🍞 Manna for Meditation 73

💞 Dear Royal Praying Priests, shalom!

💎“He says, ‘Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.’” (Psm 46:10)

💎 “Celebrate God all day, every day. I mean, revel in him! Make it as clear as you can to all you meet that you’re on their side, working with them and not against them. Help them see that the Master is about to arrive. He could show up any minute! Don’t fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God’s wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It’s wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the centre of your life.” (Php 4:4-7, MSG)

The world is learning to adapt fast to the COVID-19 crisis. We all have to learn the new way of life. How to greet people, how to work, how to gather, how to shop, how to eat, how to wash hands, how to wear medical masks, how to take public transportations, how to self-quarantine and….

The level of anxiety is increasing among the communities and nations. Many people are driven by fear and worries. Just look around all the empty shelves where the toilet papers should be in the supermarkets caused by panic-buying!

The COVID-19 is not the last, as there will be more catastrophes, plagues, and famines before Yeshua comes back the second time. The whole world has to be still and know that He is God, and the change starts from us first! Let us use the priestly authority, stand in the gap, keep vigilant in praying unceasingly, step out to care for the poor and the needy, and share the message of salvation, hope and love in Messiah that only we can deliver to the world.

Let us Worship Him! Be Still for the Presence of The Lord

Dear Heavenly Father, we admit that outside of You, there is no rescue or redemption. We return to You and cry out for Your restoration and revival. Help us to rejoice in You and give thanks and praises to You instead of worrying or fretting. As many people and nations are suffering now, we pray for resurrection and shalom into the economy, business, education, and industries. We proclaim that You are our shepherd, and we shall not want. We pray for Your supernatural healing for those who are afflicted by COVID-19. We pray that every one of us will live and not die to give glory to You and exalt You among the nations. In the Name of Yeshua we pray, Amen!
