You are the Lord that healeth me…You are the Lord My healer…. You sent Your Word and You heal my diseases, You are the Lord My healer….You sent Your Word and heal my diseases, You are the Lord my healer… // On the way to Calvary He went for me…He went for me…He went for me… On the Way to Calvary He went for me…He died to set my free!!!
Thank You Father for the love shown me even as a worst sinner…You sent Your Son to take my place…He bore my sins, pains, sorrows, sicknesses, failure, in my place He was not pleasant to look upon…thank You Father for taking away my shame, my aches, my weakness, my disappointments You are more than what we call You…be Thou glorify O Lord forever and ever in Jesus Name….
Today again we gather at Your feet…looking unto Him, the Author and Finisher of our faith… Help us to always remember that Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever…He will always be there for us in pains, sorrow and sickness…in our sad moments and our happy moments help us to look not to the North, South, East or West for help aside in Him for in Him we have our being. Amen!
Beloveth, good morning… How are doing? Our God is good all the time… Great is our Father Who art in heaven, let’s hallow His Name for He reigns forever and ever Amen!!! Thank God for the gift of His Son for our joy and peace…His Name alone be praise for ever in Jesus Name!!!
Yesterday we discussed ‘Knowing Christ.’ There were many questions coming from these two but powerful words… like ‘Do you know Jesus?’, ‘How well do you know Him?’ How intimate are you with Him?’ ‘Do you know that activities cannot replace your worship of Christ?’ Also memorizing the whole Bible verses does not represent your relationship with Him more than your offering of worship and intimates relationship… is on and on dear beloveth… may God help us to get it right with Him in Jesus Name…
Beloveth, today we saw worship in demonstrated by a woman whom Christ cast out seven of demons.… Mary Magdalene… This daughter of God followed Jesus thereafter till the end of His earthly ministry…it was recorded in Mark the Gospel, chapter 16:9… “now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, He appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom He has cast seven devils…”
What do you think that motivated this demonstration of love aside the fulfillment of scripture …beloveth is only close intimate relationship that she had with our Lord Jesus Christ that would have motivated her to break her treasured and priced perfume at her Lord’s feet and worship Him.
Mary Magdalene realized that Jesus saved her from everlasting doom and brought her to everlasting “Light” and she came to worship.
How often do we worship God with our treasured substances? How often do we pick up assignment in God’s house to further the gospel other than seeking position in the house of God? How often do we engage in bring the weary and despondent in God’s house by helping and pointing them to Jesus than to self?….
Beloveth we are called to worship than activities that exclude knowing Christ Jesus more intimate in our lives… may God help us to know Jesus intimately and worship Him in Jesus Name
Join us we discover more below:
Then Mary took a pound of fragrant oil—pure and expensive and—anointed Jesus’ feet, and wiped His feet with her hair. So the house was filled with the fragrance of the oil.—John 12:3
Mary seemed drawn to the feet of Jesus. It is not surprising that of all those who followed Jesus, Mary was the one to anoint His feet. The disciples would have their opportunity to show the same love, but pride would prevent them (John 13:12–13). Martha, too, was prone toward acts of service, but she had developed a different kind of relationship with Jesus than Mary had.
While Martha had labored on Jesus’ behalf in the kitchen, Mary had joyfully sat at Jesus’ feet and listened to Him teach (Luke 10:38–42). Because Mary had come to know and love Jesus in this way, she was ready to humble herself and offer this poignant expression of love to Him. Such depth and sincerity of love comes only through spending time in close fellowship with Jesus.
The way we express our love for Jesus depends on the kind of relationship we have developed with Him. Our love for Him will not grow unless we spend time with Him, listen to His voice, and experience His love for us. If we find that our love for Jesus has waned or that we struggle to serve Him, it is a clear sign that we must take time to sit at His feet.
We may have been involved in Christian activity on His behalf and yet neglected our relationship with Him. After we have spent time in intimate fellowship with our Lord, and after we have heard His voice and received His love, we will be prepared to serve Him, even laying down our life for Him if that is what He asks.
Beloveth, this is the kind of worship Jesus desires of us…so as we pray today let us ask God for the grace to spend time at His Presence more than our choicest activity in Jesus Name…Help us to mediate on His Word till we see Him imprinted on the Word we read… Beloveth ask God for the grace upon Mary Magdalene life to offer Him our priced gift – career, time, wealth, life or anything God lies in our life back to Him without counting the cost in Jesus Name…
And as we worship Jesus with great understanding, His Spirit will open us to higher dimension of understanding on whom He truly is in Jesus Name…
Father, as You used Mary Magdalene in Jesus ministry having receive deliverance from Him…help us to offer ourselves and our all to Him in Jesus Name.
Join us to pray this prayer if you are willing to worship Him with your choicest treasure…
Ask God to help you to make prayer a habit- well beyond just these seven days.
Father, make each of my days to be full of conversations with You. I can’t say I am doing Your work if I rarely talk to You. God, I know that depending on myself or my ability will fall so far short of what You are capable of doing. Do more than I know to ask for or imagine, keep me on my face before You. In my busiest of seasons, protect me from prayerlessness. And despite how competent I may feel for a task, let the way I pray demonstrate my full dependence on You.
Let any worry lead me into prayer. And God, convict me that anything not worth praying about certainly isn’t worth a second of my anxiety. I know that time in Your Presence will fill me with peace and joy, but so do others. Fill me with Your peace, joy, mercy and grace. Lord, unless You give it to me, I am not capable of giving it to others on my own.
Increase my confidence in You with every conversation. Increase the intimacy that I have with You. increase my relationship with You. Help me to store up moments that exist just between us, Lord. I don’t need anything from You. you have already given me far more than I deserve. I just want to know You more. …
I love You, and I trust You….
Have Your way again Father today as we pray in Jesus Name…
Let us pray beloveth….in Jesus Name.
Rom 5:5, Ps 25:14., Jn 14:3
Remain blessed in the Lord.
