THE BEAUTY OF GODLINESS
By Pastor Ayo-Simeon Agbelusi
With the dawn of a new beginning, this year is poised to unfold with a multitude of beautiful blessings from the Lord Most High. The Lord, who reigns supreme, has perfected all aspects of this year and will commence the process of imparting these blessings to those who have chosen to dwell in His presence and conduct themselves in a manner that is worthy of His divine impartations. He’s a just God.
The Bible says in Psalm 4:3, But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him.
Today’s scripture reading vividly illustrates the attractiveness of a godly lifestyle and the necessity of conducting oneself honorably, faithfully, and righteously in one’s relationship with the Lord. This passage also clearly indicates that God will not show favoritism towards individuals who stubbornly resist repentance and remain unrighteous in heart, whereas His children who live godly lives will forever be the recipients of His blessings and prosperity. Furthermore, God will respond favorably to the prayers of those who meticulously obey His commandments and walk in His ways. In light of this, it is vital to make a conscious effort to integrate godliness into every facet of our lives as we navigate the journey of this new year, and to walk in humility with our God.
Declaration: I pray that as you navigate this new season, you will remain faithful and committed to the Owner of your soul and not relinquish the precious blessings that He has in store for you because of disobedience, pride, and unforgiveness, in Jesus’ name.
