Spiritual Residues

By

Good morning

Scripture reading: Ezekiel 36:25-27

Worship sing: Empty me, Lord

 


Meditation:

    Imagine a wastebasket filled yet you willfully continue to cram trash into it resulting in waste spilling onto the floor. This pattern demonstrates a heart filled with spiritual baggage that leaves no room for divine contentment, peace, growth, or new insight. Carrying the weight of past sins and unresolved guilt creates a roadblock, suffocating our inner growth. When the vessel is too full of life's daily mess, the spill pollutes our relationships as it diverts us from our divine purpose. 

    Let the spiritual residue be a positive, transformative imprint left behind when you spend dedicated time in communion with God. They that looked at you, must do so in amazement, beholding the reflection of Jesus Christ in your life. (Acts 4:13 Let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God (2 Corinthians 7:1). Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, declares the Lord, and you shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you. (Ezekiel 36:25)

Let us pray:

    Heavenly Father, we come in agreement with the prophet Malachi that You are like a refiner's fire and a fuller's soap, cleansing the vilest of sinners who genuinely repent of their iniquities. Lord, we praise You for Your power to cleanse us and for the grace You freely give to pardon our transgressions. Lord, we acknowledge our transgressions and the sins we have committed against You. Forgive us, Almighty God, from all categories of wrongdoings known and unknown. Forgive us, Lord, for rebelling against You, serving baal gods, and disobeying Your commands. We ask, O God, for your divine mercy. Purify and cleanse our hearts from all sins that easily besets us. Wash us thoroughly from all iniquities, and renew a right spirit within us through Your divine power. In the precious name of Jesus. Amen. 

Wishing you a joyful day. 👏💕🙏

The Enemy Was Crushed

Good morning Scripture reading: Exodus 14:21-30 Worship song: Let Your Power Fall   Meditation:      The most stubborn and hardened heart can shatter under the crushing weight of profound tragedy. God gave Moses specific instructions to speak to Pharaoh and demand the release of the children of Israel, but Pharaoh stubbornly refused. The tragic loss of Pharaoh's firstborn son broke his stubbornness, compelling him to end the enslavement of the children of Israel. Nonetheless, his immediate remorse prompted him to deploy his army to pursue them.       Upon realizing their enemies were in pursuit, the Israelites panicked and rebelled against Moses. Still, God saved them from their enemies for His name's sake so that they could witness His mighty miraculous power. Obeying God's command Moses rebuked the Red Sea and it dried up. He then led the Israelites through the depths, as through the wilderness to safety and the water returned to its p...

Hidden in the Sand

Good morning Scripture reading: Exodus 2:11-15 Worship song: Jesus Forgive Me   Meditation:      It is human instinct to protect loved ones and defend them from harm in every way possible. On most occasions, people are driven by a spontaneous inclination to act, especially intervening to defend someone from injustice. This was the case with Moses, whose impulsive action led him to act on instinct without considering the consequences of his decision. Moses's attempt to conceal his action reflects the human tendency to conceal wrongdoing and sin. However, we cannot hide from God, because there is nothing covered that shall not be revealed, nor hidden that shall not be known (Luke 12:2).       David affirms God's omnipresent and omniscient power in Psalm 139. The eyes of the Lord are in every place, keeping watch over good and evil (Proverbs 15:3). He that hides his sins shall not prosper, but whoever chooses to confess and forsake sin will...

Travelling First Class

By

Good morning Scripture reading: St. John 14:1-6 Worship song: One Way Flight   Meditation:      Traveling first-class offers a uniquely luxurious experience, characterized by supreme comfort and tranquility that stands apart from standard travel. These flights offer a premium level of service and comfort that the average traveler typically does not experience. We are all required to choose one of the two available first-class flights.       There is one first-class flight destined for Paradise, for the born-again, faith-believing, sanctified, and redeemed who accept and acknowledge Jesus Christ as Lord. And there is also a first-class flight destined for destruction, a broad road, for those who have rejected Christ, refused to obey his commands, and are living a reckless, wanton life bound by sin.       These are the only available options, and they are mandatory flights that we must embark on, one for sinners and one...

Through It All

Good morning Scripture reading: Psalm 3 Worship song: Through It All   Meditation:      The psalmist, David, faced many challenges and enemies. During his reign, he encountered numerous adversaries, including King Saul, whom he had helped defeat the Philistine giants who opposed Israel. David was not afraid of the host that encamped against him, because he firmly trusted in the God he served. In spite of the numerous trials that hampered his journey, his unwavering faith in God enabled him to persevere through every tribulation and emerge victorious over his adversaries. Through it all, David trusted God and built a relationship with Him.       Through it all, David relied on God, built a close relationship with Him, and learned to depend solely on His guidance. David's sole desire was to dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of his life. He trusted God and believed that He would shield him from all his enemies. By fully entrusting...
