Scripture Reading: Numbers 14:1-4

Worship Song: Remind Me Dear Lord

 


Meditation:

    The Israelites cried out for God to deliver them from their taskmaster, yet once rescued, they longed to return, believing their present struggles were worse than their past experience. When we face hardship, instead of giving God thanks, we resort to comparing our challenges to our previous experiences in Egypt. 

    Like the Israelites, we find ourselves murmuring and complaining instead of showing gratitude. What is it that you are holding on to that is preventing you from reaching the promised land? The life you once had cannot be compared to the blessings the Lord has in store for you. Sometimes, we just need a reminder of God's faithfulness and the dangerous path he rescued us from. If the Lord has liberated you from the bondage of sin and the deception of this world, don't look back. 

    Being emancipated from the dominant power, the deception of this world, and the cohort of darkness is more beneficial to us than anything this world affords to give. Do not look back nor wonder in the wilderness; hasten to the promised land where mercy, grace, and the limitless love of God await you.

Let's pray:

    Everlasting Father, I lift my eyes to you, O God, and wholeheartedly thank you for rescuing us from a life of sin. I am grateful to you, Lord God, for delivering us from our taskmasters. Faithful promise-keeping God, thank you for redeeming us from Satan's bondage and granting us access to the throne of grace. Whenever we feel tempted to look back or complain, open our eyes and reveal to us the treasures in the promised land you have stored for us. Lord, whenever we are tempted to withdraw from your presence, take us back to the place where we first believed and received you. Almighty God, though we cannot see what the future holds, we will walk confidently in faith, trusting you to guide our steps. We ask for your forgiveness for our ignorance and lack of gratitude in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen. (Child of the King).

Have a peaceful day. ✌💕🙏

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

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...
