2 Samuel 9:3 (KJV), “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."
I know of a poor palm wine taper who couldn't get married because no woman wanted to live with him but who eventually got a job to secure an abandoned government property. Some thieves came to steal from that property, he caught them and something amazing happened. The office of the president called for him and rewarded him with some huge amount of money which he used to purchase a plot of land on which he built a two-bedroom apartment. He also bought himself a motorcycle and has lived on what's left.
Mephibosheth, the subject of today's text was crippled on his feet but found his way to the palace because of the covenant that existed between his father (Jonathan) and the king (David). All he needed to do was agree to the king's invitation.
A covenant has been enacted between God and his Son, Jesus Christ. This covenant has the ability to bring you into God's palace, if you like Mephibosheth will accept Jesus' invitation. It does not matter who you are currently or what people call you, what is important is accepting Jesus' invitation. If you accept his invitation, He will lead you into His Father's palace.
The Psalmist speaking of God said, “Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore" (Psalm 16:11 KJV). Once you've found the path of life, this path will lead you into the place of joy and pleasure.
Go into today knowing that no sin or challenge is too difficult for God to handle if you can find your way to His presence, and this is only possible through His Son, Jesus Christ.
