God's Covenant with Human

By

Good morning

Scripture reading: Genesis 9: 8-17

Worship song: Covenant Keeping God

 


Meditation:

    Sin among men was so prevalent and blatant that God decided to wipe out the entire nation. But, although His wrath was kindled because of man's rebellion, and though He regretted making man, he didn't destroy them all because one man makes a difference. Noah and his family escaped the wrath of God because his lifestyle was pleasing to God. Therefore, after the flood, which wiped out the entire nation, God established a covenant with Noah. The covenant God made with Noah affirms His commitment to creation. God's covenant is a demonstration of His love for his creation uttered through His spoken words as a promise never again to destroy all living creatures from the face of the earth by the waters of a flood. God's covenant didn't stop there because He further established a covenant with Abraham to multiply his seed as the sand of the sea. God also made many other covenants with other patriarchs. All the covenant God established is to benefit mankind and redeem them to Himself. The most substantial agreement today is the new covenant God made with Jesus Christ to redeem mankind to Himself and pay the liability for the punishment of sin. Human rebellion threatens to jeopardize God's ultimate objective, but God, through His love for mankind and infinite wisdom, established a way for us to escape death to sin and live eternally.

Let us pray:

    My faithful covenant-keeping God, God of Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Isaiah, I worship and adore you, for you are great and greatly to be praised. Almighty God, your love for us speaks volumes; how can we refuse such great love? We recognized your limitless love, Lord God, and so we give you thanks for revealing unto us how much you love us. We are grateful, Almighty God, for the covenant you have established and the promises you have kept. Father, though we have been rebellious and have been corrupted by our sinful nature, yet, mighty God, you continue to implore us backsliding nation to return to you. Father, we are grateful that you have kept your promise to redeem and deliver us from the path of destruction. Almighty God, we are grateful to you for your love, compassion, grace, and mercy. We give you thanks, O Lord, for bringing us to a place of sweet peace, a place where our soul is watered, revived, and renewed through your Holy Spirit in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Shalom. 💗🙏

    One of the thing about God.
    He never go back on His covenant regardless of human behavior. However though, one will not escape the consequences for their disobedience. We must acknowledge His promises to us and remain faithful because He cannot lie and is faithful to His promises.
    If we could only keep our promises to the Lord, to one another how beautiful life would be. Let us perfect our lives through a better relationship with the Lord.
    Have a great day.

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...

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.     ...
