Who Do You Serve?

By

Good morning 

Scripture reading: Joshua 24:14-15

Praise song: Mighty One

 


Meditation:

    Joshua declared that all those within his household would serve the Lord. Joshua witnessed the power of Almighty God as he led the children of Israel through the wilderness, and therefore he was able to declare that he and his household will serve the Lord. Joshua encouraged the Israelites and advised them to serve the Lord sincerely, seek him earnestly, and forget about the gods whom their forefathers served. They had a choice to choose whether or not they wanted to serve the Lord. When you come in contact with the creator of the universe, the God who created you in His own image and likeness, you can't resist the desire to serve him wholeheartedly. Serving the Lord is an open invitation freely offered to all persons. No one can force you to choose whom you want to serve. However, remember, the choice you make today will determine your eternity. As you make your decision, whether to serve the Lord or mammal, bear in mind that one day we will all stand before the judgment throne to give an account to God of how we spend the time allotted to us. 

 Let's pray:

    Almighty God, I exalt thee, O Lord, and place you above all else, for you are our great high priest. Father, we serve thee with gladness and come into your presence with praise because you are our Lord and King. Jehovah God, I declare that no foreign god will ever take your place, for you alone deserve the glory and honor. I will praise you, O God, for marvelous are your works and manifestations. Almighty God, I am grateful for the opportunity to choose whom we will serve. Father, I have chosen to serve you, and I desire to seek you daily, to dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, and to behold the beauty of the Lord. Father, I pray that more persons will earnestly seek to serve you and accept you as Lord and Saviour because you are our only hope, our reason for living. Abba, Father, many are the tribulations and trials we face, but I know you will deliver us out of them all, and so I call upon you to lead, guide, and protect us in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Amen.

Have a peaceful day. Keep safe. ✌💕

    What joy it is to serves the Lord wholeheartedly. It is more than the confidence we put in the chair we sit on or the plane we fly in. God is the source of all life. We should not cast our confidence away which have so great recompense of reward. He is our anchor that holds. Let us do the things that add life to life.

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.

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.     ...
