THE HELPLESS STATE OF HUMANITY

There is an old proverb in the world that the Lord helps those who help themselves. Jesus came to help those who could not help themselves. Everyone who gets anything from God has to come to the place where he realises his inability to help himself. So long as a man feels that he can help himself he will not, as a rule, go to the Lord for help. When a man realises his utter helplessness and turns from himself to put his trust in God he is in a good place to receive something from God. When Jesus said, "Wilt thou be made whole?" the impotent man answered, "Sir I have no man, . . . " This man suffered for thirty‑eight years and had no man to help him. How like the song, which tells us that there was no arm to save and that there was no eye to pity until Jesus, our Saviour, from Glory came down. Even if there had been a man to help him into the pool, it was only God Who could make him whole. Worldly friends may be able to help us in some situations, but only Jesus can save us. This man needed salva­tion, for Jesus said unto him, "Sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee." His disease was, no doubt, brought on through sin. Jesus healed him, forgave him, and gave him power to "sin no more."...This same jesus is alive today, my brethren what ever you are going through Jesus is aware, He said in is words in the book of  Matthew  18:11 For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost...
Matthew  5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil... Jesus in sitting beside you He knows your problems all you need do is reach out to Him let Him in into your heart,Jesus said Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest...Do you need Rest??? Talk to jesus He's Right There.

Are we under any obligation to praise God?

Yes!!! Our sole purpose in life is to praise God. To buttress more on this point, the book of psalms explains how important it is for us ...
