“THE RIVER OF COMMUNION”

Saints of God Most High, hear God’s word for you today:

“You will entreat Him, and He will hear you, and you will pay what you vowed; what you decide to do will succeed, and light will shine on your path” (Job 22:27-28).

You will make your prayer to Adonai Yahweh and He will hear you, and you will pay your vows. You shall also decide and decree a thing, and it shall be established for you; and the light of God’s favour shall shine upon your ways.

THE RIVER OF COMMUNION
Morning devotion anchors the soul, so that it will not readily drift far away from God during the day. Morning devotion perfumes the heart so that it smells fragrant with piety until night falls.

It girds up the soul’s garments so that it is less apt to stumble and feeds all its powers so that it is not permitted to faint. The morning is the gate of the day and should be well-guarded with prayer.

It is one end of the thread on which the day’s actions are strung and should be well-knotted with devotion. If we felt more the majesty of life, we should be more careful of its mornings, because “For His anger is but for a moment, but His favor is for a lifetime or in His favor is life. Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning” (Psalm 30:5).

He who rushes from his bed to his usual daily business without first talking to and worshipping God is as foolish as though he had not put on his/her clothes or cleansed his/her face. He/she is unwise as though he/she had dashed into battle without arms and armour. Let us bathe in the softly flowing river of communion with God before the heat of the wilderness and the burden of the way begin to oppress us.

Beloved saints of the Living God, let us hear the summary of this issue:

You can pray like Prophet Daniel and stop the lions’ mouth.
You can pray like Prophet Elijah and call down fire from heaven.

You can pray like Prophet Elisha and humble an enemy nation.
You can pray like Prophet Moses, the chosen leader and divide the sea.

You can pray like the humble housewife Hannah and receive your Samuel from God.
You can pray like prophetess Deborah and be a mother in Israel.

Obviously! You can pray like Queen Esther and save a nation.
May God help us heed His divine call to pray for our blessed generation in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Beloved, sense the urgency of the hour and respond to the divine call to pray in Jesus’ mighty name, Amen!

Everybody shout, “THANK YOU, JESUS!”

Shalom and good morning.
