Fr. Emmanuel Megwara, MSP - Homily for Monday Week 30 Ordinary time - October 26, 2020

DATE : 26/10/2020, Monday of the 30th Week in Ordinary Time (A) EVENT : Mass of the Weekday COLOUR : GREEN READINGS : Eph. 4:32-5:8, Resp. Psalm 2:1-4,6; Luke 13:10-17. THEME: I COMMAND WHATEVER THAT HAS HELD YOU DOWN TO RELEASE YOU IN JESUS NAME Greetings beloved people of God. I welcome you to "My Catholic Homily Digest". As this new working begins, in which we celebrate the memorial of great Christian witnesses in our Country, I want to reflect with us on the theme " I Command Whatever that has held you down to Release you in Jesus Name". As a priest of the most high God, I have had encounters with people who have shared with me certain troubling and deep issues. Majority of which I discovered that certain spiritual or physical forces have held them down and bound, preventing them from actualizing their destiny or moving forward in life. Beloved, let me ask you this: Are comfortable with where you are in life now, are you comfortable with the level of your spiritual life, or your academic life, or your physical health, or your financial status or marital life, or single state? Are you under the bondage of a sinful habit that you feel entrapped, or a reoccurring sickness that has defiled all medication, or a gross financial crisis that has become an embarrassment to you, or spiritual laxity that had made you a Christian pagan? Do not worry Jesus Christ has come and He had power to rid you of all these infirmities. Beloved, in the Gospel reading of today, Luke 13:10-17, we heard that Jesus healed the a woman whom the devil has held sick and bound for 18 yrs. Listen to me child of God, the Devil has power to tamper with our spiritual and physical life, but his power is not infinite. That is why When the appointed time comes (Habb. 2:3-4), God will surely bring about our complete healing and shall restore in abundance, whatever we have lost in the years of locusts infestation and satanic bondage (Joel 2:25). Beloved, wherever you are reading this homily in faith on this first day of the week, by the Eucharistic power of Jesus Christ, I command that any and every form of Satanic bondage that has held you captive whether in your financial, spiritual, physical, mental, or academic life, let them be destroyed now that you may be free to live fully the good life God ordained for you in Jesus name. God bless you #End Sars, #End Political Oppression #End Bad Governance #End Satanic bondage Oh that today you would listen to his voice harden not your hearts (Ps.95:7-8) LET US PRAY : Lord Jesus, you grant freedom to those who seek you. Give me freedom to walk in your way of love and to praise and worship you always. Show me how I can bring your mercy and healing love to those in need around me..Amen HAPPY NEW WEEK BELOVED (BARKA DA SABUWAR MAKO) @ Fada Emmanuel Nnamdi Megwara, MSP. ⛪
