Revelation of the Word:

THEME: CHRIST OUR HOPE

1 Peter 1:3-5 NKJV

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you, who are kept by the power of God through faith for salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.”

INSIGHT

–Apostle Peter begins by praising God for His great mercy, which He has bestowed upon us through His death and resurrection causing us believers to be born again to a living hope in Him. The living hope that signifies a dynamic and enduring confidence rooted in the resurrection of Christ. Some religions and people base their hope in witchcraft, sorcery, idols and other gods like Buddha for Hindus, Zeus for the Greek, Jupiter for Roman’s, Allah for Islam etc. who do not offer eternal life. Jesus Christ took the keys to hades and hell, and he has won the battle over eternal death for all those who believe in Him. Unlike worldly hopes that may disappoint, the hope that Jesus offers is alive and comforting, providing believers with the assurance of salvation and future inheritance.

We allow You dear Jesus to take charge of our lives, our families, work and businesses, assignments and purposes, future and the future of our nation. We need Your grace that delivers from every weakness, sickness, oppression, depression, delay, stagnation, and disillusionment. We ask for favor before You Lord and before men that You may raise our horns and set us free. May You help us and uphold us with Your righteous right hand, we need You. May Your grace engulf us, Your mercy cover us and Your favor accompany us every where we go. Whoever You set free dear Jesus is free indeed, may You set us free loving Savior. May Your resurrection power release unto us Your true salvation to us, our relatives, and brothers and sisters from other religions that we may all have eternal life. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with us now and forever more. Amen

Blessed Tuesday
