Dearly Beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. The Blessed word that the Lord has given for you today is from the book of Jeremiah 29:13, “And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart”.
When you seek the Lord with all your heart, mind and soul then you will surely find God. You will be able to experience His presence and you will allow God to control your life. But if you live a life as you wish indulging in things that is not pleasing to God, then you pave way for your destruction. May be until now you have been living the way you liked, but God expects a change in your behaviour, attitude, mannerism and walk of life. You need to change from all your bad habits. If you continue to live with all these bad practices then one day it will sting you like a poisonous snake. It will not leave unless it destroys you. John 10:10 says, “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and that they might have it more abundantly”.
God wants to give you life, an eternal life to live with Him forever. Therefore tell Jesus your problems and ask for His forgiveness. Accept the word of God today, mend your ways, by doing good to others especially the poor. Zacchaeus a rich tax collector, could understand that he was wrong and turned from his wrong ways after meeting Jesus in his life. He gave back everything to the people from whom he had unrighteously collected. God also expects you to help others. God wants you to be like a Banyan tree, sheltering hundreds of birds who come for shade under the tree.
Dearly beloved, remember sin should not become part of your life, your behaviour or culture. Come out of sin. For it will bring you harm both in this life and the life to come. God expects a change of heart in you. God will bless you with His blessings.
Prayer: Our Loving heavenly Father, we thank you for this blessed day. Lord help my children to overcome sin. Forgive them Lord and accept them. Thank you for the open door you have placed before them. Save and protect my children from the evil spirit that comes to destroy them. Help them to seek you and find you in their life. In Jesus Name we pray.
Amen.
