WHAT A WONDERFUL DAY


SCRIPTURAL READING: PSALM 118:17-24

TEXT: "This is the day, the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it." (2.24).


COMMENTARY

Each day the Lord has made is magnificent. It displays the experience. "Then when the evening cometh, we will kneel again to pray, and thank Thee for the blessings bestowed throughout the day" (The Children Hymn Book, 1881), which is understandable given the song's origin.

After the day's events, it is imperative that we give thanks to the Lord. Some people left the house and never returned. The Lord deserves the gratitude of the one who survived. The Lord has taken care of our going out and coming in, as well as our daily requirements.. Some days are full of favors from both God and people (wonderful surprises of God's package) when it was least expected. Before you go to sleep, beloved, give thanks to God for the blessings and victories you have received today. He will do more tomorrow. Why don't we get together to honor Him and celebrate the day that the Lord has created?

Prayer Points:

1. Lord, grant me the gratitude I need to express my gratitude for your daily acts of compassion.

2. May I always remember to get down on my knees and pray at the end of each night.

3. Give me the ability to feel thankful on both good and bad days.


Sleeping Capsule

Each day is unique in its own way. Always appreciate God for it.

THE GOD OF COVENANT

  Bible Reading : Exodus 2:23-25 Text : "He remembers his covenant forever, the word He commended, for a thousand generation" (Ps. 105:8). NIV COMMENTARY : The Israelites spent 430 years in Egypt. The earlier part of this period was spent in joy; when the Pharaohs that knew Joseph were on the throne. But the later part was in agony; when the Pharaoh that knew not Joseph reigned, their suffering was so unbearable that they cried unto God, and the Bible says; "God heard their groaning and remembered and remembered his covenant with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (Exo. 2:24, 25). God heard their groaning but what moved him was the covenant. Listen! Your name, tears, knowledge, experience or wealth may not move God but covenant does. You can maintain your covenant with God by walking blamelessly and constantly putting Him in remembrance of the covenant which is the scripture.. As you are about to sleep tonight, I prophesy to you that this year's covenant is moving God for your...

EQUIPPED FOR SPIRITUAL ARMOR

Bible Reading : Ephesians 6:10-13 Text : Eph. 6:12 "For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places". (NKJV) COMMENTARY Every Christian is in a combat field. The conflict is spiritual. When you succeed spiritually, the physical is a work over. The spiritual governs the physical. We are grateful that God provided for our combat weapons rather than abandoning us helplessly. Read More...

GIVE GENEROUSLY

Image
Bible Reading : 11 Corinthians 9:6-12 Text : 2 Corinthians 9:6 "But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully".(NKJV) COMMENTARY Simply put, sparingly implies giving very little compared to what you already have. Giving must be done sacrificially to produce results. That is a generous donation. Giving that doesn't affect you isn't a plentiful seed; a bountiful seed hurts the giver but moves God. When you give to God's work or someone who is unable to repay you, miracles happen.. Read More
