Sanctified for God's Holy Purpose

By

Good morning

Scripture reading: Romans 12:1-2

Hymn: Draw Me Nearer

 




Meditation:

    God's call for Moses and the Israelites to prepare for His presence on Mount Sinai involved washing and consecrating themselves, a command for spiritual purity and separation that was also repeated for Joshua's generation. This highlights the need for spiritual and physical holiness to encounter God's awesome power. The direct command to be consecrated and purified focused on setting ourselves apart for holy purposes, which involves avoiding sin, choosing righteousness, and cleansing ourselves from all defilement that hinders our relationship with God. 

    We are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, and a peculiar people. Being God's representatives on earth, God requires us to be consecrated in holiness for He is Holy. Paul the Apostle, beseech us to present our bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, and be not conformed to worldly standards and influences. Let us heed God's will and dedicate ourselves to living a righteous life, set apart for His glory.

Let us pray:

    Almighty God, I surrender my whole life, my daily activities, and my well-being to your will and sovereignty. I am dedicating my home, relationships, family, and friends to you, Lord. Consecrate and purify our bodies, O God, so that your Holy Spirit can dwell within us. We beseech you, Almighty God, to sanctify our lips, our hearts, and our minds. Purge us with hyssop and cleanse us from all ungodliness. Create within us a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within us. Set us apart for your holy purpose. Grant us the strength to resist worldly standards so that we may live a life that portrays your divine purpose and holiness. Almighty God, we pray for daily spiritual cleansing and the guidance to realign our lives with your will in the matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Redeemer. Amen. 

Wishing you a peaceful day. ✌💞🙏

Deep Sorrow

Good Morning Day of prayer - Deep Sorrow   For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. Jeremiah 29:11   Hymn: Lord From Sorrows Deep I Call             Let us pray:      Heavenly Father, we humbly submit ourselves to your sovereignty, seeking your divine intervention, O God, to change our mindset and remove the spiritual blindness hindering us from seeing clearly your plan to prosper us. Almighty God, conquer the spirit of fear for humanity that clouds our judgment, and replace it with reverence for you only. Everlasting Father, we surrender our brokenness, our shattered hearts, our failures, our past, present, and future at your altar of sacrifice. We need your divine help to overcome challenges and obstacles, and the strength to remain fervent and faithful in doing what is righteous, acceptable, and honorable. Help us, O God,...

Working His Purpose Out

Good morning Scripture Reading: Romans 8:26-31 Worship Song: God Will Work It Out   Meditation:      It is a misconception that accepting Jesus removes all life's problems; the reality is that faith brings inner peace and spiritual growth, not an easy, trouble-free life. In this world, we will be tested by the enemy, and we will have tribulation, but we must remain courageous and be of good cheer for he who dwells within us has overcome the world. God did not promise we would not encounter hardship. He did not promise we would have a perfect life here on earth. What he promises is his peace and that he will never leave nor forsake us. Consider Job, a man of integrity, seen by God as perfect and upright, a man who eschewed evil, yet faced unimaginable trials as detailed in the book of Job.       Every situation we encounter, whether it is sickness, tribulations, financial struggles, relationship issues, or spiritual battles, will ultimate...

Subdue Wandering Thoughts

Good morning Scripture reading: Philippians 4:8 Worship song: Still My Mind   Meditation:      Have you ever felt like you are drowning, sinking in your own thoughts of overthinking? The mind is the powerhouse of your thoughts, the place of conflict where uncontrolled thoughts create a gateway for negative thoughts to germinate and flourish. Most of the things that manifest in our minds are a figment of our imagination. Without control, the mind turns into a battlefield where thoughts generate anxiety, fear, and worry from false scenarios.       We are encouraged by Apostle Paul to intentionally focus on and fill our minds with things that are pure, lovely, admirable, and of good report, rather than letting our thoughts wander to discouraging or toxic things. We must shift our attention away from unproductive, anxious thoughts to focus on excellent things by aligning them with God's truth. To keep our hearts with all diligence requires s...

Something to Appreciate

Good morning Day of Testimony - Something to Appreciate In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. 1 Thessalonians 5:18 Worship song: Gratitude   Personal Testimony:      Maintaining a grateful heart through all life's challenges alters our perspective and deepens our appreciation. I cannot fully comprehend the move of God, but I know He is working things out for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. I looked back with great appreciation on a situation that transpired during the 3rd week of January. Though what happened might seem insignificant, I find immense reason to give God glory, honor, and praise. The AC unit broke two days before the cold front, trapping heat inside our home. Fortunately, the incoming cold weather was exactly what was needed, making air conditioning and fans unnecessary during that period. Just as the cold front breaks, the HVAC Technicians fix the unit,...
