand that fed her and misery came into her life as a result . Sarah brought the issue up to Abraham and he said she is your servant, deal with her as you please. Sarah began to deal harshly with Hagar, the home became a toxic place for her and she fled the home πŸƒπŸ½‍♀️

But the Lord had compassion upon Hagar. In our distress God sees us and desire to rescue us. So the angel of the Lord found Hagar in the wilderness and ask her where was she going? She said she was fleeing from Sarah, her mistress. But the angel told her to go back to her mistress 😦, and submit to her πŸ˜₯. Here it is, that dreadful word to a proud and arrogant generation," submission. " In telling Hagar to submit to her mistress, the angel was showing the true cause of her distress, a proud and arrogant spirit . And for many of us, this is the true cause of our distress, a proud and arrogant spirit .

Sarah was her mistress and it was, as one my friend like to say," her biblical responsibility to submit to her mistress." But she exalted herself above her mistress and misery was the result. Many marriages collapse because of lack of submission. Marriage is a three part relationship,  it includes first the Lord, the husband and then the wife. The husband submits to Christ, the wife submit to the husband.  But many husbands refuse to submit to Christ and many wives refuse to submit to their husbands. As a result misery, divorce, abuse rule in many homes . The way to a beautiful life is through submission. The angel told Hagar to submit first before he told her about her blessing 🀱🏽

Friends, if you want to experience true joy in life and want to truly enjoy God's blessing for your life, then learn the art of submission. First submit yourself to God daily. Daily come to the Lord and say Lord help me to submit to you in all areas of my life. Then submit to God's appointed leaders in your life. God has appointed leaders so that things can be in order. God is a God of order and order involve hierarchy. So submit to God's appointed leader. Children submit to your parents, wives submit to your husbands. Employees submit to your managers. Slaves submit to your masters. Citizens submit to the rulers . Church members submit to the elders, pastors etc.


When we submit to God's appointed leaders, it is to God Himself we are submitting and the Lord will greatly bless us like He blessed Hagar and made her a mother of many nations. So friends, let us learn to first submit to God and then we will have the humility to submit and not rebel against God's appointed leaders. Show me someone who doesn't like the word submission and I will show you a proud and arrogant person, who's life will be hard. But even that person God is looking to bless and the key to receiving God's blessings is through submission.  Let our prayers be, Lord help me to submit and enjoy the beauty of submission πŸ™πŸΎ

Loving you from afar ?


 In Revelation 21:8 the Bible named the "cowards" among those who will suffer the second death 😲. What is a coward?  According to the online dictionary,  " a coward is a person who lacks the courage to do or endure dangerous or unpleasant things." Love  is one of those dangerous and unpleasant things. We are living in a selfish, individualistic world and to love in such a world is a very dangerous undertaking. Love by definition expose us to great suffering. A heartbreak, a betrayal can be more severe than a gunshot or a wound by a sword. So as a result many people flee away from love so they can feel safe, the coward way of life .


Loving others is hard, dangerous and can be a very unpleasant experience at times. Many Christians realised it . But as Christians we have a major problem. What problem is that ? Jesus, our Savior commanded us to love each other as He has loved us, He commanded us to love our enemies, to pray for those who persecute us and despitefully use us πŸ˜₯. We have a major problem, we want to obey our Lord and yet we don't want to expose ourselves to the pain, the hurt that comes with loving others unconditionally. So we come up with a stone that will strike two birds at once, we say haha, "I got it!" From now on, "I will love others from afar." I will obey Christ and spare myself hurt at the same time.

We think we have finally solved the dangerous dilemma of love ❤ in a dangerous and selfish world. We think we have finally outsmart the Lord. We will love those who are "toxic, unlovable, difficult etc.. but from afar. And so we separate ourselves from anyone whom we have differences with. At the first sign of difficulty in a friendship, a relationship, we flee to protect our little hearts from getting hurt, to protect our " mental health." And yet we deceive ourselves into thinking we are following the Lord Jesus. Deceive ourselves into thinking we are on our way to heaven, when the truth is we are simply displaying our cowardice, our fear of love .

And so we watch as many friendships, many relationships, many ministries, many churches are broken apart because of cowardice. People claimed to love each other,  but the moment difficult times come, they flee like "rats from a sinking ship" πŸ€ to avoid being hurt. Instead of reaching out to the other person and have difficult conversations, unpleasant conversations and do all in their powers to restore the broken relationship, they say " I will spare myself the suffering that comes with reconciliation and I will love them from afar. " "There, I am a good Christian and I am marching to Zion, the beautiful city of God. " Hyppocrites and cowards are they. For it is easy to love from afar.

It is easy to love from afar. Any weakling and coward can love others from afar. But to love like Jesus requires us coming near to others and to love them despite their flaws, to love them despite their coldness, betrayals etc.. It is easy to love those who live outside your home than those living with you. It is easy to love those outside of your church than those you call brothers and sisters.  You know why ? Because there is no intimacy. Those who are closest to you are able to hurt you the most. The closer the intimacy, the more vulnerable you are and so many of us understanding that we are cowards, flee from such close fellowship using deceitful statements such as " loving from afar."

How do I know personally that God loves me ? I know Jesus loves me because no matter how sinful I am He still loves me. I know Jesus loves me because I have failed Him many times and yet He still reach out to me. I know Jesus loves me because He is always doing what is necessary to bring reconciliation between me and Him. I know Jesus loves me because He has not loved me from "afar" but has come very near to me and say " let us reason together," let us make peace with each other and let walk together. This is how I know Jesus loves me. The way He treats me when I am undeserving, unfaithful, and He remain faithful, loving. This is what it means to love like Jesus.
Love shines the brightest in difficult times. Love shines the brightest when we have disagreements and irreconcilable differences.  Love is revealed in the way we treat those we don't see eye to eye with. If my brother has something against me,  I reveal my love to him by going out of my way to reach out to him and make peace with him. If that doesn't work, I take someone else with me to speak with my brother to bring reconciliation.  If that doesn't I continue to pray for the Lord to help me and my brother do what is right. I keep praying for the Lord to give me the strength to love my brother like Jesus loves me and sacrificed His life for me.

Love is difficult, love is hard. Everyone want to be loved but only a few are willing to endure the dangerous and unpleasant path to show true love to others. To love others require Divine strength, it requires constant dependence upon the Lord Jesus. To love others require bravery, to draw near to others knowing that they may not respond to your love but still seeking whats good for them. The coward is fearful, lacks the courage to do endure dangerous or unpleasant things. The coward will never experience the joy of loving like Jesus does, for the end of the coward is the lake of fire πŸ”₯. God has not called us to be cowards, but to be brave soldiers .

The coward loves from a far, but let us ask God for the courage and strength to love from near, to love others despite their betrayals, persecution, toxicity, to love others despite their wrongs toward us. Let us ask God to help us to be loving and lovable Christian.  A Christian who so love others that he is willing to lay down his life for them. Let us God for the strength to love like He does, for only the strong can experience true love, while cowards hide and dream about love.  Let us go forward in the strength of the Lord and the power of His might and reveal God's persevering love to others .  Lord help me to love others from near like you do πŸ™πŸΎ

Toxic christianity: Protecting my mental health by staying away from others

 In Matthew 28, Jesus said " go and make disciples of all nations." Christianity is all about relationships, all about friendship, all about discipleship. Discipleship requires close intimacy. Look at Jesus and the disciples,  they went everywhere together, they ate together, attended feasts together, travel together. For 3 and half years they were his closest family on earth. Each disciple had their own personality, own aspirations, own motive for following Christ and yet He loved them all. Rivalries existed among the disciples and yet Jesus loved them all and kept them close to His heart. Why ? Because Jesus is love .


But we now have a christianity that is no longer following the Master's example, we now have a toxic christianity who's example is the selfish world out there. God called us to be the head, to be the one leading, but sadly most Christians are the "tail," following the world and its godless examples. Our society is experiencing a loneliness epidemic. Why ? Because of selfishness and pride. People care only about themselves and as a result they have no one around them. Mental health is now the popular thing and everyone is talking about mental health which is good, but as Christians we should take the good and reject the evil. 

And one of the evils I have been hearing concerning mental health is to "stay away from toxic people in order to protect your mental health." This in itself is a toxic and selfish statement. If i had heard this statement solely from wordly and godless people I would have less of a problem, but when I Christians repeating the same toxic statement,  it bothers me greatly. My first question is how do you know if you are not the one who is toxic ?  In proverbs 18:24 , the Bible says," a man that hath friends must shew himself friendly." A person who is not toxic has friends, close friends with different personalities.  

The Christian is in the world to be the salt of the world. The Christian is in the world to be the "head." To lead by example. And God has not called to hide like cowards behind "protecting my mental health, " excuses, but God has called us to be friendly, to go and make friends, intimate friends, disciples to bring into His kingdom. If Jesus was like us, Peter would be lost. For Peter betrayed him, by denying Him 3 times. We would "protect our mental health" from such a friend and stay away from him. But Christ restored him into His fellowship. We must follow the Master.

If you find yourself surrounded by toxic people everywhere you go, I will say maybe you are the one who is toxic. There is a quote that says, " like attract like." If all you are attracting are toxic personality, than look no further than the self as the real issue. Maybe others are the one staying away from you. If you find yourself unable to maintain close friendship with others, look into the mirror. If you find yourself moving from friends to friends because these friends are toxic, flawed, untrustworthy, then look into the mirror. Whatever you accuse others of doing, look first into the mirror because most likely you are projecting your own characteristics on others. But there is hope.


There is hope because Jesus came to die for toxic people and all of us are toxic. You don't believe you are toxic ? Then look at your relationship with God. Do you treat Him right ? Look at your past relationships. Are you ever at fault, or are the other people always at fault ? If God thought in the same selfish way as us, He would stay away from us to protect His mental health, but praise be to God,  He is not as toxic and selfish as us, so He is constantly reaching out to us, making us His friends. And God is calling us to do the same.

Jesus came to save us while we were still toxic and we are still toxic because we continue to do things the Lord hate. But the Lord is still working in us to transform us into His image . Let us be as tender and compassionate to others . Don't get me wrong now, I'm not saying we should foolishly get into relationships with everyone, we should use discernment and seek counsel from the Lord and others . But the key point is we must not be like the world and be selfish by hiding from others so we don't get hurt or disappointed. To love others is to risk getting hurt and yet to love others is to reveal Christ in the life .


Let us not be toxic like the world, but let us follow the Master. Let us reach out to others, even those we believe who are toxic. Let us pray for them, let us ask the Lord for the strength to love them like Christ has loved us. Let us seek to develop strong friendship with others and when they fail us, let us do all in our power to restore that individual. Hiding away from others to protect our " mental health " is nothing but selfishness hiding under a Christian garb, a cold heart hiding under falsehood.  Love suffer long. May the Lord help us fulfill our mission. Let us go and make disciples like He did, loving them despite their flaws, toxicity πŸ™πŸΎ.

Where selfishness goes to die

 Marriage is the place where selfishness goes die. There are two options in marriage. Either your selfishness will die or your marriage will πŸ€΅πŸΎπŸ’”πŸ‘°πŸ½. I read a sad story about Republican House representative Lauren Boebert divorcing from her husband of nearly two decades. "Boebert said there were "irreconcilable differences " in their relationship.  That statement right there," irreconcilable differences, " is code word for one of us is selfish or both of us are selfish and we are unable to die to our selfishness, so we will destroy the marriage instead so that the self can continue to live . After 20 years of marriage,  a divorce . Can you imagine the pain, the suffering? 


Marriage is where selfishness goes to die πŸ’€. Marriage was designed in such a way that selfishness can't survive in there. For marriage is all about two individuals, with different upbringings, different ideas, different way of seeing things coming together to function as ome unit. By definition marriage is hard work.  Amos 3:3 says "can two walk together,except they ne agreed ?" Marriage is a walking together in life and it becomes impossible for two people walk together when they don't understand each other. For how can we be agreed if we don't understand each other ? This is the definition of "irreconcilable differences," we just can't agree, so we can no longer walk together . 

The failure of marriage doesn't begin during the marriage but way before. The failure of marriage begin with our attitude before we get married. What do you think marriage is πŸ€”? Do you think marriage is something that is designed to make you happy ? Do you think marriage is about solving your problem of loneliness? Do you think marriage is what will bring meaning to your life ? Do you think marriage is about having someone else whose life solely revolves around you and your wishes ? Do you think marriage is about having someone who when you say jump, "will say how hi ?" If these are your attitude towards marriage then your marriage will sooner or later collapse. 


Many of us get our image of marriage from Disney movies πŸ“Ί. The princess finally find her soul mate who's job is to love her and her job is to look cute. But marriage in the real world is far different. No such thing as a soulmate.  Marriage is hard work. It doesn't matter who you marry, it will require hard work and constant communication to maintain your marriage.  You can even marry your kindergarten sweetheart, unless you are dedicated to sacrificing self daily and to seek to understand the other person, to seek to seek their perspective and hopefully they are doing the same, your marriage will be miserable in the least and divorce will sooner or later be the result .

This is why we are not supposed to choose just anyone to become our spouse. We want to make sure the Lord is choosing for us. We want to make sure it is someone who fears God, responsible, respectful, someone you can talk to. He may look handsome, she may look good but in marriage, looks soon disappear as you are left dealing with the character of the person and the challenges that come in cleaving two separate people as one. Friends, marriage is hard work and marriage sacrificial.  Marriage is about seeking to understand the person and looking for how you can make your spouse's life better and hopefully they are doing the same. Marriage is about supporting each other to become better.

Marriage is about having self control . Treating your spouse nice when you want to get angry. Taking out the trash when you just want to chill, cooking for your husband when you are tired. Listening to one another when you don't want to, letting the other win when you think you were right. Marriage is all about sacrifice.  The love you see on TV comes as a result of continous sacrifices.  The moment you say in your marriage I am just going to do me, I  am just going to focus on me is the moment your marriage start dissolving.  If you are looking to be happy, marriage is not for you 😱. But if you are looking to learn to love someone else, to die to selfishness then marriage is for you. 

And last of all marriage is about developing the image of  Christ in us. What image is that ? Love and sacrifice.  If you are looking for someone to marry,  stay away from those promoting self love, those saying "my needs come first," those who are looking for someone to love them, you will suffer greatly in marriage with such type. Also make sure you are not one. But if you are looking for marriage, ask the Lord to give you someone you will love, you will sacrifice for, you will die to self for . And most of all if you are already married, ask God daily for the strength to love your spouse no matter what. For wisdom on how to deal with them and to help each other reach heaven πŸ™πŸΎ

Character is revealed in time of crises

 Many people claim to be whatever they want to be, but in time of crises our true natures are revealed. Crises and trial are God's tool of fashioning and revealing character, of making manifest the hidden things of the heart ❤

Many people claim to be Christians, claim to love God until a serious crises hit them. Then their true natures are revealed. In moment of crises many abandoned the faith. The Covid pendemic proved such. Before covid maby churches used to be packed.  But the pendemic has revealed many to have been false Christians, they fell away from tje assembly of the brethren and back into the darkness of the world. Many claim to love God, but when a sickness hit them, financial failures, the loss of loved ones, then we truly see whether they were true Christians or not. Adversities have a way of separating the real from the fraudsters 


Many claim to be a Christians, claim to be loving, but the moment we encounter someone who is difficult we reveal our true unloving nature, we reveal that we are not like Christ.  Because the moment we meet someone who is not like us, who is difficult we want to separate ourselves from that person. We claim the same excuse the world use, we claim we need to protect our mental health, we need to preserve our peace. I call this phenomenon good time Christians only. The Bible said while we were yet sinners Christ died for us. Love is revealed in its greatest glory when we meet those who are unlovable. 

Character is revealed in times of crises. Good times make it difficult to judge someone's character, it is during bad times you get to know what people are truly made of. You know who your friends truly are when bad times hit the relationships. You know who your friend truly is when you have disagreements, when you don't see things eye to eye . How do they react? Do they forsake the friendship at the first sign of difficulty or do they do all they can to bring about reconciliation? Character is revealed in time of crises .

Many will claim to love you in life, when times are good, when you are popular, wheb you are able to help them etc..But as soon as you make a mistake, you fall from grace, you are no longer able to help them, then it will be revealed who are your true friends and who were only parasites. And friends we too have to check ourselves to see if we are true to those who are in our lives. How do we react when we encounter difficulties with those we work with ? With our friends ? With our church family ? With our neighbors? With those in our homes ? Do we run away the moment we encounter any difficulties or do we allow true love to shine through during moments of crises ? 

It was on the cross that the universe really saw the love of God.  As Christ was hanging on the cross in agony, blood flowing down His body, the universe saw the character of God revealed. Christ said " Father forgive them for they know not what they do. " What love ! What beauty ! Christ didn't run away from the difficult task of rebuilding His relationship with the human race, but "He endured the cross, despising the shame." The cross revealed who God truly is, a God of love . The difficult moment of life reveal who me and you truly are. They reveal whether we are true to what we profess or frauds. Life has a way of bringing out the hidden things of the heart. 

I read a quote that said" the ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in times of comfort and convenience but where he stands at times of challenges and controversy. " In times of comfort and convenience every is nice, but in times of difficulty character is revealed.  If you really want to know who you are, watch how you react during times of difficulty. Do you put your trust in the Lord or do you forsake Him ? Do you love or do you hate ? Do you reach out to those who hurt you or do you run away so your little heart 😒❤ doesn't get hurt ? The ultimate measure of a persom is where he/she stands in time of adversity. On the cross we saw that God is truly a loving God.  May the Lord help us to reveal His character in the good and bad times. May Christ be in us, the hope of glory .

Faithful and true

 How many of us can claim to be faithful and true ? How many of us can claim to know someone who is faithful and true ? Someone you can bet your life on ?  Its difficult, I know. We are living in a time when its hard to trust anyone, a time during which you cannot trust the word of most people. People will tell you one thing and do something completely different.  


Around us all we find are unfaithfulness and falsehoods. Marriage is a perfect example πŸ€΅πŸΎπŸ‘°πŸ½. People come together on the altar before the Lord and witnesses, claiming to love each other until death do us apart and within 7 years of marriage about 50 percent get a divorce πŸ’”, breaking their vows and proved to be unfaithful.

Politicians are unfaithful and false. They promise one thing and when they get into power do something completely different. Our friends, loved ones make promises to us and at the time of need, time of testing many a times proved unfaithful and false. We ourselves have been unfaithful and false to others .

With so much unfaithfulness and falsehoods around us we have learned to trust in nothing and in no one and as a result we struggle to find peace, love and balance in life. As a result we retreat to ourselves because we feel like self is the only thing we can trust and the saddest thing is even self fail us and proved unfaithful and so our anxieties increase. 

In such a world of unfaithfulness is there anyone who we can trust, in whom we can put all our hopes πŸ€”? Yes, I have found one, I am here to tell you there's is one, the Faithful and True Witness, even Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.  Jesus is faithful and true, His promises are sure, you can bet your life on them.

When Jesus said "He will never leave you nor forsake you," He meant it. We can forsake Him but if we abide in Him, He will always remain by our side. Whe He said He will forgive us of all our sins if we confess them, He meant it. When He said He will keep us from fallen into sin, He meant it . And when He said He will come back the second time you better believe it. 

Jesus is the Faithful and true witness, put your trust in Him and you will never be moved. Put your trust in Him and His love will flow through you. Put your trust in Him and you will get the strength to face any and every obstacle in life. Jesus is the faithful and true witness, put your trust wholly in Him πŸ™πŸΎ.

We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all. Isaiah 53:6
