TOPIC : THE FORCE OF GRACE
TEXT 2 SAMUEL 9:1-7
[1]And David said, Is there yet any that is left of the house of Saul, that I may shew him kindness for Jonathan's sake?
[2]And there was of the house of Saul a servant whose name was Ziba. And when they had called him unto David, the king said unto him, Art thou Ziba? And he said, Thy servant is he.
[3]And the king said, Is there not yet any of the house of Saul, that I may shew the kindness of God unto him? And Ziba said unto the king, Jonathan hath yet a son, which is lame on his feet.
[4]And the king said unto him, Where is he? And Ziba said unto the king, Behold, he is in the house of Machir, the son of Ammiel, in Lodebar.
[5]Then king David sent, and fetched him out of the house of Machir, the son of Ammiel, from Lodebar.
[6]Now when Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, was come unto David, he fell on his face, and did reverence. And David said, Mephibosheth. And he answered, Behold thy servant!
[7]And David said unto him, Fear not: for I will surely shew thee kindness for Jonathan thy father's sake, and will restore thee all the land of Saul thy father; and thou shalt eat bread at my table continually.
Mephibosheth was hidden in Lodebar.
Lodebar means no pasture, it means no communication.
People in Lodebar do not hear from God.
They lack His presence.
The Lord in psalm 23 promised us green pasture, but in Lodebar there is no pasture.
Beloved in this new month, God will remove you from your land of Lodebar to the land of His promise and presence in Jesus mighty name.
Grace has already paid the price.
God bless you.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.
Your case is not bigger than God.
May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible
(Please be a blessing to seven persons by sending to them our devotionals)
