A whole new meaning

Psalm 100 has a new meaning to me. I just texted one of the zone f guys and his family is struggling. It is in a mess. He is young, He has a life ahead of him. He is too exposed to all these complications. He just listens, he doesn't know what to do. He continues to serve God and put a smile on his face. A little bit of that joy has sifted away. But I pray that it will not affect him but that it will make him strong; that he will be renewed in strength and joy as he emerge the trial.
I thank God as Good Friday and Easter approaches. I thank God because He died for us on the Cross and He removed all these complications, pressure and stress. I thank God that He died for the young people in zone f and He died for me. This Easter is going to be amazing. It will be special.
Once upon a time, my family was just like this young lad. He is the middle of the rough terrain and the complications. But God has redeemed my family out of bondage, out of sin and into His promise. This Good Friday, Mum is getting baptised, Elgin and Brenda too.
Psalm 100 is a Psalm of praise for God's faithfulness to His people. If God can move in my life, God can move in that young lad's life.
1 Make a joyful shout to the LORD, all you lands! 2 Serve the LORD with gladness; Come before His presence with singing. 3 Know that the LORD, He is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. 4 Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, And into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name. 5 For the LORD is good; His mercy is everlasting, And His truth endures to all generations.
Psalm 100 has a new meaning. It says that "His truth endures to all generations."
Pontius Pilate asked what truth is... Many people ask what truth is... I ask what truth is...
God's truth is prosperity. God's truth is faithfulness. God's truth is shelter. God's truth is blessing. God's truth is purpose & destiny. God's truth is to raise us up. God's truth is to redeem our families.
This is the truth that endures all generations. Families will be redeemed in Jesus' name. The young lad's family will be redeem.
This is God's truth. It has become my truth. It is my truth. It will become the young lad's truth. It will become your truth.
As my family gets baptized tomorrow, this truth will become their truth.
The Lord is good. His mercy endures forever. He is the Lord God. He made us and not ourselves.
Discover the truth in your lives.
