HOW LONG WILL YOU MOURN OVER THAT WHICH IS LOST?

Read: 2 Samuel 12:15-23

Meditation verse:

“So, David arose from the ground, washed, and anointed himself, and changed his clothes; and he went into the house of the Lord and worshiped. Then he went to his own house; and when he requested, they set food before him, and he ate” (2 Samuel 12:20).

It is the last day of the year. Irrespective of how you think the year went for you, praise God that you made it this far and are alive.
• You may not have achieved the goals you set.
• You may not have started that business.
• You may not have gotten that house.
• You may not have bought that car.
• You may not have gotten married.
• You may not have gotten pregnant.
• You may have lost someone precious.
• You may be in a place of grief.

Irrespective of what you lost or failed to achieve over the year, do not lose your hope and faith in God. Each day offers a new beginning and opportunity for a fresh start. Tomorrow is the beginning of a new day, the beginning of a new year. How long will you mourn over your loses? As the clock strikes at midnight today, why not do as king David did: arise from the ground, wash, and anoint yourself, change your clothes (signifying a change in your countenance and mindset), and worship God. Then move forward and enter a new chapter of your life. “And the Lord said to Moses, “Why do you cry to Me? Tell the children of Israel to go forward” (Exodus 14:15). Go forward!

IN HIS PRESENCE is written by Oke Chinye.
Have you asked Jesus Christ to come into your heart?

He says in Mathew 11:28, “come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” He longs to give you rest."

Would you like to do so now? Here’s a prayer you can say:
Dear Jesus, I believe that You died to save me from all my sins. Today, I invite you into my heart and I accept you as my Lord and Saviour. Please forgive all my sins and help me to live my life for You.

If you prayed this prayer, send me an email at rockteachingministry@gmail.com

I would love to pray with you personally and send you a copy of my book; ‘Living the Life’ to encourage you as you begin your new life in Christ.
