Good morning

Scripture reading: Colossians 2:1-8

Worship song: Lead Me O Lead Me

 



Meditation:

    Apostle Paul was deeply concerned about the spiritual well-being of all believers. He was aware that traditional human practices and rituals seemed spiritual but were not rooted in Christ's teachings. Paul's concern extended specifically to the believers in the Colossian church and Laodicea, as well as others he had never personally encountered, who were being influenced and misled by false teachers. 

    As a teacher of the gospel of Christ, Paul's relentless efforts were dedicated to guiding believers, and helping them understand God's truth, urging them to build their faith in Christ so they would not be misled by human rules, experiences, or false teachings. Paul's protection of believers is a demonstration that true spiritual stewardship requires leaders to extend the same genuine care to others' souls as they do their own, especially of the believers in their care. The Essential teachings of Paul warn us to be aware of those with enticing words, lest we be led away from Christ. He also encouraged believers to establish a relationship with Christ as the ultimate foundation of their existence, ensuring endurance and stability when challenges arise.

Let us pray:

    Heavenly Father, I am profoundly grateful for your divine direction and wisdom. We thank you wholeheartedly for your inspired word, which is profitable to reprimand, correct, and instruct us in righteousness. We seek your help, Lord, to know the divine mystery of God, which is fully revealed through Christ Jesus. Grant us the spirit of discernment to recognize false teachings and traditions of men that are not aligned with your precepts.  Father, ignite in us a deep hunger for Your Word, to ponder it constantly, day and night. Grant us spiritual discernment to truly grasp its truths and the grace to live them out fully in our daily lives. Empower us, O God, with the spirit of compassion, love, and kindness towards others. Help us do good at all times especially unto those who are of the household of faith. May we, Lord God, begin to care for others' souls and spiritual growth as deeply as we care for our own through the divine help of the Holy Spirit in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Wishing you a peaceful day ✌💕🙏

God Favored Me

Good morning Day of Testimony- God Favored Me I  will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee. Psalms 22:22 Worship song: I Will Say of The Lord   My Testimony:      Although I accepted Jesus Christ in my teenage years, I did not know what it meant to genuinely serve Him. I broke my covenant with Christ, but after several years of wandering through the wilderness, I came to realize that my life is meaningless without Him. Now I am walking in newness of life with Christ as my anchor and my rock. I draw strength from the divine assurance that I am never alone, even amidst the toughest struggles.       When I remember the price Christ paid for my redemption, and when I remember that the broad road leads to destruction, I must fight the good fight of faith, hold firm to God's promise of eternal life, whereunto I am called, and have publicly professed before many witnesses. Looking back, m...

Icing on the Cake

Good morning Scripture reading: 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 Praise song: Your Grace and Mercy   Meditation:      When a cake is covered with frosting, all you can see is the sculptor's intricate design, incorporating precise shapes and patterns to achieve an appealing finish. Cakes that are broken are not discarded but covered so you cannot see the imperfections that lie beneath the attractive decorations of their beautiful frosting. This is what grace does to our brokenness. The grace of God is a redeeming act of love that covers our brokenness like icing on a cake, transforming it into His radiant beauty until we are completely whole. God's grace is sufficient to forgive and cleanse all sins, offering a path to redemption and a new beginning.       No matter the condition of our heart, the grace of God who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Jesus Christ will strengthen, establish, and make you perfect. The grace of God is sufficie...

At The Checkpoint

Good morning Scripture reading: 1 Cor. 11:28-31 Worship song:  I Give You My Heart   Meditation:      During 2020, several military checkpoints were established in different areas under enhanced security measures to intercept the free movement of criminals. The things exposed during scrutiny at a checkpoint are quite alarming. A checkpoint is a barrier or manned entrance, typically at a border, where travelers are subject to security checks. It is also a place where vehicles are examined.       Jesus Christ has established a checkpoint, and daily we are scrutinized by our Lord Jesus Christ. All our deeds, thoughts, and actions are recorded, whether they are good or evil. It is our personal responsibility to ensure our lives align with the divine requirements of our Lord. This requires examining our hearts, minds, lifestyles, and spiritual connections to ensure they align with God's will. We must confess our sins and repent daily to ...

Good morning - Day of prayer Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the mountain of his holiness. Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is Mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King. Psalms 48:1-2   Worship song: How Great Is Our God Let us Pray:      Merciful, Wonderful Savior, great are you, Lord, and greatly to be praised. There is none as great as you, Lord. I will lift my voice in gratitude, O God, and praise you for your goodness; you are gracious, full of compassion, slow to anger, and abounding in mercy. I will sing of your unsearchable greatness, which far exceeds our wildest imagination. You speak into the darkness, and light appears.

Lord, you are undeniably the God of Impossibilities; you command the elements an...
