Earnest Seekers

By

Good morning

Scripture reading: Jeremiah 29:11-14

Worship song: Seek Ye First

 



Meditation:

    The nature of humans is to seek out things that satisfy their desires. The things you seek are evidence of your heart's desire. The earthly pleasures and possessions that we desire are only self-seeking attributes and gains, not a priority. If we seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness, all the things that are necessary and appropriate in this life according to God's will, he will grant it unto us. To seek the Lord means you desire to have a personal relationship with him, to learn more about him and his word, and to follow and obey his commands and precepts. 

    Seeking the Lord means you set your mind and heart on God, not on the corporate world. Those who sincerely seek after the Lord are those who continuously seek after righteousness, holiness, meekness, and goodness. The kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it. When you seek and find the Lord, your life will be transformed; you will be redeemed, and no longer will you be held captive, bound by Satan's bondage, or having a craving desire for the things that cannot satisfy you spiritually. You will experience God's presence and walk in his blessings. If you seek the Lord earnestly with all your heart and with all your soul, you will find him. God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek him. Now is the accepted time to devote your heart and soul to seeking the LORD, your God, while grace abounds.

Let us pray:

    Lord God, I humble myself before you, seeking fulfillment for the things that cannot be satisfied by earthly gain and carnal lust. Almighty God, I desire to humble myself in your presence, trust you, and seek you with my whole heart, knowing you control my destiny. Lord, slay pride, uproot self-willpower, and make my heart Your home. Let my whole life be to seek after you only, Lord, while you may be found and grace abound. Lord, cleanse me of all impurities and unrighteousness, turn my attention away from the things of this world, and cause me to look to you, the God of my salvation through Jesus Christ. Amen.

Have a blessed day. Shalom. ✌👏💕

    First thing first. The mistake many people make is that they try everything and when everything fails they try Jesus. This is not priority, this is last resort. With Jesus first some time things look like it is going in the wrong direction God in His power turn it around. When one trust God there is no need to panic. Relax and enjoy the ride.

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.     ...
