Agents of Change

By

Good morning

Scripture reading: 2 Corinthians 5:17-21 

Hymn: I Need Thee

 


Meditation:

    Pondering that provocative question about our eternal destiny caused me to think deeply about my own life's purpose and soul, as well as a deep concern for yours. As we go about our daily lives, we must be mindful of how we spend our time here on earth, fully aware that one day we will face divine judgment. We will be accountable for how we utilize the time given to us. We possess the freedom to choose, and our actions shape our future. 

    Knowing that the unrighteous and the ungodly will not inherit the Kingdom of God should strongly prompt us to examine our conscience and change our lifestyle so we are not left out of God's Kingdom. Change is inevitable; therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature. The old has passed, and the new has come. If we desire to spend eternity with Jesus Christ and dwell in His presence, we must be born again by accepting Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. 

    We must acknowledge and confess our sins, modify our behavior, and align our ways with God's will and commandments. To be an agent of change means our lifestyle is different, our minds are renewed, and we no longer conform to worldly patterns.

Let us pray:

    Everlasting Father, I seek You in a dry and thirsty land. I will pursue You tirelessly until my soul is satisfied. There is no place I would rather be, O Lord, than to be safely secured under the wings of my Savior. Hold me, Mighty God, in Your loving hands, and do not let me wander away from You. Draw me nearer and keep me as the apple of Your eye, for I am committed to following the path that leads to eternal life. In this moment of reflection, examine my heart, O God; search my deepest thoughts, Lord, and reveal where my true devotions lie. 

    I surrender all my weaknesses to You, Lord, and fully yield myself to Your will. Change what must be changed in me, uproot what needs to be uprooted, bind what must be bound, and loose what must be loosed. Purify me, mighty God, of anything that hinders me from living a life that is acceptable in Your sight. Rescue the souls of my loved ones, family, and friends from the path of destruction, and guard our hearts. As we surrender to You, mighty God, deliver us from the eternal impending judgment and rescue us from the state of endless woes. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Redeemer. Amen.

Wishing you a joyful day. 🙏🙏🙏

Living for Jehovah God

Good morning Scripture reading: Psalm 63:1 Praise song: Live My Life   Meditation:      Some individuals dedicate their entire lives to fulfilling others' expectations while neglecting their own well-being. The pursuit of love, peace, acceptance, and joy is not found in material possessions, external circumstances, or other individuals; it is found in Jesus Christ. Nothing surpasses His everlasting, unconditional love. When one adheres to God's ways, their life transforms to reflect His character. The old has passed away, and all things have become new. Inner peace and profound contentment are experienced when cultivating a relationship with Jesus Christ.       Concerns about status or setbacks diminish because one knows whose they belong. Our commitment should mirror that of Joshua, vowing that regardless of the paths chosen by others, my family and I have made our permanent decision to walk with the Lord. Dedicating and making a commit...

Spiritually Unclad

Good morning Scripture reading: Colossians 3:12-17 Worship song: Clothed in Righteousness   Meditation:      While we are dressed appropriately for physical occasions, it is essential to analyze our spiritual attire and recognize that we might be wearing the wrong attire spiritually. Let us confidently examine our spiritual garments and scrutinize the robe we are wearing. If you have allowed compromise to tarnish your life, such as a sinful habit, it is time for a divine wardrobe change. If you realize you are wearing garments of fear, doubt, hatred, bitterness, self-righteousness, self-reliance, pride, or unforgiveness, now is the time to intentionally change those filthy garments.       Divine sacred attire influences your presence, speech, actions, and movement. God desires to cloak us with blessings, humility, praise, righteousness, compassion, power, and light, but we must first put on Christ, walk in obedience, align our will with ...

When Faith is Exemplified

Good morning Scripture reading: Proverbs 3:5-6 Worship song: Trust In God   Meditation:      We often trust in pilots and drivers we know little or nothing about, believing in their ability to navigate the vehicle. We entrust strangers to lead us through storms of the air, land, and sea, yet hesitate to place our confidence in the Creator who commands the wind and the storm. We trust ship navigators, assuming they are experienced and capable of guiding us safely. Yet we fail to trust Almighty God, who controls everything. We must acknowledge that the Almighty Creator, who fashioned the heavens and the earth through His supreme power, guarantees that no challenge exceeds His capability.       If we can trust those with limited capability, surely, we can put our faith and trust in the God who forms us in our mother's womb. Surely, we can trust the Lord our God, who rules the nations and fights our enemies on our behalf. The God we follow r...

The Greatest Human Sacrifice

By

Good morning Scripture reading: Hebrews 9:19-28 Worship song: I Give You My Heart   Meditation:      What are you willing to sacrifice? We often hear that we should sacrificially give our best monetary offering. However, does providing our best offering guarantee us a place in God's kingdom? Is monetary sacrifice our sole and highest form of giving? We look forward to the opportunity to sow seeds and bless ministries; nonetheless, we must remember that, while giving, Jesus expects us to sow into the Kingdom of God by surrendering our lives to Him.       The most valuable offering we can present to God is our life as a living sacrifice. It is in our best interest to prioritize offering our lives and surrendering all to follow Jesus Christ. While giving generously from what God has blessed us with is commendable, without a personal connection to God, our giving lacks true heart and purpose. Only by committing our lives to God and accepting...
