Walking in God's will

By

Good morning

Scripture reading: 1 Peter 5:1-4

Praise song: Spirit Lead Me



 

Meditation:

    Arthur Blessitt, a travelling evangelist born in Mississippi, is well known as the preacher who carried a cross through every nation of the world. Through many dangers, toils, and snares, the grace of God kept him. Through difficult times and the hottest battlefield, he held on to faith and trusted God to lead him safely. He went on the mission, determined to spread the gospel, leading souls to Calvary. He walked through lonely deserts, across hills and valleys, teaching the will of God as he bore the weight of the heavy wooden cross. 

    Listening to this inspiring account provides a true reflection of what it means to genuinely follow and obey the Lord's command, to accept his will, and to trust Him wholeheartedly. It offers a clearer understanding of the essence of trusting God and walking by faith. Blessitt obeyed the call to witness to the lost. His choice of reaching souls to deliver the message of salvation may appear strange and unusual. Still, the most significant lesson is that many lives were touched by his dedication and commitment to doing the work of an evangelist. As he carried the wooden structure across nations, many lives were touched, and people came to surrender to God. Maybe God is speaking to you today, but you have not yet obeyed his voice. Is he calling you to be an ambassador for him, but you are basking in your comfort zone, too busy to avail yourself? Will you trust his plan today and listen to his voice? God will not lead you where his grace cannot keep you.

Let us pray:

    Father, I am amazed by your power and faithfulness as I listen to the testimony of a man who trusted you with his whole heart and life. Almighty God, I realize that I need to trust you more. Lord, I may have failed you many times, but I pray, O God, that you will teach me your ways and guide me in your truth so I can walk with you gracefully, for you are the God of my salvation. Spirit of the living God, teach me to recognize your still small voice, strengthen my faith, and lead me where my trust in you has no border. Remove far from me the spirit of distraction, O God, so I can listen attentively and heed your will. Almighty God, I pray that the counsel of the Lord God will prevail against any evil devices in my heart so I can willingly obey your voice in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Amen. 

Wishing you a blessed and peaceful day. ✌💖🙏

Do You Have Enough Fuel?

Good Morning Scripture reading: Matthew 25: 1-13 Mediation song: Give Me Oil in My Lamp   Meditation:      Have you ever experienced the frustration of your vehicle running out of fuel, leaving you stranded on the roadway? Has a power outage ever interrupted a crucial moment, only for you to discover the generator is also out of fuel? Anyone who experiences low resources understands what it means to be in a state of unpreparedness.       The bridesmaids waited to meet the bridegroom, but he was delayed longer than they anticipated. When the bridegroom arrived at midnight, the ten virgins woke to prepare their lamps, but the foolish five discovered they lacked enough oil for the long wait and missed the opportunity to go with the bridegroom. The five wise virgins rejoice because they have sufficient oil. The oil in our lamp represents the presence of the Holy Spirit within us, and we are the lamp in which the Holy Spirit dwells. The wise vi...

Preparing for a Race

Good morning Scripture reading: Hebrews 12:1-3 Worship song: I Will Run to You   Meditation:      Winning a world championship is considered one of the highest achievements in athletics. Every athlete who competes in a race desire to win a gold medal and also to become the world's fastest champion. Athletes competing against equally motivated and determined runners must push themselves beyond their normal limit to obtain victory. To have a fair chance of winning the race requires determination, commitment, vigorous training, sacrifices, endurance, patience, and discipline. As children of God, we are running in a noncompetitive race, and the challenge is to pursue what God wants for us rather than what we want for ourselves. We have the responsibility to press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly reward.       Like the Apostle Paul, we should be able to declare we have fought a good fight, we have finished the race, an...

You Shall Be Free Indeed

Good morning Scripture reading: St. John 8:31-36 Worship song: I'm Free   Meditation:      Isaiah, the messianic prophet, prophesied that the spirit of the Lord would be upon him who would be anointed to preach to the meek, proclaim freedom to the captives, and liberate those who are bound in prisons. Jesus declared the prophecy of Isaiah fulfilled immediately after reading the scripture recorded in Isaiah 61 to the Nazarenes (as recounted in Luke 4:18-21 of the Bible). In doing so, he revealed himself as the promised Messiah, the one designated to deliver and rescue his people from spiritual bondage and the oppression of sin.       Jesus came as the perfect, sinless Son of God to save humanity from the power of evil and bring us back to God. He took on a human body without any sin or flaw, like a pure and spotless sacrifice, to rescue us from being trapped by Satan. Through Jesus Christ, all sinners are granted the same privil...
