Wednesday, February 5, 2025Key Verse
“And ye shall serve the LORD your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee.” Exodus 23:25
Text — Exodus 23:25-30
Message
Have you ever been sick and taken to the hospital? How does it feel to be on drips and given injections, drugs with little or no appetite for food? How does it feel to have a high body temperature with the feeling of throwing up every single thing you eat? If you have experienced any of these before, you will know that it’s not a very pleasant experience. Now, cast your mind on some sets of children who are never out of bed due to weakness, terminal illness and bad situations that make them depend on oxygen because they cannot breathe well on their own. Apart from the financial aspect, it is a lot of burden on the parents, the caregivers and the affected child.
God will want us today to remember such children in our prayers. It might not be possible to visit them, but your prayers can reach them wherever they might be: Pray that:
(i) God should intervene and heal as many children as are ill right now.
(ii) The Lord will send help to them at this hour of need.
(iii) God will provide for all that the parents need to take care of such children.
(iv) That Jesus will please draw such children to Himself and comfort them.
Even if you are sick right now, pray for healing, believe God and you will be healed in Jesus’ name.
