MFM Topic, Tue 26 March 2024: lesson from the life of Miriam (4)

Beloved! Remember Bridges and walls are made with the same materials. But though Bridge joins the people, But Wall divides the people. Are you a Bridge that link people together or you are a Wall that separates people.

Welcome to MFM Devotional, 26 March 24

PRAISE & WORSHIP:
Praise, my soul, the King of heaven;
to his feet your tribute bring.
Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,
evermore his praises sing.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Praise the everlasting King!

2 Praise him for his grace and favor
to his people in distress.
Praise him, still the same as ever,
slow to chide, and swift to bless.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Glorious in his faithfulness!

3 Fatherlike he tends and spares us;
well our feeble frame he knows.
In his hand he gently bears us,
rescues us from all our foes.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Widely yet his mercy flows!

4 Angels, help us to adore him;
you behold him face to face.
Sun and moon, bow down before him,
dwellers all in time and space.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Praise with us the God of grace!

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Samuel 20, 1 Samuel 21, 1 Samuel 22; James 4, James 5

MEMORY VERSE: Acts 20:28 – “Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.”

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE: 
Who you follow determines who follows you; influence is powerful!

26 MARCH PROPHETIC WORD: Receive the power to become a positive role model, in the name of Jesus.

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Exodus 15: 20-21

And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances.

21 And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to the Lord, for he hath triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.

26 MARCH MESSAGE:

Miriam was a leader. She had a great influence on the women in their congregation such that they all followed her. The Bible says “…….. and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances.” She must have lived a life worthy of emulation that may have caused all the women to want to follow her leadership.

I want to point out here that all the women could not have been so sheepish to be following a leader who does not have track record of exemplary lifestyle. Even if some are that sheepish, definitely all cannot be. The Scripture says all went after her. What a great leader!

Beloved, when you look at how you interact with others, are you someone that others want to be around and follow? What kind of leader are you? Is it the one that tell people to “do as I say but don’t do as I do?”

Note that before all the women went after her with timbrels, she herself first of all took a timbrel. She led by example. She wasn’t like the Pharisees that bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men’s shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers (Matthew 23:4). She didn’t sit on the high table bossing everyone around. Her leadership made others want to serve God.

Another lesson we can learn from her is that she was a worshipper. She sang praises to God with her voice, timbrel and dance. God has won a major battle for them. She didn’t trivialize the doings of God. Rather, she showed it and danced as David danced. Although, they are not yet in their promised land, she celebrated every bit of the victories that showed up along the way to their promised land.

She was not ashamed to testify to the world that God is the doer of wonders. Many of us take so many of God’s wonders in our lives for granted. Let us cultivate the habit of worshipping God all the time.
