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 tapper who couldn’t get married because no woman wanted to live with him. Eventually, he secured a job as a caretaker for an abandoned government property. One day, thieves attempted to steal from the property, but he caught them in the act. To his surprise, the office of the president called him and rewarded him with a large sum of money. With this money, he purchased a plot of land, built a two-bedroom apartment, bought himself a motorcycle, and has lived on what was left.
Mephibosheth, the subject of today’s text, was crippled in his feet but found his way to the palace because of the covenant between his father, Jonathan, and King David. All he had to do was accept the king’s invitation.
A covenant has been enacted between God and His Son, Jesus Christ. This covenant can bring you into God’s palace if, like Mephibosheth, you accept Jesus’ invitation. It does not matter who you are or what people call you; what is important is accepting Jesus’ invitation. If you do, He will lead you into His Father’s palace.
The Psalmist speaks of God, saying, “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, it 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 into His presence. This is only possible through His Son, Jesus Christ.If you wish to start receiving Streamglobe Devotional early every day, join our WhatsApp channel through this link: https://chat.whatsapp.com/LFbRirvMpPC1KmzfDpr0bO
