No Foreign God

By

Good morning

Scripture reading: Judges 10

Praise song: You deserve the glory

 


Meditation:

    The children of Israel constantly trespassed against the Lord God by worshipping and bowing to false gods. Their desire to serve other gods kindled the wrath of God against them. They disobey God's commandments and then appeal for mercy and forgiveness. Each time they sinned against God, God left them at the mercy of their enemies and withdrew His help. The Lord told the Israelites He would no longer deliver them, but after they repent and return to God, he has mercy on them and forgave them. Jehovah God is a compassionate, merciful, loving, and forgiving God, but that does not mean we should blatantly sin against him. The same command that applies to the Israelites still applies to us today. We are to put away the foreign gods that are among us, fear the Lord, and serve Him sincerely. Anything we idolize and worship other than our creator becomes our god. The Lord our God is a jealous God and a consuming fire.

Let us pray:

   My gracious, and loving God, I am grateful for your words of wisdom as a compass to guide us into all truth. Almighty God, I have searched and found none that is worthy to take your place, and so God, I surrender my life to you as a living sacrifice with the promise to serve you sincerely. Mighty God, only you alone deserve all our worship, honor, and praise for all that you have brought us through and the opportunities you have made possible. I denounce and relinquish all foreign gods, all baal gods, and any god that seeks to take your place. I refuse to be entangled in the yoke of bondage, so I ask that you remove from me anything that I idolize above you. Please forgive me, Lord, of all my shortcomings and pardon my sins. Amen.

Have a blessed and peaceful day. 💕✌🙏

    God is indeed merciful, for if for every sins we committed He would be weary with us and forsake us, but because of His tender mercies we are not consumed. Let us consider our behavior least we are given over to our reprobate mind to do any and anything without one's conscience giving us a signal. Let us choose to walk in His ways and love.

Good morning Day of Testimony- Learning to Depend on Jesus Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all your ways ac acknowledged him, and he shall direct thy path. (Proverbs 3:5-6) Worship song: Learning to Lean on Jesus   Personal Testimony:      Looking back on my journey, I am filled with immense joy and gratitude for where the Lord brought me. Without his boundless grace, I truly would have been lost. His grace is truly sufficient for my strength is made perfect in weakness.

When I feel weary, the gentle hands of Jesus keep me steady and strong.       Every hardship I encounter brings me closer to realizing God's abundant goodness and faithfulness." I gladly boast in my weaknesses, knowing it is through them that the power of Christ shines the brightest. Learnin...

Routine Worship

By

Good morning Scripture reading: St Luke 4:16 Worship song: The Heart of Worship   Meditation:      It is customary for believers in Christ to gather in synagogues and places of worship at least once weekly to fellowship, praise, and honor God, our Creator. These religious practices, if performed without genuine desire and heart engagement, can become mere routines, detached from a life pleasing to God and a desire to glorify and submit to Him. Matthew 15:8 is a reminder that outward expression of faith must align with a heart that is connected with God. When our lives are governed by customary rituals, we become complacent, and the purpose of our worship loses its true value because we are committed to following a routine rather than seeking to develop a closer relationship with God.       Our prayers are mere words uttered from our lips with no inclination from the Holy Spirit. We read the word of God but lack the wisdom to co...

We Are Depending on You

Good morning Day of prayer - Depending on God I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth. Psalms 121:1-2                          Worship song: Jesus We're Depending on You   Let us pray:      Dependable, capable, and adorable God, I have learned to lean and depend on you to supply my needs according to your riches in glory. You are my strength and my shepherd, I lack nothing. All my help comes from You, Lord, so I put my trust in You. Daily, you provided shelter, divine blood courage, and protection for which I am extremely grateful. Lord, you have calmed the biosterous storms, kept me safe from danger, and allowed me to dance to the rhythm of your faithfulness. Amid adversity and uncertainty, you grant me hope, peace, and happiness. In my distress, your presence calms my anxieties and fears.   ...

Prioritizing Your Desire

By

Good morning Scripture: Matthew 6::25-33 Worship song: I Desire Jesus   Meditation:      What is your greatest desire in life? Is it for worldly gain or the Kingdom of Christ? Your desire to know more about Jesus Christ should be your priority over earthly pursuits. The ultimate aspiration of every believer is to deepen their relationship with Christ and follow the pathway of righteousness. As followers of Christ, we must diligently study God's word to gain knowledge and a profound understanding of his will. Our desire must be to submit fully and surrender to God, our Master.       Reflect on King Solomon's testimony. After experiencing the heights of worldly success, he realized that without a connection to God and a spiritual purpose, even the greatest achievements and pleasures are ultimately meaningless and lead to a sense of emptiness and weariness. King Solomon confessed that all his gain was vanity and vexation of spirit. While we...
