Can't be Canceled or Rescheduled

Image
Good morning Scripture reading: Hebrews 9: 27-28 Worship song: Death Was Arrested   Meditation:      An appointment is a formal date or plan to meet at a specified time. The type of appointment depends on the purpose of the meeting. Not all scheduled appointments are kept; some are canceled, while some are postponed, and this depends on the nature or urgency of the matter. Scheduling an appointment helps us to keep our commitments, but there are those persons who sometimes reschedule appointments for their convenience. Nevertheless, there is an appointment that all of us must keep, and it is with DEATH. We are all appointed once to die, but after death comes the judgment. There is no exception and no exemption. We cannot reschedule, cancel, or ignore it because we do not have dominion power over its existence.       Death is no respecter of persons; be prepared and ready, for there is no repentance and confession in the grave. Do not fear; we...

That Little Fox

Image
Good Morning Scripture reading: Song of Solomon 2:15 Worship song: Here's My Heart Lord   Meditation:      King Solomon warns us to catch the little foxes before they ruin the vines that have tender grapes. Little foxes are destructive to the vines because they attack the roots and stems, which are the lifeline of the plant. The little foxes are the sins that burrow into our lives that we refuse to shun. They are the works of the flesh that war against the fruit of the spirit. The little foxes are the seemingly insignificant things that we disregard, the deception and lies that we accept that appear harmless yet have the potential to wreak havoc on our spiritual lives.       When we constantly disregard these habitual sins, they lead to major sins, which will eventually ruin our character and spiritual growth. A little spark kindled a fire; likewise, little willful sin defiles the conscience, so beware of the little foxes lurking in your vin...

Walking in God's Will

Image
Good morning   Scripture reading: 1 Peter 5:1-4 Praise song: Ocean   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 intriguing life story gives a true reflection of what it means to truly follow and obey the Lord's command, to accept his will, and to trust Him wholeheartedly. It gives a clearer insight into what it truly means to trust God and walk by faith. Blessitt obeyed the call to witness to lost souls. His choice of reaching so...

Pledge Allegiance

Good morning Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God. 1 John 5:5 Worship song: Forever At Your Feet   Testimony:      The declaration was made that whosoever believes that Jesus is the Son of God will overcome the world. I am proud to be an overcomer of the world and a recipient of God's grace and mercies through the blood of Jesus Christ. I once walked the path where you are treading, loitering in dangerous places, thinking it satisfied me, but deep within, I was just a broken vessel in need of a savior. I was disobedient, stiff-necked, and carefree, doing that which I desired, but now I see things in a new light, all because Jesus stepped in and dispelled the darkness that engulfed me. He led me out of the wilderness where I was grappling with sin, conquered my soul, purified my heart, and made me whole. I was living, yet I was dead because I was lost without Jehovah God, heading down the wrong path, the path ...

Let Your Will Be Done - Prayer

Image
Good morning Not everyone that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Matthew 7:21 Worship song: Not My Will   Let Us Pray:      Sovereign God, clothed in splendour and majesty, I honour, worship, and adore you, O Lord, as my Father and King. Almighty God, I seek your divine intervention as I acknowledge that I have failed to hearken to your will daily. Almighty God, I beseech you to slay selfish desires and restrain self-willpower that seeks to dominate your will for my life and the lives of your children. Free us, O God, from self-will and let your will reside in us; let your will be done on earth as it is done in heaven, mighty God. Lord, we seek not to be conformed to this world, but to discern your will and what is good, acceptable, and well-pleasing in your sight. Lord God, take command over every unfamiliar spirit and every spirit that is not authorized by you tha...

Whose Team Are You On?

Image
Good morning.  S cripture: Galatians 3:23-29 Worship song: Give Me Jesus   Meditation:      A team can be referred to as a group of people working together to achieve a common goal. Once a team is established, whether in a work setting or the sporting arena, etc., all members are expected to play their role effectively. A netball team is a great example of a team working together to accomplish their goal. It is the responsibility of players to train viciously to ensure victory over the opposing team.       As Christians, we should also strive to accomplish our goals and defeat our opponents by focusing on our requirements. We should be alert, vigilant, and sober and never let down our guard because the adversary is the wing defense player. At no time should we give the opposing team access to defeat and conquer us.       As children of God, we have been allowed to represent God, and therefore we need to live our li...

The Things You Gave Your Heart To

Image
 Good Morning  S cripture reading: 2 Corinthians 4: 13-18 Worship song: Praise His Name   Meditation:      What do you do when the things you gave your all fall apart? What do you do when you have invested all your time and energy in the things you cannot control and end up losing it all? When your heart is broken and darkness is all around, when all you feel is frustration, disappointment, grief, and pain, what do you do? Who do you turn to when the one you love walks away and leaves you bewildered?       When everything falls apart, turn your eyes upon Jesus Christ. All glory and honour belong to him who loves you without merit or conditions. When you are weary and frustrated by your losses and pain, you will find comfort in the God of all comfort, who will comfort you in all your troubles. When you are left to pick up the broken pieces, remember there is a friend in Jesus who will wipe your tears away. Give the things you ca...

Position Yourself for Change

Good morning  Scripture reading:   St. Luke 19:1-10 Hymn: Dear Refuge of My Weary Soul   Meditation:      The scripture above speaks of Zacchaeus, a wealthy man, and chief among the publicans, who wanted to see Jesus Christ. He was financially wealthy but lacked salvation. Zacchaeus was seeking refuge for his soul, and therefore, he did not hesitate but went in search of Jesus. There was a multitude assembled, waiting to see Jesus, but Zacchaeus pushed his way through. He must have been ridiculed by others as he climbed the tree just to see Jesus, but he didn't care, for he knew he was broken on the inside. After Zacchaeus communed with Jesus Christ, his concept of life changed. Jesus offered him salvation, and in return, Zacchaeus offered to restore fourfold what he had taken through false accusations and offer financial assistance to the poor and needy.       Zacchaeus sought Jesus when he needed a change, and he received sal...
