LORD, thou art exalted, most High. And thy name is worthy of praise. Let thy joy abound. And let the lifting up of your name be exceedingly great. By thy hand we have hope. In thy great mercies and lovingkindness we flourish. Continue to walk with us and teach us in thy infinite wisdom, and lead us to the gates of righteousness, in Jesus name. To thy name be praised, now, and forevermore. Amen.

My beloved, we are approaching a critical time in our journey with our LORD and Saviour Jesus Christ. Our faith will be tested. I pray for God’s strength, the Father of Jesus Christ, that he will restore us with his word, that we shall be reminded of the glorious things of our God, in whom we have a blessed hope. I pray that God will cover you with his blood, from the crown of your head to the sole of your feet, that he will give you a fresh anointing to withstand the violence that shall come against you. Be steadfast in the LORD. Remember the LORD our God, who have chosen us out of this world, to give us a better hope, a glorious hope in Christ Jesus. And let us love one another as we walk in the wisdom of God. For it is written: If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that gives to all men liberally, and upbraid not; and it shall be given him ( James 1:5). So let us not behave as though wisdom is not important. But instead, let us also seek understanding, that we may live. I am your brother: I am Israel, a son of God, in whom I am enriched with wonderful things. And you also dwell not in vain, but in the glory of God, whom you seek day and night, knowing fully well that he is our Rock, our fountain of youth, our source of living water who sustains us day and night. The LORD is good to us. Who can deny his good pleasures? By his hand we have seen mercy. And his grace is bountiful before us. But let us not grieve the heart of our God, thinking that grace is a license to sin. For it is written: For the wisdom of the LORD is great, and he is mighty in power, and behold all things: And his eyes are upon them that fear him, and he knows every work of man. He has commanded no man to do wickedly, neither has he given any man license to sin(Ecclesiasticus 15:18 – 20)

Let us then walk in the light of the LORD, knowing fully well that darkness comprehend it not. Beloved, be strong in Christ. But even in weakness our God is ready to save us. Let us give thanks and praise to our God, in whom we hope. Amen. Let us enrich the hope of Zion; for we are the light of the world. And let us bring  pleasure to our God, who is ready to receive it. To his name be praised and eternal glory. Amen.

Blessed be God the Father, and our LORD Jesus Christ, in whom we have eternal salvation. May God be with you always. May he hear your cries, and not tarry, but come quickly unto thee. Amen.
