Extreme Makeover

By

Good morning

Scripture reading: 1 Peter 1:13-21

Worship song: Make Me Over Again

 


Meditation:

    It appears that people are having trouble accepting their physical appearance. They place great emphasis on their appearance and will take drastic measures to achieve and accomplish their desire for a complete body makeover. Many are spending thousands of dollars to reconstruct their appearance by using Botox treatments. There is nothing wrong with enhancing our outward appearance because caring about our physique is self-love. But when a person goes to the extreme to change and modify what God has designed to suit their ego, it says a lot about their deprivation of personal self-esteem and lack of appreciation for God's creation. We do not need a physical body makeover; what we need is a complete spiritual makeover. Do not try to blend in with the world nor conform to the things of the world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind so that you may prove what is good, acceptable, and the perfect will of God. The most significant change is a life surrender to Jesus Christ, which is the only makeover that mankind truly needs. We all need an extreme spiritual transition, so let us allow God to change us from the inside out. Beauty transpires within and radiates outward. Only God can change us without altering our appearance.

 Let us pray:

    Everlasting Father, our creator and sculptor, I bow in reverence to you, O Lord, my maker. Almighty God, you are the potter, and we are the clay, so I beseech you, Father God, to take this lump of clay, mold it, make it, and fashion it into your likeness for your glory, God. Father God, root out that which you have not sown and pluck up that which you have not planted, Mighty God. Father God, the only makeover we need is a spiritual makeover that will eliminate the lifestyle associated with the former conversation of the older version of us. Grant us, Jehovah God, a makeover in which God is created in righteousness and true holiness. Lord, we need a makeover that will last until eternity, so I ask, Father God, that you renew our minds, change our hearts, and give us a heart like thine, a heart that is humble, pure, loving, and kind. Create in us a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within us. Father, exchange our ways and thoughts for that which satisfies you in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour. Amen.

Have a blessed day. Shalom. 💕🙏

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.     ...
