The Lord’s Prayer Explained

Leave a comment

As part of his assignment Jesus proposed a very simple prayer as a guide to his new converts. He understood they would need it and drafted a simple prayer for them. Before Christ only the Pharisees were permitted to read the scriptures and lead in songs. In Mathew 6 all that changed. Thus he opened theirs eyes to all they have been denied of.

He listens

Our Father in Heaven

They can talk to God directly now. No one has to do that on their behalf. He is in heaven but is very near.

Hallowed be Your Name

God cherishes our praise. He adores it when we say it ourselves. May everything that has breath praise the Lord. This is what God cherishes.

Thy Kingdom Come

We can ask for God’s authority to be established in our homes, business centers, churches, school and especially on earth. His Kindom represents his glory and power.

Thy Will be Done on Earth

We can ask for God’s Will to be done. We know that his will represents his thoughts for us (Jeremiah 29 vs 11). We can ask for that too.

Grant us This Day our Daily Bread

Meet us at our point of need today both in the spirit and in kind. God will never leave nor forsake.

Forgive us Our Sins as We forgive others

Jesus knew that we must forgive others if we are to be forgiven. This is the way of Heaven. God is ever ready to forgive.

Lead us not into Temptation

There are trials and temptations that Heaven permits. But then they are to help us become better. However, if we daily as for safety, even mercy will prevail for our sake.

Deliver us from all Evil

This especially is God’s desire for us. He wants us to stay safe and be comforted. He is ever willing to defend us. (Psalm 91 vs Isaiah 54)

All power and glory belongs to Yahweh. He is ever faithful to help us in times of need. Now, may the grace of our Lord Jesus. The love of God. The fellowship of the Holy Spirit. Be with you now and forever even until the return of our saviour

David’s Angels (Destiny Helpers)

Leave a comment

David’s war successes were not only due to his solo efforts nor were they completely as a result of his prowess. He had with him three great warriors who gave their all in all towards supporting him in his war campaigns. Who were they?

Divine Helper
  1. Jashobeam: The leader of the three. He was of the tribe of Hacono. It is recorded in 2 Samuel 23 vs 8 that he once used his spear to kill 800 enemy warrior in a single battle.
  2. Eleazar: The Second in command. He is the Son of Dodai of the tribe of Ahoah. He once stood by David alone against the Philistines when the entire army of Israel fled. It is recorded in verse 9 that he killed so many philistines until he became too tired.
  3. Shammah: Son of Agee from the tribe of Harar. He was the third in command. It is recorded that he once stood against enemy alone at the center of the field and beat them back.

These three were so great and loyal that they once broke through the enemy line just to fetch drinking water for David. They gave their all to see that David succeeded.

Jesus and his twelve

Just like David, Jesus enjoyed the loyalty of his first disciples. They were with him most of the time ensuring the crowd did not get too close to him. They accepted his teaching and followed his footstep even to death. These were brave men who executed the great commission.

God understands that without destiny helpers it would be difficult to execute his instructions 100% in a chaotic world like this. Moses, Joshua, Gideon, and the others all had helps without which they could do nothing. These helpers were all there when they were needed most.

Dear Messengers, May heaven provide for you your destiny helpers when you need them most.
