Title: "Father, Change My Destiny"

Dear Beloved Brothers and Sisters,

We gathered today under the guidance of Deacon Joseph Ash*tei AMARH to reflect upon the powerful message he shared with us. The theme that resonated through his words was "Father, Change My Destiny."

Drawing from the scriptures in *John 5:1-10* and *John 9:14*, Deacon Joseph reminded us of the story of the crippled man, whose willingness to be healed exemplifies the transformative power of faith and hope. In *John 9:14,* we encounter the account of a blind man whose life changed dramatically through his belief in God.

We were urged to place our trust in the Lord, just as the crippled man who, after *38 years* of waiting, found his healing at the banks of the river. Deacon Joseph assured us that God can grant our deepest desires - be it for a journey, a job, or the blessing of marriage.

The lesson from John 5:1-10 emphasized the profound encounter between the Lord and the crippled man. Today, as we sit before the Lord, we too have the opportunity for a spiritual healing.

In our moments of worship, we sang, "W) y3 MOKO ni ats)l3 Yesu," reminding ourselves that unlike the crippled man, we have Jesus as our Helper. His presence brings about miraculous transformations.

Deacon Joseph encouraged us not to dwell on the length of our struggles. He reassured us that the same Lord who worked miracles in the past is more than capable of doing the same today, tomorrow, and forever. All we need is unwavering faith and hope, just like the blind man.

In our intercession prayer, we collectively sought the Lord's intervention in changing our destinies. Additionally, a seed for destiny change was sown, symbolizing our faith and trust in the Lord's transformative power.

Let us hold fast to this message, dear brothers and sisters, knowing that our Father is capable of changing our destinies. May our faith be steadfast, and our hope unwavering.

In His Grace,
Amen

Verse of the Day 📖
“Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock.”
_MATTHEW 7:24 ESV_

Devotion
On what foundation are you building your life?
In our verse for today Jesus makes use of a number of metaphors. “House” refers to the life of a person; “rock” refers to the teaching of Jesus; and “wise man” refers to any person who builds his or her life on Jesus’ teaching. Jesus’ point, then, is that the only solid foundation upon which to build a life is His teaching.
There are, of course, other foundations upon which you can build your life. The trouble with them, from Jesus’ point of view, is that they’re not “rock.” Any other foundation is, as He goes on to say in verse 26, nothing more than “sand.” You can build your life on a teaching other than Jesus’ teaching, but it won’t be a solid foundation. It won’t stand the test of time. Rock, by its very nature, is a better foundation than sand.
It’s important to note that “rock” refers to what should be the foundation of a person’s life. It does not refer, therefore, to any part that is added on after the house is built. Jesus’ teaching should not be thought of as something less than foundational. We can’t just decorate with this rock. If Jesus’ teaching is the true foundation of a life, then every aspect of this life is anchored to it, and every other teaching will be understood in terms of what Jesus taught.
People are going to come your way with teachings that are different from Jesus’ teaching. They’ll try to get you to start building your life on their foundation rather than Jesus’ foundation. Towards that end, they’ll interpret Jesus’ teaching in terms of their own teaching, distorting them. They may say, for example, that Jesus was just a good man, rather than the Savior of the world. They may say that Jesus was a prophet, but not the Son of God, and they may misinterpret and distort His teachings.
Whatever they say, don’t forget that Jesus’ teaching is the rock — and what His detractors say is mere sand.
Amen."
