SCRIPTURAL TEXT: Luke 17: 15
And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, returned and with a
loud voice, glorified God
December 17th
Often times, some believers do not see the need to share their testimonies. Some even feel it is so weird to do so in church because it is a call for attention on the testifier. Such believers have not had an understanding of the importance of testifying.
The most important reason we express gratitude through testimonies is because God requires we offer him our thanks. We are always required to give God what is due to Him which also includes our thankfulness.
In our scripture, Jesus had expected 10 lepers who were healed but only one came back to thank Him. He must have been shocked and so he asked, “were there not ten cleansed? But, where are the nine? Were there not any found
who returned to give glory to God except this foreigner”? There is no doubt that the other nine may have felt grateful. But, feeling grateful is different from being a grateful person.
A grateful person is one who constantly affirms and recognizes that the sources of the goodness he experiences lie at least partially outside of yourself.
Thus, today, make up your mind to always testify of God’s goodness in your life, do not hold back or hide what God has done for you, and you will continue to experience more of God’s goodness, Hallelujah!
PRAYER FOR THE DAY
Dear Father, thank you for your love towards me, I
am grateful for your love towards me in Jesus name
PRAYER FOR MALAYSIA
Background: 31% are unreached with the Gospel. They are mostly Muslim but with some Hindus and Buddhists as well. The
Malaysian Church has a wonderful opportunity to reach many unevangelized groups who are right on their doorstep.
We are praying that the Christians in Malaysia will have the vision and the courage to reach out and seize this opportunity.
Dear Father, we ask that you will sovereignly place the right people in power, those that will implement your plan
and will on the earth.
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; take away barriers and divisions from amongst
us in the church
PRAYER FOR SOULS / REVIVAL
Father, we ask that you would add unto us men and women through all the channels of outreaches and
ministry propagation, so that we may grow in number daily in the name of Jesus.
