YOU ARE NOT ALONE! Bible Text: Hebrews 13:5, PSALM 118: INTRODUCTION There many times in life when men feel they are alone because all things seem to work against them. But God’s word says in Hebrews 13:5b “for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.” NAOMI Naomi was in that situation. She lost her husband in Moab, as if that was not enough; she lost her two Sons - Mahlon and Chilion: “And Naomi said unto her two daughters in law, Go, return each to her mother’s house: the LORD deal kindly with you, as ye have dealt with the dead, and with me. The LORD grant you that ye may find rest, each [of you] in the house of her husband. Then she kissed them; and they lifted up their voice, and wept (Ruth 1:8-9)”. Naomi and her daughters in law wept bitterly, weight of the tragedies that befell Naomi was heavy and must have felt she was alone as said in Ruth 1:20-22: “ And she said unto them, Call me not Naomi, call me Mara: for the Almighty hath dealt very bitte

THE OIL OF GLADNESS TEXT: Psalm 45:6-8 INTRODUCTION If you derive your joy and happiness from earthly things, then you will forever be miserable. If Job relied on earthly things as his source of Joy, he would have committed suicide when his own wife told him –Job 2:9 – “Then said his wife unto him, Dost thou still retain thine integrity? curse God, and die. Job 2:10- But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin with his lips.” OUTLINE 1: STOP MURMURING Show me those who murmur and I will show you those who displease God. Murmuring does not help but kills you. Exodus 12:1-12. In 1 Samuel 30:1-9, David and his soldiers returned to their home at Ziglag and found out that the Amalikates had invaded their homes and taken their wives and children captive, David did not seat down to say God why me, what have I done to deserve this, the bi

Source of Help Psalms 121:2 My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth. There is help that leads to more problems but there is another help that is above all helps. This latter help leads to total victory and happiness. Where do you seek help from - Human or God? God should be the source of everyone's help because He knows all things and He never sleep nor slumber. Because He is our keeper and He is the good Shepard. Beloved, stop sourcing help from fellow humans. Yes, God uses human to help human but not when we primarily seek help from human. In seeking for help, put God first, Proverbs 3:5-7. You see, in all out ways even in seeking help, we should never forget to put God first. Beloved, you will never be disappointed when you seek for help from God and equally when you continually wait on Him. Shalom!

Free Conscience? Acts  24:16 And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void of offence toward God, and toward men. How is your conscience? Is it void of offence towards God and human? How do you run this Heavenly race? Are you running disregarding your neighbours, stepping on them too? We must run like Apostle Paul, avoiding to offend God and humans. That's why he said in Romans  14:15 that "But if thy brother be grieved with thy meat, now walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died." Beloved, your conscience should be free from offending God and also free from offending human. Yes! Humans are difficult but strife to place God and try to please human but not to you disobeying God. Shalom!
