WEEKLY DEVOTION WITH ROBERT MUGISA ABWOOLI | 13TH TO 19TH MARCH 2023

 

THE STORM IS OVER NOW | Mark 4:37-39

“… A furious squall came up and the waves broke over the boat, so that it was nearly swamped. Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him and said to him, “Teacher, don’t you care if we drown? He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!” Then the wind died down and it was completely calm…

  • Good morning and welcome to this day and week where we get into a new horizon(s). I request you to take a moment ranging from thirty seconds and above to say “Thank you God, I am alive today! Thank you for my people. Thank you indeed, O Lord.”
  • As we get along with this day and week, we thank God for the positive events of our lives including the celebration of International Women’s Day on 8th March and enthronement on Sunday  12th March 2023 of Rev. Onesmus Asiimwe as the sixth Bishop of North Kigezi Diocese.
  • We remember, stand and pray with/for people who faced and are still facing challenges of different kinds including sickness or loss of loved ones. We remember the family of the late Justice Kenneth Kakuru and other families. May God strengthen and comfort you/them.
  • We pray for healing and mending of the broken-hearted. We pray for families that there shall be peaceful coexistence and calming of every storm that could be resident therein.
  • As a matter of fact, life is real and it moves on. It just depends on how we look at everything and everyone around us. We pick from today’s text to note that as the disciples moved with Jesus, it was a good set off on a journey to go over to the other side… but along the way, a tough storm raged and it was then that they remembered they were with someone who would fix the issue at hand.
  • At individual, family and national level, a storm or storms might be raging and you are wondering who will calm it. For the believers, I share good news with you that God through Christ can calm every storm and people around you will wonder what kind of strength you have on the inside of you! Testify and tell them that it is Christ Jesus.
  • We pray against any form of diversion from the truth of God’s word. We pray that we will live to love one another and to care for each other including bearing and carrying each other’s burden(s) if that is what it shall require.
  • Ultimately, we look forward to a week where God’s grace shall be manifested in our lives. We pray that God connects us to people and personalities who will calm tough situations in our lives today, tomorrow and the days to come.
  • We cancel every evil plot or plan that is fashioned against us. We pray for protection and a covering of God’s Spirit upon each of us; that every time the enemy shall seek to locate us, its signal shall be diverted into several other directions away from us. I pray for my wife and children as points of contact for all spouses and children out there. May God watch over you/them.
  • We declare and proclaim that our storm is over; it was calmed by Christ and so we shall live in peace, sail on/through and see more of God’s goodness in this land of the prosperous.
  • We pray that for everything we think of/about and touch or work upon, it shall advance and prosper. Amen.
  • Wishing you and loved ones the very best in all.

JANUARY TO MARCH 2026: WHAT IF TOMORROW NEVER COMES? ENDURING THROUGH AND THROUGH

Image
I may not be certain of how you are feeling or what exactly you are going through but as a fellow human being, I know that there must be a situation or situations that you could be facing that are either exciting or dismaying. I am placing these thoughts together two days after I attended burial of one of the leaders (Chairman LC1) within my local area who passed away in an accident on Friday February 27, 2026 somewhere, between Luweero and Wobulenzi (as told). When I first got the news, it didn’t occur to me that the name I heard was relating to the person I knew. I can’t tell why I thought it was another person. It happens for the mind. It was not until I went to see one of the engineers in the business center that I got clear information that the person who had passed on was the leader I knew. He was no more! Further information was that the people he was moving with, had also died. Such pain! The past two months of 2026 have been marred with news of deaths here and there. If no...

JUNE INTO JULY | THE BEAUTY OF GOD'S GOODNESS

Image
  Psalm 23:6 | Surely, goodness and mercy shall follow me all my days of my life and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Welcome to the month of July, 2025! June is done just like we went through May, April, March, February and January of this year.  I thank God for this far He has brought each of us and our loved ones (people within our circles). Look or see how far you have come! From the many years past, to the last six months of this year! Isn’t our Creator amazing? He is, very amazing. Over the past, we have experienced both good times on the one hand and challenging times on the other. I believe that all these were for the glory, honor and praise to God. We thank God for the commemorations and celebrations. We rejoice with those who rejoice and stand with those who have faced trials of different kinds. What are you focusing on this season? Who are you dealing with? Who do you intend to deal with? Will the relationship you are in or intending to get into yield...
