Hey there, Welcome to Your Daily Dose of God!
Feeling overwhelmed by life's struggles? You're not alone, and you've come to the right place. Here, you'll find comfort, hope, and a daily dose of motivation to strengthen your walk with God.
There was a time when I felt hopeless, lonely, and frustrated. During those moments, I started writing these devotions with the Holy Spirit's guidance. They brought me peace and hope, and I want to share that same comfort with you.
After
the death of Joseph and the passing of the King of Egypt, a new ruler began to
reign who knew not about the role or affairs of Joseph. The new king, Pharaoh,
ruled with an iron fist, instructing the taskmasters to afflict the Israelites
and forcing them to work under oppression, but their cries did not fall on deaf
ears. God heard the cries of the Israelites. He knew their sorrows, and he saw
their affliction, and he said he came down to deliver them out of the hands of
their oppressors. God had revealed to Abraham that his generation would sojourn
in a strange land for four hundred years, and there they would undergo great
affliction. God assured Abraham that he would bring judgement to the nation of
Egypt and that He would deliver his generation from bondage. God was faithful
to His promise. You might have been praying constantly, pleading to God to
deliver you out of the hands of your oppressors. For years, you might be
seeking God's help to combat physical or spiritual issues while praying for
healing, deliverance, and breakthrough, but whatever your state, remember, God
sees, hears, and knows. Your cries have not fallen on deaf ears. Keep on
praying, and wait a little while longer, for God is not slack in his promise.
Wait and be of good courage, for the God who delivered the Israelites will
deliver you at the appointed time. Continue to pray and trust God
Let's pray:
Sovereign God, the God of Abraham, Isaac, Shadrach, Meshach,
and Abednego, the God who delivered the Israelites from bondage, I honour and
exalt you as my King. Promise keeping God, great in power, majesty, and
loyalty, the God who knows all about us, I worship you, for there is none like
you, mighty God. Abba Father, we often become overwhelmed with the chaos, the
cruelty, and the bitter woes we encounter, but remind us, O God, that we serve
a capable God who sees, knows, and hears and can deliver us from every
situation. Remind us, O God, that despite the affliction, the oppression, and
the acts of evil that surround us, you are still in control. Almighty God, to
us, the wait is long, but remind us, O God, that your ways of operating are
different from ours, and your thoughts surpass our limited thoughts. Abba
Father, grant us patience to wait upon you for help, Lord, for there is none to
deliver us except you, mighty God. Father, grant us courage and endurance as we
wait upon you in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.Amen. (Child of the King).
Good morning Scripture reading: Joshua 2 Worship song: Jesus Use Me Meditation: There are a specific purpose and plan for everything under the sun, a principle that the story of Rahab, a Canaanite woman and a prominent figure in the book of Joshua, beautifully illustrates. Rahab resided in Jericho, a city known for its strong pagan worship, during the time when the Israelites, led by Joshua, were preparing to conquer the land of Canaan. She is highlighted as someone who hid the Israelites' spies demonstrating her faith in God. She believed in the God of the Israelites and was aware of his divine power and faithfulness towards the Israelites. For her bravery and kindness towards the spies, Joshua ensured that her entire household was rescued before the city was destroyed. See Joshua 6:22-25, and Hebrews 13:21. Rahab and her family integrated into the Israelites' community. Scholars believe that she later married Salmon (Matthew 1:5) and bo...
Good morning Scripture Reading: James 1:12-17 Hymn: Yield Not to Temptation Meditation: We are reminded in 1 Corinthians 10:13 that there is no temptation we experience that is not common among humans. There is absolutely nothing we can do to avoid being tempted, and none of us is exempt from being beguiled. Satan is crafty and cunning, so much so that he thought he could beguile the Son of God. The only power Satan has over us is temptation; when confronted with a situation that appeals to our human desires, we are all capable of succumbing to that pressure. Temptation is not easy to resist, but God's promise assures us that we will not be tempted above that which we can endure. No doubt there will be times when we fail the test because we rely on our own strength, because we become distracted, and because we ignore the warning signals. Whenever you are tempted, remember that you are not alone and that you will never f...
Good morning Scripture reading: Acts 3:19-26 Worship song: O Come to the Altar Meditation: We are encouraged to genuinely repent of our transgressions and turn to God, so our sins can be completely blotted out, granting us the right to experience a time of refreshing in the presence of the Lord. A time of refreshing is a promised state of spiritual renewal, restoration, and profound hope promised to individuals seeking a deeper, more intimate relationship with God. This salvation is possible upon the acceptance of Jesus Christ as the prophesied Messiah. Those who refused Jesus faced judgment as a result of their own decision and are already condemned. The final consequence for individuals who decline salvation and the invitation to change their ways is eternal condemnation. Anyone who disregards Jesus and his teachings will face severe punishment for their actions. But if a sinner repents and turns from their sinful way...
Good morning Scripture reading: Ephesians 1:2-7 Worship song: Redeemed Meditation: God's love for us surpasses all human comprehension and exceeds anything we could ever ask or imagine. His infinite love for humanity is demonstrated through His unselfish sacrificial offering of Jesus Christ, the spotless lamb of God who had no iniquity, corruption, or sin. The blood of Jesus Christ is more precious than silver and gold and has the power to redeem and cleanse us from all our sins and liberate us from Satan's bondage. While all people are subject to the consequences of sin, those who accept Jesus Christ will be granted salvation and eternal life, thereby avoiding divine judgment. Those who accept Jesus Christ are redeemed by His blood, their transgression forgiven, and their sins covered. The redeeming blood of Jesus Christ saves, sanctifies, purifies, cleanses, satisfies, and sets us free. His grace and mercies are extended t...
