CHARISMA DAILY DEVOTIONAL

WEDNESDAY 14 OCTOBER 2020

THE WIDOW'S MIGHT

Scriptural Reading: Luke 21: 1-4

The widow's might has become a very popular catchphrase, especially when situations of giving arise. We tend to equate our might in giving or offering to that of the widow Jesus described in the Bible. We are not always right because virtually all of us who say this rarely inched into our reserve. It is not always all we have. Our gifts are usually like a pinch of sand from a desert when compared with our reserve. We are giving from our surplus. But the widow of today “gave all that she had to live on”.

God does not want us to reserve anything as we make offerings to him. The problem we have is that our thoughts are always on the money when we read this bible passage. Money is part of it but it also involves all that we treasure including our lives. He does not want a pinch from the desert of our possessions. He wants the pinch as well as the surplus. He wants to be the manager of all that we value so that he can dispense them as they please him. This is quite difficult but it is all about faith.

 

MEDITATION:

Is the widow's might the all you can give or the all you have?

 

STRATEGIC PRAYER POINTS:

1. Lord teach me to give until it hurts

2. Sing the hymn, “All to Jesus I surrender, humbly at his feet I bow”

3. Pray today for the liberality to give in all circumstances

4. Pray for the Leaders of the Church and of the Catholic Charismatic Renewal of Nigeria,

5. Present your private intentions to God

6. Say your daily prophetic Prayers (Page 6)

7. Pray the act of consecration to the Holy Spirit

 

DAILY PROPHETIC PRAYERS

Lord, you are my Shepherd there is nothing I shall want. You make me lie down in green pastures. You also lead me beside the still waters. Lord, you restore my soul and lead me on the path of righteousness for your namesake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadows of death, I shall fear no evil. For you oh Lord are with me in all situations. Your shepherd rod comforts me with signs and wonders, deliverance and protection in the victorious name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Amen.

For this reason, I shall neither stumble nor fall. I shall not be a victim of accident, sickness, diseases and untimely death. I shall rise above every limitation and rejoice as you prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.

You oh Lord have anointed my head with oil and has declared to the hearing of my enemies; “Touch not my anointed and do my prophet no harm”. By the reason of your anointing upon my life oh Lord, my cup overflows with grace, mercy, uncommon favours, divine uplifting and your blessing that makes rich and adds no sorrows in the mighty name of Jesus.

Surely, your goodness and mercy shall follow me, all the days of my life and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord, forever and ever in the most powerful name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Amen.

 

PRAYER TO ST MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL AGAINST THE FORCES BEHIND COVID - 19.

Holy Michael, the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebukes him, we humbly pray, and do you, O Prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who wander through the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

 

WE PRAY WITH ST JUDE THE PATRON OF DIFFICULT CASES AGAINST THE SPREAD OF CORONA VIRUS

O most holy apostle, Saint Jude, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, the Church honoureth and invoketh thee universally, as the patron of hopeless cases and things almost despaired of.

Pray for me, who am so miserable. Make use, I implore thee, of that particular privilege accorded to thee, to bring visible and speedy help where help was almost despaired of.

Come to mine assistance in this great need, that I may receive the consolation and succour of Heaven in all my necessities, tribulations, and sufferings, particularly...

(insert your prayer request here, especially  the menace of COVID - 19 Pandemic)

...and that I may praise God with thee and all the elect throughout eternity.

I promise thee, O blessed Jude, to be ever mindful of this great favour, to always honour thee as my special and powerful patron, and to gratefully encourage devotion to thee. Amen.
