TODAY'S MESSAGE OF PRAISE AND DAILY CONFESSION NOTES



Beloved ln Christ, 

You are much loved, blessed and highly favoured to be counted among the living.

The Bible says, only those who are alive shall praise God, our heavenly Father. 

👇🏼

Psalm 115:17-18: "The dead do not praise the Lord, nor do any who go down into silence. But as for us, we will bless and affectionately and gratefully praise the Lord from this time forth and forever. Praise the Lord!" 

Isaiah 38:18-20: "For the grave cannot praise You, death cannot celebrate You. They that go down into the pit cannot hope for Your truth. The living, the living, he shall praise You, as I do this day: the father to the children shall make known Your truth." 

I have attached the Bible Writers’ stories on Leah for you to read, learn and be encouraged to praise God at all times. Finally, do share this article with all your loved ones, families, work colleagues and your social media contacts. As you share this article, may you prosper concerning all things and to be in good health, just as your soul prospers. May your “feet” [due to your mobile phone sharing device] be beautiful as you share this article to encourage and strengthen others. [Isaiah 52:7, Romans 10:15].

I have on YouTube, the story, ‘THE WOMAN WHOM GOD LOVED’. Please watch and share. Leah ‘deceptively’, obediently listened to her father Laban and went into the “consummation bed” of Jacob which was meant for her younger sister, Rachel! Leah was desperately after Jacob for LOVE but GOD was after the PRAISE IN HER WOMB! [Genesis 29:31]. God used Leah’s womb to draw HIS PRAISE OUT OF HER WOMB! Personally, when I learnt this secret, I spent hours on end praising and worshiping God in the midnight hours! Awesome testimonies to share with you at some point.

The secret into a Biblical truth of the man, Jacob and God, our heavenly Father. As Laban instructed his elder daughter, Leah, to sleep with Jacob, he never loved her! But Leah’s womb praised God by her fourth born, JUDAH [She says, “'This time I will praise [yadah] the LORD. ' Therefore, she called his name Judah [Yehudah]” (Gen. 29:35).

Do you know, Leah was not called a wife of Jacob like her younger sister, Rachel? [Genesis 46:15,19]. Although Rachel was legitimately named as ‘the wife’ of Jacob, she died on the way to Ephrath [Bethlehem: the birth town of king David and our LORD and Saviour Jesus Christ] and was buried and not in the ancestry place of burial, a field bought by Abraham for burial [Genesis 35:18-20; 49:29-31]. Jacob’s last-dying words of honour to Leah by burying her in the cave-field of Machpelah symbolises a blessing which I love to quote from Psalm 84:4 “Blessed are those who dwell in Your house; they will still be PRAISING YOU. I am adding verses 5 and 12 to complete the three set of: Continual PRAISES OF GOD; relying on His STRENGTH and TRUSTING IN HIM. Hallelujah!

Psalm 84:5,12….5 Blessed is the man whose strength is in You,
Whose heart is set on pilgrimage. 12 O Lord of hosts, Blessed is the man who trusts in You!

Out of the WOMB and MOUTH OF our Matriarch, LEAH, the foundation of the TRIBE OF JUDAH was formed and laid. King David and the LION OF THE TRIBE OF JUDAH, THE King of Kings and the LORD OF Lords, in HIM you and I live, move and have our beings; and truly, we are His Seed/children and offspring. [Acts 17:28]

Your daily commitment to praise God with your whole heart because you are alive! 

Psalm 9:1 "I will praise you, O Lord, with all my heart; I will tell of all Your marvelous works." [God's marvelous works are all around us and we can see with our eyes and enjoy life daily] 

Psalm 138:1 "I will praise you with my whole heart; before the gods I will sing praise to you."

Psalm 119:7 "l will praise You with an honest heart as I learn about how fair Your righteous laws are"

Psalm 18:2 "I love you, Lord. You are my strength."

Exodus 15:2 "The Lord is my strength and song, and He has become my salvation; He is my God, and I will praise Him; my father's God, and I will exalt Him."

*Today, I put on the Lord Jesus Christ as a garment of His righteousness and love. I seek to live a life pleasing to You. My Father and my GOD, strengthen me not to indulge in the desires of the flesh, nor focus on worldly things. [Romans 13:14; Colossians 3:1-10; 12-17]

Now the question is: Why did Jesus choose to call 3 men from the city of Bethsaida? Now, what was so unique about the city of Bethsaida for Jesus to have called 3 of His 12 disciples from this place? In the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus condemned 3 cities for not turning from sin and to faith in Him after seeing His mighty works and Bethsaida was one of them!!! Jesus called 3 disciples of Jesus (Andrew, Peter and Philip) from Bethsaida because from resear...
