Unless the Lord of hosts Had left to us a very small remnant, We would have become like Sodom, We would have been made like Gomorrah. Isaiah 1:9 NKJV

God’s love and covenant with His people is everlasting. No matter the severity of His anger and devastating His judgement, He will always by His mercy and compassion left for His people at least a small remnant through which He can still manifest His faithfulness and confirm His promises.

In everything, God will always remain merciful. His anger is only for a moment but His mercy endures forever. So, know this, that you are still alive today is never by your own merit but only be the mercy of God. You are not in any way better, holier or more righteous than those who have perished or destroyed by various disasters, arsons and plaques that had happened all over the world. You have escaped only by God’s mercy.

However, you are not to take God’s mercy, love and grace towards you for granted. You must always bear in mind God’s purpose for making you a survivor. You are to live for His praise, honour and glory. So, make your life count today and always by pursuing that which is just, right and live a life that brings glory to God. Never misuse or abuse the privilege to be alive but maximize it by investing your entire life and living for Jesus and the expansion of His Kingdom on earth. May the Lord God help you to be occupied by Him and for Him always in Jesus name. Good morning and do have a prosperous week.

Your brother,
