Trusting God through every season, prayer, and the daily walk of worship.
Avoid being among the irreverent. Those who casually and lightly go about the holy things of God. Those who use phones in worship to engage in entertainment and social media communication. Those who by their presence, dressing, and conduct, degrade the place of worship to a commonplace. Those who generate and share jokes about God. Such people offend God. Avoid being listed among such people!
Are you filthy and guilty? Are you a stranger in the place of worship because of carelessly skipping worship? Are you guilty of immorality? Are you a hater, a super hater? Are you a revenge seeker who never forgives and mercilessly punishes others? Are you a thief? Are you a murderer? Are you a sex pervert? Are you filthy and guilty? If you are filthy and guilty stand before the LORD!
If you will think carefully you will discover what happens to your money that is never enough. If we think carefully we will return to God for our own good. We will return to God for the good of our businesses, jobs, health, families, studies, etc. Don’t just think, think carefully!
He came out when I was lonely. He came out when I was indisposed. He came out during a road accident. He came out when I was stressed and depressed. He came out that is why I am still alive. You came out, come out again!
God has not changed. God who went silent during Micah’s time can still go silent in our times. God expects justice and mercy or else without further warning He will go silent on those who defy Him consistently. God’s silence is a terrible thing. Please God don’t do this to me!
Wearing sackcloth is not a biblical command to be applied in our times. Expressing sorrow for sins is not limited to wearing of sackcloth. It’s grotesque to dress in sackcloth today with no religious meaning.
Has your family betrayed you? Love again. Have any of your friends betrayed you? Love again. Are colleagues the source of your troubles and all love is lost and the place has become toxic? Love again. Are you tired of everything around here and all you feel like is quitting? Love again. Love your job again. Love your spouse again. Love your parents again. Love your children again. Love your relatives again. Show your love again!
Are you so faithful to God that a boyfriend or girlfriend is most likely to break up with you because you don’t engage in sex before marriage? Will they light a fire in advance? Is your mischievous spouse so sure you won’t cheat that they have to find other grounds to accuse you? Are your bosses and customers so sure that you will deliver on the assignment that they will not try to catch you on incompetence and will need other grounds? Will they have to act in advance since you are so faithful to God? Will they light a fire in advance?
Successful and effective public speaking must be preceded by deep and wide study…ear God, help us to eat and fill our stomachs before engaging the world and making continuous attempts to excellence. Bless us as we eat and fill our stomachs, in Jesus’ name, Amen!
