Good Morning Mwebantu,
Here is your word for today:
Verse: Isaiah 58:9
‘Then you will call, and the LORD will answer; you will cry for help, and He will say: Here am I.’
– What a privilege and a joy we have to be able to call on the Lord for help.
– We are not doing life alone because He is with us.
– Today He says to you: ‘Here I am!’
– He is the one who hears our prayers and cries and He helps us.
PRAYER: Lord, thank You that right now You are here with me. You have promised never to abandon or forsake me and I take hold of Your hand today. Amen.
Have a wonderful Saturday
Kind Regards

Good Morning Mwebantu,
Here is your word for today:
Verse: Ezra 6:22
‘There was great joy throughout the land because the LORD had caused the king to be favourable to them.’
– We must always remind ourselves that God can turn any situation around.
– Often He will use people to play a role in the change that needs to happen.
– In this story He used a king and changed a situation completely.
– The Lord knows your situation and He is committed to giving the help you need.
PRAYER: Lord, thank You that You are in control of all things. Nothing is too difficult for You and You can use anything and anyone to bring the help and relief I need. Amen.
Have a blessed Thursday.
Kind Regards
