Mobile Daily Devotional with Pst. Oluboye Emmanuel
Week 6, Day 6:
Friday, 10th February, 2023.
TOPIC: BE GRATEFUL 6:
For Being A Life
MEMORY VERSE:
Psalms 103:1-2.
“1. Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
2. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:”
BIBLE READING:
Isaiah 38:18-19.
“18. For the grave cannot praise thee, death can not celebrate thee: they that go down into the pit cannot hope for thy truth.
19. The living, the living, he shall praise thee, as I do this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth.”
The most powerful debt a living soul can owe is to deny God a grateful heart. The difference between the dead and the living is being Grateful to God no matter the condition we find ourselves. We are alive to show forth the praise of God. God said to Prophet Isaiah in Isaiah 43:21-22.
“22. This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise.
But thou hast not called upon me, O Jacob; but thou hast been weary of me, O Israel.
Being alive is showing forth God praise which is being grateful for living. When Ezekiel realises that he has extra fifteen years more to live, He lifted up his voice to show His gratitude to God, He said, The living, the living, will praise you as am doing today. Those Who go down into the grave can’t hope for the faithfulness of God. If you are alive this morning, forget every other things and be grateful for life. When you appreciate God for being alive you are proving the reason for your living. The situation of the nation is not a reason to be ingrate because you are still living. Those situations are not reason to stop praising God, 1 Thessalonians 5:18, says,
“18. In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.”
The will of God is that, all living soul should thank God no matter what. So be grateful for life this Morning.
God Morning and God Bless you.
Happy Birthday to all celebrants and Happy Wedding Anniversary to those celebrating today. May you experience God’s fruitfulness in Jesus Mighty name, Amen.
