Good Will Follow You

By

Good morning

Scripture reading: 1 Samuel 20

Worship song: God, You're So Good

 


Meditation:

    The remarkable story of Jonathan and David reflects on displaying kindness in the face of adversity. The exceptional bond between them was tested and revealed true friendship and loyalty. Jonathan, aware that his father, King Saul's reign, was nearing its end, made a powerful covenant with his trusted friend, David. He asked David to show kindness to his household once he became the reigning king. Later, Jonathan risks his life to shield and protect David from King Saul, whose boisterous behavioral display reveals his intention to kill David. 

    By helping David escape, Jonathan demonstrates true loyalty and courage. After Jonathan's death, David honored their covenant, extending kindness to Mephibosheth, Jonathan's son, by inviting him into his household to share in the abundance at his table. This act encourages the principle that repaying goodness contributes to a continuous display of kindness and compassion. When we repay kindness with kindness, it helps us deepen our appreciation for what we have received. 

    Therefore, as we have the opportunity, let us be intentional to do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith. When we choose to extend kindness to others, goodness and mercy will follow us throughout the days of our lives.

 Let us pray:

    Loving Savior, all my life, you have been faithful and good to me. Help me, Lord, to see the good in every person and in every situation and show compassion in all my actions. Lord, fill my heart with love and kindness and help me to recognize the needs of others and respond by showing empathy and compassion. Help me, Lord God, to sow seeds of mercy, kindness, and the fruit of the spirit in my words, deeds, and actions to everyone I encounter. May my life be a reflection of your grace, love, and mercy, and may your goodness and mercy follow me all the days of my life. Almighty God may your blessings meet my needs, the needs of my loved ones, and the needs of those I encounter in the name of Jesus Christ, my Lord and King. Amen.

Keep safe. Shalom. ✌💕🙏

    It is time to reflect on the goodness of God. Often time people forget about God thinking He is enough in Himself, while that is true He created us for His purpose and want us to react to His call, His voice, His words, His love. He is a God that communicates.
    He came down to talk with Adam and Eve way back in the garden of eden. He is still reaching out to humanity today. Why don't everyone have a little talk with Him. Though we cannot see Him, He can be touch. He is near, nearer than we believe. God bless you. 🙏🙏

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.

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...

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...
