What's In Your Hand

Good Morning Scripture reading: Exodus 4:1-3 Worship song: Hands of Jesus   Meditation:      God can utilize ordinary objects, existing skills, or limited resources to achieve extraordinary miracles. He demonstrated His absolute authority over mankind and nature by transforming the ordinary staff Moses held in His hand into a powerful symbol of His power. From a youth's hands, Jesus received five barley loaves and two fish, blessed them, and multiplied them to satisfy the multitudes. (St. John 6: 9-12). Samson defeated a thousand enemies with a donkey's jawbone (Judges 15:15).       David courageously approached Goliath with five smooth stones and a sling, successfully triumphing over the giant. (1 Samuel 17:40-49). What is in your hands? Entrust your limited resources to God, who can turn the ordinary into an extraordinary achievement and watch Him unlock your true potential. Lay down your burdens and place your hardships in the hands o...

The Enemy Was Crushed

By

Good morning Scripture reading: Exodus 14:21-30 Worship song: Let Your Power Fall   Meditation:      The most stubborn and hardened heart can shatter under the crushing weight of profound tragedy. God gave Moses specific instructions to speak to Pharaoh and demand the release of the children of Israel, but Pharaoh stubbornly refused. The tragic loss of Pharaoh's firstborn son broke his stubbornness, compelling him to end the enslavement of the children of Israel. Nonetheless, his immediate remorse prompted him to deploy his army to pursue them.       Upon realizing their enemies were in pursuit, the Israelites panicked and rebelled against Moses. Still, God saved them from their enemies for His name's sake so that they could witness His mighty miraculous power. Obeying God's command Moses rebuked the Red Sea and it dried up. He then led the Israelites through the depths, as through the wilderness to safety and the water returned to its p...

Hidden in the Sand

By

Good morning Scripture reading: Exodus 2:11-15 Worship song: Jesus Forgive Me   Meditation:      It is human instinct to protect loved ones and defend them from harm in every way possible. On most occasions, people are driven by a spontaneous inclination to act, especially intervening to defend someone from injustice. This was the case with Moses, whose impulsive action led him to act on instinct without considering the consequences of his decision. Moses's attempt to conceal his action reflects the human tendency to conceal wrongdoing and sin. However, we cannot hide from God, because there is nothing covered that shall not be revealed, nor hidden that shall not be known (Luke 12:2).       David affirms God's omnipresent and omniscient power in Psalm 139. The eyes of the Lord are in every place, keeping watch over good and evil (Proverbs 15:3). He that hides his sins shall not prosper, but whoever chooses to confess and forsake sin will...

Travelling First Class

By
Image
Good morning Scripture reading: St. John 14:1-6 Worship song: One Way Flight   Meditation:      Traveling first-class offers a uniquely luxurious experience, characterized by supreme comfort and tranquility that stands apart from standard travel. These flights offer a premium level of service and comfort that the average traveler typically does not experience. We are all required to choose one of the two available first-class flights.       There is one first-class flight destined for Paradise, for the born-again, faith-believing, sanctified, and redeemed who accept and acknowledge Jesus Christ as Lord. And there is also a first-class flight destined for destruction, a broad road, for those who have rejected Christ, refused to obey his commands, and are living a reckless, wanton life bound by sin.       These are the only available options, and they are mandatory flights that we must embark on, one for sinners and one...

Urging Radical Conversion

By

Good morning Scripture reading: 2 Timothy 4:1-4 Worship song: Show Us Christ   Meditation:      Saint Bernardino of Siena widely celebrated as the "Apostle of Italy" drew massive outdoor crowds with his passionate sermons, urging radical conversion and famously popularizing devotion to the Holy name of Jesus, compelling people to turn away from worldly corruption and fully dedicate their lives to the saving power of God.       Bernardino’s preaching was grounded in a deep, burning love for God, which he believed was accessible to everyone through the name of Jesus. He taught believers to adore the Redeemer and rely entirely on the power of God's grace during tribulations. He emphasizes that God watches over the soul, and human free will should guide individuals to live lives pleasing to their Creator.       The preaching of the undiluted, uncompromised Word of God calls for boldness, sincerity, and absolute allegiance...

A Father's Love

By

Happy Father’s Day Good morning   Scripture reading: St. Luke 15:11-32 Song: How Deep The Father’s Love For Us   Meditation:      The compelling narrative in St. Luke 15 highlights the unconditional love and sincere compassion of a father for his children. The younger son's disrespectful request for his inheritance and his reckless lifestyle choices made his father's arms open wide to receive him. His father taught him moral principles, but all that he had learned was overshadowed by the extravagant lifestyle he adopted in the foreign country. Destitute, empty, and broken, he returned to his father, who was waiting in anticipation for his return. The father, overwhelmed with joy, forgave and welcomed his son home.       This story exemplifies God's unconditional love for us. God's love extends to all whether you are a backslider, sinner, atheist, believer, or unbeliever. He loves sincerely though he despises the actions that displ...

Evaluation of Circumstances

Good morning Scripture reading: Nehemiah 6:1-9 Worship song: Fifth Stone Discernment   Meditation:      In our society, we are surrounded by individuals who may present themselves as genuine but possess concealed and potentially harmful motives. Sadly, many have been manipulated into leaving the safety of their homes, ultimately falling victim to tragedies orchestrated by acquaintances and trusted friends. It is naturally challenging to discern whether a seemingly sincere person's intentions are truly authentic or disguising malice, as their outward demeanor can easily conceal their true motives.       Nehemiah’s profound spiritual discernment enabled him to quickly identify the ulterior motives of his adversaries. When Sanballat and Tobiah attempted to summon him, he recognized their invitation as a malicious trap and firmly refused to go. Like Nehemiah, let us exercise wisdom, caution, and vigilance when responding to requests, always ...

A Letter From The Producer

By
Image
Good morning Scripture reading: 2 Timothy 3:15-17 Worship song: Family Bible   Meditation:      Data published by the American Bible Society shows that an estimated 14% of the adult population in the US maintains a daily habit of Scripture reading. The Bible is not just a manual; it is a compilation of letters and stories written by the ultimate Producer to guide our lives. The Bible outlines the path to salvation, forgiveness, and a restored relationship with God. It provides answers about human identity, the origin of the universe, and moral and ethical guidance.       Despite the Bible's life-changing truths and heavenly wisdom, we frequently neglect this essential resource, dedicating very little time to reading and absorbing its message. The ultimate purpose of the sacred text is to ensure that the faithful are completely furnished for all good works. If we do not read it, we starve ourselves of the very guidance we need to grow spi...
