SCRIPTURAL TEXT: Ephesians 6:2-3
Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;)
That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.
December 15th
Gratitude does not only end with God. You must learn to appreciate certain people who may have played a vital role in your life.
This group of persons according to our scriptural text are referred to as ‘fathers and mothers’. These fathers and mothers could be Biological Fathers/Mothers, Spiritual Fathers/Mothers, Social Fathers, etc,.
Honour is a system of God. The cycle of your thanksgiving would not be complete until you honor those who have played key roles in your life.
This appreciation should not be done with just words of mouth but also with substance, irrespective of the size and the level of possession they may already have.
In summary, thanking fathers and mothers completes the circle of thanksgiving. When you thank God and do not thank men, you cancel the effect of God’s Word by such a tradition. Therefore, as you thank the LORD, set yourself up to enjoy the fullness of God’s blessing by creating the opportunity to appreciate key players in your life.
PRAYER FOR THE DAY
Dear Father, help me to honor all those You have
used to bless me this year in Jesus name.
PRAYER FOR MALAWI
Background: 12% are unreached with the Gospel. The Yawo tribe, mostly Muslim, remain the biggest missionary challenge
in Malawi and only a few have come to Christ.
Various tribes in Malawi still practice traditional ethnic religion.
We are praying that labourers of the Gospel will arise within the churches in Malawi.
Dear Father, grant the leaders the grace to face unique challenges regarding political unrest, financial crisis, law
enforcement, racial division, and so on.
PRAYER FOR ISRAEL
Father, I ask today that there will be peace in
Jerusalem and that your purposes be established in that city. Amen (Ps 122:6)
PRAYER FOR UNITY IN THE CHURCH
We pray, oh Lord, give the leaders of the church a perfect heart, a
heart that continually seeks you in Jesus nam
PRAYER FOR SOULS / REVIVAL
Father in the name of Jesus, we ask for the support of angelic beings, saints of old, and a manifestation of the
person of Jesus for the evangelization of this city.
