Living the Good Life

By

Good morning

Scripture reading: 1 Thessalonians 2:4

Worship Song: God Who Move the Mountains

 


Meditation:

    Most people spend their lives fulfilling the obligations and expectations of others, trying to please them in every possible way. But if we live our lives for the benefit of others, trying not to offend anyone, we are in for disappointment. One of the hardest tasks any person will ever encounter is trying to please everyone. We should seek to please Almighty God always because one day we will stand before him in judgment to give an account of our deeds. Do not live to fulfill the expectations of others, but live to please your master and creator, Jehovah God. Nothing compares to his everlasting, unconditional love. 

    When you live for Jehovah God, you are transformed into His likeness. The old things have passed away, and everything becomes new, and you will begin to experience peace and happiness deep within your soul. When you are living for Jehovah God, whatever state you find yourself in, you are content. You will worry not about your position or failures because you know whose you are. I endorse the words of Joshua when he says he will forever serve the Lord. Living to please Jehovah God comes with an eternal reward that comes only from God. Live each day to please Jesus Christ and gain life everlasting. 

Let us pray:

    Jehovah Nissi, my provider, I love calling your name. Heavenly Father, I give thee thanks for your eternal reward, which is prepared for those of us who live our lives to please you. Almighty God, grant us faith to accomplish this task, as our desire is to obey your commands and please you in every way. There is no place I would rather be than dwelling in your house all the days of my life, beholding your beauty and abiding under your shadow, O God. Spirit of the living God, descend upon my heart and disincline me of any earthly attraction so I can please you in action and speech. Almighty God, lead me to the place where my heart is not dominated by carnal pleasures but by the Holy Spirit. Keep me close to you, O God, and let Your light shine within me. Abba Father, equip me to run this race with patience and faith. Grant unto me mercy and fill me daily with fresh oil, dear God, according to your desire through Jesus Christ, my Saviour and King. Amen.

Keep your 👀 fixed on Jesus Christ. 💕🙏

    We often sing. I give myself away so you can use me, us. That song embodies our desires and purpose for the Lord in kingdom use. Of all the things one chose to do God must be apart of it else our living will be in vain. There is nothing more delightful than doing something for the Lord.
    Whatever we find ourselves doing, do it well. Inspite of our short comings. He will not allow us to backslide.
    Let us continue to strengthen each other and others. 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.     ...
