NO SAFE PLACE!!



NO SAFE PLACE!
I have come to the conclusion that there is no safe place on earth. We see nations rising against nations; we see one race rising against another race. We hear unpleasant news daily from the media and internet. The world now is corrupt and filled with violence. Men’s heart is full of evil and desperate; who can know it. A man’s household turns out to be his enemies; a man’s friend turns out to be his foes. Many trust in their arm of flesh for safety, but the arm of flesh fails. Many trust in horses and chariots, but horses and chariots fails. Many trust in technology, but technology fails. When you look around the world today, you will also observe no place is safe. Even palaces and earthly kingdoms with guards and reinforcements, that still doesn’t guarantee safety. Even if a man secures his house with the most expensive security gadgets and measures, that still doesn’t guarantee his safety. Navigation on the sea with the largest vessel doesn’t guarantee safety. Boarding the largest aircraft, doesn’t guarantee safety. Travelling out of your country doesn’t guarantee safety. Travelling out of your continent to another continent, doesn’t guarantee safety. The Psalmist says in Psalm 127 vs. 1: Except the LORD build the house, they labor in vain that build it; except the LORD keep the city, the watchman wakes but in vain. Proverbs 21 vs. 31: The horse is prepared against the day of battle; but safety is of the LORD. Only in GOD can safety be found. Only in GOD can safety be guaranteed. Only in His name can men be saved. The only safest place is the NAME OF THE LORD. Proverbs 18 vs. 10: The name of the LORD is a strong tower, the righteous runs into it and is safe.

             However, only the righteous can run into the NAME OF THE LORD. Only the righteous can the name work for. No wonder the Psalmist wrote in Psalm 121 vs. 7-8: The LORD shall preserve you from all evil, He shall preserve your soul. The LORD shall preserve your going out and your coming in, from this time fort and even for evermore. Also, Psalm 34 vs. 17-20: The righteous cry and the LORD hears and delivers them out of all their troubles. The LORD is near to them that are of a broken heart; and saves such as be of a contrite Spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous; but the LORD delivers him out of them all. He keeps all his bones, not one of them is broken. Noah was a pleasure to the LORD during his time. The bible records he was the only truly righteous man living on the earth at that time. He tried always to conduct his affairs according to GOD’s will. GOD promised to keep him safe in the ark, he was asked to build with his wife, sons and their wives and pair of each kind of bird and animals. This shows only the righteous are safe in this fearful world. There is no place, be it on the sea; underneath the sea, on the land, underneath the land, in the air a righteous man cannot live. For GOD will never for once leave nor forsake him and will always show HIMSELF strong on his behalf. 2 Chronicles 16 vs. 9a : For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth to show Himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect towards HIM. Anywhere you find yourself, you are safe when your heart is perfect towards GOD. It is well with us….....

OUR DAYS.

OUR DAYS Greetings to all reading on this platform worldwide. I write on this topic OUR DAYS even as   my twin sister and I are a year older today. Glory be to GOD for a new year and a new day. A song says great is thy faithfulness, Oh LORD my father, morning by morning new mercies we see, all we have needed his hands have provided, Great is thy faithfulness. Truly great is his faithfulness toward all men. Many are not convinced of these, many don’t see something special in GOD’s faithfulness towards them. David said “Then I lay down and slept in peace and woke up safely, for the LORD was watching over me. He GOD never sleeps nor slumber over us, we just find out we sleep and before you know it, you open your eye to a new day. This is the LORD’s doing and it should be marvelous in our sights. We are to see reasons to always appreciate and thank GOD for his goodness, mercies and faithfulness. That you are alive shows He is faithful. The gift of life which is the greatest of...

FREEDOM FREEDOM FREEDOM

FREEDOM FREEDOM FREEDOM Freedom is a state of being able to do what you want without anything stopping you. Galatians 5 vs 1 says: so Christ has made us free, now make sure that you stay free, and don’t get all tied up again in the chains of slavery to jewish laws and ceremonies. Christ’s death on the cross made us free, we are in bondage before, but Christ made us free. We are tied up in chains slavery to sins, but his death made us free. The bible said whosoever the son sets free, is free indeed. We have been set free, and we are free. Many misuse this freedom, many use this freedom to do the wrong things. Many still dwell in sins despite, this freedom. This freedom brings grace, love, purity and faithfulness. The bible said we can’t continue in sins and say grace to abound, GOD forbid. When you are in sin, your freedom becomes captivity again. That is why, you must flee from all appearances of sins. Paul said in Galatians 5 vs 13: For dear brothers, you ...

THE DUTY OF MAN

THE DUTY OF MAN Duty is that which one is morally obligated to do. A husband in a house is responsible for meeting his family’s needs. That is the duty of a husband. A wife is responsible for taking care of the children and also house chores. That is the duty of a wife. A school teacher’s responsibility is to teach the students. That is the teacher’s duty. A student’s responsibility is to go to school, listen to what the teacher teaches and study them. That is the student’s responsibility. Our Creator GOD created everything for a purpose. Every creation has a duty to carry out. Unfortunately, many creations have failed in their duty. When a man doesn’t carry out his duty he is termed a failure. It causes the Creator GOD nothing to replace men with stones when they fail him. I pray may you not fail GOD!                However, there is time for everything. Don’t get excited and get carried away in this world. D...
