Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 23rd Of May 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY When things get out of hand; it does, for God's intervention and that He may take exclusive Glory over it!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "When he heard this, Jesus said, "This sickness will not end in death. No, it is for God's glory so that God's Son may be glorified through it"." (John 11:4 NIV). ____________________________ Your experience as a child of God is tailored towards His glory. Despite the fact that your experience might not be palatable the fact still remains that the plans of God for your life is for good and not of evil. This is because the primary purpose for taking you through such experience is not to kill or cut you short but to bring out the gold in you (an expected end). The One who sees the end from the beginning knows what He wants to do with your life. Jesus knew the outcome of Lazarus' sickness despite the fact that his sisters were worried. The Lord saw the situation as an occasion to take Glory rather than the one that will lead to disappointment. Therefore, He did not attend to the situation immediately just to allow it to get out of hand. Maybe the situation of your life is also similar to this one. You have prayed for God's intervention but the situation still looks like the type that will never be attended to. Whatever the case may be the Lord is always right on time. The battle of your life becomes the Lord's when you submit both your strength and weakness before Him. Irrespective of how the situation of your life may appear to be; it is not for death but an occasion for God to take glory over your life. Keep faith alive even as you proceed on the pathway of destiny. The Lord will deliver you and bring you out of every grave experience to glorify Himself over your life in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Outstanding Week Ahead!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 21st Of May 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY The renewing of your mind at every point in time is paramount to entering into the perfect will of God for your life!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God." (Romans 12:2 NKJV). ________________________________ God is not an author of any kind of evil. It occurs when the devil is given the required space to perform his enterprise. Being a Child of God does not stop the devil from having access to speak into your spirit. However, being born again gives you the power to be a child of God thereby helping you to say NO to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age," (Titus 2:12). The only way you can prove what is good and acceptable to God is to renew your heart to always conform to His will. He is very much interested in your expected end. A man who found himself in jail as a result of fraud, murder and various dubious activities; a student expelled from school due to examination malpractices; a man suffering from sexually transmitted diseases because of unfaithfulness to his spouse; is not in the perfect will of God for His life. If only we can all submit ourselves to God and accept the salvation freely offered to all mankind; several problems in the society would have been solved. If a man and a woman in holy matrimony would always give way for God's will to prevail through the renewal of their hearts against the evil suggestion of the devil; divorce will have no place in homes. If you will always consider your ways and choose to be on the Lord's side; the lines will always fall in pleasant places for you. Give no place to the devil. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Superb Weekend!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 20th Of May 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Your existence is a proof that God is not yet through with you. You may not have everything atleast there is Hope for you!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "With long life will I satisfy him and show him my salvation"." (Psalms 91:16 NIV). _____________________________ If you are still alive God is still very much interested in your life. His ultimate desire is for Him to be your God through Salvation offered freely to you at every point in time. His Salvation over your life began right from your mother's womb. The One who delivered and preserved you to this very point in time still has more to do in your life. Joseph the son of Jacob through the mercy of God was singled out to be the head over his brethren. The salvation of the Lord began in his life when he learnt the way of the Lord. His brothers tried to cut his dreams short but God rose to deliver Him. When he got to Egypt the devil also tempted Him to destroy the mandate of God over His life; yet the salvation of the Lord was available for Him. The devil also tried to imprisoned Him to hinder the manifestation of his glory; even yet the Lord brought him out. When the stage was set to solve a problem that is so critical to the manifestation and the fulfillment of His mandate; salvation was available. At every point of need God was available to bring His words to pass. The evil one is not ignorant of the mandate of God over your life. Every effort and investment of the Lord over your life is tailored towards saving you. Don't ignore His words and purpose for your life. Abide under the shadow of His grace. You will not but always need Him at various stages of life. Even at those times of need; salvation will be available for you if you make yourself available to do His will. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Terrific Friday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 19th Of May 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY A man is not fulfilled until he has seen the salvation of the Lord. Walking into the reality of God's plans and purpose for your life is paramount to your existence!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Sovereign Lord, as you have promised, you now dismiss your servant in peace. For my eyes have seen your salvation, which you have prepared in the sight of all people, a light for revelation to the Gentiles and for glory to your people Israel." (Luke 2:29-32 NIV). _______________________________ The ultimate desire of God for creating you to be a living soul is to show you His salvation. Knowing God in His mighty act is very essential to your existence. You are created to fulfill a purpose in the entire purpose of God on earth. There is a glory that must be shown through you as you proceed on the pathway of destiny. No man will fall asleep in peace until he sees the salvation of the Lord. "With long life will I satisfy him and show him my salvation"." (Psalms 91:16). The reason why a man will continue to live, is for him to see the salvation of the Lord. The Lord promised Simon that He will not see death before he sees Christ. He waited for it and received the promise. The mercy of God made him to see the salvation of the Lord. There is a pre-determined plan of God over your life; He said some things about you even before you came to the realisation of yourself (Jer 1:5). There is a height on which you so much desire to stand and dreams yet unfulfilled. They are actually in God's plan for you. Believe in His plans for you, expect its manifestation and walk into it by the virtue of the grace made available for you on daily basis. It is in His desire for you to know by experience that He is the almighty God who rules in the affairs of men. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Fulfilled Thursday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 18th Of May 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Each time the Lord is set to have mercy on a man, He makes grace available for him in various aspect of life. You have not prayed until you seek and ask for God's mercy over the affairs of your life!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "For He says to Moses, "I will have mercy on whomever I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whomever I will have compassion." So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy." (Romans 9:15-16 NKJV). _______________________________ When mercy comes to play God is in charge. It is not of man but of Him who rules in the affairs of men. The struggling of a man is nothing without the mercy of God. The mercy of the Lord has nothing to do with whether a man is saved, righteous, holy, sinning, filthy or of a noble character. Unmerited favour becomes the portion of a man whom God shows mercy. It is only through the mercy of God that your effort in life will result into remarkable success. Therefore, the only solution to the problems you are facing is the mercy of God. It takes the mercy of God to get what money cannot buy. On what ground did God love Jacob and hate Esau even when they were yet unborn. The word "injustice" is irrelevant in the face of God's mercy; this is because mercy triumphs over judgement (James 2:13b). If you can look around, it is possible you see some people whom through human Judgement do not deserve some things. It is never your business to Judge or to question God over His mercy on mankind. You must always plead for God's mercy as you proceed on the pathway of destiny. Don't be eaten up by the things you've put in place for your life. Be Humble enough to acknowledge God in the affairs of your life. The Lord will look upon you and be merciful unto you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Favoured Wednesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 15th Of May 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY The world is full of troubles but we can only feel our own. Close not your eyes, mind, pocket and resources against men who are in need; no man is too big to be a needy!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "If a man shuts his ears to the cry of the poor, he too will cry out and not be answered." (Proverbs 21:13 NIV). _______________________________ The Lord did not create a man who is self-sufficient. The fact that we are humans make some experience in life compulsory. These experiences are meant to always remind us that we have not come to stay in this world but as a mist which only appear to disappear. Men are faced with different types of problems ranging from financial, marital, emotional, physiological, biological and spiritual just to mention few. There is no doubt in the fact that we all have what we are facing at every point in time. However, we are planted wherever we find ourselves to respond to people's need which is a way to be an extended hand of the Almighty God reaching out to the oppressed. The Lord will always meet the need of His own people in one way or the other; nevertheless it is good that the Glory of the Lord who is the ever present help in the time of need to reflect in our lives. Men who made themselves available in the time of needs through the cup of cold water given to other men in Jesus name succeeded in making their lives an exclusive part of various success stories in the life of men. The sweet memories of your kind gesture will always remain fresh in the heart of men and will also speak for you in God's presence over the needs in your life. It really takes the heart of sacrifice to render assistance. Try as much as possible to meet the needs of men according to the measure of Grace given to you. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Inspired Worship Experience!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 14th Of May 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY There is no covenant without sacrifice. No man can follow God effectively without absolute commitment to His pre-defined covenant with men!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Now the LORD had said to Abram: "Get out of your country, From your family And from your father's house, To a land that I will show you. I will make you a great nation; I will bless you And make your name great; And you shall be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed."" (Genesis 12:1-3 NKJV). _______________________________ Our God is a covenant keeping God; He has never gone back on His words. He sacrificed his only begotten son to establish covenant with the entire human race. Therefore, if we must follow him; we must resemble Him by living a life of sacrifice. By the virtue of the covenant that brought salvation to us; His love compels us to live righteously and please Him at all times. Abraham followed the Lord by leaving his familiar ground not minding what will become of his life and destiny. He took great risk under God and in the direction of His will for him believing the promises of God alone. These promises came to reality not on the platter of Gold. For everything the Lord wants to make out of your life; you must be ready to pay the price. In life, there is no gain without pain and no crown without cross. The commitment of Daniel and his friends to God reflected in their purpose of heart not to defile themselves. The aftermath was that they were ten times better. The plan of God is great for us if we will be loyal and committed to His will for our lives. Renew your will on daily basis even as you walk in His steps as you proceed on the pathway of destiny. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Wonderful Weekend!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 13th Of May 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Every true wise man does not leave the issue of his life, future and heaven making to chance. Chance is more or less a consolation for mediocrity!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "This day I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live" (Deuteronomy 30:19 NIV). _______________________________ You will have no choice when you leave your entire life and destiny to chance. Chance usually comes with time or occasion; it only favours a prepared mind and not idle or lazy people. It shows everything happening to a man as fate. Our God is a God of choice; therefore, we must make choices. It is a man who will decide and not heaven or the angels whether he will enjoy the rest of his life on earth. Choice shows that there are alternatives and that you can't have all you want at a time. It shows the chance of getting the best with respect to circumstances. If a man is spiritually blind, canal in nature, independent of his creator and have no one to guide him, he cannot make good choices. At every point in time you have the exclusive right to choose either death or life. Choosing life begins with accepting the will of God through absolute surrenderness to Him at every point in time. Don't leave the issue of your eternal destiny to chance; it is too costly. You must choose how to live your life and where to spend your eternity. Don't allow the physical or the temporary things of life to influence your choices for you; they are too ignorant. Allow Jesus to direct your life; commit your daily choice into His hand, He will lead you to making the best choices in life. The Lord will give the grace to always renew your will according to His in everything in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Splendid Friday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ___________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 11th Of May 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY If you can only take your time and have a reflection of what your life has been and what it is at present you will discover that you are a product of privilege! ******************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Praise the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits- who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion," (Psalms 103:2-4 NIV). ____________________________ You cannot always have all you desire at a point in time. However, God is faithful to give you what you need. No matter the situation you find yourself; you are better than someone. The Lord out of His love for us does not give us everything we ask Him; He being the author of our lives know what is best for us at every point in time. Since your existence was never your idea you are a product of privilege. You are required to proceed on the pathway of destiny with patience trusting the Lord to do His good pleasure in your life. When you live your life based on what you want to become alone, you will not be able to praise the Lord as you should. Look back and have a reflection of what the Lord has done and praise Him. Appreciate Him for the favour you have received so far with great Hope that He will do even more in your life. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen! Have an impressive Wednesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 5th Of May 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY There are some things you cannot change; however, you need serenity to accept the things you cannot change and courage to change the ones you can change- Sam Adeyemi ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love." (Ephesians 4:2 NIV). ________________________________ In life God has not given you control over everything and everybody. There are things you can do nothing about. Anyone who tries to control what God has not given him to control would be frustrated. If there is anything you can change, you need patient and courage to change them. You also need wisdom to know the difference between what you can change and the ones you cannot so that you do not waste your strength and resources. People change much after marrying but people don't change much after they get married; in terms of their personality, temperament, strength and weakness. However, there can be improvement. Love is not blind it only closes its eyes. On the other hand, you can be blind to some reality because you are in love. In life we know in part with respect to time. When your eyes become open to some realities and you begin to see some things you didn't see before now; you must learn to accept the person the way he/she is else you will become very unhappy. You will be communicating rejection when you fail to accept your partner in love. People are happy when they are free to be themselves. Always try as much as possible not to hurt the feelings of men in love. Pray earnestly to God to make for you the desired life partner. He is our maker. If you want to be happy and find rest on the pathway of destiny you must acknowledge Him in all your ways. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Blissful Thursday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 4th Of May 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY All men were created equally. What differentiates you from other men is your character!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Now the Bereans were of more noble character than the Thessalonians, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true." (Acts 17:11 NIV). ________________________________ Irrespective of who you are (be it a King, Governor, President, Employer, Pastor, Reverend, Bishop etc.) you are God's creation. The Lord blessed us with everything we need to fulfill our destiny. It is not enough for grace to be made available for a man; it is another thing for him to make most of it. Your character determines your placement with God on your side. Your will, orientation, quality of mind and feeling is an important factor that determines your character. The Lord gave us life, sound health, intellect and loaded us with several benefits of life on daily basis. However, despite the rain falls, sun shine, wind blows on all men equally, not all men make most of its blessedness on daily basis. We read how the Bereans Christians were more of noble Character than the Thessalonians due to their commitment towards the word of God. They showed more interest to God's word than the Thessalonians. The word of God came to them in like manner but their character served as the differential factor. Take responsibility and give yourself to things that can improve and promote you in every way. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Superb Wednesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 3rd Of May 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY A man cannot know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory. Every true wise man make the most of each moment in every aspect of life!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Be very careful, then, how you live- not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil." (Ephesians 5:15-16 NIV). ________________________________ Every opportunity you have in life will always come to you on the platform of divine grace. The success you have made so far in life is possible because God made grace available. The interesting part of life is seen in the fact that each moment will surely pass. At least you can remember those days when you use to do this and that; those times have all gone into the memory lane. Some men refuse to take advantage of various opportunities placed before them until it slips away from them. There are men/ladies who fail to marry their ordained wife/husband on the account of physical things. Many failed to handle their relationship seriously thinking there is something better else where. The Lord blessed some people with riches of which they never maximised in the time of their prosperity; they lived as if things will always be the way it used to be and forget the fact that there are evil days. Several people who have the opportunity to hear the gospel, repent from their sins and making necessary restitution as the case may be with their lives failed to do so on the account of living to satisfy their sinful nature. Life is a mystery, make best use of every opportunity you have. Every season comes with it own blessing and challenges; help those you can help, serve the Lord, handle your relationship seriously and be humble enough to learn from people while you have the opportunity to do so. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Inspired Tuesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 2nd Of May 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY In prosperity our friends know us; but in adversity and needs we know our friends. The only antidote against disappointments in life is to trust and be in constant fellowship with God!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "When the men of Israel saw that they were in danger (for the people were distressed), then the people hid in caves, in thickets, in rocks, in holes, and in pits . . . As for Saul, he was still in Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling. Then he waited seven days, according to the time set by Samuel. But Samuel did not come to Gilgal; and the people were scattered from him." (1 Samuel 13:6-8 NKJV). ________________________________ The fact that the Lord created man for relationship is an important reason why you need men to achieve most things in life. However, you are not expected to put your entire life on what the eyes can see. This is because what the eye can see is temporal. Don't allow any temporal support to disconnect you from God who is the ever present help in the time of trouble. Men by default will always turn back from you when it seem the going is getting tough with you. People began to leave King Saul when they saw that things began to fall apart. These where the people who used to be close to him to enjoy the best of the Land. This situation put him under intense pressure which led him to sin. Thank God for everything the Lord has done for you in your job, home, career etc. When these things are working well it breeds human resource. But when God is set to seek your attention; He sends them away by making you to pass through life challenges so as to concentrate to know Him better and the real values of life. A man who learnt how to be in fellowship with God irrespective of the physical support in their lives will never be disappointed. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Sensational Week Ahead!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? Happy New Month ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 1st Of May 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY The dynamic nature of God's word is seen in the fact that it gives it meaning based on individual needs!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work." (2 Timothy 3:16-17 NKJV). ________________________________ Since the words of the Lord through the scripture is born out of the inspiration of God; it attends to the needs of men individually. The heart with which you approach God through His word determines what you will see in it. Consequently, your needs determine what you get from the scripture. The word of the Lord has creative power. Through it everything came to existence. Therefore, whatever will ever exist will come through the Word (John 1:1-5). There is a message you need with respect to various times. This is so because the earth is characterised by different time and season. Therefore, in order to minister to your needs, the same Word of God will come to you in different manner and approach at every point in time. It is good for a man to be sincere and make necessary adjustment when he sees the true picture of who he is at that every point in time in the mirror of God's word. This is what the Lord has done to make our lives to be what He wants us to be. Don't criticise anyone based on the words of God, but rather concentrate on the message God is passing across to you for your perfection. Make the words of the Lord the mirror for your daily life so as to represent Him as a truth ambassador positioned to bless your world. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Magnificent Worship Experience!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 30th Of April 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Nothing good will manifest in a man's life until grace is made available. Grace is an important pre-requisite for your journey in life!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." (Philippians 4:13 NKJV). ________________________________ Everything that is still difficult to do or achieve in life is so just because grace has not been made available. Most of the time what a man needs is not money, strength, influence but grace. We have seen men who have all the things listed above but at the end, every effort turned out to be a waste. Your strength, money, power, influence are only relevant in the presence of God's grace. "For He says to Moses, "I will have mercy on whomever I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whomever I will have compassion." So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy." (Romans 9:15-16). This is the concept of divine Grace. When the Lord is set to have mercy on a man He makes grace available for Him. You are created with wonderful potential; what you only need is grace. In the beginning; the earth was formless and void until the grace of God fell on it. Everything is possible with God. Therefore, with God on your side all things are possible by the virtue of the measure of grace made available for you. Irrespective of the condition of the world, acknowledge and seek Him in all your ways. If you have gotten to this point in life by Grace; you need it more as you proceed on the pathway of destiny. This is because life is characterised by several uncertainties. Seek for his grace with all your heart for a successful pilgrimage on earth. The Lord will make you find grace in this wilderness of life and always make it readily available in every aspect of life in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Gracious Weekend!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 29th Of April 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY When cumulative effort turn out to become success of any kind then God has made grace available!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "It is because of the Lord's mercy and loving-kindness that we are not consumed, because His [tender] compassions fail not. They are new every morning; great and abundant is Your stability and faithfulness." (Lamentations 3:22-23 AMP). ________________________________ It is not enough for a man to make effort in various aspect of God; the One who determines success is God. Many are the desires in the heart of men; manifestation belongs to God. If you are not a still birth and did not die like others while growing, if you are educated despite your experience while in school the fact still remains that it was the Lord who made grace available for you. If you were able to pursue a career and you find yourself on the path of achieving something in life see not yourself as a super man better than others. You are what you are because the Lord mad grace available for you. If you are healthy and strong enough to carry out your intentions; If you have a peaceful home characterised with sound of joy as a result of God's blessing in terms of the fruit of the womb and other physical blessings; don't forget those with broken home and those still trusting God for husband/wife as well as the fruit of the womb. It is not the case that you are lucky or great; God only made grace available for you. Are you saved? Do you know God? It is all about grace. The emergence of each day gives men the opportunity for new grace; they are new every morning. To be what the Lord wants you to be you need just one thing: GRACE. This you must always ask for on daily basis as you progress on the pathway of destiny. Lord! make grace available for me in every aspect of life in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Gracious Friday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 28th Of April 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY You cannot follow the Lord and still remain the same; A real encounter with the Lord transforms a man from Glory to Glory!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "But he said to them, "Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He is risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid Him." (Mark 16:6 NKJV). ________________________________ The ultimate plan of God for we His children is for us to move from Glory to Glory in all aspect of life. An encounter with Him is meant to open our faces to see Him in His attribute; so that we can be like Him living above all human limitations from Glory to Glory by His Spirit. "But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord." (2 Cor 3:18). When Bartimaeus the blind had an encounter with Jesus; his sight was restored and stopped being a beggar. From that very day, whoever sought to find where he used to be will not find him there. He was no longer there. There is a place where you always are. You are not created to be stationary in any aspect of life. The first transition that must happen to you is from sinner to a child of God. Such that you will no longer be among the thieves, liars, fornicators, unrighteous and the likes through the help of the Holy Spirit. Similarly, in the level where you use to be; by the virtue of His presence in your life you will be translated to enjoy His goodness in the land of the living. A time is coming very soon in your life when people will look for you where you used to be (Academically, Maritally, financially, spiritually etc.) and they will not find you because you must have been translated into the realm of greater Glory by the spirit of God in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Delighted Thursday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 27th Of April 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Passion, enthusiasm and necessity under the influence of the Holy Spirit is principal to achieving whatever you desire in life!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "And being moved with pity and sympathy, Jesus reached out His hand and touched him, and said to him, I am willing; be made clean!" (Mark 1:41 AMP). ____________________________ Nothing tangible will happen in the life of a man who waits for everything to fall in place automatically. We must take absolute responsibility to make things happen in the direction of God's will for our lives. We cannot but worry about various necessities of life. If there is any yearning and desire in your heart be willing to take the necessary step to achieve them according to God's will for your life. Those things that were written in the scripture on the account of the Lord Jesus were the ones He did. In our text; if he did not touch the man he would not have been made whole. Situations of life are unique among unique people who also need specific solution for their respective problems. Whatever you fail to do will not be in the chronicle of your achievement in life. There is something in you; a driving force called passion created by God to make some things of life easy for you. Be willing to submit your passion under the dictate of the Holy Spirit to enhance the fulfillment of your destiny. After praying, believing God, having faith always try to take responsibility in the direction of your calling and what you love to do passionately under God. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Terrific Wednesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 26th Of April 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Every problem you can identify in life is born out of the disobedience of man. Whatever the case may be with a man; It is a proven fact that God never abandons His own!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "I have been young and now am old, yet have I not seen the [uncompromisingly] righteous forsaken or their seed begging bread." (Psalms 37:25 AMP). _______________________________ The Lord is ever consistent with His works through His words. Right from the creation of the world the sun never cease to shine and every other natural resource has never failed in their manifestation and contribution to the human race. Despite the fact that the world population is increasing on daily basis yet there is still enough food and water for entire population. These speak at least of the consistent nature of God in ruling the affair of men. He is the almighty God and He has no record of failure. What your experience will be with God will always be determined by how you lived. "With the kind and merciful You will show Yourself kind and merciful, with an upright man You will show Yourself upright," (Psalms 18:25). When your life is right with God you will never be forsaken. His righteousness will be made known in your life from generation to generation . He proved Himself in several occasions in the time past as the ever present help in the time of trouble. We can talk about His mighty act at the Red sea, the manna the Israelites ate in the wilderness as well as the water they drank from the rock. If your life is not synonymous to the prodigal son you will never lack. You can always trust Him. You must Cooperate with Him if He must do His good pleasure in your life. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Glorious Tuesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 25th Of April 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Each time you allow God to order your steps He stands by your side to bring His words to pass. Walking in His step is principal to the fulfillment of your destiny!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "The steps of a [good] man are directed and established by the Lord when He delights in his way [and He busies Himself with his every step]. Though he falls, he shall not be utterly cast down, for the Lord grasps his hand in support and upholds him." (Psalms 37:23-24 AMP). ______________________________ What makes a good man from the first principle is the fact that he follows the Lord and resembles Him in His attributes. A man has not understood the purpose of living until he understands that life is all about God. Several great people with wonderful talent, riches, intellect have come and gone; life has proven over the time that no man can be great forever. Yet, the Lord reigns forever. He made us; we are the product of His own idea. He choose for us our parent, height, colour, race, date of birth, sex, origin and programmed every situation around our lives. If this is true; why should a man ever think of living by his own discretion? Allow the Lord to lead you as you proceed on the pathway of destiny. Walk in His step as you make several choices in various aspects of your life that are critical to the fulfillment of your destiny. In this way your life will be made beautiful at his own time and your ways will be pleasing to Him. The fact that He is leading you does not exempt you from falling but it is assured that you will not be cast down. This will be so for the purpose of your testimonies as well as understanding of His power and also for you to have complete knowledge of who He is. Let Him lead you on the path of righteousness to make your life right. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Beautiful Week Ahead!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 24th Of April 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Understanding the peculiarity of your age is an important factor that determines how much you will please God and fulfill His purpose on earth!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Flee the evil desires of youth, and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart." (2 Timothy 2:22 NIV). ______________________________ There are some things that does not trouble little children, the old men but the youth. Also, the children and the old people do not worry about some issues of life but exclusively the headache of the young man. Do not consider it strange as a youth when you begin to feel somehow or having new experience about yourself; in the aspect of your thoughts, desires, body anatomy, choice, dressing, hairdo, habitation, friends, reaction to the opposite sex and so on. However, you must understand that your youthful age is vital to your fulfillment in life. There is a very strong battle for the young. This is because, every young man is characterised by strength needed to actualise a vision. Therefore, Happy is the man who has them in His quiver. Just as God who made them needed them to implement His purpose on earth, so also the ancient enemy uses them to strengthen his domain. The perils associated to the youthful age is so enormous. At this stage of the human life many things become permanent as the foundation of the entire life is laid; academically, maritally, in career etc. Don't sacrifice your future on the altar of lust. Any passion aimed at fulfilling the will of the devil is regarded as lust. Flee from it. Give yourself to God's word by reading and listening to it, living by it and sharing it. Bear the yoke of being a young man even as you pursue love and righteousness. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Superb Worship Experience!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 23rd Of April 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Every man with divine mandate is a threat to the kingdom of darkness. Until you fulfill your mandate; your existence is irrelevant in the purpose of God!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil." (1 John 3:8 NKJV). ______________________________ The essence of the emergence of the son of God is to destroy the works of the devil. This also becomes the essence of our existence as children of God. In the beginning; there was an offence to be avenged. The glory of man was taken away as a result of the sin Adam committed when the devil deceived Eve. The verdict of God is that the son of man should bruise the head of the serpent while the serpent is to bruise his feet if given space to do so. Therefore, man is required to claim back the glory and the authority taken away by bruising the head of the serpent; and manifest as light in the dark world. You are not created to be a slave to sin. It is not the will of God for you to be an adulterer, fornicator, liar, idolater, murderer, coward, drunkard, callous or to manifest any kind of works of the flesh. A man living this way belongs to the devil and such life also promotes the works of darkness. This also gives the evil one the exclusive right to cut short his destiny (bruising his feet). The ultimate desire of God is that your emergence should destroy the works of darkness and establish the kingdom of God so that holiness, righteousness and the will of God will become the order of the day. The Lord will destroy every power hindering your manifestation in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Exceptional Weekend!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 22nd Of April 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY The devil is always out to exploit your insincerity. You can never deny the truth about your real identity!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Let us draw near to God with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water." (Hebrews 10:22 NIV). ______________________________ Insincerity gives the evil one the required space to perform his enterprise in the life of a man. It protects and allows the works of darkness to thrive in any domain. Sincerity is an important virtue that brings God to your aid. In the wedding at cana in Galille; they were sincere to the fact that the wine was no longer available. This prompted the Lord to intervene on their behalf. When Naomi came back from the land of moab she did not present herself like someone who made it; she was sincere and acknowledged the fact that it is not right to be called Naomi but Mara because she lost everything. Her sincerity brought her life back to shape. The problem King Saul had, began when he failed to acknowledge his sins but wanted to appear honourable despite disobeying God before men. The devil used his insincerity as an opportunity to strip Him of his mandate. Similarly, the devil also used the insincerity of Gehazi to bring leprosy to his entire generation. The Lord detests a man who is not sincere. Irrespective of the way you choose to live the fact still remains that you can't decieve God or deny the truth you know about who you are. Don't be too big to acknowledge your sins and inadequacies. Be humble enough to live a transparent life before God and man. In this way the required help will come your way. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Impressive Friday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 21st Of April 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Most of what entices a man away from God's presence is more or less a mirage. No wise man will abandon reality for mere illusion!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning." (James 1:16-17 NKJV). ______________________________ Deception is the most effective tool in the hand of the devil to winning men to himself. Irrespective of his appearance at any point in time; the fact still remains that he came to steal, kill and destroy (John 10:10). If the devil appears like a destroyer no man will follow Him. However, he always appear like the angel of light with the aim of getting hold of men. Many people have found themselves in a situation which led them to say "had I know I would not have done this or that . . ." It is very important for you to know that anything whatsoever that is making you to go out of the will of God is from the devil. It may appear promising and good at all level but will eventually lead to death. If you have been saved you were bought with a price. Therefore, the devil is highly interested in you. Yield not to temptation. When the devil came to Eve, he deceived her to believing that she will be like God. Afterwards, they died according to what the Lord had said. Irrespective of what you choose to do with your life, be it good or bad, the words of the Lord is settled over it. Your peace, joy, rest and satisfaction in life will always be in the Lord; there is nothing for you outside God other than perdition. Abide in Him to enjoy His goodness in the land of the living. May you never lose out in the divine blessing and allocation of God for your life in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Glorious Thursday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 20th Of April 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY You can only receive what the Lord has prepared for you if and only if you abide in Him. The Lord will always honour your love, commitment and faithfulness towards Him!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Then Naomi her mother in law said unto her, My daughter, shall I not seek rest for thee, that it may be well with thee?" (Ruth 3:1 KJV). ______________________________ The Lord can never forget the labour of your love towards Him. It is very possible that you have prayed to God over certain things and yet you have not received the desired answer from God despite your faithfulness and commitment. The Lord is taking notice of your perseverance as well as your deeds. This will surely be rewarded at the appointed time. Most times the Lord by His own way of doing things respond to the prayers of men at a time when they have even forgotten about it or tired of praying about it. He does it this way so that no one will boast or take glory over what He has done. The Lord does not want us to follow Him because of what He will do for us but because we love Him and abide with Him irrespective of what hsppens. He wants us to love Him as God. We read about Ruth who chose to follow God when He had not promised her anything. She threw her future and her precious past; -her god, people, family and kindred away for the sake of following God. Even when she least expected the Lord spoke through Naomi; "Shall I not seek rest for thee . . .?" The Lord is not ignorant of your love, commitment and faithfulness; don't bow to the pressure of going outside the will of God for your life. Rather give yourself away to God so as to discover what the Lord wants to do with your life. The Lord will glorify Himself in your life and usher you into your rest as you remain faithful to Him in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Inspired Wednesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 19th Of April 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY When situation gets out of hand; miracle becomes the only option. Each time the Lord steps into a matter; just like a dream He turns the situation around!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "WHEN the LORD brought back the captivity of Zion, We were like those who dream. Then our mouth was filled with laughter, And our tongue with singing. Then they said among the nations, "The LORD has done great things for them."" (Psalms 126:1-2 NKJV). ______________________________ The perfect will of God for everyone who gave his life to Christ is to be living a life that is characterized by miracles. The Lord works and walks mysteriously. He takes pleasure in proving Himself as the Almighty in life of men. Despite the fact that He gave us strength in every area of life so as to play our own part in what He wants to do in our lives, He does not want us to glory in our strength. We are expected to trust our entire life to Him and pray about everything concerning our lives and destinies. The Lord wants to be involved in every minute detail of our lives. This is because, we will not but always come to various point in life where our strength, intellect, wisdom, experience and every resource at our disposal will not do. At that point, miracle becomes the only option. The Lord showed his mighty act when he took the Israelites through the red sea, fed them with manna and caused their cloths and shoes not to wear out for about forty days. His act teaches them that man does not live by bread alone. When life situation brings you to the end of yourself; the only solution is to go back to God. Irrespective of the situation in your life you need a miracle. When it happens it will be like a dream. Just like a dream; the Lord will turn your situation around in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Miraculous Tuesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 18th Of April 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY What makes a man lazy is not his strength or the resources at his disposal but his will. It takes a willing heart to make something happen!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "If you are willing and obedient, you will eat the best from the land;" (Isaiah 1:19). ______________________________ "Will" is the virtue that distinguishes a lazy man from an industrious man. The vision of a man will amount to nothing or a mirage when it lacks will. When Adam misused this special virtue called "will" by disobeying God; the Lord cursed the land. From that very time, whatever we need in the land of the living will only come to us if we are willing to take deliberate effort to getting it. This creative power called "will" is highly esteemed by God who created us. It is one of the most important attribute you must submit to Him. The Lord saw the will in the lives of the men at the tower of babel. The fact that He believed its efficiency led to the diversity in culture and language as we have it this day (Gen 11:6). Everything is possible with God in support. In every unfavourable situation of life; your will can make significant difference. "If the ax is dull and its edge unsharpened, more strength is needed but skill will bring success." (Ecclesiastes 10:10). To keep the devil out of your life, get saved and also enjoy the promises of God for your life and destiny, you must be willing to submit yourself to Him and His will. If there is a lifestyle you earnestly detest your willingness applied in the direction of God's will for your life will turn the situation around for you. It is a curse to be lazy; nothing works in the life of a lazy man. Obedience to God as well as your willingness is vital to your blessedness in life. May you enjoy the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Blessed Week Ahead!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 17th Of April 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY The commitment of the Lord towards the fulfillment of His purpose in your life is revealed in the fact that His word is coming to you on daily basis as a living soul!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "For Zion's sake I will not hold My peace, And for Jerusalem's sake I will not rest, Until her righteousness goes forth as brightness, And her salvation as a lamp that burns." (Isaiah 62:1 NIV). ______________________________ Irrespective of what you have been through in life and how you have lived before now; the Lord is saying for your own sake He will not hold His peace. You are created for a purpose and planted for a reason. It is not just to add to the number of the people in the world. Your life carries divine specification that is why there can never be anyone who is just exactly as you are. Therefore, it is not profitable for the Lord if your life does not measure up to His expectation in the fulfillment of His purpose on earth. The Lord has invested so much on you and can never give up on you at this very point in time. He did so much to bring you this far; you did not die like many others. The kingdom of darkness did not prevail over your life. Your life is not entangled in a hopeless situation of life. The fact that you are still living speaks more of the interest of God in your life. The essence of all the Lord is doing in your life is for your righteousness to break forth as brightness and your salvation as lamp that burns. Submit your entire life to God; allow Him to do His good pleasure in your life. He has never gone back on His word nor will He now. Whatever the case may be with you; Come unto the one who promised never to leave nor forsake you. Your righteousness will shine out like the dawn and your salvation like a blazing torch in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Wonderful Worship Experience!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 16th Of April 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY You can only control your action not its consequence. Irrespective of the reaction of men to you; doing what is right is the wisdom of God!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Your wickedness will punish you; your backsliding will rebuke you. Consider then and realize how evil and bitter it is for you when you forsake the LORD your God and have no awe of me", declares the Lord, the LORD Almighty." (Jeremiah 2:19 NIV). _______________________________ There is always a corresponding reaction to every action. Irrespective of who you are you cannot run away from the consequence of your actions. A man may choose to pretend before men but not within his heart; his conscience will never leave him. Whenever you come across a man who refuses to listen to this 'God's messenger' called conscience you have seen a man destined for perdition; whose joy will be cut off at the prime of his age. The word of the Lord is coming to us on daily basis just because of the fact that there is an aftermath to everything we do. Wisdom demands that we put them to heart; to obey and live by them. Foolishness has become the order of the day since men tend to be wise and will not just submit to the words of God. This leads to various problems we are facing in our homes, relationships, businesses and so on. In your relationship with men learn how to swallow your pride to allow God's will to prevail. The devil will not but always want to perform His enterprise; you have to always subdue Him by accepting to reduce (losing your pride) even as Christ is glorified through your life (Humility). In this way you will be elevated above every form of reproach. The way of the Lord is the way of wisdom; you are not wise until you have learnt to do what is right irrespective of the behaviour of men around you. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Impressive Weekend!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 15th Of April 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Life's challenges are meant to bring out the most interesting part of the human life. Endurance is an important virtue if you must have testimonies over every challenge or problem!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "A woman giving birth to a child has pain because her time has come; but when her baby is born she forgets the anguish because of her joy that a child is born into the world." (John 16:21 NIV). _______________________________ Victory precedes every testimony while endurance is an integral path of every success you will have in life. Some experiences in life can be so painful; however, the more the pain the more the sweetness of the victory achieved over the pains. It is good for a man to live his entire live having an orientation that we cannot but have pains in this life and they are meant to come and to pass. The aftermath of every pain is gains everything being equal. God uses the life of men to write several things which will serve as a basis for men to trust, fear and believe Him for their entire lives. Your experience is a build up to your history as well as testimony. It is also meant to be a message that is able to inspire someone to believe God. Don't be ashamed to bear the pains of bearing your Cross least you lose your crown. What is your testimony in life? What can you say about your achievement so far? There is an aspect of endurance in every success. Even if your pain is that much your gains and victory is sure. Don't ever boycott the path with pains if that is the only legitimate path that is available. It is a thing to have a success it is another to have the required character to sustain it. Irrespective of your pains, acknowledge God and wait on Him to bring about the break through you earnestly desire. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Victorious Friday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 14th Of April 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Every work of the flesh prevents a man from manifesting as light as expected by God and also promotes the works of darkness in his life!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish." (Galatians 5:16-17 NKJV). _______________________________ The lust of the flesh promotes the works of darkness in the life of a man. Darkness has no place when the flesh is under absolute subjection. Several homes, relationships, friendship are having problem as a result of the work of darkness through the works of the flesh; like anger, sexual immorality, jealousy, selfish ambition, envy and so on. Several nations are wallowing in poverty as a result of works of darkness allowed to prevail through the works of flesh in the lives of leaders. Many people find themselves doing some things that they can never imagine doing. However, when caught in the web of the consequence of their action they attribute it to the devil. Of course, it was actually the devil that is at work but through the works of the flesh. Walking in the spirit is walking in the liberty where Christ makes free. It has to do with walking according to the leading of the Holy Spirit. A man can only destroy and defeat the works of darkness through life in the Spirit. Save your life, home, marriage, relationship, career, personality, integrity from the works of darkness by living in the Spirit; subjecting every thought and imagination in obedience to Christ. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Awesome Thursday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 13th Of April 2016 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Life will not give you everything you want; however, you are required to get whatever you need from life!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; he enables me to stand on the heights. He trains my hands for battle; my arms can bend a bow of bronze." (Psalms 18:33-34 NIV). _______________________________ It is not enough to have the desire to become great in life; taking responsibility in the direction of God's will strengthens you to taking the rightful place in life. The fact that life is a battle is an important reason why every man must be equipped to face the battle of life. The devil will not but want to destroy a man and make him miserable in every aspect of life. You must get ready to take your portion in life by force. After the fall of man the Lord stopped the land from giving food to men freely. Right from that very time it is required of man to take absolute responsibility to get whatever he wants from land. Therefore, you must be obedient and willing if you must eat the fruit of the Land. You will always come in contact with bow of bronze in various aspect of life. They will serve as both contemporary and ancient gate which will try to always stop you from walking in your high places. As you proceed on the pathway of destiny they will be many. Therefore, you must prepare to take responsibility to follow the Lord and be willing to learn from various experience he takes you through. A Student who does not pass a class repeats such a class. Try as much as possible not to fail in praying about everything and developing yourself spiritually. Don't boycott the dealing of God in your life nor be nonchalant about the situation of your life. Grow in grace so as to have strength to bend the bows of bronze. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Splendid Wednesday!!! |
