Focus: When the Period of Night Endures

WORD FOR TODAY
There is so much anguish, sadness, and weeping when the period of the night of a man's life endures. However, the implication of the endurance of the night is the reception of a new dawn of God's Glory!!!
************************
Scriptural Reference
"Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning." (Psalm 30:5b AMP)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Everyday is characterized by both night and day. In your life time you will not but experience these two seasons of life. When the period of the night comes, it comes with several terrible experiences but the fact still remains that the reception of a new dawn puts an end to the period of the night.

The Lord is very much aware of every situation you are passing through and have devised a plan to put an end to every terrible issue in your life and bring you into the lime light of His glory. In this season the Lord will put an end to every night experience of your life and usher you into a new dawn of His glory.

The Lord is only displeased with whoever sins or living in sin but His mercy is available each time he forsakes his sins!!!
************************

"For His anger is but for a moment, but His favor is for a lifetime or in His favor is life. Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. (Psalm 30:5 AMP)

Once you are still committing sin the Lord is not happy with you. At every point in time, He is waiting for you to get things right. Irrespective of how terrible your ways of life may appear to be, the Lord has not given up on you. He is looking forward for you to repent.

At any point in your life if you will decide to turn to God, His mercy is available for you. No matter how terrible the injury you have sustained, you will be made whole and come into a season of rejoicing if you turn to Him.

Focus: Eternity with God in View

WORD FOR TODAY
No one actually has a guarantee or a promise for tomorrow. Eternity is not ahead of any man but walks in parallel to every human life - Daniel Kolenda
************************
Scriptural Reference
" Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit", yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. (James 4.13-14 NKJV)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Everything about life may not be certain but our transition from earth to eternity is something we cannot bargain. It can happen to anyone at any time. It is a pity that several men who have concrete plan for years to come are no more today. Many died pursuing the fulfillment of their aspirations.

Every man irrespective of who he is can be called to answer the call to eternity because it walks in parallel with our lives. Therefore, be mindful of God in all you do and submit to His will at all times so as not to meet your Saviour unprepared.

You must decide to live for God all the days of your life because this is the sole aim or purpose of your creation. More so, death caught majority of those who died unawares.
________________________________
Question For Meditation:
+ Are you prepared for eternity?

Prayer Point:
Lord! Help me to live for you every moment of my life in Jesus name. Amen!!!

Main Emphasis:
Eternity is very much closer to you like your shadow, It is required for you to live for God every moment of your life!!!

Christianity Etc › Sorrow Turned To Joy by jonatoye(op): 7:19am On Apr 03, 2018
~~~Daily Spiritual Digest~~~
________________________________
[03-04-2018]

Focus: Sorrow Turned to Joy

WORD FOR TODAY
This life is characterized by both sorrow and joy. However, in every situation of life be mindful of the fact that the Lord has guaranteed that your sorrow will turn to joy!!!!
************************
Scriptural Reference
"I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, that you shall weep and grieve, but the world will rejoice. You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy." (John 16:20 AMP)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There is no anointing that can exempt you from the sorrow associated with this life. It is an outright deception when you are told that you will never have sorrow in life. At a point in destiny our Lord was sorrowful. His disciples became sorrowful when He was crucified but their sorrow turned to joy at His resurrection.

Irrespective of what you are passing through, the Lord has already said you will weep and grief over situations of life but He also declared that your sorrow will turn to joy. It doesn't matter if people are rejoicing over the situation of your life, the major issue is that by the virtue of the resurrection of Christ from death you will resurrect from every sorrowful situation of life.
________________________________
Question For Meditation:
+ Do you still believe in your resurrection?

Prayer Point:
Lord! Turn my mourning into dancing; remove my sackcloth and clothed me with joy in Jesus name. Amen!!!

Main Emphasis:
No matter how sorrowful the conditions of your life may appear to be, the fact still remains that God has made a provision for joy over all sorrow!!!

Christianity Etc › Weep For Yourself by jonatoye(op): 7:49am On Apr 02, 2018
~~~Daily Spiritual Digest~~~
________________________________
[02-04-2018]

Focus: Weep For Yourself

WORD FOR TODAY
Jesus came and fulfilled the purpose of His coming which is to save all mankind from their sins. The major issue about your own life is if you also will fulfill the purpose of your coming in this perverse generation!!!
************************
Scriptural Reference
"But Jesus, turning to them, said, "Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for Me, but weep for yourselves and for your children." (Luke 23:28 NKJV)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When the women of Jerusalem saw how Jesus was beaten and His suffering in a build up to His crucifixion they cried their heart out. The Lord told them not to cry for Him but for themselves and their Children because as far as He is concerned He is fulfilling the purpose of His coming. His death afterwards is also part of the plan.

In this generation, there is a need for critical evaluation of our lives and the way we live because many people are not even close to fulfilling the purpose of their creation. We are the ones that know the will of God but choose to do otherwise. We are too busy and unavailable to live sacrificially to render quality service to God and humanity. We need to take heed and live to please Him now that we have the grace to do so.
________________________________
Question For Meditation:
+ Do you live to fulfill the purpose of your creation?

Prayer Point:
Lord! I receive the grace to fulfill purpose in Jesus name. Amen!!!

Main Emphasis:
Jesus fulfilled His purpose; it is now left for you to fulfill your purpose in the land of the living!!!

Christianity Etc › Resurrection By Divine Intervention by jonatoye(op): 7:29am On Apr 01, 2018
~~~Daily Spiritual Digest~~~
________________________________
[01-04-2018]

Focus: Resurrection By Divine Intervention

WORD FOR TODAY
The resurrection of Christ Jesus from death is possible by divine intervention. Your resurrection at any facet of life will only be possible by divine intervention!!!
************************
Scriptural Reference
"And behold, there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat on it." (Matthew 28:
2 NKJV)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The people who crucified Jesus were not ignorant of His word concerning His resurrection after death. Therefore, they put in place some measures to ensure that His resurrection does not take place. A very big stone was rolled at the entrance of the tomb and soldiers were employed to guide the tomb just to stop His resurrection.

However, by the virtue of divine intervention the big stone was rolled away and the soldiers became inactive to pave way for resurrection. In this season, irrespective of the evil seal placed against your destiny; if you will obey and submit your life to live the crucified life like Christ the evil seal against your life will be taken away.

The fact that people can go at any length to do evil does not change the fact that when God intervenes on a matter victory is assured.
________________________________
Question For Meditation:
+ Is there any embargo in any aspect of your life?

Prayer Point:
Lord! Intervene over the situation of my life; remove every evil seal holding me back from progress in every aspect of life in Jesus name. Amen!!!

Main Emphasis:
It takes divine intervention to fulfill purpose and heart desires!!

Christianity Etc › The Green And The Dry Timber by jonatoye(op): 7:22am On Mar 31, 2018
~~~Daily Spiritual Digest~~~
________________________________
[31-03-2018]

Focus: The Green and The Dry Timber

WORD FOR TODAY
Everything that happened to Christ Jesus while on earth is a prototype of the things that can happen to you. There is no anointing that can exempt you from experiencing the true nature of the earth!!!
************************
Scriptural Reference
" For if they do these things when the timber is green, what will happen when it is dry?" (Luke 23.31AMP)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you are still living on earth Jesus said you will have plenty tribulations (John 16:33). He also said that if as a green tree He experienced all these, how much more we as dry timber. If Christ Jesus who is God personified was persecuted, beaten, killed as a green timber, anything God allows in your life can happen to you.

He regarded us as a dry timber because He knows our weaknesses, consecration, imperfectness and level of our obedience to His precepts.

What you need as you go on in destiny is faith in God and strong believe in your resurrection in every situation of life that seems to crucify you. It is an outright deception to think that by the virtue of your faith in God you can be exempted from typical experience of life. Be on your guard, put your trust in God and operate within the circumference of His will for your life.
________________________________
Question For Meditation:
+ How far can you go all alone and what can you do for yourself?

Prayer Point:
Lord! I need thee every hour; lead me on through the pathway of destiny in Jesus name. Amen!!!

Main Emphasis:
The concept of dry timber is the fact that; as humans we need God and we are not self sufficient!!

Christianity Etc › The Crucified Christ by jonatoye(op): 12:31pm On Mar 30, 2018
~~~Daily Spiritual Digest~~~
________________________________
[30-03-2018]

Focus: The Crucified Christ

WORD FOR TODAY
The understanding of Christ Crucified is critical to your victory over sin, death and Satan. If you must accept Christ, you must accept the crucified Christ to live victoriously in life!!!
************************
Scriptural Reference
" For I decided to concentrate only on Jesus Christ and his death on the cross. (1Corinthians 2:2 NLT)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Gospel is presented to many in different ways. Many people accepted the Jesus Christ who will make them rich, solve their problem, heal their sick, feed them all the days of their lives and meet their numerous needs in the land of the living.

If all these serves as the basis of our faith then it is of no use. There are several ways we can achieve all these without even praying. Many unbelievers enjoy most of these without knowing Him. Therefore, miracles don't prove the Gospel but the death and resurrection of Jesus.

The Crucified Christ is the heartbeat of the Gospel. His death gave the assurance of resurrection in every facet of life and His power over death.
________________________________
Question For Meditation:
+ Which Christ did you receive and why did you accept Him?

Prayer Point:
Lord! I receive the grace to live victoriously over sin, death and Satan in Jesus name. Amen!!!

The death and the resurrection of Christ is the basis of our faith!!!

________________________________
[29-03-2018]

Focus: God: The Giver of Life

WORD FOR TODAY
One of those things which makes God the Almighty is that He gives. The most important gift from Him to all mankind is the gift of His only begotten son who died that we might live!!!
************************
Scriptural Reference
"For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16 NLT)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The beauty of the human race is in the fact that God gave His only begotten son as an antidote to perdition. Christ died to provide grace for victory over death at all levels of life.

You have the responsibility of believing in Him if you must live. You must reciprocate God's love for you by giving your life to Him. The blessedness of your life will only manifest in various sacrifices you make for His name sake.

Let's submit ourselves to God and lay it down sacrificially in the manner Christ did in every aspect of our services towards Him. This is the only way to live in resemblance to His attributes.
________________________________
Question For Meditation:
+ What did you give to reciprocate the love of God towards you?

Prayer Point:
Lord! Thank you for saving me; help me to submit my entire life in service to you in Jesus name. Amen!!!

________________________________
[28-03-2018]

Focus: Every Boss Has a Boss

WORD FOR TODAY
Every man created by God is a steward of everything given to him. At your own level you are a boss over what is given to you!!!
************************
Scriptural Reference
"Moreover it is required in stewards that one be found faithful." (1Corinthians 4:2 NKJV)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There is nothing you have that is not given to you and there is nothing you become without the involvement of your creator. God gives everyone of us certain degree of freedom to exercise our authority within the limit of grace made available to us in various aspect of life.

As a father, mother, brother, sister, aunty, uncle, employee, employer of labour, Pastor, General Overseer, President, Governor etc. You have a boss and that boss is God. The Lord sees every secret which is not visible to men. You will be called to give an account based on the privileges given to you.

Be mindful of the fact that no man will be boss forever because life is a temporary assignment. Within the limited time of your opportunities; fear God and hold at a very high esteem His will for your life.

Family › Marriage: The Place Of Submission And Love by jonatoye(op): 6:57am On Mar 27, 2018

[27-03-2018]

Focus: Marriage: The Place of Submission and Love


WORD FOR TODAY
A woman who cannot submit to a man's authority and a man who cannot submit himself to God to love a woman in the manner Christ love the church and gave himself to it, should not marry. Marriage is a place of submission and love.
************************
Scriptural Reference
"Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God." (Ephesians 5:21KJV)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The issue of submission in marriage is not the duty of the woman alone. As the woman is expected to submit to her husband so also the man is expected to submit to Christ to love his wife by accepting her the way she is in all circumstances.

Love is all about sacrifice; is about God and His attributes. One of those things that validate the fact that you are a Child of God is that you obey God. A woman who truly loves her husband will not have problem with submission and when a man truly displays the attributes of God to love unconditionally He will definitely earn respect and submission from the wife effortlessly.

As a single man/woman you must never marry a woman/man who have not submitted to God with respect to the way of His life. Anyone still living in sin or making sinful advances towards you have not submitted to God and such will not make a good husband or wife.
________________________________
Question For Meditation:
+ Are you living in absolute submission to God?

Prayer Point:
Lord! Take away everything making it difficult for us to submit to you in all situation of life in Jesus name. Amen!!!

________________________________
[26-03-2018]

Focus: Beyond your Thoughts

WORD FOR TODAY
The greatness of God is seen in the fact that He works out His good pleasure in our lives beyond our thoughts and in His own way.
************************
Scriptural Reference
"And Israel said to Joseph, "I had not thought to see your face; but in fact, God has also shown me your offspring!" (Genesis 48:11NKJV)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
God is God because He walks and works mysteriously. He sometimes takes us to the path we seem not to understand just to perform His wonders in our lives.

Jacob had given up on Joseph because he mourned him and even vowed to go to grave mourning him. The whole situation looked as if God was not fair to him for taking away his glorious son Joseph. Beyond what he thought; He did not only see Joseph but also his sons.

Various situation of life must have prompted you to give up on certain visions, aspirations and issues about your life. Keep faith alive and live in the expectation of what the Lord has said concerning your life. What you've been through so far prepares your heart to know God by experience and to understand His works. In this season the Lord will revive your hope in every issue of life you have given up in Jesus name.
________________________________
Question For Meditation:

WORD FOR TODAY
No matter how wonderful and influential a man may appear to be; he cannot be great forever. Only God is great forever.
************************
Scriptural Reference
"Behold, God is great, and we do not know Him; Nor can the number of His years be discovered." (Job 36:26 NKJV)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Everything we can see around us and in our lives speaks of the greatness of God. Many wonderful people have lived but are no more. Right before our eyes we see great men leaving the stage for younger generation even when they are still living.

This proves the fact that everything in life is about God who rules in the affairs of men. He is the Lord who determines the greatness of all men in the land of the living. The beauty of your life is to live to worship and honour Him all the days of your life. The Lord comes first in every issue of life and He is the end of all situation! He is great and He is God all by Himself.

"Jesus said to him, I am the Way and the Truth and the Life; no one comes to the Father except by (through) Me." (John 14:6 AMP)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Every man is expected to look unto Jesus the author and the finisher of our faith to see God in all situation. In everything you do desire to see God through Christ Jesus.

Jesus came to live among men to show us the way of life. His teachings are the truth we need to know to set us free in every life's issue. The manner He healed men from their sicknesses, fed them, counselled them and gave them peace; is the way He gives life.

If you must see God and reign with Him eternally; you must know Jesus. He is our model; you don't know the way until you know Him.

~~~Daily Spiritual Digest~~~
________________________________
[23-03-2018]

Focus: When Salt Looses It Saltiness

WORD FOR TODAY
One of the most difficult and impossible thing to do is to restore the saltiness of a salt that has been lost. The beauty of your life as a Christian is that you resemble Christ Jesus in His attributes!!!
************************
Scriptural Reference
"You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste (its strength, its quality), how can its saltiness be restored? It is not good for anything any longer but to be thrown out and trodden underfoot by men." (Matthew 5:13 AMP)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
God called His Children the salt of the earth because they will express His true nature in every place of their habitation. Have you at any point in time considered a world without the Christians? Where there are Christians there is peace, love, progress and miraculous signs and wonders.

Salt is useless in isolation; your worth, faith and character will not be known and valued until you mingle with other men. The beauty of your existence can only be seen in your attitude among men. However, with respect to the lifestyle of men in schools, banks, government agencies, Companies, Churches, homes and other places you can see men; people are no longer enthusiastic about God and His affairs on earth because many so called Christians are not different from unbelievers in terms of faithfulness, righteousness and integrity.

Therefore, God will not be pleased with your life if you drag His name in the mud. Submit yourself to God to do His will to make Him attractive before all people. The damage done to the human life when they feel jilted on the account of the name of God is costly and sometimes unrecoverable.
________________________________
Question For Meditation:
+ Do people value your faith? Is the God you serve attractive to them?

Prayer Point:
Lord! My life will not drag your name in the mud; my glory will not turn to shame nor my honour to disgrace in Jesus name. Amen!!!

Main Emphasis:
When salt looses it's saltiness; it becomes the object of scorn, from grace to grass, from glory to shame and from honour to disgrace!!!

[21-03-2018]

Focus: God Does Not Make Mistake

WORD FOR TODAY
The Lord will never make the mistake of giving the reward which belongs to a man who works for Him to another. He will reward every man according to what he has done!!!
************************
Scriptural Reference
"Behold, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done." Revelation 22:12 NIV)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There is nothing you do for God that is in vain. There is a reward for everything you do. God does not reward a man because He is a General Overseer, Regional Overseer, District Overseer, Pastor, Evangelist, Deacon or based on the position a man holds but reward the works of men irrespective of who they are and whether it is commendable, wonderful, visible to men or not.

With the way you are handling the things of God; the Lord is mindful of it. He said He will never forget the labour of your love even if nobody knows about it nor compensate you for it. At every point in time I keep hearing the Lord saying: I know your works, not your position or personality. It is only what you do for God that will go into eternity.

We have come to a dispensation where people no longer have time for God; they give their prime useful years to seek for bread and worldly pleasures. God will not make mistake; He will not reward you for what you did not do and will not give to another the reward meant for you.

Your life is an investment in the hands of the Almighty God. Nothing happens to you by accident but according plan to fulfill His purpose!!!
************************
Scriptural Reference
"And if anyone asks you, "Why are you loosing it?" thus you shall say to him, "Because the Lord has need of it." (Luke 19:31 NKJV).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Have you at any time have a thorough evaluation of your life with respect to your experiences so far in life (both the good and the bad) and the grace made available for you? All what has happened to you happened for a purpose; the Lord has a need for it.

Every word of God coming to you on daily basis through various medium is tailored towards preparing you for something ahead. The blessing of the Lord at your disposal is meant to help you to play your part in fulfilling God's purpose.

Be mindful of the fact that your conception was never your idea, the Lord took a thought of you before you come into realization of who you are. Brace up and make yourself available to fulfill the purpose of your creation. Use what you have, what you've achieved so far and what you are achieving to fulfill purpose in the land of the living!

Focus: Tied For The Master's Use

WORD FOR TODAY
The Lord will only use a man who has submitted himself to grow under definite divine process. The essence of taking you through what you've been through all these years is to make you fit and available for the master's use!!!
************************
Scriptural Reference
"Go to the village ahead of you, and as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, which no one has ever ridden. Untie it and bring it here." (Luke 19:30 NIV)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We have seen several men who became a disgrace to the body of Christ on the account of money and other material possession of life despite holding a honourable position in the household of God. With a critical look to their lives you will discover that these men were not under the yoke of the Lord. They were free rangers living without regarding the will of God.

As a Child of God; you are expected to be an instrument in His hand. If the Lord must ride on you to fulfill His purpose with your life; then your life must be available for Him and only for Him. You must be mindful of the fact that you are special for Him. You can't just go anywhere, eat anything, wear anything, marry anybody, work with just any firm, live anywhere, do just any job apart from the one He allows for your life.

This may sound so foolish to those who are perishing. In the manner which the Lord sent for the tired colt; will come for you and manifest His Glory through your life. Therefore, submit yourself to every divine process to keep fit for every divine assignment.

Christianity Etc › His Yoke Is Easy And His Burden Is Light by jonatoye(op): 11:31am On Mar 18, 2018
~~~Daily Spiritual Digest~~~
________________________________
[18-03-2018]

Focus: His Yoke is Easy and His burden is Light

WORD FOR TODAY
There is no man without a yoke or a burden. Your rest in the land of the living depends on taking the yoke of the Lord upon you and learning from Him!!!
************************
Scriptural Reference
"Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light." ( Matthew 11:29-30 NKJV)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In life, there are many people who are tired of life despite the money they have and the resources at their disposal. Some at a point in their lives will see no reason to live on and commit suicide. More money, houses, cars, businesses and other wonderful and pleasurable possessions of life does not give a man rest but rather increases his worries.

Coming to Jesus to learn and taking His yoke upon you is what gives a man rest. Until a man makes His burden his burden, he will never find rest for his soul. Having a closer look at the lifestyle of Jesus; His meat is to do the will of God and He lived His entire life trusting the Father for everything as a stranger in this terrain.

Be mindful of men who in absolute submission to the sinful nature place the burden they can't carry on people in the manner of the Pharisees. If you can faithfully and willingly submit to Jesus to walk in His steps you will come to know that His yoke is easy and His burden is light.

Christianity Etc › Not A Word Failed by jonatoye(op): 6:59am On Mar 17, 2018

________________________________
[17-03-2018]

Focus: Not a Word Failed

WORD FOR TODAY
No matter what happens the word of the Lord will not fail. Everything the He said concerning your life will surely come to pass!!!
************************
Scriptural Reference
"Not a word failed of any good thing which the LORD had spoken to the house of Israel. All came to pass." (Joshua 21:45 NKJV).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The ultimate interest of the Lord in what you are passing through is your faith through your reactions. When the Lord speaks He means it, even if the whole world will not believe.

When the Israelites were still in the heat of their slavery in Egypt, none of them could ever imagine been free or dwelling in the land of promise. The wilderness experience is another issue that gave them enough to give up on the word of God. But at last, the word of the Lord came to pass and He gave them rest on every side.

Nobody would ever think the brothers of Joseph will still worship Him according to the word of God to him when he was a slave in Egypt but the word of the Lord came to pass. It is possible that the situation of life around you is prompting to secretly and silently ask where is the promise? Not a word will fail in everything the Lord has said concerning you!

Sometimes a man can exhibit unbelief or even go astray; God's promises remain unchanged and will wait for Him at the point of repentance because He is true to His word and everything He said must be fulfilled.
________________________________
Question For Meditation:
+ Do you still hold on His promises?

Prayer Point:
Lord! I hold on your promises in life; do what you say you would do in Jesus name. Amen!!!

Whatever you feel with respect to your experience so far in life, the fact still remains that the word of the Lord will not fail!!!

WORD FOR TODAY
Jesus Christ is the model presented to all men who wish to win the race. You are not running the race effectively if your ways and lifestyle is not patterned to that of Christ !!!
************************
Scriptural Reference
"Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God." (Hebrews 12:2 NKJV).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You cannot understand purpose until you understand the personality of Christ Jesus. You can't understand the perspective of life's journey until you study the life of Christ. Jesus started His race on earth and won the race by sitting at the right hand of God. You also, your journey is expected to end sitting at the right hand of God.

Irrespective of your experience so far in your pilgrimage; it is not new and you are not the first. Jesus was very close to God the father, His will was His priority. He did nothing without Him and operate under the influence of the father in all things. He lived sacrificially by laying down His life for the sake of the human race.

His prayer life, His eating lifestyle, relationship with people and government as well as tenacity remains a model for your pilgrimage.

________________________________
[14-03-2018]

Focus: Building Intimacy with God

WORD FOR TODAY
Every man, no matter how wonderful, supportive, friendly, helpful they may appear to be to you, will surely leave you when the time comes. Develop yourself and build intimate relationship with God; the only one who promised never to leave nor forsake you!!!
************************
Scriptural Reference
"Then they all forsook Him and fled." (Mark 14:50 NKJV).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Every man will not but come to the point of facing his destiny all alone. Every support or help you use to enjoy will not last forever. There is a limit your friend, parent, spouse, pastor can go with you in destiny. This is because every man has a race exclusively set before Him. Make best use of every opportunity you have when God bring men on your path in destiny to help you; enjoy while it lasts.

Jesus in His hour of darkness was left alone; his disciples could not even watch on his behalf prior to His arrest. And when He was arrested they left Him. Those He healed, raised from the death, taught the word of God, fed with 5 bread and 2 fishes; were no where to be found.

What happened to Jesus here is a prototype of what will also happen to you in destiny. Don't be dejected on the account of people's behaviour to you in any situation you find yourself; they did not at any point in time promise to be with you in all situation.
________________________________

Lord! I receive the grace to walk with you all along my pilgrim journey in Jesus name. Amen!!!

Focus: Your Decision in the Race of Life

WORD FOR TODAY
You have no right to blame anyone for your failures in life, since the race is exclusive. Every man will not but come to a critical junction where he will be required to decide the definition of his destiny!!!
************************
Scriptural Reference
"Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us," (Hebrews 12:1 NIV).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Gehazi came to a junction where he decided to do contrary to the will of God. The last record written about him was that he was leprous; he made that decision. Abraham also came to a point where he decided to sleep with Hager to begat Ishmael; the entire world today has not recovered from the effect of that single decision.

Joseph the son of Jacob came to a turning point where he decided to do the will of God; this singular action established his dreams. Also, Moses at a point identified himself with the people of God; his decision gave him a place in the purpose of God.

The opportunity to define your life and future in destiny will be made available for you. The major decision you must always make include laying aside every weight hindering your progress, putting away and repenting from your besetting sins; having strong will and zeal to run the race in the direction of God's will for your life.

Focus: Just for a While

WORD FOR TODAY
Everything you are passing through in a build up to your glorious destiny is just for a while. The primary purpose of what you are experiencing or have experienced so far in life is to bring you into perfection, establish, strengthen and settle you!!!
************************
Scriptural Reference
"But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you." (1 Peter 5:10 NKJV).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Suffering is part of our experience as a child of God but just for a while. There are some wisdom, strength, expertise, experience you may never have until you suffer a bit. You will never understand the true value of humanity until you suffer. Whatever you think you know remains a theory until you have a practical experience.

Jesus did not become the Lord of all without suffering. David did not become the King of Israel on the platter of God. Joseph had to become a slave just to be the prime minister of Egypt. It is not an act of wickedness on the part of the Lord for making you to suffer in various aspect. You are under going a process required to make you what He wants you to be.

You will soon forget all your pains because the Lord of all grace will perfect that which concerns you and make grace available in every aspect of your incapacitation (John 16:21-22). Make effort never to fail the test of life placed before you within the period of your trial.

Question For Meditation:
+ Who actually makes it in life without an experience or passing the test of life?

Prayer Point:
Lord! I will not fail; I will not lose out in destiny in Jesus name. Amen!!!

Focus: The Race of Life

WORD FOR TODAY
The earlier you know that you are alone in the journey of destiny to run the race set before you the better for you. Your parents, friends, pastors, spouse, acquaintance and everything attached to your life are just there to support !!!
************************
Scriptural Reference
"Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us," (Hebrews 12:1 NIV).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The race of life is designed to accommodate a single soul at a time. Every man is expected to run in his own track even in the midst of various support like your parent, spouse, teacher, pastors etc. and witnesses like those who ran the race and those still running the race.

This is why every man will stand before the judgement throne of Christ and no man will represent another. Jesus came into the world and ran his own race; He is part of the witness. In the book of Hebrew 11; the chronicles of men of faith like Abraham, Isaac, Joseph, David, Joshua, Jephthah who ran their race successfully was written to be our witness. In their records; the names of their spouse and other people were not included.

Put aside every weight of sin and run with endurance the race that is set before you. Fulfill the purpose of God and do His will as you proceed on the pathway of destiny!

Focus: The Pathway of Excellence

WORD FOR TODAY
Excellence begins with how you treat people - Sam Adeyemi
************************
Scriptural Reference
Do nothing from factional motives [through contentiousness, strife, selfishness, or for unworthy ends] or prompted by conceit and empty arrogance. Instead, in the true spirit of humility (lowliness of mind) let each regard the others as better than and superior to himself [thinking more highly of one another than you do of yourselves]. (Philippians 2:3 AMP)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The beauty of a nation does not depend on the magnitude of the resources she has but the value it places on its people. A nation that places less value on its people and does not invest on them will not only be miserable but also be cursed.

You define your future and your impact in the land of the living by the manner you treat the people around you irrespective of who they are to you. Your performance in everything you do is engraved in the hearts of men and not even in their actions towards you.

What is the usefulness of a life that does not have any positive impact in the lives of men? You were created for service to humanity. In everything you do; hold to a very high esteem the interest of men whom you are serving. This is the pathway of excellence as seen in the life of Christ Jesus who died for our sins.

Therefore, you must always seek God to know the next line of action to ensure that you get better maritally, spiritually, academically, financially, socially, professionally etc.

Live your entire life having the orientation that the best is yet to come and that you must always seek God to help you know what to do in every quest to get better in every aspect of life.

************************
Scriptural Reference
"But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us. We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed-- always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body." (2 Corinthians 4:7-10 NKJV).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the text, the major reason why Apostle Paul and other disciples had the experiences they had was revealed. In all things they commended themselves as ministers of God: in much patience, in tribulations, in needs, in distresses, in stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in sleeplessness, in fastings;" (2 Corinthians 6:4-5); Just to win Christ and be a partaker of His Glory.

Jesus was nailed on the cross to save the entire human race.
Joseph was a slave for a purpose, Daniel was in the Lions' den for a purpose. The three Hebrews passed through fire to prove a point for the Glory of God. What will your own life turnout to be with respect to your experiences so far in life? Why is your life like this? It will be a very difficult question to answer if you don't know the perspective of your destiny.

Focus: Money is Not Everything

WORD FOR TODAY
Money is not everything, but a means to an end. A man who believes that money is everything will eventually sell his glorious destiny, future and eternity for money.
************************
Scriptural Reference
"Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you." (Hebrews 13:5 NIV)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Money is good; it is an indispensable element of the human life on earth. We all need money to fulfill our purpose. However, we should never give too much power to money because money is a good servant but a bad master.

Never put money in place of God in your life. A man who lives just to make money lives for the wrong reason. Whoever loves money never has enough; whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with his income. This too is meaningless. (Eccl. 5:10).

There are several good people in this life who would have made impact in the lives of men but eventually became laughing stock because of money. Many people lost their peace, integrity,purpose, mandate, message, fulfillment, hope for eternity with God. Don't allow money to define your destiny or action but always decide on what money will do for you.

Focus: What Has Changed?

WORD FOR TODAY
There will surely be a remarkable change in the life of a man who truly have an encounter with Christ. It is an aberration to claim being born again without an evidence of a new life!!!
************************
Scriptural Reference
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. (2Corinthians 5:17 NKJV)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There is a need to sometimes sit and evaluate your life based on your lifestyle to know your progress in the Lord. Can you identify any change in your life since you believed?

You have not met Christ Jesus if you discover that nothing spectacular in terms of living righteously has happened in your life. All those who truly had an encounter with Christ experienced God and have a change of life. Many of them stopped stealing, fighting, keeping malice, backbiting, fornicating, lying, being wicked etc. There is a distinct change in their lifestyle after giving their lives to Christ.

The evidence of being born again is in the fact that you no longer live in sin and that all those things you used to do which are not the will of God; you do them no more.
________________________________
Question For Meditation:
