If we have trusted in God and fully believe we are His children, if we are convinced that He is our God and knows us as well as Psalm 139:1-18 stipulates, then let us approach His throne with confidence and worship Him. It doesn’t matter what we are going through. Worship Him.

Place your trust in God at all times. Long to dwell in His presence. Believe in His love and mercy and His plan for you. Psalm 61:1-8.

I never tire reading the account of Job. He was so sure of his relationship with God that he spoke the words in Job 13:13-19. He was so confident that he was willing to put his life on the line. But he still acknowledged God and praised Him despite the pain and suffering he endured.

We need to stop feeling distant from God. He is our Father, the Creator. On the other hand, we must endeavour to worship Him with sincere hearts. May we avoid empty rituals that do not glorify Him. Religion and routine can easily displace a genuine relationship with God. He desires our love and devotion, honour, sincerity, obedience and respect. May He always feel welcome in our midst. Isaiah 29:13-16.

Even when we are unhappy with ourselves we should know that God’s love towards us still exists. Nothing can extinguish His love for us. Romans 8:35-39.

I hope Psalm 139:13-16 can encourage us to trust the Lord more. He knows us better than we know ourselves, so let us trust Him more. We ought to accept our place in Him, our appearance, everything about us. We also need to trust that He knows what is best for us. There is what we desire and what He wants for us. Sometimes the two are not the same.

Even as we continue rejoicing in God’s goodness and mercy, I pray that we can give Him room to work in our lives. There is a peace that comes with yielding to Him and allowing Him to have His way. May this be our disposition. Psalm 139:1-12

Just woke up thanking God for His mercy and grace towards me and my family on the 24th anniversary of our marriage. On Dec 6th 1997 Camilla and I trusted God and we committed to love Him and love one another. He has been wonderful to us and we thank Him. Thank you too for standing with us. May this same God surround you with His presence always. And may we all yield to Him more and more. Our prayer as a couple going forward is Psalm 140:23-24.

When someone invites us to their function, there are certain things expected of us. It may be dress code, a gift, some rituals, we may be expected to eat or not to eat, etc. If we honour the host, we will comply. The King of Kings is inviting us to His banquet. Will we comply? He is a gracious host. Matthew 11:27-28.

May we not be among those who refuse God’s invitation. In Isaiah 32:4-8, there is reference to a scoundrel or fool. May that not be our portion. May we be the one referred to as noble.
