Somebody Prayed

By

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 remembered them, and they conceived. Some of us are still here today because of the ceaseless prayer of the righteous and the faithfulness of God. 

    All the times we were running wild, when we were lost, and when we were broken, somebody was praying. You might not know how you made it through your struggles; it certainly was not due to your own strength, but because someone was praying for you.

Let us pray:

    Merciful Savior, let my prayer be counted as I lift my hands before you in complete surrender. I am thankful for the righteous who fervently seek your divine intervention through prayer for the broken, lost, and wandering child. We are grateful to those who bow at the altar to mention us in their prayer. Father, continue to bless the person who never ceased to intercede for our well-being and transformation. We express gratitude that mercy has found us and we are living proof of grace. Lord, we thank you for the privilege granted us to seek and connect with you through prayer. We thank you, Lord God, for your promise to answer the prayers of the destitute. We are grateful to you, Lord God, for every prayer you have answered and for your gentle guidance and unending protection. We praise you for the comfort of your unconditional love, tender mercies, and the overflowing grace we receive through Jesus Christ. Amen.

Wishing you a day filled with blessings. 👏💞🙏

    Prayer is not something we do when we feel like, it is something we do all the time, not because what we pray for does not happen immediately, we should continue under all circumstances. The prayers of a righteous man availeth much. Keep praying. 🙏🙏

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

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...
