WELCOME to MFM Devotional, 23/08/22

PRAISE & WORSHIP;

O God, Our Help In Ages Past

1 Our God, our Help in ages past,
our Hope for years to come,
our Shelter from the stormy blast,
and our eternal Home.

2 Under the shadow of Thy throne
Thy saints have dwelt secure;
sufficient is Thine arm alone,
a our defense is sure.

3 Before the hills in order stood
or earth received its frame,
from everlasting Thou art God,
to endless years the same.

4 A thousand ages in Thy sight
are like an ev’ning gone,
short as the watch that ends the night
before the rising sun.

5 Time, like an ever-rolling stream,
bears all its sons away;
they fly forgotten, as a dream
dies at the op’ning day.

6 Our God, our Help in ages past,
our Hope for years to come,
be Thou our Guide while life shall last,
and our eternal Home!

23-08-23 MESSAGE:

One of the reasons why King David was a man after God’s own heart was because when he became King, he never forgot God. He acknowledged God so much that he wanted to build temple for Him, after He had given him rest from his enemies.

This was a wonderful idea and the intent was from a pure heart. But because David’s hands had shed so much blood, God told him that his son, Solomon, would be the one to do it.

Many of us today don’t have this appreciative attitude towards God when He has answered our prayers. Some of us even forget God totally and start moving with the people of the world once we receive our miracles. This is very bad and dangerous because most times, those blessings are not always complete. God might use just a tip of the blessing to test us and see if we would be faithful.

Even King David did not to neglect God when he has answered his prayers of defeating the enemies around him. He knew that the enemy could still strike even when all is well. As long as we are still on this earth, the enemy will always try to hit us or strike at us, because he knows the worth of our soul and he will do anything to have it.

This is why we should not forget God when God has answered our prayers. We should continue praying, going to fellowship, continue to attend all the church programmes and participate in evangelism as we were doing before God answered us. We should not become proud and arrogant or become over-familiar with God, because we can fall, and fall very hard. I pray the Lord help us not to forget Him, in the name of Jesus.
