THE ARM OF FLESH SHALL FAIL YOU

It is very clear to the world now that no human intervention will be efficient enough in stopping this epidemic. All our health workers has surrendered the outcomes of all their medical experiments to the will of the almighty God. No wonder the bible says in, 2 Chronicles 32:8   "With him is only the arm of flesh, but with us is the Lord our God to help us and to fight our battles.” And the people gained confidence from what Hezekiah the king of Judah said. And you yourself will relinquish the inheritance that I gave you. I will enslave you to your enemies in a land that you do not know, for you have kindled My anger; it will burn forever.” This is what the LORD says: “Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind, who makes the flesh his strength and turns his heart from the LORD. He will be like a shrub in the desert; he will not see when prosperity comes. He will dwell in the parched places of the desert, in a salt land where no one lives. WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS ABOUT TRUSTI

HUNGER FOR THE WORD MAKES EVERYTHING GOOD

Image
  As a deer pants for flowing streams, so pants my soul for you, O God. Psalm 42:1 You can not experience the fullness of Gods presence without a longing and a thirst. Jesus taught many deep mysteries of God's word through the use of parables because, there must be a hunger to understand the truth behind Gods word before anyone can receive the revelation. Matthew 5:6 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied. Obedience to Gods word brings blessing in all ramifications. Jesus made this known to us in the beatitudes, (His sermon on the mount) You really are in need of Gods blessings? Develop a hunger and thirst for the God who gives the blessings. And the psalmist said, Psalm 37:4-5 Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will act. No one loves the father without delighting in his ways and his words. Most of the prayers that are not answered may not be
