Messiah is the King of kings, Messiah is the Lord of lords. 2x Allelu-elu-ia, Allelu-elu-ia, Allelu-elu-ia 2x. Blessed be Thy Name of the Lord, He is worthy to be praise and adore. Lord we lift our holy hands in one accord, singing blessed be Thy Name, blessed be Thy Name, blessed be Thy Name of the Lord.

Heavenly Father, we come rejoicing in before You. Thank You Most Gracious God, for without You we are nothing, aside You we can do nothing. Faithful are You Lord, the Ancient of Days, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, Faithful are You, Lord.

Eternal Rock of Ages, who is like unto Thee? Thank You for the gift of another week, the last lap of this month. Father, we are grateful for bringing us thus far. We are also trusting You to see the end in Jesus Name. Glorious God, we thank You for ever and ever and ever.

Beloveth, beautiful Monday morning I must say and I believe you are saying so as well. By the grace of God we are in the final lap of month of July and God has been faithful to you and I.  Personal, I will be in thankful mood for the remaining days of this month, the reason you soon find out as well before the end of the month.

Kindness is a virtue that we see not only in God but also in life our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. For every miracles and healings done in the bible had it foundations on the compassion rooted in the life of Jesus. Little wonder while is expected of us also to follow same through the help of the Holy Spirit. (Matt 8:2-3; 5-7,13; 14-17 Matt 9:1-6;Lk 7:12-15; Lk 8:50-54)

As we are gradually seeing the end of this month, beloveth, let us make it a necessity to show kindness to someone in obedience to theme of this month and we will see that act of kindness opening doors unto us.

Are you ready to work as Jesus did and He is still doing? The teaching of today will be a great help to you. We are to work while we are here and our Father in heaven will reward us handsomely as we do in Jesus Name.

Come on as we discover more from what the Spirit of God is bring our way today:

“Thy shoes shall be iron and brass; and as thy days, so shall thy strength be.” Deut. 33:25

Here are two things provided for the pilgrim: shoes and strength.

As for the shoes: they are very needful for traveling along rough ways, and for trampling upon deadly foes. We shall not go barefoot — this would not be suitable for princes of the blood royal. Our shoes shall not be at all of the common sort, for they shall have soles of durable metal, which will not wear out even if the journey be long and difficult.

We shall have protection proportionate to the necessities of the road and the battle. Wherefore let us march boldly on, fearing no harm even though we tread on serpents, or set our foot upon the dragon himself.

As for the strength: it shall be continued as long as our days shall continue, and it shall be proportioned to the stress and burden of those days. The words are few, “as thy days thy strength,” but the meaning is full. This day we may look for trial, and for work which will require energy, but we may just as confidently look for equal strength.

This word given to Asher is given to us also who have faith wherewith to appropriate it. Let us rise to the holy boldness which it is calculated to create within the believing heart.

Yes dear beloved, this promise is also meant for you, if you are ready to work for the Lord. I have been privilege to see many old soldiers of the cross especially in my local church and some I have been opportune to meet outside also, I delightful to say to you that their strength has not abated one bit. They are strong, full of compassion and wisdom of God. They are kind in nature and standing for truth always.

So I covert this saying of our text today, that my strength will not abate till the end of my journey here on earth, beloved are saying same with me? The Lord will help us and bring to pass this promise of His to us to past in Jesus Name. Remember Moses eyes were not dim even at his old age. Father Abraham was still strong even at His old age as he fought and rescue his nephew Lot. All of this happened because God was with them conferring His Word in their life.

Ours will not be different if only you believe, we work here and we will also be enlisted as we go yonder. Come let keep going:

“His heavenly kingdom.” 2Timothy 4:18

Yonder city of the great King is a place of active service. Ransomed spirits serve Him day and night in His temple. They never cease to fulfil the good pleasure of their King. They always “rest,” so far as ease and freedom from care is concerned; and never “rest,” in the sense of indolence or inactivity.

Jerusalem the golden is the place of communion with all the people of God. We shall sit with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, in eternal fellowship. We shall hold high converse with the noble host of the elect, all reigning with Him who by His love and His potent arm has brought them safely home. We shall not sing solos, but in chorus shall we praise our King.

Heaven is a place of victory realized. Whenever, Christian, thou hast achieved a victory over thy lusts—whenever after hard struggling, thou hast laid a temptation dead at thy feet—thou hast in that hour a foretaste of the joy that awaits thee when the Lord shall shortly tread Satan under thy feet, and thou shalt find thyself more than conqueror through Him who hath loved thee. Paradise is a place of security.

When you enjoy the full assurance of faith, you have the pledge of that glorious security which shall be yours when you are a perfect citizen of the heavenly Jerusalem. O my sweet home, Jerusalem, thou happy harbour of my soul! Thanks, even now, to Him whose love hath taught me to long for Thee; but louder thanks in eternity, when I shall possess thee.

“My soul has tasted of the grapes,

And now it longs to go

Where my dear Lord His vineyard keeps

And all the clusters grow.

“Upon the true and living vine,

My famish’d soul would feast,

And banquet on the fruit divine,

An everlasting guest.”

Beloveth, home sweet home, heavenly Jerusalem, my home. That will be when we cross over dear beloved but we must work now so as to be part of it. Lord make it true and true in our lives, to be part of heavenly kingdom.

Beloveth, everything will pass away, fame, power, beauty, wealth, possession, we must therefore go for which have eternal values. When everything comes to an end, only one thing will continue to be that is the “Kingdom of God,” dare you be part of it?  Then set your affection on things above where moth will never be (Col 3:2).

Let us not be like the people of Noah, who were busy taking wife, celebrating child births, acquiring more businesses and suddenly destruction came and destroy all. I believe so many labourers would have worked with Noah but none believed in his vision. They laboured for money and reaped vanity. Beloved be wise and go beyond what to nourishes your flesh, seek also to keep your Spirit for eternity. Enlist in the Lord’s armies and keep your rank, He will surely reward you if you don’t give up.

Talking about Noah, though the Lord gave testimony about him, the ark was built for about hundred years. I see in Noah a man of great courage and faith, like Mary, he believed that what God said will come to past. This man of God must have had several encounters enough to discourage him while building the ark. He will have suffered many persecution both from the authority, government and fellow citizen but he kept faith to what God said.

I also sees in Noah a man with great integrity as he was able to convince his wife, sons and daughters-in-law to follow His calling and vision. Beloved you can agree with me that so many ills are found today even in the homes of our dear ministers of the gospel. What went wrong? What is devil doing in homes of children of God? Let’s watch it and pray to God to help us to raise godly children that will help establish the kingdom of God here on earth and also be part of it in the heavenly. Glory be to God.

Beloved, this week is declared blessed in the Name of the God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Remain blessed in the Lord
