*_The Unchanging God: Our Source of Security and Joy_*


Life is a fleeting vapor, and people will change. In our journey through this world, we will encounter joys and sorrows, victories and disappointments, and relationships that might leave us hurt and broken. However, amidst the uncertainties and changes of life, we can find our refuge and strength in the unchanging nature of our God.


Our God remains constant throughout the ages. *He is the same yesterday, today, and forever* (Hebrews 13:8). In a world that is ever-changing, *His faithfulness and steadfast love endure forever* (Psalm 136:1). *The Lord is our rock, our fortress, and our deliverer, and in Him, we find our security and stability* (Psalm 18:2).


When life's trials and challenges come, we can trust in the unchanging character of God. *He is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble* (Psalm 46:1). In times of distress, *we can turn to Him and find comfort in His arms* (Isaiah 66:13).


Moreover, the Lord is the source of our joy. *In His presence, there is fullness of joy* (Psalm 16:11). *When everything around us seems to be uncertain, we can draw near to Him and experience the peace that surpasses all understanding* (Philippians 4:7).


Though life's circumstances may shift, we can anchor our hope in the Lord. The apostle Paul reminds us in Romans 8:38-39 that *nothing can separate us from the love of God, not even the trials and tribulations we face in this world.* We can trust that His plans for us are good, for *He works all things together for the good of those who love Him* (Romans 8:28).


So, as we journey through this fleeting life, let us remember to fix our eyes on the unchanging God who remains steadfast in His love and faithfulness. In Him, we find our security and joy that transcends the shifting sands of life.


May we seek His guidance, lean on His promises, and find comfort in His presence. Let us trust in the unchanging God who holds our future in His hands and find rest in the knowledge that He is always with us, guiding and comforting us every step of the way.

  I Will Build My Church – Matthew 16:13-19   We are living at a very crucial time when it appears the devil has taken over the stage. All over the world, news of crises and criminal activities pervade the whole atmosphere. For those who have the spiritual insight and understanding of time, the whole arsenal of the devil is directed at the church moreso, when the coming of the Lord is nearer than before. Nevertheless, the plan and purpose of God cannot but come to pass. The Lord’s words cannot go out without being fulfilled that “…I will build my Church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it”. Amen.   The church, that is, the Body of Christ, does not belong to anybody hence; Jesus said “…I will build my church…” No man or woman who has by His grace become, a building block and precious stone in the Body of Christ, can lay claim to the church. We have become a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people, that we should show...
