Title: Praise The Name of God!

-
Psalms 113:3  From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the LORD'S name is to be praised.
Devotion: The year will come to an end in a few days, meaning we have enjoyed nearly the entire journey from January till now. We are also confident that, by His grace, we will enter the new year 2025 and beyond safe and sound.
 Looking back, we'll see that we have many reasons to praise the name of the Lord. A lot of rain fell, and the soil soaked it all in. We traveled to several places, sometimes on the most dangerous roads and using precarious means of transportation, yet we arrived safely.
 When we watch the television, we see numerous road accidents, and many people are kidnapped on the roads, never to be seen again, even after ransom has been paid. Therefore, I have come to the conclusion that what is most important to me and my family is to praise God for the rest of the year.
 In fact, God created us to praise and worship Him. So, join me in singing praises to His Holy Name.
Christ Apostlic Church, Gospel Hymn 69 - HOW SWEET THE NAME OF JESUS SOUNDS

Blessed be the name of the Lord;
Blessed be the name, blessed be the name,

It gives the weary sweetest rest,
Blessed be the name of the Lord.

Blessed be the name of the Lord.

Blessed be the name of the Lord;
What a dear Saviour I have found;
Blessed be the name of the Lord.

Blessed be the name of the Lord;
Blessed be the name, blessed be the name,
Blessed be the name of the Lord.
Amen.

Title: When your time shall be over, you'll fly away.

Psalms 90:10  The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away. Devotional: Late music legend – Peter Tosh sang a song with this title many years ago. It came to mind yesterday while I listened to a beautifully delivered sermon at a burial. I therefore penned this devotional on same title. Do not be deceived, at a point in your life you’ll fly away.   There comes a day when the tapestry of your earthly existence is folded. The moments of struggle, joy, triumph, and trials will all coalesce into a story complete. When that time comes, the soul, unburdened by the weight of the mortal frame, ascends beyond the veil of this world—taking flight toward eternal rest.   You are not bound to the temporal; your essence is celestial. As the Psalmist declared, "The days of our years are threescore years and ten...it is soon cut off, and we ...
