Second Chance

By

Good morning

Scripture reading: Micah 7:18-20

Worship song: God of a Second Chance

 


Meditation:

    Throughout the scriptures, second chances were extended to many, including the Israelites, Apostle Paul, the Ninevites, King David, and the prodigal son. The Israelites' repeated unfaithfulness never exhausted God's unending compassion. God's inexhaustible patience and boundless mercy were extended to the Israelites despite their frequent acts of disobedience. The parable of the prodigal son offers a profound narrative that illustrates God's unconditional love and readiness to restore those who have strayed and desire to return to Him. 

    God demonstrated the depth of his love for us by having Christ die on our behalf at a time when we were still in rebellion against him so that we might be saved from the coming judgment. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Lamentations 3 teaches us that God's steadfast love is unfailing, and His mercy and compassion are renewed each day, demonstrating His great and enduring faithfulness. Second chances emphasize God's continual mercy and patience, the ultimate chance given through Jesus Christ.

 

Let us pray:

    Most righteous eternal Father, we express our sincere heartfelt gratitude to you, O God, for extending grace, unconditional love, compassion, and boundless mercy to us despite our acts of disobedience. It is a wonderful feeling to know that through the shedding of your efficacious blood, we are saved. We thank you, O God, that you have saved us and, with your mercy, forgave us. We thank you, Lord God, for showing us mercy when we deserve your wrath. God, your grace is enough for it is made perfect in our weakness. Lord, we surrender every act of rebelliousness and disobedience to embrace your grace which gives us freedom. We surrender the things we cling to and commit to serving you, Lord God in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen. 

 Wishing you a fantastic day. 💕👏🙏

    We serve a God of second chance. No matter how far we sink or how bad we mess up, God's aim is to make us whole, new, clean so He can perfect us for His glory. Let us seek Him daily, draw nigh to Him so we can be more like Him. 🙏

Not Satisfied with The Husk

Good morning Scripture reading: St. Luke 15:11-32 Worship Song: Satisfied   Meditation:      The prodigal son, driven and blinded by his desire for freedom, ultimately faced the harsh truth of his reality, living a life contrary to what he truly valued. Like many of us, he embarked on what he thought was a pursuit of the best life, yet he later discovered that a life lived without Jesus Christ is heavily laden with sin and emptiness. Too often, we find ourselves comfortable in our struggles, settling for the husk of our poor choices instead of embracing the divine grand cuisine that the Lord has prepared for us. How much longer will you remain unaware that the Almighty Father stands ready to welcome you home? God values you more than any career or material gain.       The life you crave, one of true purpose, is found with Christ. There is immense joy in heaven whenever someone decides to leave a life of sin behind. If you are weary of st...

Better Awaits You

Good morning Scripture reading: Revelation 21 Praise song: Jerusalem   Meditation:      This world is unpredictable and full of trials, sadness, and disappointment; nevertheless, we hold onto the divine promise of a restored life through our Lord. A time is coming when suffering will cease, and God will bring an end to all sorrow, sickness, and death. While we look forward to the future, our focus should be on serving God fully and living his way. This life is a journey, not our final destination. For those who place their trust and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, eternal life is assured. The dead in Christ shall rise first, and those who are alive when he shall return shall be caught up together in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air and be with him forever.       As we serve the Lord with gladness, and worship Him in spirit and truth, let us be prepared to meet Him. If you have not yet received Jesus Christ as your Saviour, do...

Abound in Knowledge

Good morning  Scripture reading: 2 Peter 1: 1–10 Worship song: Worthy Meditation:      In addition to staying pure from worldly corruption and being diligent, Peter's letters outline several specific attributes of good stewardship. He advised us to add these attributes to remain fruitful and fertile. The Apostle Peter describes a process for developing spiritual maturity. His guidelines instruct believers to purposefully adopt Christlike characteristics, behave in a righteous and godly manner, use their gifts to serve others, practice cheerful hospitality, and remain humble. We must actively use the resources God has given us to guide our actions and achieve our purpose. The more knowledge we have of God, the closer we get to Him, and the more we learn to apply the steps necessary for spiritual growth, of which the greatest attribute that we need to obtain is love. When we forsake all to follow Christ, the word of God empowers us, and the Holy Spirit equip...

The Throne of Grace

Good morning Scripture: Hebrews 4: 14-16 Praise song: Bow down and Worship   Meditation:      The high priest alone had the privilege of entering the innermost chamber of the temple once a year, where he offered a sacrifice to God on behalf of himself and the people to atone for their sins. The sacrifices were offered by the high priest, respectively, for himself, the other priests, and the people. The animals offered for the remission of sin had no spots, defects, or blemishes. The priest was given the task of carrying the burden, the heavy weight, and the iniquities of the people before the throne of grace.       This responsibility changed when Jesus Christ came and sacrificed himself for the atonement of our sins. Through Christ, the role of the priest as an intercessor has been abolished, and everyone now has direct unlimited access to God's grace. Therefore, let us accept this golden opportunity with gratitude, come boldly to the t...
