DAILY SHOWER June 4, 2023 Devotion and Declarations
Prayer before the Word:
_ O God, I thank You for yet another day. I magnify Your name because You are my God and all I have. Please, use me according to Your will and prosper me in Jesus name, Amen_
TODAY’S TOPIC: Praise the all knowing God
Text: Isaiah 40:10-20 (NIV):
"40:10. See, the Sovereign LORD comes with power, and his arm rules for him. See, his reward is with him, and his recompense accompanies him.
40:11. He tends his flock like a shepherd: He gathers the lambs in his arms and carries them close to his heart; he gently leads those that have young.
40:12. Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, or with the breadth of his hand marked off the heavens? Who has held the dust of the earth in a basket, or weighed the mountains on the scales and the hills in a balance?
40:13. Who has understood the mind of the LORD, or instructed him as his counselor?
40:14. Whom did the LORD consult to enlighten him, and who taught him the right way? Who was it that taught him knowledge or showed him the path of understanding?
40:15. Surely the nations are like a drop in a bucket; they are regarded as dust on the scales; he weighs the islands as though they were fine dust.
40:16. Lebanon is not sufficient for altar fires, nor its animals enough for burnt offerings.
40:17. Before him all the nations are as nothing; they are regarded by him as worthless and less than nothing.
40:18. To whom, then, will you compare God? What image will you compare him to?
40:19. As for an idol, a craftsman casts it, and a goldsmith overlays it with gold and fashions silver chains for it.
40:20. A man too poor to present such an offering selects wood that will not rot. He looks for a skilled craftsman to set up an idol that will not topple.
SHOWER (Reflection):
Praise be to God, the Almighty for making us to see this day. We thank Him for a new day, new life, and new opportunities. If not Him, it wouldn't be possible. Like today's reading implies, He leads us, tends us like His flocks and will never allow us to go hungry or miss road. Before Him all the nations are nothing but He makes all to become something. As we go to our various churches to praise Him today, let's not forget to thank Him for what He is doing for our parents, siblings and relatives... Hand over everything about you to Him, and He will lead us to succeed in this season of hard times in Jesus name, Amen.
