The Blame Game

By

Good morning

Scripture reading: 2 Peter 3

Worship song: The Lord Will Fix It



Meditation:

    If the question is asked regarding who is to be blamed for the state of criminal activities and the evil that plagues the world, I am sure we will get mixed responses. Some would cast blame on the parent's upbringing; others would blame the schools, the media, the church, the members of the security force, the fulfilment of Bible prophecy, and the list goes on. However, the blame game cannot change the fact that the damage is already done, but the evil spell can be broken if we turn to Jesus Christ and surrender all to Him. I stand by the words written in 2 Chronicles 7:14, and I still believe that God is waiting for us to turn to him so he can heal our land. St. Matthew 7:7-8 reminds us to ask, and we will receive, seek and we will find, knock, and it shall be opened unto us. Our answer to our problems lies in prayer, fasting, repentance, and the power of Almighty God. There is no evil altar that God cannot dismantle. Let us exercise our mustard seed faith and seek Almighty God for wisdom as we strive to take back our young people and our country from the captivator, the ruler of darkness.

Let us pray:

    Almighty God, I bow in your presence, perturbed but not in despair. Abba Father, I call upon thee, O God, to dismantle the gangs that Satan and his cohorts have established across our nation. Almighty God, I beseech you to confuse their languages and abort their evil plans. Release the vulnerable from the grasp of Satan's stronghold, mighty God. Almighty God, I place all parents, leaders, unbelievers, teachers, politicians, and security who have failed to uphold moral principles. Almighty God, the lack of accountability on the path of each sector has eroded ethical standards. We have failed miserably to nurture and bring up the children to fear and love you with a sincere heart, O God. We hereby confess our failures and appeal to you to forgive us, Lord. Almighty God, I pray that those who have drifted from you will once again erect family altars in their homes and call on your name, O God. Grant us wisdom and understanding to know deception, the difference between evil and good and the desire to choose what is right. Father, examine our ways and remove evil desires from within us. Purify our hearts, O God, filter our minds, remove all impurities, and fill us with love and compassion one towards another through Jesus Christ of Nazareth, our Saviour. Amen. 

Have a peaceful day. Keep safe. 💕

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.     ...
