The Donation Gift

By

Good morning

Scripture reading: Matthew 26: 27-28

Worship song: O The Blood

 


Meditation:

    Donating blood is a voluntary procedure that many persons willingly participate in to help save lives. The life of every creature is in the blood, so when blood is shed and drains from the body, it means life has ended. Blood is needed to sustain life. However, not everyone willing to donate blood can do so because of medical requirements and health conditions. Blood donors have to meet all necessary medical eligibility standards and be in good health to prevent the receiver from getting a bloodborne infection. Blood is essential in sustaining life and was used in many instances as a spiritual contact point with God for the remission of sin. The blood offering of an animal with no blemish, spot, or defects (not lame) was a sacrificial requirement in the Old Testament for the atonement of sin. But that requirement was changed through Jesus Christ, who was preordained before the foundation of the world, in whom we have redemption through his shed blood for the forgiveness of our sins. Today, you and I are not redeemed by the tradition of our forefathers nor with corruptible things, but by the precious blood of Jesus Christ, the spotless Lamb of God.

Let us pray:

    Everlasting Father, clothed in splendor and majesty, I exalt you, precious Lamb of God because you are the great I Am who takes away my sins. Almighty God, there is no greater love than this that I will ever experience than your sacrificial offering for my victory over sin. Lord God, I am grateful that we are not redeemed by corruptible things or the blood of animals but with the precious blood of Christ, the spotless lamb of God who had no sin, no blemish, or spots, who was foreordained before the foundation of the world. Almighty God, I behold you as the holy, precious Lamb of God who was born into sin that we may live again. Thank you, Lord, for the purification of our mind, body, and soul and for restoring and redeeming us from the dark domain through our Saviour, Jesus Christ. Amen.

Have a blessed 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.     ...
