Good Friday Morning NDBC Family! Praise GOD! 🙌 Thank You JESUS for a new day of Your grace and new mercies! Another opportunity to glorify Your Holy name above all other names. AMEN!
Morning Scripture Reading comes from Matthew 5:9 (NIV) and it reads: Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of GOD.
Devotional – “Called to Be Peacemakers” As we close this week, we reflect on the journey JESUS has taken us through in the Beatitudes; walking in humility before GOD (Monday), hungering and thirsting for righteousness (Tuesday), extending mercy to others (Wednesday), and pursuing purity of heart (Thursday). Today, JESUS calls us to be peacemakers.
A peacemaker is more than someone who avoids conflict. A peacemaker actively seeks to bring reconciliation, healing, unity, and understanding. In a world filled with division, anger, and confusion, GOD calls His children to reflect His peace. True peace begins with a right relationship with GOD and then extends into our relationships with others…Humility helps us surrender to GOD. A hunger for righteousness draws us closer to Him. Mercy allows us to forgive. Purity of heart keeps our motives right. Together, these qualities prepare us to become peacemakers who reflect the character of CHRIST.
Today, be a peacemaker and allow GOD to use you as an instrument of His love, grace, and peace. AMEN.
Prayer - Most Gracious Eternal Heavenly Father, thank You for being the GOD of peace. LORD, help us to be peacemakers in our homes, workplaces, churches, and communities. In the name of JESUS, give us hearts filled with humility, mercy, purity, and love. Use us to bring encouragement, healing, and unity wherever we go. In JESUS’ mighty name, AMEN 🙏🏾!
Have a blessed, peaceful, and joy-filled Friday! Have a wonderful weekend! GOD Bless You!
