TOPIC>>>A SOLDIER OF THE CROSS
MEMORY VERSE
Thou therefore endure hardness,
as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
2 Timothy 2:3
READ
2 Timothy 2:1-7
1 Thou therefore, my son, be
strong in the grace that is in Christ
Jesus.
2 And the things that thou hast
heard of me among many
witnesses, the same commit thou
to faithful men, who shall be able
to teach others also.
3 Thou therefore endure hardness,
as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
4 No man that warreth entangleth
himself with the affairs of this life;
that he may please him who hath
chosen him to be a soldier.
5 And if a man also strive for
masteries, yet is he not crowned,
except he strive lawfully.
6 The husbandman that laboureth
must be first partaker of the fruits.
7 Consider what I say; and the Lord
give thee understanding in all
things.
MESSAGE
I believe that knowledge and
wisdom are crucial to our
greatness in life. Simply put,
knowledge is information that is
censored by intelligence, while
wisdom is the right application of
knowledge. One piece of
knowledge every child of God
should have is the fact that every
sincere Christian is a soldier of the
cross. Christians are combatants,
and we are expected to be
equipped for the battle. Ephesians
6:11 says,
“Put on the whole armour of
God, that ye may be able to
stand against the wiles of the
devil.”
The first group of enemies
Christians wrestle against are
principalities, powers, rulers of the
darkness of this world and spiritual
wickedness in high places
(Ephesians 6:12) . It is our duty as
soldiers of the cross to earnestly
contend for the faith which was
once delivered to the saints (Jude
3) . A saint is holy, and the faith
delivered to the saints is of great
value. Therefore, no evil conduct
must be found or even mentioned
among soldiers of the cross. How
should a soldier of the cross live?
We are to resist the devil (James
4:7) . Resisting an opposing force is
serious business. Whoever will
resist the devil should first and
foremost submit himself or herself
to God. Prioritise only the needful
in your life and let God be your
first priority. As soldiers of the
cross, the principle of proper
prioritisation is relevant to our
growth in Christ. Someone once
said the reason major goals are not
achieved is that we spend our time
doing second things first. Many
Christians find it difficult to make
God their first priority because
petty and mundane matters steal
much of their time. Unfortunately,
many are living for the wrong
things. They fail to know that part
of being wise is to know what to
overlook. If God will be your
Number One, there are many
things you will have to flee from or
refuse to touch. One of such things
is sexual immorality. The scripture
enjoins us to flee fornication (1
Corinthians 6:18) . In the same vein,
we should flee idolatry (1
Corinthians 10:14) . A Christian
soldier knows, as Paul did, that all
things are lawful, but not all things
are expedient. As a soldier of the
cross, it is your duty to be sober,
vigilant and watchful. You should
set your affection on heavenly
things, not on mundane
(Colossians 3:2) . Soldiers of the
cross are the elect of God and
should therefore put on the
attributes of mercy, kindness,
humbleness of mind, meekness
and longsuffering. We should learn
to bear with one another and to
forgive one another. Finally, every
soldier of the cross is expected to
demonstrate the true love of God.
You should also be thankful and
allow the peace of God to rule in
your heart.

MEMORY VERSE
And of the children of Issachar,
which were men that had
understanding of the times, to
know what Israel ought to do;
the heads of them were two
hundred; and all their brethren
were at their commandment.
1 Chronicles 12:32
READ
1 Chronicles 11:11-25
11 And this is the number of the
mighty men whom David had;
Jashobeam, an Hachmonite, the
chief of the captains: he lifted up
his spear against three hundred
slain by him at one time.
12 And after him was Eleazar the
son of Dodo, the Ahohite, who was
one of the three mighties. 13 He
was with David at Pasdammim, and
there the Philistines were gathered
together to battle, where was a
parcel of ground full of barley; and
the people fled from before the
Philistines. 14 And they set
themselves in the midst of that
parcel, and delivered it, and slew
the Philistines; and the LORD saved
them by a great deliverance.
15 Now three of the thirty captains
went down to the rock to David,
into the cave of Adullam; and the
host of the Philistines encamped in
the valley of Rephaim.
16 And David was then in the hold,
and the Philistines' garrison was
then at Bethlehem.
17 And David longed, and said, Oh
that one would give me drink of the
water of the well of Bethlehem,
that is at the gate!
18 And the three brake through the
host of the Philistines, and drew
water out of the well of Bethlehem,
that was by the gate, and took it,
and brought it to David: but David
would not drink of it, but poured it
out to the LORD,
19 And said, My God forbid it me,
that I should do this thing: shall I
drink the blood of these men that
have put their lives in jeopardy? for
with the jeopardy of their lives they
brought it. Therefore he would not
drink it. These things did these
three mightiest.
20 And Abishai the brother of Joab,
he was chief of the three: for lifting
up his spear against three
hundred, he slew them, and had a
name among the three.
21 Of the three, he was more
honourable than the two; for he
was their captain: howbeit he
attained not to the first three.
22 Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the
son of a valiant man of Kabzeel,
who had done many acts; he slew
two lionlike men of Moab: also he
went down and slew a lion in a pit
in a snowy day.
23 And he slew an Egyptian, a man
of great stature, five cubits high;
and in the Egyptian's hand was a
spear like a weaver's beam; and he
went down to him with a staff, and
plucked the spear out of the
Egyptian's hand, and slew him with
his own spear.
24 These things did Benaiah the
son of Jehoiada, and had the name
among the three mighties.
25 Behold, he was honourable
among the thirty, but attained not
to the first three: and David set
him over his guard.
MESSAGE
Success in life, business and
ministry does not come easy.
Success is realising God’s desire for
you and responding obediently in
order to reach your maximum
potential. Attainment of success is
determined by multiple factors, but
it takes a combination of drive,
patience, energy, a ‘can do’
attitude, efficiency and toughness
to be successful. Slothfulness is
one of the worst enemies of
success. Proverbs 18:9 says:
“He also that is slothful in his
work is brother to him that is a
great waster.”
Do you want to be successful in
your chosen field? Be professional
and avoid slothfulness. The two
things that differentiate a
professional from an amateur in
any discipline are: thought patterns
and the order of prioritisation.
Though there is no single
behavioural characteristic alone
that can be said to lead
consistently to success, there
appears to be quite a consistency
of behavioural patterns among
successful people.
For one, all successful people are
intensely interested in their
ventures. They are disciplined,
focused and sincere disciples of
their trade. Moreover, a very
successful person has a feeling of
personal adequacy. They all have
the attribute of “I can do it if I try
hard enough”. In addition,
successful people are hardworking
people. A sense of direction is
another secret of success. A sense
of direction urges action, shapes
action, allows the value of action to
be assessed and allows decisions
to be made more easily. All highly
successful people are both effective
and efficient. They do things right
and manage their time and
resources very efficiently. They
never stand still and expect things
to fall in place. It must be said also
that there can be no success
without the personal attribute of
honesty, sincerity and integrity. All
successful people are goal-setters
and goal-getters. They set short
term goals but more importantly,
long term goals. Another important
trait of successful people is that
they are creative. Success comes as
a result of generating ideas, seeing
things differently, and mobilising
profitable ideas to get results.
Finally, production, enthusiasm
and commitment to make things
happen are critical to success. A
lethargic person who is not
interested in innovation and
production cannot be successful.
Who are you, and how prepared
are you for good success? Are you
a professional or an amateur?
Bible in one year:
1 Samuel 18:17-20:42
Proverbs 6:28-7:9
Action Point:
Outstanding success is of God
and mediocrity is not
righteousness. Pray and plan to
be successful in your chosen
profession.

TOPIC>>>>SOCIAL DEVIANTS!
MEMORY VERSE
Wherein they think it strange
that ye run not with them to the
same excess of riot, speaking
evil of you:
1 Peter 4:4
READ
Acts 17:5-9
5 But the Jews which believed not,
moved with envy, took unto them
certain lewd fellows of the baser
sort, and gathered a company, and
set all the city on an uproar, and
assaulted the house of Jason, and
sought to bring them out to the
people.
6 And when they found them not,
they drew Jason and certain
brethren unto the rulers of the city,
crying, These that have turned the
world upside down are come
hither also;
7 Whom Jason hath received: and
these all do contrary to the decrees
of Caesar, saying that there is
another king, one Jesus.
8 And they troubled the people
and the rulers of the city, when
they heard these things.
9 And when they had taken security
of Jason, and of the other, they let
them go.
MESSAGE
A Christian can be described as a
little Christ. While on earth, Christ
exhibited integrity in all His
utterances and actions. He said His
children would do greater works.
Are you born-again? Are you a true
child of God? With self-discipline
and appropriate preparation, you
can become effective in exhibiting
integrity. Integrity as a way of life
and our effectiveness in every field
depends on the measure of our
preparation. The more prepared we
are, the more effective we become.
Therefore, to become effective in
exhibiting integrity, you must be
prepared.
God’s standard for His children is
perfection (Matthew 5:48) . It is
pathetic to note that many
societies lack integrity. In a society
where integrity has become a
scarce commodity, a person of
integrity is sometimes seen as a
social deviant. Occasionally, efforts
are made by bad elements of such
societies to neutralise his or her
influence. This can be by subtle or
outright persecution, imposition or
sanctions, or by a collective effort
to undermine his or her
personality. History confirms
however that a person of integrity
is always a winner. Why? He or she
is consistent and credible. Are you
a person of integrity? Credibility
defines integrity. The benefit of
integrity is confidence and the
ability to influence others
positively. The more credible you
are, the more confidence people
place in you, thereby granting you
the privilege of influencing their
lives. The contrast is also true. The
less credible you are as a person,
the less confidence people place in
you, and the more quickly you lose
your position of influence. Are you
a Christian leader? The secret to
rising and not falling is integrity.
Integrity is germane to your
success in ministry. There is no
denying the fact that the more
credible you are, the long your
staying power and the more
successful your ministry will be. In
the sane vein, the less credible you
are, the shorter your staying power
and the less successful your
ministry will be. Every leader needs
integrity because it builds trust. A
man must have followers in order
to be a leader. In order to have
followers, a leader must have their
confidence. Hence, the supreme
quality of a leader is
unquestionably integrity. Without
it, no real success is possible,
whether it is in a church, on a
football field, in an army barrack
or in an office. If a man’s
associates find him guilty of being
a phony, if they find out that he
lacks forthright integrity, he will
fail. Your teachings and actions
must square up with each other.
Society may see them as deviants
but the first great need of a
Christian leader is integrity and
high purpose. Are you viewed as a
social deviant? Don’t lose your
integrity.
Bible in one year:
1 Samuel 17:1-18:16
Proverbs 6:16-27
Key point:
A man’s character determines
the character of his organisation.
Be a person of integrity.

TOPIC>>>INTEGRITY
MEMORY VERSE
Bring forth therefore fruits meet
for repentance.
Matthew 3:8
READ
Matthew 7:15-20
15 Beware of false prophets, which
come to you in sheep's clothing,
but inwardly they are ravening
wolves.
16 Ye shall know them by their
fruits. Do men gather grapes of
thorns, or figs of thistles? 17 Even
so every good tree bringeth forth
good fruit; but a corrupt tree
bringeth forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth
evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree
bring forth good fruit.
19 Every tree that bringeth not
forth good fruit is hewn down, and

20 Wherefore by their fruits ye
shall know them.
MESSAGE
It is pathetic but true: integrity is a
scarce commodity nowadays. The
unvarnished truth is that almost all
nations parade those who plead
guilty to fraud, conspiracy to
obstruct justice, immoralities,
perjury, making of false statements
and other criminal acts. Modern
society is in dire need of people of
integrity. A person is identified by
his or her integrity. Matthew 7:16
says:
“Ye shall know them by their
fruits. Do men gather grapes of
thorns, or figs of thistles?”
What is integrity? Integrity can be
defined as steadfast adherence to
a strict moral or ethical code. It is
a state of being unimpaired of
soundness; the quality of being
whole or having undivided
completeness. Integrity is a
synonym for honesty. It manifests
itself as what is called
incorruptibility, Are you corrupt or
incorruptible? Are you a man or
woman of integrity? There are
certain things to note about
integrity. First, integrity is a skill: it
is a practical skill. It is the ability to
practice honesty and to exhibit
moral courage in all ramifications.
As with all skills, integrity is
developed and learned over time.
Integrity is a trait that is taught and
learned over an entire lifetime. We
need men and women of integrity
in our society. Integrity can be
integrated into a society through
sound ideological precepts and
practices. Secondly, integrity is a
guideline, a benchmark, point of
reference or a goal that is used to
make decisions based on truth and
honesty. To maintain integrity, a
person must remember to refer to
truth and honesty in all decisions,
thoughts, actions and reactions.
Thirdly, integrity can be described
as a great tower. It is something
that a person builds and maintains
over a lifetime. May I ask: when will
you begin to build your own tower
of integrity? Fourthly, integrity can
be considered as a seed. It is
planted in childhood, watered in
youth and blossoms in adulthood.
The more a person waters this
seed throughout life, the more it
grows and blossoms. Just as it is
with plants, if integrity is neglected
at any point, it will wither and die.
Integrity requires constant
maintenance. A man or woman of
integrity can be likened to a janitor.
As a janitor cleans and straightens
rooms for a living, a person of
integrity should maintain true
integrity through daily assessment
in moral and financial probity. The
fifth point to note is that integrity is
delicate. If care is not taken,
integrity can be eroded, lost or
compromised beyond recognition
in a person’s life. Integrity means
what a person says and what he or
she does are the same; the results
are consistent. Are you a person of
integrity?
Bible in one year:
1 Samuel 14:47-16:23
Proverbs 6:1-15
Action Point:
Resolve to maintain integrity in
all your thoughts, utterances and
actions from today.

TOPIC>>>>>ARE YOU A SPIRITUAL LEADER?
MEMORY VERSE
This is a true saying, If a man
desire the office of a bishop, he
desireth a good work.
1 Timothy 3:1,
READ
Mark 10:35-44
35 And James and John, the sons of
Zebedee, come unto him, saying,
Master, we would that thou
shouldest do for us whatsoever we
shall desire.
36 And he said unto them, What
would ye that I should do for you?
37 They said unto him, Grant unto
us that we may sit, one on thy right
hand, and the other on thy left
hand, in thy glory.
38 But Jesus said unto them, Ye
know not what ye ask: can ye drink
of the cup that I drink of? and be
baptized with the baptism that I
am baptized with?
39 And they said unto him, We can.
And Jesus said unto them, Ye shall
indeed drink of the cup that I drink
of; and with the baptism that I am
baptized withal shall ye be
baptized:
40 But to sit on my right hand and
on my left hand is not mine to give;
but it shall be given to them for
whom it is prepared.
41 And when the ten heard it, they
began to be much displeased with
James and John.
42 But Jesus called them to him,
and saith unto them, Ye know that
they which are accounted to rule
over the Gentiles exercise lordship
over them; and their great ones
exercise authority upon them.
43 But so shall it not be among
you: but whosoever will be great
among you, shall be your minister:
44 And whosoever of you will be
the chiefest, shall be servant of all.
MESSAGE
Leadership is a subject everyone
talks about. It’s a pity however that
only few understand it. Most
people want to be leaders but only
few achieve it. What is leadership?
What is spiritual leadership? It can
be deduced from today’s bible
reading that spiritual leadership is
not the same as inordinate
ambition. Inordinate ambition
denotes canvassing for promotion
with the motive of being seen and
approved of by men. Such a
person desires to be popular, to
stand tall among one’s
contemporaries and to exercise
control over others. It is perilous to
put an ambitious man in office.
Ambitious men enjoy the powers
that money or authority gives. They
lobby for promotion and are
carnally minded. This kind of
attitude is strongly discouraged by
the scriptures (1 Peter 5:2-3) . God
and men are constantly searching
for leaders who are willing to
suffer for the objectives great
enough to demand their
wholehearted obedience. There is a
rising need for leadership that is
authoritative, spiritual and
sacrificial. Spiritual leadership is
not won by promotion but by
many prayers and tears. It is
attained by confession of sin, soul
searching and a humble attitude
before God. It is attained by self-
surrender, a courageous
elimination of every idol, a bold,
undying, uncompromising and
uncomplaining embrace of the
cross, and also by an eternal,
unfaltering focus on Jesus Christ. It
is not gained by seeking great
things for ourselves, but rather by
counting all things as loss for
Christ. Are you a spiritual leader?
Follow the Master’s master
principles for effective leadership.
What are the Master’s master
principles for effective leadership?
The first is the principle of
dependence. Jesus voluntarily
emptied Himself, surrendering His
privileges and the independent
exercise of His will to God. His
dependence upon the Father was
voluntary (Philippians 2:7) .
Secondly, there is the principle of
approval. Jesus was approved of
God. To excel as a spiritual leader,
you need the approval of the
Almighty (Acts 2:22) . The third
principle is the principle of
modesty. Christ was modest. A
spiritual leader should not be
strident and flamboyant, but
modest and unassuming. Fourthly,
we have the principle of empathy.
Leadership involves being
sympathetic and understanding
with the weak and erring. The fifth
principle is the principle of
optimism. Jesus was full of faith.
Leadership requires hope and
optimism since a true servant of
God battles with powers of
darkness. A pessimist cannot make
an inspiring leader. The sixth
principle is the principle of the
anointing. Christ was anointed with
the Holy Ghost and power.
Leadership requires a touch of the
supernatural (Acts 10:38) .
Bible in one year:
1 Samuel 13:8-14:46
Proverbs 5:7-23
Action Point:
Decide to follow the Master’s
master principles for effective
leadership today.

M£SSAGE
One of the worst enemies of
progress in life, business and
ministry is procrastination. To
procrastinate is to put off a
currently required action until a
future time. It means to defer or to
postpone. Procrastination is an
attitudinal problem. It is a
character flaw that affects millions
of people in every walk of life.
While it is regarded as normal for
people to procrastinate, it can
become a problem that hinders
progress in life. It affects critical
decisions such as accepting Jesus
Christ as Lord and Saviour and
many other important things. It is
dangerous for a Christian to
procrastinate because
procrastination can result in loss of
fellowship and opportunities. It
can also cause loss of souls which
should have been won. The
dangerous effect of procrastination
is lamented in Jeremiah 8:20:
“The harvest is past, the summer
is ended, and we are not saved.”
There are many reasons why
people procrastinate. First is
because of their personal
convenience(Acts 24:25) . This is a
major reason many people fail in
life, education, business, family
and ministry. It is also the reason
many do not give their lives to
Christ immediately they hear the
word of God. „Laziness is another
reason for procrastination
(Proverbs 26:13-16) . Many people
put off indefinitely what they could
have done presently as a result of
indolence. A slothful man has
many flimsy excuses for
procrastinating. These range from
imaginary fear to complaints that
he or she lacks encouragement.
Another reason for procrastination
is worldly entanglements (Genesis
19:16 , Matthew 19:20-22 ).
Consideration of family pressure at
the expense of God’s business
could lead to procrastination of
God’s business. A reader of this
devotional, who has the call of God
upon his life, finds it difficult to
surrender his all to God and go
into full-time ministry because of
family pressure. God should be
topmost on your scale of
preference at all times. Family
pressure, as serious as it could be,
should not be considered at the
expense of God’s business. Learn a
lesson from Elisha. As soon as the
mantle fell on him, he ran after
Elijah, turning his back on his
family business (1 Kings 19:19-20) .
Another cause of procrastination is
environmental distractions.
Procrastination can be solved
through proper planning and
constant reminders„(Luke 4:28) .
Priorities should be set right. Self-
discipline could also help against
procrastination when applied in
areas such as eating, talking,
watching TV or movies, use of
telephones and other sources of
distractions. It is always better to
seize the moment and maximize
every given opportunity to
complete tasks and achieve goals.
Bible in one year:
1 Samuel 10:17-13:7
Proverbs 4:20-5:6
Key point:
The best way to do things is to do
them at the proper time. Stop
procrastinating.

turn to their family. Some turn to
witch doctors while others turn to
idols. Some even turn to false
prophets. In 1 Kings 18:26-29 , the
Bible tells us how some people
called on the idol of Baal, but he
did not hear them. Do not turn to
idols that have mouths but cannot
speak. Do not put your trust in a
man of God. Put your trust in God
only. The moment you trust in the
prayers and powers of man, you
are putting a curse on yourself
(Jeremiah 17:5) . Those who trust in
the Lord when trouble arises are
the ones who triumph. Long after
the trouble is gone, they will still
be standing (Psalm 125:1-2) . It is
only the Almighty God that is
available at all times. Once in a
while, we find ourselves in a
situation where there seems to be
no way out. If you are a true child
of God, there is always a way out.
God will make a way where there
seems to be no way. Where there
seems to be no way, turn to the
One who is the Way, and He will
take you through locked doors, as
He did in the case of Peter in Acts
12:10 .
Whenever you call on the Almighty
God, He does not delay in
answering. There is only one
reason why you may call and He
will not answer; that is if there is
sin in your life and you refuse to
let go of that sin. David said in
Psalm 138:3:
“In the day when I cried thou
answeredst me, and
strengthenedst me with strength
in my soul.”
This is the way of God. God does
not delay. He does not enjoy
seeing His people in poverty,
sickness or sorrow. He does not
want you to suffer. If you let go of
sin, there is no reason why your
prayer will not be answered
immediately. In today’s Bible
reading, twice the Lord says to you:
“Fear not”. This can mean several
things. It could mean that there is
something that can produce fear
but the Almighty God is saying that
you should not pay attention to it.
Fear comes from something you
can see or hear. In 2 Corinthians
5:7 , the Bible says we walk by faith
and not by sight. In other words,
we refuse to look at things that
bring fright. Faith also comes by
what we hear (Romans 10:17) .
When others are bringing their evil
reports from the devil, you are to
hear the report of the Lord. You
will have to decide on which one to
choose. The report of the Lord is
that, with Him, nothing shall be
impossible. Therefore fear not.

TOPIC>>>THE NEXT LEVEL
Memorise:
And whosoever shall exalt
himself shall be abased; and he
that shall humble himself shall
be exalted.
Matthew 23:12
READ
Psalm 40:1-3
1 I waited patiently for the LORD;
and he inclined unto me, and
heard my cry.
2 He brought me up also out of an
horrible pit, out of the miry clay,
and set my feet upon a rock, and
established my goings.
3 And he hath put a new song in
my mouth, even praise unto our
God: many shall see it, and fear,
and shall trust in the LORD.
MESSAGE
The world operates at various
levels, so do the people living in it.
When we talk about health, there
are those who are healthy, there
are those who are sick, there are
those who are seriously sick and
there are those who are dying.
When we talk about wealth, there
is the destitute, the poor, the
comfortable, the rich, the very rich,
the wealthy, and the flourishing.
The flourishing are those who
according to the Bible, can afford
to lend to nations. There are also
those who have such abundance
that it is difficult to imagine. In 2
Chronicles 1:15 , we read that in
the days of Solomon, silver and
gold were like stones. When we
talk about joy, there are also
various levels of joy: there are
those who are sad, there are
sympathizers, there are those who
have joy and those with great joy,
there is the fullness of joy available
in the presence of God (Psalm
16:11) , and then there is “joy
unspeakable” (1 Peter 1: .
Similarly, there are various levels of
victory. There is victory obtained
from a fight, there is victory
obtained without a fight, there is
victory where the enemy
miraculously disappears. Then,
Psalm 23:5 reveals another
dimension of victory:
“Thou preparest a table before
me in the presence of mine
enemies: thou anointest my head
with oil; my cup runneth over.”
There is nothing as glorious as
rejoicing before incapacitated
enemies while they watch.
We have seen that there are
different levels with respect to
different things in this world, and
that everyone is at one level or the
other. It doesn’t matter what your
current level is, there is a higher
level you can go to. The question
you should therefore ask yourself
is: “How do I move to the next
level?” There are three possible
scenarios you may encounter when
trying to move from one level to
another. First, you may try to move
to the next level unassisted.
Secondly, you may move to the
next level assisted. In the third
scenario, you may be resisted while
trying to move to the next level.
Those trying to move to the next
level unassisted will face problems
because you need a hand to help
you up. You need Jesus to get to
the next level, and He is ready to
help you if you will surrender your
life to Him. If God decides to assist
you, He can take you from the
prison to the throne in one night
as He did for Joseph in the Bible. If
you get assistance from the devil,
you will pay dearly for it. But when
God is the one assisting you, the
sky is not your limit; you will go
beyond the sky. Thus, surrender
your life to Christ now so that He
can take you to the next level.
Bible in one year:
1 Samuel 6:1-8:18
Proverbs 3:28-4:9
Action Point:
Think of the next level you will
attain to make stagnation
become history in your life; then
call on the Name of Jesus for
divine assistance.

TOPIC><<<CHILDREN OF LIGHT OR
DARKNESS?
MEMORY VERSE
Love not the world, neither the
things that are in the world. If
any man love the world, the love
of the Father is not in him.
1 John 2:15
READ
1 Thessalonians 5:4-10
4 But ye, brethren, are not in
darkness, that that day should
overtake you as a thief.
5 Ye are all the children of light,
and the children of the day: we are
not of the night, nor of darkness.
6 Therefore let us not sleep, as do
others; but let us watch and be
sober.
7 For they that sleep sleep in the
night; and they that be drunken are
drunken in the night. 8 But let us,
who are of the day, be sober,
putting on the breastplate of faith
and love; and for an helmet, the
hope of salvation.
9 For God hath not appointed us to
wrath, but to obtain salvation by
our Lord Jesus Christ,
10 Who died for us, that, whether
we wake or sleep, we should live
together with him.
MESSAGE
It is unfortunate to observe that
sobriety is no longer a common
feature in the lives of many twenty-
first century believers. Instead, the
characteristics of the night or
darkness are the common
trademarks of many so-called
Christians. Apostle Paul in 1
Thessalonians 5:6 does not only
admonish us to be sober-minded,
he also warns us to beware of the
sleep of death. We should not
engage in spiritual slumbering, so
that the coming of the Day of the
Lord may not catch us unawares.
We should not engage in the works
of darkness as he enjoined us in
Ephesians 5:4-5:
“Neither filthiness, nor foolish
talking, nor jesting, which are
not convenient: but rather giving
of thanks. For this ye know, that
no whoremonger, nor unclean
person, nor covetous man, who is
an idolater, hath any inheritance
in the kingdom of Christ and of
God.”
Why do we have thieves in the
Church today? Why are harlots
singing in the choir? Why are extra-
marital wanderings common
among the laity and the clergy? The
answer is not far-fetched: children
of light are becoming children of
darkness. Also, children of
darkness are disguising as children
of light. Furthermore, the children
of light are making the spiritual
environment (the Church) too
comfortable for evil doers. The love
towards the ungodly that they may
be saved has been overstretched
to the point of deadly compromise.
Sobriety is no longer popular. If
you live soberly nowadays, you
belong to the “old school”. You are
looked upon as an idiot if you
refuse to be fraudulent to get rich.
Worse still, when you cannot dole
money out like those who are
fraudulent, you are
inconsequential. How can we get
out of our spiritual black-out? The
answer is simple; the Bible says,
“Be not ye therefore partakers
with them. For ye were
sometimes darkness, but now
are ye light in the Lord: walk as
children of light:”
Ephesians 5:7-8
The Bible also says that the night is
far spent and the day is at hand.
As a matter of fact, the Day of the
Lord is at hand. So let us walk like
children of light (Romans 13:12-14)
. May the second coming of the
Lord not catch you unawares in
Jesus’ Name.
Bible in one year:
1 Samuel 3-5
Proverbs 3:13-27

Father, please give me the spirit
of vigilance so that the coming
of the Lord may not catch me

TOPIC>>>KNOW YOUR CALLING
MEMORY VERSE
Let every man abide in the same calling wherein
he was called.
1 Corinthians 7:20
READ
1 Corinthians 12:1-7
1 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would
not have you ignorant.
2 Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away
unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led.
3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no
man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus
accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is
the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.
4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same
Spirit.
5 And there are differences of administrations, but
the same Lord.
6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is
the same God which worketh all in all.
7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to
every man to profit withal.
MESSAGE
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, wrote to tell us
in today’s Bible reading that he would not want
us to be ignorant of the truth concerning our
calling as children and workers in the vineyard. It
is needless to emphasise the danger of ignorance
as stated in Hosea 4:6 . Our Lord Jesus Christ
also emphasised the importance of knowing the
truth for perfect freedom when in John 8:32 He
said:
“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall
make you free.”
In other words, falsehood can hold people captive!
In Proverbs 22:29 , we read that a man who is
diligent in business shall stand before kings. In
what business did the Bible refer to? In his own
business of course! What happens if a person is
found in other people’s business? No doubt, it will
be an exercise in futility or an unprofitable
venture. You have to be diligent in your own
business, which is where you will be rewarded.
The Bible in Songs of Solomon 1:6 says:
“Look not upon me, because I am black, because
the sun hath looked upon me: my mother's
children were angry with me; they made me the
keeper of the vineyards; but mine own vineyard
have I not kept.”
Take to heart the following lessons from today’s
Bible reading. First, it is possible for Christians to
be ignorant of facts about spiritual gifts.
Secondly, there are many gifts in the body of
Christ, but no one can or should lay claim to
having all of the gifts. Thirdly, it is the Holy Spirit
who distributes gifts to every believer as He
chooses. Fourthly, as there are differences in the
administration of gifts, so also is there division of
labour among those these gifts are administered
to. A believer should therefore beware of
arrogating all the activities in the Church to
himself because it will be counter-productive.
Fifth, though there are differences in operations
from believer to believer, the same Holy Spirit
works in all genuine believers. Sixth, the Holy
Spirit gives different assignments to different
believers to profit with. This means the gift is for
the edification of the Body of Christ. It is not for
the fun of it that believers are endowed with one
gift or the other; neither is it for self-gratification.
The seventh lesson is that no gift is superior to
another; neither is there any inferior to another.
For this reason, Paul further wrote to warn us
against discriminating in the use of spiritual gifts
(1 Corinthians 12:15-17) . Therefore beloved, let
us work together as many members, but as one
indivisible Body of Christ, with everyone playing
his or her role as enabled by the Lord. We shall
not miss our reward in Jesus’ Name.
Bible in one year:
1 Samuel 1-2
Proverbs 2:20-3:12
Action Point:
Examine your life and find out what area of the
ministry the Lord has endowed you with gifts for.
Dedicate yourself and be diligent in it.

davidiee: my brother it was painful to us in anatomy then. We were promised switching over, but when we got to year 3 that problem surfaced, and after seriously protesting, we were not allowed to switch. So I graduated and went for service in 2011. In 2012 shortly after my service I applied for MSc in Benin, but in October my fire for MBBS ignited and I took a jamb form for 2013/2014. I scored 293 in jamb only to disappoint myself with 59 in post ume. I thanked God, smiled to myself and decided to move on. then waited for November to be among the first set of people to buy 2014/2015 jamb form, this time around I opted for Ebonyi state university Abakaliki. But in this year jamb, I scored 237 and felt I disappointed myself a bit, but I moved on and prepared for their post ume where I scored 279 and was admitted on merit to study MBBS. I wasn't filled with emotions when I saw it but I had this feeling of satisfaction that my patience payer off.

TOPIC:CONSISTENT CHRISTIAN LIVING
MEMORY VERSE
Abide in me, and I in you. As the
branch cannot bear fruit of
itself, except it abide in the vine;
no more can ye, except ye abide
in me.
John 15:4
READ
John 15:4-8
4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the
branch cannot bear fruit of itself,
except it abide in the vine; no
more can ye, except ye abide in
me.
5 I am the vine, ye are the
branches: He that abideth in me,
and I in him, the same bringeth
forth much fruit: for without me ye
can do nothing.
6 If a man abide not in me, he is
cast forth as a branch, and is
withered; and men gather them,
and cast them into the fire, and
they are burned.
7 If ye abide in me, and my words
abide in you, ye shall ask what ye
will, and it shall be done unto you.
8 Herein is my Father glorified, that
ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be
my disciples.
MESSSAGE
.Today’s scripture reveals a great
secret of not only fruitfulness but
also of God being with us.
Emmanuel is not real to many so-
called children of God because they
are on their own. This is why they
are caught in many horrible acts,
and terrible things attend to their
daily living. This scripture reveals
the part we need to play for us to
experience God as the present help
in times of need (Psalm 46:1) . He
has promised not to leave nor
forsake us. We must remember
that the Almighty God is forever
faithful. Though the world may
deny Him, He cannot deny Himself.
Though the world may be
unfaithful, He remains faithful to
His words and even to His creation!
What is our part in this bargain?
We must abide in Him. In other
words, we must consistently live
our lives as Christians. We should
never take a break from living holy.
In light of this revealed truth, it is
pertinent for all children of God
who want to enjoy the presence of
Emmanuel, to abide in Him so that
the ever-willing Heavenly Father
may be with them. How do we
abide in Him? Ecclesiastes 12:13
says:
“Let us hear the conclusion of
the whole matter: Fear God, and
keep his commandments: for this
is the whole duty of man.”
We must fear God and keep His
commandments. Today, some
people overstretch the grace we
enjoy in the New Testament.
Mischievously, they often say that
we are no longer under the
dispensation of the law, hence they
can now do whatever they like.
They seem to be saying: “Let us
commit sin the more so that we
can make maximum use of the
available grace!” They are ‘practical
atheists’ who believe in God with
their mouths but fail to
acknowledge Him and His Holiness.
They do not see Him as the
Consuming Fire. Paul in Romans
6:15 asked:
“What then? shall we sin,
because we are not under the
law, but under grace? God
forbid.”
When we experience God as “God
with us”, this attracts multiple
blessings. One of these is the
opportunity to pray and receive
instant answers to our prayers.
Jesus in John 15:7 said:
“If ye abide in me, and my words
abide in you, ye shall ask what
ye will, and it shall be done unto
you.”
Thus, let us abide in Him because
He is willing to make His abode
with us and give us comfort.

No fewer than eight operators of illegal
universities across the country, which have
been closed, are being prosecuted, the
National Universities Commission (NUC)
says.
The illegal universities were published in
NUC’s weekly bulletin and made available
to the media on Wednesday in Abuja.
The publication, signed by NUC’s Executive
Secretary, Prof. Julius Okojie, listed the
institutions as National University of
Nigeria, Keffi, Nasarawa State and North
Central University, Otukpo, Benue State.
Others are Christ Alive Christian Seminary
and University, Enugu; Richmond Open
University, Arochukwu; Abia State; West
Coast University, Umuahia; and Saint
Clements University, Iyin Ekiti, Ekiti State.
The list also includes Volta University
College, Aba, Abia State as well as the
illegal satellite campuses of Ambrose Alli
University.
In addition to the closure, the following
`Degree Mills’ are currently undergoing
court actions; the purpose of these actions
is to prosecute the proprietors and recover
illegal fees and charges on subscribers.
For the avoidance of doubt, anybody who
patronises or obtains any certificate from
any of these illegal institutions does so at
his or her own risk.
“Certificates obtained from these sources
will not be recognised for the purposes of
NYSC, employment and further studies.’’
The bulletin also listed 55 illegal
universities which had not been licenced
and were closed down for violating the
Education Act of 2004.
NUC recently handed over two alleged fake
professors to the police for prosecution.

TOPIC:DEFEATIST VOICE
MEMORY VERSE
And Caleb stilled the people
before Moses, and said, Let us go
up at once, and possess it; for we
are well able to overcome it.
Numbers 13:30
READ
1 Samuel 17:33-39
33 And Saul said to David, Thou art
not able to go against this
Philistine to fight with him: for
thou art but a youth, and he a man
of war from his youth.
34 And David said unto Saul, Thy
servant kept his father's sheep,
and there came a lion, and a bear,
and took a lamb out of the flock:
35 And I went out after him, and
smote him, and delivered it out of
his mouth: and when he arose
against me, I caught him by his
beard, and smote him, and slew
him.
36 Thy servant slew both the lion
and the bear: and this
uncircumcised Philistine shall be as
one of them, seeing he hath defied
the armies of the living God.
37 David said moreover, The LORD
that delivered me out of the paw of
the lion, and out of the paw of the
bear, he will deliver me out of the
hand of this Philistine. And Saul
said unto David, Go, and the LORD
be with thee.
38 And Saul armed David with his
armour, and he put an helmet of
brass upon his head; also he
armed him with a coat of mail.
39 And David girded his sword
upon his armour, and he assayed
to go; for he had not proved it.
And David said unto Saul, I cannot
go with these; for I have not
proved them. And David put them
off him.
MESSAGE
A backslider is known by his or her
language. When you listen to the
vocabulary of someone who is no
longer with God, you will know very
quickly that the fellow is a
backslider. King Saul had become a
backslider when he met David and
God had already rejected him.
When the problem of Goliath came,
as big as he was, he could not
stand before Goliath (1 Samuel
10:23) . He felt that since he could
not face Goliath, this would be true
of everyone else. He however
received the shock of his life when
David showed up. For somebody
reading this devotional, the Lord
will make you a standard where
others have compromised, in Jesus’
Name. In Numbers 13:31-33 , we
have the story of the ten spies.
When they came back from the
land flowing with milk and honey,
they said “The land is good;
however, we cannot take it because
of the presence of giants there”.
Backsliders always think negatively.
There are people who for example
believe it is possible to enjoy divine
health all the days of one’s life.
There are some people who believe
God cannot supply all of their
needs without the need to cut
corners or play smart. Whenever
you hear someone saying “We
cannot go forward, let us go back”,
you should know you are listening
to a backslider. Whenever someone
decides to change from doing good
to doing the opposite, the person
has backslidden.
You must stay away from anything
that can annoy God. The more you
see His miracles in your life, the
closer you must draw to Him.
When you separate yourself from
God, you will see how vulnerable
you can be. You will not be a
victim of situation and
circumstances in Jesus’ Name.
Caleb followed God fully and
therefore he could say “We are
able”. The song of the steadfast is
always full of words like: “I can do
it”, “It is possible”, “There is hope”,
“I know with God on my side, there
is no mountain I cannot climb”.
When a man is in contact with God,
he sees problems as stepping
stones to testimonies. Everyone
who is linked with God will be able
to say as Paul said in Philippians
4:13:
“I can do all things through
Christ which strengtheneth me.”
Those who are close to God are
always singing songs of victory in
the face of trouble. They will prefer
to go through fire than to bow to
compromise, because they know
they can’t burn.
