The Will of God

By

Good morning

 Scripture reading: 1 Thessalonians 5:18

Worship song: Gratitude

 


Meditation:

    The divine command by God is to give thanks not just for some things but for all things. We are called to express gratitude not just for abundant blessings but also for the hardships and challenges that shape us. The word of God asserts that in everything we must give thanks, for this is His will for us. Understanding God’s will empower us to appreciate and express gratitude no matter the trials we encounter. 

    Living with a grateful heart signifies our faith in God's goodness and sovereignty even amidst difficulties. Each act of gratitude reflects our appreciation for God's unwavering provision, mercy, grace, and sovereignty. We must find ways to express gratitude for even the smallest blessings and avoid murmuring and complaining. 

    In Romans 8:28, we are assured that all things, good and bad, work together for good for those who love God and are called according to his purpose. Therefore, whether we encounter challenges or enjoy abundant blessings, regardless of the circumstance, let gratitude be our constant practice. Remember, it is God’s will that we give thanks in everything.

Let us pray:

    Dear Heavenly Father, we come to you today with hearts full of gratitude. Thank you for touching our lives with your word. We come in agreement with the psalmist in Psalm 119:105 that your word is a lamp unto our feet and a light unto our path. Father, we are committed to living in alignment with your will as you have commanded us. Father, we recognize that expressing gratitude in times of grief and pain can be challenging, but we are solely dependent on you, Lord. We seek your divine intervention to navigate these moments. Remove the veil from our eyes so we can see clearly and trust that all things will indeed work together for our good. Help us, O God, to express gratitude and appreciation for not only the abundant blessings but even the small, seemingly insignificant ones, all in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen. 

Have a blessed day. 💕🙏

Your Divine Purpose

Good morning Day of prayer   Not everyone that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Matthew 7:21   Worship song: Not My Will   Let Us Pray:      Sovereign God, clothed in splendor and majesty, I honor, worship, and adore you, O Lord, as my Father and King. Almighty God, I seek your divine intervention as I acknowledge that I have failed to hearken to your will daily. Almighty God, I humbly beseech you to restrain our self-will, aligning our lives with Your divine purpose. Free us, O God, from self-will, and let your will reside in us; let your will be done on earth as it is done in heaven, mighty God. Lord, we seek not to be conformed to this world, but to discern your will and what is good, acceptable, and well-pleasing in your sight.       Lord God, take command over every unfamiliar spirit and every spirit that is not authorized by ...

Not From Human

Good morning Scripture reading: Galatians 1 Worship song: Show Me Your Ways   Meditation:      Paul, in his writing, makes it clear that his preaching, ministry, and teaching were not ordained by man; they did not originate with man nor come through man. He was anointed and appointed by Jesus Christ as an apostle to preach the gospel; therefore, he could boast that he did not please men. He experienced a profound transformation, shifting from a brutal persecutor of Christians to an ardent minister of the Gospel. His conversion from ancestral beliefs to Christianity was a divine intervention that led him to preach the very gospel he once opposed.       Apostle Paul did not learn about Christ from any other apostle or institution; instead, he received his understanding of the gospel directly through a divine revelation from Jesus Christ. His knowledge was not derived from other apostles or human teachings, but from a direct, personal encou...

How Deep Are Your Roots

Good morning Scripture reading: St. Matthew 13:3-9 Worship song: Rooted and Grounded   Meditation:      In the parable of the Sower, Jesus gave four different scenarios: the seed that fell on the wayside, the seed that fell on stony ground, the seed that fell among thorns, and the seed that fell on good ground. This parable represents the Sower, the seed, and the soil. The Sower is the person proclaiming the word, the seed represents the word of God, and the soil represents the heart of those who hear the word of God. The seed that fell on the good ground represents the believers who hear the word, accept it, and bring forth fruit. The believers who are firmly anchored in Christ are like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither; whatever they do will prosper. Your acceptance of God's word is determined by the condition of your heart.       Those who are not firmly rooted endure,...

The Spirit of Fear

Good morning Scripture reading: Philippians 4:6-7 Worship song: Fear is a Liar   Meditation:      Every day, we confront fear, and if we let it overwhelm us, it can rob us of our joy and peace. Fear is defined as the emotional response to an imminent or perceived threat of danger, pain, or evil, frequently resulting in feelings of worry and discomfort. This fear, which causes people to doubt God's power and faithfulness, is not from God but is considered a human limitation. God did not give us a spirit of fear but of power, love, and self-control. Fear will keep us from fulfilling our responsibilities and prevent us from doing the will of God.       The word of God reminds us in Isaiah 41:10 to fear not and be not dismayed, for God is with us; he will strengthen, help, and uphold us with his righteous right hand. There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. Fearing man is a dangerous trap, but when you fear the Lord, you ar...
