The Thief of opportunities

By

Good morning

Scripture: Ecclesiastes 11:3-7

Worship song: I Have Decided

 


Meditation:

    Making decisions is most likely the hardest thing to do. Most times we hesitate or ignore making decisions, which in turn causes us to lose out on valuable opportunities. When confronted with choices, everyone faces decision phobia at times. Farmers will hesitate to sow because their eyes are focused on the clouds. People may hesitate to move forward because of the fear of loss, making wrong choices, as well as the fear of failure. He who observed the wind will not sow, and he who is fearful cannot make the right decisions. Do not allow indecision to control your life and rob you of opportunities, happiness, and growth. 

    Whatever opportunities are available, review your options and select the best choice possible. However, there is one decision that should not be hampered by fear or influenced by negativity, and that is the decision to follow Jesus Christ and live by His commands and precepts. The opportunities of choosing Jesus Christ have everlasting benefits that cannot be altered or reversed by human beings or any gods. Move forward with confidence in God, serve Him, and trust His plan. 

Let us pray:

    Omnipresent, Omniscient, Omnipotent God, I give thee thanks, O God, for your grace and tender mercies. Lord, at times we are faced with uncertainties in decision-making. We want to choose but are afraid to fail or make choices that will jeopardize our future. God, just as it is hard to tell if the sun will shine during the day, is the same challenge we are faced with to make decisions of which we don't know what the outcome will be. We pray, O God, that you will grant us wisdom and lead us to make choices that will positively benefit us. Daddy Jesus, let not our choices be for earthly gain and physical benefits only, but for your glory and spiritual upliftment as well. Mighty God, help us to rid indecision from our lives for the benefit of moving towards our purposes through our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Amen.

Have a great day. Peace out. ✌🙏

    All options are open. Choose ye this day who you will serve weather God or mammon. Such is the choice for one's eternal salvation, we have that choice for our secular lives.
    One can impact their life negatively or positively base on their decision. One must carefully examine and access things with the leading of the Holy Spirit before embarking on serious things. Once one admit this is of God, it does not mean everything will be perfect or without errors but it is through the varing circumstances that God will sort things out once there is admission and acceptance of His leading. Let us trust Him in the darkest hour. His light will come shining through. 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.     ...
