PSALM 23



By Teboho Masakala

“The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want; surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil (Psalm 23)”

How often we find ourselves facing death in the eye? So many times the enemy comes and tries to drive us out from God’s presence, our enemies trying to pull us down and hurt us. But the Lord is our Shepherd, protecting us, watching us and he is our shepherd through all trials and temptations.

When you walk through difficulties and storms in life, when you have no hope, do not despair because surely goodness and mercy shall follow you, don’t be scared of your enemies, don’t be scared of the traps your enemies are setting for you day and night.

 The evil plans your enemies’ sets you day and night shall not prosper because even though you walk through the value of shadow of death, fear no evil because God is your Shepherd and fear no evil because surely goodness and mercy shall cover you all the days of your life.

 


Your enemies may plan wicked traps to snare you, the devil wants your soul and uses his evil ways to bring you down, do not fear because God shall prepare a table in the presence of your enemies, they will live to see your success, they will live to see God exalting you higher and higher because God anoints your head with oil, your cup runneth over.

So many times the enemy has came trying to chase you out of God’s presence, to make you scared and make you far away from God, do not fear the devil but tell him that “the Lord is my Shepherd and I shall fear no evil, he restores my soul, he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name sakes”

All the days of your life, God’s goodness and mercy shall follow you over the days of your life, you shall find favour in the Lord because he has anointed your head with oil and he is your shepherd and when you have him, you shall fear no evil, even death has no power over your life, even if you face it face-to-face, do not fear because even if you walk in the valley of shadow of death you shall fear no evil, God’s rod and  staff shall comforts you.

God will lead you in the path of righteousness; he shall prepare a table in the presence of all your enemies. All the days of your life surely goodness and mercy shall follow you, everything you do shall be blessed as the mercy of God shall follow you.

Fear has no place in your life because the Lord is your shepherd and is with you. You shall dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of your life; God’s presence shall never leave you.

To God be the Glory.

AMEN (God Let Your Will be done)

By Teboho Masakala

“I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared to the Glory that will be revealed in us” (Romans Chapter 8: 18)

I ask myself how did Jesus do it, makes such a sacrifice, the ones that he loved, wanted him crucified, he knew that his friends will betray him, he knew that his blood will be shed, but still he said Amen. Lord I surrender my will and not yours.

We face painful life situations, trials and challenges that seem so difficult and no way going out of them, but you should not despair and keep on saying AMEN. You must surrender your will to God and say Amen.
 The ones that we love sometimes cause us great pain, the pain that pierces our hearts so deep, but we must keep on saying Amen to God and give him the Glory.

In our persuasion of happiness, we find ourselves even falling into traps, lots of them as we trying to free and fill the happiness void in our life. Keep on saying Amen because God knows what you going through.
Your child doesn't
 respect you, you have just lost your Job, friends and a loved one, don’t stop saying Amen to God. Keep on saying Amen to God; let your will be done.

You are poor and don’t have food to eat and don’t even have clothes to wear and don’t know where your next meal will come from, keep on saying Amen God let your will be done. Your wife, child, husband or family member has been hospitalized and it seems no solutions coming your way, keep on saying Amen God let your will be done.

When trouble come say Amen and when trouble goes keep on saying Amen, God I trust you, with all of my heart I say Amen. When your friends who you trusted betray you and let you down keep on saying Amen God let your will be done.

Look at your tests and troubles, they can’t compare to the pain that Jesus went through and if he can go through it, surely you can do the same. The place and situation you are in, Jesus has already stood on so keep on saying Amen God let your Will be done.

Have patience, God is with you in your situation and will not let your troubles overcome you or let anything bad happen to you. Keep on saying Amen God let your Will be done.
If you don’t understand why you are in the pain or trials you are in keep on saying Amen God let your will be done.

The sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared to the Glory that will be revealed in us” (Romans Chapter 8: 18).

To God Be The Glory
