THE FACT THAT GOD OUR PROTECTOR.
Whoever goes to the Lord for safety, whoever remains under the protection of the Almighty, can say to him, "You are my defender and protector. You are my God, in you I trust".
He will keep you safe from all hidden dangers and from all deadly diseases.
He will cover you with his wings, you will be safe in his care, his faithfulness will protect and defend you.
You need not fear any dangers at night or sudden attacks during the day or the plaques that strike in the dark or the evils that kill in daylight.
A thousand may fall beside you, ten thousand all; around you but you will not be harmed.
You will look and see how the wicked are punished.
You have made the Lord your defender, the most high your protector and so no disaster will strike you, no violence will come near your home.
God will put his angels in charge of you to protect you wherever you go.
They will hold you up with their hands to keep you from hurting your feet on the stones.
You will trample down lions and snakes, fierce lions and poisonous snakes.
God says, "I will save those who love me and will protect those who acknowledge me as Lord.
When they call to me , I will answer them, When they are in trouble, I will be with them.
I will rescue them and honor them.
I will reward them with long life, I will save them."
AMEN.

THE CHEERFUL GIVER.
THE CHEERFUL GIVER.
" The Bible states that a kind man benefits, but the cruel person brings trouble on himself- Proverbs 11:17"
While preaching to a company of His disciples and a great multitude of people, Jesus declared this all important statement of truth. Luke 6:45 saying , "A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bring forth that which is good and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his bring forth that which is evil, for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speak- Jeremiah 17:9
Experience shows that giving and happiness often go hand in hand. The Apostle Paul wrote that, "God loves a cheerful giver". He was speaking of Christians who made generous donations to help relieve the hardship of fellow believers. ( 2 Corinthians 8: 4). Paul was not saying that they gave because they were happy. The reverse was true- they were happy because they were able to give.
Indeed, according to one study, giving activates regions of the brains associated with pleasure, social connection and trust, creating a warm glow effect. Another study found that giving money to someone else lifted participants happiness more than spending it on themselves. Dear friends, have you ever felt that because of your circumstances there is not much you can do? The truth is that everyone can experience the joy of being "a cheerful giver". When given with the right motive, the sum does not have to be large.
The truth about giving is that, God will always give you back much more than you give. Jesus went further when he urged his followers," Practice giving , and people will give to you. They will pour into your laps a fine measure, pressed down, shaken together and overflowing. For with the measure that you are measuring out, they will measure out to you in returns- Luke 6:38."
May the Lord God help us. Amen.
