Spiritually Malnourish

By

Good morning

Scripture reading: 1 Peter 2:1-3

Worship song: My worship

 


Meditation:

    Being spiritually malnourished indicates a deficiency in the essentials our spirit needs for growth and strength. Just as our bodies require adequate nutrition, our spirit man demands sustenance from God to function adequately. When we neglect our spiritual diet, we risk becoming weak, weary, and disconnected from our faith. Spiritual malnourishment can result from inadequate intake of the divine nutrients needed to nourish our spirits. This situation has led to many becoming weaker and weaker in their faith. 

    Many Christians experience spiritual malnourishment because they neglect prayer, fail to spend time in the word, and do not meditate on God's teachings. A lack in any area of our spiritual life can lead to feelings of hopelessness, decreased faith, and loss of trust. To be spiritually nourished we must commit to daily meditation on the word of God, engage in fervent prayer, and submit to the guidance of the Holy Spirit. 

    Addressing these challenges requires obedience, commitment, dedication, and determination to be effective stewards of God's divine purpose.

 Let us pray:

    Merciful, wonderful Savior, my redeemer and friend, I exalt you, O Lord; you are truly worthy to be praised. Almighty God, I declare that as we labor, we will not labor only for the things that perish. Lord, we will continue to seek spiritual nourishment by feasting on your word until our soul is satisfied. Break every stronghold that binds us and remove the distractions that do not contribute to our spiritual growth. As we seek to satisfy our physical appetite, may we earnestly seek to pursue and consume the meals you have prepared for us to grow spiritually. Almighty God, I proclaim a change in our hearts and a renewed appetite for the things associated with you in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen. 

Shalom. ✌🙏

    Blessed morning. God is faithful. I will bless thee oh Lord, I will bless thee oh Lord, with a heart of thanksgiving,
    I will bless thee oh lord. Loving God, thank You for Your Word and the truths it contains. I pray that like David, I would bless You at all times and in all circumstances. I pray that I may develop an attitude of grateful thanks and worshipful praise in every area of my life - no matter how mundane the task may be. I pray that in all things and at all times, I would seek to glorify You. Help me always to have an attitude of gratitude and to thank you for being in my life in every season. Amen. Stay Blessed. 🙌

    The one invited into a home is considered special guest because not everyone receive such opportunity. As pertaining to our Lord no one should not hesitate to let Him in. Lives are made different today because of Him, if it was not so there would be more murders, and many such others. Once we let Him in, let us not let Him out. Have a bless day my wonderful friend. ❤️❤️🙏🙏

Spiritual Decline

By

Good morning Scripture reading: Isaiah 59:1-4 Worship song: Here's My Heart   Meditation:      Spiritual decline refers to a decrease or deterioration of one's connection to the Divine, marked by a decline in faith, moral integrity, spiritual wisdom, or religious devotion. This is often caused by disobedience to God's word, increased idolatry practices, indulgence in worldly pleasures, and a decrease in godly and ethical standards. Neglecting to pray and a lack of spiritual energy, demonstrated by a loss of desire to worship and connect with other believers, mark the beginning of all spiritual decline.       When we neglect God's divine direction and uphold our own standards, it demonstrates spiritual blindness and a hardness of heart. It is our unholy actions that create a barrier between us and God. As stated in Isaiah 52, our wrongful actions caused God to turn away, preventing Him from hearing our pleas as He withdraws Himself f...

Nowhere to Run, Nowhere to Hide

Good morning Scripture reading: Psalms 139 Worship song: Where Can I Go   Meditation:      Overwhelmed with emotion, the Psalmist reflects on God's incredible, infinite power and omnipresence, marveling that God is intimately acquainted with every detail of his life, even his most hidden thoughts and feelings. God's wisdom and knowledge are unattainable; none has the power to obtain them. While we can earn academic titles, and be blessed with the spirit of discernment, we can never earn the boundless wisdom and knowledge that belong only to God. The Psalmist acknowledged that God's power is beyond human understanding. He realizes he cannot hide from God because God is always watching.       As Psalm 139 states, there is nowhere to flee from God's presence. Though we might hide our wrongdoings and indulgences from human view, all our actions, whether righteous or wicked, are laid exposed before God to whom we must give account. We cannot ...

The Stumbling Blocks

By

Good morning Scripture reading: Ezekiel 14:1-8 Worship song: At Your Feet   Meditation:      The Lord rescued the Israelites from Egypt and took them away from their lifestyle of bondage in slavery and their customary worship of idols. The Israelites encountered the love of God and were granted freedom through his divine power. Nonetheless, they regularly transgressed against the Lord and returned to idolatry, and for that, many of them did not reach the promised land. Like the Israelites, many of us, after encountering freedom, have returned to our former lifestyle, allowing our self-will and desires to cause us to be entangled again in the yoke of sin and transgressions.       Those who believe in Christ experience a spiritual rebirth, a transformation from their old lifestyle governed by sin to a new spiritual identity in Christ. Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of old, for Christ can do a new thing in you. Esca...

Squatters Occupying the Land

By

Good morning Scripture reading: Numbers 34:1-13 Worship Song: Way Maker   Meditation:      God made a covenant with Abraham in which he promised he would multiply his seed and make of him a great nation. God promised to bless him and his generation and give them the land of Canaan. The land was already occupied by various inhabitants, but God had to evict them so that Abraham and his descendants could possess the land. Our thoughts and hearts are vulnerable to the controlling influence of Satan's forces, who act as spiritual squatters.       To remove these spiritual intruders, we must invite Jesus Christ to take possession of our inner lives. Satan and his cohorts will remain inhabitants until we actively invite Jesus Christ into our lives to forcibly evict these unwanted spiritual tenants. Jesus Christ wants the Holy Spirit, the Comforter to reside within us, but we are too comfortable frolicking with the residents that he wants to dri...
