Reconciled by God to reconcile others back to God

But all these things are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ [making us acceptable to Him] and gave us the ministry of reconciliation [so that by our example we might bring others to Him],
2 Corinthians 5:18 AMP

Praise and glory be to God for this beautiful day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it.

God through His infinite love gave His only begotten son to die to set us free from sin and death and has given us a brand new life. Bible says our connection with the Lord makes us brand new people.

Today’s scripture is the charge to continue the work of reconciliation that God initiated and has handed over to us. Our assignment is to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with the world and bring them to the Lord’s saving grace.

Reconciling the world to our original Father and Lord of Lords is the assignment entrusted to our care. Let’s go out there and bring any lost child to the Father of all.

May the Lord help us to walk in His Love and grace to reconcile others to the Lord. May we be serious with this reconciliation assignment in Jesus Mighty name. Amen.

Be sober and alert the devil is roaming like a roaring lion, Resist him

Be sober [well balanced and self-disciplined], be alert and cautious at all times. That enemy of yours, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion [fiercely hungry], seeking someone to devour. But resist him, be firm in your faith [against his attack—rooted, established, immovable], knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being experienced by your brothers and sisters throughout the world. [You do not suffer alone.]
1 Peter 5:8‭-‬9 AMP

Praise and glory be to God for this beautiful day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it.

In today’s scripture the Apostle Peter is giving us a word to stay strong and overcome the attack of the enemy. He cautions the believer to be spiritually alert. That is properly armed in the Spirit for battle, employing all the spiritual warfare tools, garments and ammunition as stated in Ephesians 6. Clothed in the power of God we resist the devil and its agents.

The Apostle reiterated that we need to be sober and put on our faith mantle so that we can resist the devil who is roaming like a roaring lion seeking to devour God’s children.

In the name of Jesus Christ we take our position in Christ and overcome any attacks of the enemy. We resist the works of the devil and claim victory in Jesus Mighty name. Amen.

Jesus Christ is the Resurrection and the Life – Believe in Him for eternal life

Jesus said to her, “ I am the Resurrection and the Life. Whoever believes in (adheres to, trusts in, relies on) Me [as Savior] will live even if he dies; and everyone who lives and believes in Me [as Savior] will never die. Do you believe this?”
JOHN 11:25‭-‬26 AMP

Glory and honour be unto Jesus for the gift of life, let us be thankful for today and celebrate His goodness.

In today’s scripture Jesus laid down some fundamental Christian principle/guideline/procedure.

Are you looking forward to eternal life through Christ Jesus? If yes, then your option is to believe in Christ Jesus who is the Resurrection and the Life. He made this bold declaration way before His death on the cross. He went to the Cross and overcame death and has made life eternal available to all who will call on His name and believe that He is Lord.

Are you yet to believe in Jesus Christ? You are not too late, now is your moment to embrace life eternal through Christ Jesus. Obtain your “spiritual security and spiritual immortality” by accepting Jesus as your Lord and Personal Saviour. Believe in Jesus Christ and you will never die (Spiritual death).
Make that decision for Christ now!

Jesus is the answer to our World, nothing holds well without Him. God bless you for connecting to and embracing Jesus Christ as your Lord and Personal Saviour. Amen.

Seek the Lord, Call on Him while He is near and Return to the Lord

Seek the Lord while He may be found; Call on Him [for salvation] while He is near. Let the wicked leave (behind) his way And the unrighteous man his thoughts; And let him return to the Lord , And He will have compassion (mercy) on him, And to our God, For He will abundantly pardon.
Isaiah 55:6‭-‬7 AMP

Glory and adoration be unto God for this beautiful day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it.

The bible enjoins us in today’s scriptures to seek the Lord and call upon His name. The Lord Jesus Christ is the only way to salvation. We are to return to the Lord for His pardon and restoration as His children.

Seek the Lord! We seek for things that are of interest and importance to us. The importance of the Lord in our lives cannot be over emphasized. He is our Lord and Saviour, our all in all.

Today is our time to call on the name of the Lord for salvation. Jesus saves and delivers. He is ready to receive us into His marvellous light and forgive us of our sins. He is a merciful and compassionate God.

Trust in the Lord and rely on Him with all your heart

Trust in and rely confidently on the Lord with all your heart And do not rely on your own insight or understanding. In all your ways know and acknowledge and recognize Him, And He will make your paths straight and smooth [removing obstacles that block your way].
Proverbs 3:5‭-‬6 AMP

Praise and Glory be to God for this beautiful third day of the year, we receive today as a gift and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. Do we involve God in our important decision making? Our God knows everything, the end from the beginning so we should be guided by His Word in every step of the way.

We need to acknowledge God in order to receive His guidance. The arm of flesh will certainly fail us so we need to go to God in prayer for His guidance and direction.

May our Trust in the Lord stay firm. May we make God the most important part of everything we do so we receive His guidance to accomplish His purposes for our lives in Jesus Mighty name. Amen
