Promises Fulfilled

Scripture reading: Genesis 28

Worship Song: The Promise



Meditation:

    How often do we experience broken promises? Most often, we are either on the giving or receiving side of a broken promise. When promises are made, it sparks excitement in us as we look forward with anticipation, hoping with great expectation for that which is promised. Some people have genuinely kept their promises. Some have a compassionate heart with the desire to assist and fulfill their promises, but there are others who either forget or never intend to fulfill their promise in the first place. Some people mean well and are genuine, but circumstances hinder them from keeping their promises. Remember, human beings are not perfect and make errors. However, do not be discouraged by this, but be encouraged because we have a promisekeeper who never fails to fulfill all His promises. His name is Jesus Christ. In Isaiah 43, the Lord promises the Israelites that he will be with them always. He assures them he will protect, provide, guide, and keep them safe. Almighty God promises Abraham that he will bless his seed and increase them as the sand of the seas. Though Abraham did not live to see the fulfillment of the promises, his generation did. Abraham believed in God, obeyed him, and put his hope and trust in his promises. When we trust and put our faith in God, we can see His promises manifest. To receive from God, we must be obedient, trust His plan, and patiently wait upon Him. 


Let's pray:

    Sovereign God, ruler of heaven and earth, I pray, O God, that we will learn to humble ourselves before you and to patiently wait upon you to fulfill your purposes within us. Mighty God, may we, like Abraham, yield to you and obey your commands. I pray, O God, that you will order our steps in your word, O God. Covenant Keeping God, thank you for being our promise keeper. I am grateful that whenever you make a promise, you will not go back on your words. Thank you, Lord, for the promises that have been fulfilled and the ones that are yet to come. We bask in your glory and your holy presence, Abba Father, and we extend sincere thanks to you for healing, favor, protection, freedom from fear, peace, and safety. We declare your promises fulfilled, and we boldly speak them into existence through Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Amen. 


Peace and love 🩷

In Him Will I Trust

Good morning Scripture reading: Psalm 20 Worship song: I Will Say of The Lord   Meditation:      When the children of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir rose up against King Jehoshaphat of Judah, he became afraid and sought the Lord's help. He proclaimed a solemn fast throughout all of Judah, and all the people stood before God, including women and children, seeking his divine help against the great armies. Jehoshaphat urged the people of Judah and Jerusalem to believe in the Lord God and trust the word of the messenger, and they would prosper and triumph in the battle against the army that pursued them. He also appointed singers to worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness and to praise him for his mercy endures forever (2 Chronicles 20).       When you are facing giants, cry out to God, trust His plans, and worship Him with a sincere heart; praise Him in the beauty of holiness. Do not be like those who trust in earthly rulers, human strength...

 Day of prayer   O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: because his mercy endureth forever. Psalm 118:1   Worship song: Thanks   Let us pray:      Almighty one, let your mercy prevail over us, O God, breathe upon us afresh and renew our mindset until it overflows with gratitude and thankfulness as we celebrate with appreciation your goodness, grace, and mercy.

Purification of The Heart

By

Good morning Scripture: St. Matthew 15:8-20 Worship song: Create in Me A Clean Heart   Meditation:      The heart symbolizes the center or core of our being from which we operate. It is like the driving force behind our actions. It can be referred to as a person's character or the place within a person where feelings or emotions are generated. The heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked. Jeremiah, the prophet, says, who can know it? (Jeremiah 17:9). Only God can. He searches the heart, tries it, and rewards every man according to his ways and the fruit it produces. The heart is like a factory where products are produced and exported.       Whatever evil the heart produces, it will be shipped throughout the rest of our body, exit through our mouth, and defile us. Among the things that the heart produces are evil thoughts, wickedness, stealing, envy, striving, covetousness, and the like. A person is made or broken by wha...

Miracle Working God

Good morning Blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him. (Jeremiah 17:7). Hymn: My Hope is Built on Nothing Less   Testimony:      When God has you covered, when his hands of mercy and grace are extended, and when your faith is stronger than your situation, you can rejoice and glorify the King of kings. My faith and trust in God are further heightened, and my hope has increased after hearing a victory testimony from a relative who doctors thought had no chance of survival after his diagnosis. I can truly say my God is good, O, and he is still working miracles. A recent medical examination determined that there was no trace of cancer in his body. Through prayer, praise, faith, trusting God, a strict diet plan, follow-up visits to the physician, and nurture and care by his loving wife, who stood by him, pampering, comforting, and nursing him, he is now rejoicing and giving God thanks. Look what the Lord has done.     ...
