 PRAYER, WORSHIP, THANKS AND PRAISE TO THE GOD OF GODS, LORD OF LORDS.

OFFERING TO THE GOD OF GODS, LORD OF LORDS, THESE MISSION WORKS.

GAVE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO POOR FAMILIES.

 RECEIVED BLESSINGS FROM OUR BRETHREN AFAR.

GAVE THESE BLESSINGS TO OTHERS IN NEED.

 AS WE ARE DOING THESE MISSION WORKS, THERE ARE DARK CLOUDS IN THE HEAVENS ABOVE US.

REMEMBERING THIS  VERSE:

PSALM 18:9

HE BOWED THE HEAVENS ALSO, AND CAME DOWN WITH THICK DARKNESS UNDER HIS FEET.

GAVE ALMS TO THE POOR.

 DISTRIBUTED AID TO POOR STUDENTS.

 DISTRIBUTED THE CONTENTS OF THIS BOX AMONG THE POOR.

 DISTRIBUTED RICE WITH FOOD AMONG THE POOR.

 GAVE MY BREAD TO A POOR FAMILY.

 GAVE ALMS TO THE POOR AFTER THIS.

THANKS AND PRAISE BE TO OUR GOD.

MESSAGE FOR THE DAY:

2 Corinthians 9: 9-11

as it is written, "HE SCATTERED ABROAD, HE GAVE TO THE POOR, HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS ENDURES FOREVER." 

Now He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed for sowing and increase the harvest of your righteousness; 

you will be enriched in everything for all liberality, which through us is producing thanksgiving to God.

THANKS AND PRAISE TO OUR GOD FOR THIS MESSAGE

ADDENDUM:

OTHER HAPPENINGS THIS DAY:

HAVE THIS LAPTOP REPAIRED.

THE PROBLEM IS THAT THIS LAPTOP ONLY OPERATES UNDER THE POWER OF ITS BATTERIES AND WILL NOT CHARGE WHEN THE LAPTOP IS OPENED AND USED.

REFLECTION:

LIKE THIS LAPTOP, THERE IS A NEED FOR US TO FIND TIMES TO TURN OFF OURSELVES FROM THE DAILY ROUTINES OF LIFE, AND FIND SILENT TIMES WITH GOD, SO THAT WE MAY ALSO RECHARGE, LIKE THIS LAPTOP.

LIKE THIS LAPTOP'S CURRENT STATE, WHICH CHARGES ONLY WHEN IT IS TURNED OFF, WE CAN ONLY RECHARGE IN THE SPIRIT THROUGH TURNING OFF OUR ATTENTION TO THE WORLD AND FOCUSING OURSELVES TO GOD, DURING THAT SILENT TIME WE ARE PRAYING AND MEDITATING TO GOD.

REMEMBERING THIS AS I MEDITATE ON THIS EVENT:

Psalm 1:1-3

How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, Nor stand in the path of sinners, Nor sit in the seat of scoffers! 

But his delight is in the law of the LORD, And in His law he meditates day and night. 

He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water, Which yields its fruit in its season And its leaf does not wither; And in whatever he does, he prospers.…

ANOTHER EVENT THAT HAPPENED TODAY:

I was walking on the street to a certain destination.

I felt something stinging the sole of my right foot.

I did not mind it much until I have crossed the street.

Went to see what it is.

It was a broken shard of glass, that I have been stepping on my right foot.

Thanks and praise be to God, that broken peace of glass did not pierced nor wounded my \right foot.

If it did so, it will be very inconvenient for me to continue on with the mission works this day.

Thanking God for His protection.

Remembering this as this event happened:

Psalm 145:20

The LORD watches over all who love him, but all the wicked he will destroy.

ANOTHER EVENT THAT HAPPENED THIS DAY:

As I walk along to ponder on how to go about the mission works this day, I found my cellphone lost.

This cellphone is necessary for the continuance of our mission works, for it receives messages from our brethren.

I searched for the lost cellphone, and prayed for God for His guidance.

The message entered my mind, to come to a certain place.

I went where the spirit directed me, and found my cellphone untouched.

Thanks and praise be to God.

This message came to my mind as this event happened to me this day:

Luke 15: 4-7

"What man among you, if he has a hundred sheep and has lost one of them, does not 

leave the ninety-nine in the open pasture and go after the one which is lost until 

he finds it?

"When he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. 

"And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to 

them, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!'

"I tell you that in the same way, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner 

who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.

Also remembered this as this message came to me this day through the actual event that happened:

Luke 15: 31-32

"And he said to him, 'Son, you have always been with me, and all that is mine is yours. 

But we had to celebrate and rejoice, for this brother of yours was dead and has begun to live, and was lost and has been found.'"

I felt happiness after finding my lost cellphone.

Imagine what God feels if a sinner who is lost will come to Him, and repent, and change their ways to follow God's will in accordance to their abilities?

there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.

I wish that there will be more joy in the heavens for sinners repenting to God, and coming back to Him.

God bless everyone.
