The Perfect Resume

By

Good morning

Scripture reading: Colossians 3:23-24

Worship song: My Help

 


Meditation:

    In the competitive job market, we focus on creating an impressive resume to showcase our achievements that will qualify us as the ideal candidate. Unlike an earthly boss, who is impressed by achievements and skills, God values inner character and a repentant heart. Our professional skills and accomplishments, while important to employers, are insignificant to God, who already knows our every strength, weakness, and imperfection. Our genuine worth to God is rooted not in self-promotion but in our commitment and faith in Jesus Christ. 

    This clear distinction shows that human validation does not relate to divine approval. Consider the testimony of the Apostle Paul, in Philippians 3:7-9, who viewed his worldly achievements as insignificant after his true encounter with Christ. King Solomon, in Ecclesiastes 1, describes the profound emptiness, futility, and spiritual frustration that come from pursuing earthly gains. Ultimately, the life that matters to Jesus is a spiritual resume built on love, humility, and service, which is the legacy we should strive for before our Heavenly Father.

Let us pray:

    Almighty God, worthy are you Lord, and worthy to be praised. I glorify you for you are matchless in power. We acknowledge, dear Lord, that our worth is not in presenting ourselves as perfect before you, but in commitment, total surrender, and faith in Jesus Christ. I pray, O God that in our quest to gain worldly recognition, we will first divert our focus to seeking your Kingdom and righteousness with the assurance that you will provide all our needs. Remind us, O God, that worldly achievements are temporary, but our relationship with you is eternal. Help us, O God, to be committed in both our worldly work and our spiritual devotion in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Wishing you a fantastic day. 💕🙏🙏

    Blessed morning. God is faithful. Live out thy life within me O Jesus king of kings. Heavenly Father, I want to live in a way that honors you and brings glory to your name. Guide me in building a good name, not for my own glory, but to reflect your love and grace to those around me. May my words and actions align with your will, and may my character be a testament to your goodness. Amen. Stay blessed. 🙌

    The perfect Resume. You are always able to use different things to bring out a point so clear and understanding. Each time I read your writing I recognize your unique talent and abilities God have given to you. You humility disguise your profound abilities and this is a Kool way to allow God to continue using you to have an impact without making any noise about it. Keep low so you can rise high. Continue, continue. God is getting His work done through you and with you. God bless you richly and always. 🙏🙏

Somebody Prayed

Good morning Scripture reading: St. Matthew 6:9-13 Worship song: Somebody Pray for Me   Meditation:      Prayer is an essential tool in the lives of every believer, which is a form of direct communication with our Heavenly Father. Through prayer, we seek divine help for seen and unforeseen troubles by appealing to God for guidance, protection, and strength. When we pray, we acknowledge our dependence on God and trust Him to change the situation we commit to Him. We are assured in Psalms 102:17 that God will regard the prayer of the destitute and not despise their prayer.      The prayers of those living righteously are heard and powerful and effective enough to bring about significant results. The word of God promises us in Matthew 21 that whatsoever we ask in prayer, believing, we shall receive. According to the scriptures, Hannah and Elizabeth prayed fervently to God about their barrenness. After many years of ceaseless prayer, God rem...

Why Don't You Try Jesus?

Good morning Scripture reading: 1 John 4:4-6 Worship song: Praise His Name   Meditation:      The social environment significantly influenced our development and how we deal with adversity. Whatever we are exposed to and whoever influences us can positively or negatively impact us. Our coping mechanism depends on our personal habits and the impact of the people we surround ourselves with. God does not govern our choices. He has given us the power to choose.       We must recognize when our decisions are harmful and have the wisdom to choose a different path. Redirection provides the essential and ultimate change for individuals who have been led astray and have pursued a destructive path. The adversary's plan is to keep us bound and distracted by worldly influences, but Jesus provides a pathway to liberation for all who call on his name. If you are uncomfortable and your choice is a burden, come and lay it all down, and Jesus will give y...

The Scapegoat Ritual

By

Good morning Scripture reading: Leviticus 16 Worship song: By His wounds   Meditation:      A scapegoat is a goat used in a biblical ritual, described in Leviticus, to achieve atonement and purification for the Israelites. On the Day of Atonement, the people's sins were symbolically transferred to the goat, which was then sent into the wilderness to carry their transgressions away. The ritual that was practice before Christ's sacrificial offering was the priest would lay both his hands upon the head of a live goat and confess over it all the iniquities and transgressions of the sins of the children of Israel, putting them upon the head of the goat, and then send it away by the hand of a competent man into the wilderness and release it in the wild.       Today, we are humbly invited into the presence of God's grace to confess our sins before our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. He was led like a lamb to the slaughter, and it was for our tra...

Move Mountain

Good morning Scripture reading: St. Matthew 17:14-21 Worship song: Who Are You Great Mountain   Meditation:      The emotional story relating to a desperate father's concern for his son's well-being is a reminder that faith is not about evidence; it is believing and hoping for a favorable outcome despite uncertainty. Jesus demonstrated that faith is sustained by hope, not evidence. At Jesus' command, the tormenting spirit immediately departed, bringing an end to the boy's emotional suffering. The comforting message of Jesus reveals the power through faith to overcome obstacles that seem impossible. Jesus used a mountain as a metaphor to illustrate the insurmountable challenges we encounter.       With a faith anchored in God's power, like a tiny mustard seed, we can overcome the mountain-sized obstacles that disrupt our spiritual, physical, or emotional state. The lesson is not about the size of our faith, but that our victory depends on...
