Capitalizing on Weaknesses

Image
Good morning Scripture reading: Isaiah 40:28-31 Worship song: You Are My Strength  Meditation:      The damsel mentioned in Acts 16 had the spirit of divination and was exploited by her master to solely fill his coffers. He had no interest in her except to fill his treasury with riches. This serves as a powerful reminder of the manipulation tactics that exist in society today. It is essential to recognize these manipulation tactics and know when you are being exploited by others. It is also crucial to recognize the situation, prioritize your well-being, and set boundaries to protect yourself.       However, it is difficult for those who are vulnerable to prioritize and set boundaries. When you are vulnerable, it is easy for people to capitalize on your vulnerabilities. They will play on our empathy and kindness until they are satisfied. Many deceivers take advantage of the opportunity to exploit the vulnerable for personal gain, often thro...

Stay Under The Blood

Image
Good morning Scripture reading: Hebrews 9 Worship song: Power in the Blood   Meditation:      Throughout the Old Testament scriptures, we read about the shedding of blood, which symbolizes purification and cleansing. The blood of selected unblemished animals, such as bulls, lambs, turtledoves, and young pigeons, were used for the atonement of sin. However, since the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, there is no need for animal sacrifice; Jesus's shed blood is the ultimate sacrifice for the remission of our sins. Through the blood of Jesus, the spotless sacrificial Lamb, we are offered redemption once and for all.       When we establish a covenant with Jesus Christ, we are marked by his blood and liberated from the chains and bondage of sin. It is crucial to recognize that salvation is granted only to those who confess, repent, assist, believe, and accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour. Once you accept Christ, sin cannot have dominion...

Rejoice With Exceeding Gladness

Image
Good morning  Scripture reading: Revelation 21:2-7 Hymn: No Tears in Heaven   Meditation:      O weary soul oppressed by grief and pain, rejoice and be exceeding glad because there is coming a day when weeping will cease. Through the ransom of the Lord, we have obtained joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing will vanish. Look forward with unwavering patience to the faithful promise of the Lamb who stands supreme and shepherds us to springs of living water, wiping away every tear from our eyes. As you try desperately to overcome life's struggles, fear not or be dismayed, for God will strengthen you, help you, and uphold you with his righteous right hand. The challenges and difficulties you encounter, the tears that block your vision, will soon be dried, wiped away by divine love. Although the human frame is prone to suffering affliction, do not be disheartened.       If you lie on your bed of affliction and are hard-pressed on ever...

An Arrest Warrant is Issued

Image
Good morning Scripture reading: Colossians 2:13-15 Worship song: Rescue   Meditation:      An arrest warrant is a powerful legal document signed by a judge or magistrate granting law enforcement the authority to make an arrest. Every day, these warrants are prepared and served to ensure justice is upheld. In our walk of faith, there are three warrants we must recognize: the arrest warrant from God, the warrant from the enemy, and the judicial warrant issued based on probable cause that a crime has been committed. The warrant from God is for our greater good, to break chains and liberate us from sin. This is why he sent his son into the world not to condemn us but to redeem us to himself. When we humbly plead guilty and confess our sins, He is faithful and just in forgiving us and cleansing us from all unrighteousness.       When we surrender, God will cancel every legal violation against us and completely erase the old arrest warrant ...

The Great Covenant

The Family Altar

Image
Good morning Week of prayer - Day 5 And if it seems evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. Joshua 24:15 Worship song: The Family Prayer Song   Let us pray:      Elohim, my deliverer, my strong tower, the God of mercy and grace, you deserve the glory, honor, and praise, for you are worthy, O God. Heavenly Father, as I enter your throne room of grace, purify me, O God, from all infirmities; cleanse and wash me of carnal weaknesses. Lord, as I bow at the altar of petition on behalf of the well-being of families and children, use me as your oracle, O God. Father, the enemy has launched an attack against family and children. There is cruelty in the heartless, and the wicked devices of their evil plot are aimed at dismantling unity, disruptin...

Pulling Down Strongholds

Image
Good morning Week of prayer - day 4 For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds. 2 Corinthians 10:4 Worship song: Strong Man   Let us pray:      Covenant Keeping God, mighty and powerful in all your work, I magnify you, for you are the great High Priest. Abba Father, shatter the stronghold of negativity that seeks to abort your divine purpose in my life and the lives of my family, friends, and loved ones. I call upon you, Lord, to create confusion in the enemy's camp, disrupt their plans, and burn down every ungodly altar. I command every diabolical spirit that seeks to prevent us from pursuing God's divine plan to be utterly destroyed by the fire of the Holy Spirit. Father, break and render the spirit of bitterness, malice, wrath, unforgiveness, anger, and evil speaking powerless in the name of Jesus Christ.       Lord, I command the strongman of addiction, deception, immoral...
