A CRY FOR MERCY!

A CRY FOR MERCY!

Scriptural Highlight: (Psalm 90: 14 KJV) - "Satisfy us early with thy mercy that we may rejoice and be glad all our days."

Mercy is the unfailing love of God towards a man. It is when God  overlooks  your weaknesses and your deficiencies. Mercy qualifies a man to do or achieve things he may not be qualified for. When mercy is upon a man's life, certain doors he would never have crossed opens for him without sweat. Mercy prepares the way for favour to work in a man's life.
However, when mercy is lacking, men struggle in vain; they labour like elephants and eat like ants. When mercy is lacking in a man's life, just like Cain in Genesis 4:5, even his sacrifices are rejected. Ever seen someone lamenting his ordeal before? How he served people well and did a lot of good, yet the good works are taken for granted; the payment he received after all these good works is resentment. It is likely that mercy is lacking.
People without mercy are never happy. Brother David in our scriptural highlight understood this well when he cried, "Satisfy us early with thy mercy that we may rejoice..." Beloved, may God Himself satisfy you today with His everlasting mercies in Jesus name. Flourish!
Pray: Father in heaven, satisfy me according to your  word with your everlasting mercy in Jesus name.

MY PAST HUNTS ME! HOW DO I DEAL WITH IT NOW THAT AM IN CHRIST?

  DRAW A LINE BETWEEN YOUR PAST AND YOUR FUTURE ! Many people come to Christ daily but battle with the memories of their past life which probably was rough, painful or traumatic. I have seen many people who struggled to live their new found faith in Christ just because a terrible past life comes hunting: I have seen some who got delivered from occult involvements, terrible abuses, sexual lifestyles and other dehumanizing struggles battling to live the Christian life because of the height of what they had been through. For some of them even when God has forgiven their sins, they find it hard to forgive themselves. So the devil takes advantage of the struggle, self condemnation or guilt to hinder their growth in the things of the spirit. But the Bible teaches that, he that is in Christ is a new creation, old things are past away and behold all things are new. No matter what a person has done, as long as the person has not grieved the Holy Spirit, he can be saved. So the...

Make Alliance With Righteous Causes

Scriptural Highlight: ( 2Kings 9:17 ) - "Now the watchman was standing on the tower in Jezreel, and he saw the company of Jehu as he came and said, 'I see a company.' And Joram said, 'Take a horseman and send to meet them and let them say, 'is it well'. So a man on horseback went to meet them and said, 'Thus says the king, 'is it peace?' And Jehu answered, 'what do you have to do with peace? Turn and ride behind me." Our scriptural highlight for today showcases a scene of battle between righteousness and evil. Joram king of Israel belonged to the family of Ahab and Jezebel, people that have troubled Israel with their sorcery, covetousness and blood spills. And a word of prophecy from Elijah had gone out against this evil house saying, "Behold, I will bring evil upon thee, and will utterly sweep thee away and will cut off from Ahab every man-child...(1Kings 21:21). So, in effect, God located Jehu and anointed him to fight...
