My Devotional Journal: Today's Our Daily Bread author, Xochitl Dixon, AT THIS LINK relates a story of a couple encountering a vendor on a quiet beach who led the couple to share in prayer and praise God out there on the beach together.
And I don’t know about you, … fellow Christian …, but my wife and I find it very easy to praise God when we’re sharing a sunset together on almost any beach [see photo]. But in these viral days where so much fear and terror engulf the world, it is much more difficult to feel and express our praises to God.
But that’s why Jesus died for us, isn’t it? It’s why God, the Father and His Spirit raised our Lord from the grave! … And it’s why Jesus dispatched His Spirit to remind all Christians that our Lord is worthy of praise … ALWAYS … (see Scriptures above).
So, in these serious times, … even as I write this …, I imagine I’m out on one of those beaches with my wife, as in the photo, praising my Lord Who has overcome the world.
My THANKFULNESS: ... Oh Abba Father, ... thank You, Lord, … for defeating death and the world so that we, who love You, can praise You ALWAYS.
My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, ... I pray that all reading here will join me to share a robust “HALLELUJAH”, in praising our Lord in the midst of all these fearful times. … Amen
