Encouragement

1Sa m 30:6 “And David was greatly distressed; for the people spake of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters: but David encouraged himself in the LORD his God.” In seasons of great distress and despondency, we are to learn the Davidic art of encouraging ourselves in the Lord by persevering prayer, the quiet meditation of the word and the patient waiting and submission to His holy will .

Christian demeanour and decorum

1Pet 3: 2” While they behold your chaste conversation
coupled with fear. 3Whose adorning let it not be that outward
adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting
on of apparel; 4But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in
that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet
spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price
Don’t forget to doll this morning when you leave the house with the spiritual cosmetics of meekness, temperance , joy , longsuffering and remember the deodorant of attractive compassion and godliness .

Biblical Theism

Isa 44:8 “Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared it ? ye are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no God; I know not any”
Does God believe in atheism or polytheism ?isaiah gave us the unequivocal answer . Triune monotheis m is the only correct conception of God today vis a vis the prevalent concepts of theism including pantheism of our age.

The art and science of dying well

1Cor 15;57 “O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is

thy victory? 56The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin

is the law. 57But thanks be to God, which giveth us the

victory through our Lord Jesus Christ”. The art and  science of dying well lies in the profound serenity that comes from knowing the Resurrected Victor over death.  Death cannot defeat nor vanquish that which cannot die .
