Icing on The Cake

By

Good morning

Scripture reading: 2 Corinthians 12:9-10

Praise song: Your Grace and Mercy

 


Meditation:

    When a cake is covered with frosting all you can see is the sculptor's intricate design, incorporating precise shapes and patterns for an appealing desired look. Cakes that are broken are not discarded but covered so you cannot see the imperfections that lie beneath the attractive decorations of its beautiful frosting. This is what grace does to our brokenness. The grace of God is a redeeming act of love that covers our brokenness like icing on a cake and transforms it into his radiant beauty until we are completely whole. 

    God's grace is sufficient to forgive and cleanse all sins, offering a path to redemption and a new beginning. No matter the condition of our heart, the grace of God who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Jesus Christ will strengthen, establish, and make you perfect. The grace of God is sufficient and his strength is made perfect in your weakness. We are here today thriving in his unyielding grace and mercy. Blessed beyond measure is the one whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered.

Let us pray:

    Sovereign God, I praise you for being a perfect, holy, and trustworthy God. Your grace, On God, is abundantly sufficient to forgive and cleanse all sins. Lord God, I am profoundly grateful for your grace; without it, I would have been a hopeless case, empty and broken, struggling to rise above my circumstances. Lord, I am deeply grateful for your boundless grace that sustains me, for your sacrificial love, and for the gift of salvation. Thank you, Lord God, that you have not discarded this broken vessel but have redeemed and remodeled it for your glory. Father, I avail myself to be used as your oracle, ready to be used according to your purpose in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Be safe. Shalom. 👏💕🙏

    God is a restorer, no matter how broken, scared, marred.
    He will put us back to our best order as if nothing happened. If any man be in Christ he is a new creature.
    That is the kind of Christ we serve. He is all we ever need. Shalom

During Difficult Moments

By

Good morning Scripture reading: Daniel 3:23-25 Worship song: Through The Fire   Meditation:      There will be seasons of pain, brokenness, heartache, and struggles. There will be times when our faith is tested and our hope is shattered. There will be times when we will encounter great tribulation. We will be despised by our fellow men, afflicted, rejected, condemned, and humiliated, but think it not strange concerning the fiery trials that will try you. The Hebrew boys' faith was tested and tried, but they remained resilient, fervent, and steadfast, trusting God and exercising faith while their oppressors maliciously schemed and plotted against them.       Don't think it strange when, as believers, these things happen; don't be alarmed or panic, but rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for when the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, you will be numbered among the faithful. Be cognizant of the fact that there is no trial or struggle that y...

The Death of The Wicked

By

Good morning Scripture reading: Ezekiel 33: 1-20 Praise song: Only a Look   Meditation:      All of us have an appointment with death, which we cannot cancel, for all must die. Nevertheless, there is a difference between the death of the sinner and the death of the redeemed. When the redeemed die, they will one day be resurrected to eternal life, but the ungodly to eternal torment in the lake of fire prepared for Satan and his cohorts of darkness. While Jesus was speaking to his disciples, he cautioned them not to fear those who destroy the body, but rather to fear him who can destroy both soul and body.        Those who die in Christ should not fear death, for death is not their final destiny. Those who die while meddling in their sin and wickedness, refusing to surrender to Christ, will receive the wrath of God as their reward. Jehovah God declares that he finds no joy, no pleasure in the death of the wicked, and no pleasure in the pun...

Seeking The Lost at Any Cost

By

Good morning Scripture reading: St. Luke 15:1-7 Worship song: Ninety and Nine   Meditation:      After an extensive search for a misplaced document that held significant importance, I experienced an overwhelming amount of frustration and anxiety. Finally, I decided to discontinue the search and reluctantly accepted the possibility of its loss, though I remain hopeful. Reflecting on this experience, I imagine the Lord's feelings when the ones he loved turn away from him and refuse to surrender. When we resist his call, we must remember we are precious and valuable in God's sight and his love is unconditional. His desire for us is for us to turn from our sinful ways and seek Him earnestly.       God takes no pleasure in the demise of the ungodly and does not wish for anyone to perish in their transgressions. Our shepherd, Jesus Christ, stands ready to guide us away from the path of destruction and lead us out of the wilderness of sin. God ...

An Influenced Mind

By

Good morning Scripture reading: Romans 12:1-2 Worship song: Change My Heart Oh God   Meditation:      It is important to realize that our minds can be profoundly influenced by the performance, attitude, moral standards, conduct, actions, and spoken words of others, whether negatively or positively. When we allow ourselves to be persuaded by flattery, praise, and compliments, we risk letting our lives be fashioned by others' opinions instead of our convictions. We must remember that Satan is a master of manipulation, seeking to invade and control our thoughts to influence our actions. We must be able to discern and recognize deceptive influences.       When we focus our minds on Christ, the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will safeguard our minds. Our minds are influenced by what we gravitate to, so it is vital to keep our minds focused on God and his precepts. Be not deceived; evil communications corrupt good manners. If...
