Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 29th Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY In prosperity our friends know us but in adversity we know our friends. Whatever the case maybe; your future is only secured in God alone!!! ********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Many will entreat the favor of a liberal man, and every man is a friend to him who gives gifts." (Proverbs 19:6 AMP). ___________________________ It is normal for people to focus their attention to you when they know you have something to offer and that you can solve their problems. It is only those who actually love you that can be part of your suffering and problems. In the actually sense, there are some point in life when God will want to deal with your directly to shift your focus away from men to Him and take you through the valley of life just to shape you into what He wants you to be. This valley experience will cut off those people whose relationship with you will be parasitic in nature. It is at this very stage of life that you will discover true friends, love and those who actually believe in what God wants to make out of your life. Irrespective of the behaviour of men towards you as a result of your your present situation; keep on believing what the Lord wants to make out of your life. Don't give up on yourself in the face of the rejection by men. Someone somewhere will definitely appreciate what you are made of. Try as much as possible not to also abandon other people in their own weakness. Don't forget; what goes around also comes around. In your own little way, bless and always encourage someone to get better in life. The Lord will make your life beautiful and also honour you in every areas of you have been rejected in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Glorious Wednesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? ________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 28th Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY There is a measure of God in the life of every man on earth. No man is actually totally bad or good; all men have the potentials to get better!!! ********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "I know all the things you do. I have seen your love, your faith, your service, and your patient endurance. And I can see your constant improvement in all these things. But I have this complaint against you." (Revelation 2:19-20a NLT). ___________________________ The Lord is teaching us an important lesson of life through the letters He wrote to the seven churches in the book of revelation Chapter 2 & 3. Despite the fact He had some issues with these churches; He took time to acknowledge and commend their good deeds first before presenting the issues He had with them. The presentation is more of a warning and a wake up call to getting better in their relationship with Him. Again the Lord is teaching us the way to love and relate with those around us. There is no waste in every creation of God. No man is perfect. You are not better in any way than anyone around you. You are just a product of grace and privilege. Therefore, treat everyone you come across with ultimate honour and respect. Speak more of their area of strength and encourage them to get better in the area of their weakness. When you criticize always make it constructive; knowing fully well that you are also a man with several limitations. Out of every adversity comes opportunity as they use to say. Don't ever look down on yourself, your children, wife/husband and people around you. Learn from your weakness to encourage yourself and your loved ones to launch into the grace of God to get better in life. With God having your back there is nothing called impossibilities. May the Love of the Lord which is the bound of perfection rule your heart in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Lovely Tuesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 27th Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY The promises of God remains intact even when every other thing fights against it. All men who received the promise were those who believed it even when it seemed unrealistic!!! *********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?" (Numbers 23:19 NIV). ________________________________ The Lord is not like men who fails. However, not all men actually want to fail. No matter how wonderful a man appears to be; he is still a man who also needs the help of God to live a successful life on earth. Therefore, a man has laid a foundation of failure in life if his driving force takes root from the words of men. No matter how big and complicated the situation of your life may be; it can never change what the Lord has said concerning you. Always remember has been God existing even before you came into the consciousness of yourself and the nature of the problems in your life cannot stop Him from being God. What you need to do is to always discover and believe what God has said concerning you. Don't ever limit what God can do in your life because of your current situation. Those situations of life are meant to validate your character towards every word of God. Whether you will still keep trusting and believing when it seems as if it is not coming to pass. What the Lord has said is not limited to the good things He spoke concerning your life and destiny but also what he said concerning His second coming, the consequence of sin both on earth and eternity. He has no record of failure; He is ever known for His faithfulness and righteousness towards His words. The Lord will fulfill all His promises over your life in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Outstanding Week Ahead!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 26th Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY No man will ever be interested in an enterprise which runs at a loss. Even God will only care and invest in a productive enterprise!!! *********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit." (John 15:2 NKJV). ________________________________ Every man created by God is created for a purpose. This is established in the fact that you have no contribution in your creation. It took some time before you came into the consciousness of who you are. It is only God who can actually explain why your are male/female, tall/short, fair/dark skin. He was the one who determined your age, parent and origin. You are actually created to fit into the master plan of God on earth. Understanding purpose begins from knowing the fact that your creation is not for fun. The Lord is so gracious enough to provide all you need to fulfill purpose on earth. Your purpose in life defines your role and responsibility. Your attitude towards your responsibility determines your productivity. As you so much desire not to be running your business at a loss so also God will never want your life to be a wasted investment. Your existence will only be relevant to God if and only if your life is productive to Him. What are you living for? What is your own personal contribution to God's purpose? Are you a blessing to your immediate contact? The Lord will have every reason to keep you alive, bless you and shield you from all harm if you make your life a peculiar asset of productivity in His hand. The Lord will give you the grace to always make your existence count in His presence in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Awesome Worship Experience!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 25th Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY The Devil will always take advantage of every good thing you fail to do to perform his enterprise in your domain. Naturally, a man is entitled to many stripes in the presence of God when he fails do what is right despite knowing it!!! *********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Who is going to harm you if you are eager to do good?" (1 Peter 3:13 NIV). ________________________________ No one can harm you, not even the devil; if you choose to always do what is good and right. The devil always gain ground or entrance into the life of a man majorly through those aspect of his life that is wrong. Some parents lack moral standard to guide their children unto the right path of life due to their inability to provide for the needs of their wards. This most of the time gives the devil a foothold to win several children to himself. The evil one is not ignorant of our needs. Therefore, he puts in place some of his agents to provide those needs with the aim to win men to himself. He is very aware of the flops and the shortcomings in your life. Always try as much as possible to cherish and honour your spouse. There are people who will readily give what you cannot even afford just to lay hold of him or her. Try within the limit of your capability to give the best you can to your spouse in the manner justifiable before God. Righteousness is the only virtue that gives a man confidence in the presence of God. Every element of unrighteousness in your life will always boost the assurance of the devil that he will eventually have you at the end of the day. Responding to God by doing His will alone is the only way to render the works of the evil one powerless in your life. Grace to always do what is right at all times to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Splendid Weekend!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 24th Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY The Devil will not but always contend with every gift of God in your life. A man will be prone to loosing the gift of God in his life, if the Devil has a foothold in him!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown." (Revelation 3:11b NIV). _____________________________ The Devil is not happy with any thing good in your life. His prime concern is to steal and kill the source of every good thing in your life (John 10:10). The Devil unlike men never give up. In as much you are still living and you have at least a singular hope of something good to come; then, your life is a major area of interest. The devil in his principle doesn't worry about a man who is still toiling but a man at the verge of success or entering his rest. In Gen 26:19-21 Isaac dug a well which discovered fresh water but they strove with him over it. This opposition did not come while he was digging but at the point of success. This is how the evil one works. Don't be complacent about the gift and the works of God in your life. Be at alert, because the devil always have opportunity each time man sleeps (Matt 13:25). The evil one through his agents will not but always want to destroy your home, relationship, enterprise, ministry, academics and every wonderful thing in your life which is a major source of joy to you. As a husband/wife cherish your home and relationship. Don't give room to allow the foothold of the devil. Be closely knitted in the Love of Christ. In your relationship with God; don't allow anything to come in between you and Him. Hold on to God and live your life according to His principle as presented to you in His words. Every effort the Devil is making over your life will be in vain in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Victorious Friday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 23rd Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY No man is actually free or neutral in life; if you are not bearing the cross you will definitely be bearing the weight of sin. Everyone of us is running a race; the type of race before you determines your final destination in eternity!!! *********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily hinders our progress. And let us run with endurance the race that God has set before us." (Hebrews 12:1 NLT). _____________________________ There is actually nothing new in life; your experience is not different from that of those who have gone ahead of you. The heroes of faith were not angels, they were human with unique problems and various limitations of life. In the midst of all their experiences they put aside every weight of sin and ran with endurance the race set before them. We read about them today because they won the race. They serve as witnesses to all of us. Therefore, irrespective of your experience you have no excuse. The standard is that; if you must win the race, you must set aside everything that is slowing you down to fulfilling God's will and purpose. It may be in form of sin, worldly pleasure, pride of life and the likes. No matter how busy you are; running here and there seeking for bread; don't forget that, your life is not all about bread and material possession. If you will not run in vain, and it has also become imperative for you to make eternity with God; you must run with endurance the race set before you through the ancient path of righteousness. The race and the path has never been easy; hence the need to run with endurance like Joseph, Daniel, Jesus, Paul etc. Grace for successful pilgrimage to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Superb Thursday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 21st Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Anything or thought that wants to separate you from what the Lord has given you; can never be from Him. Only a man who lacks understanding will ignore the gift of God in his life!!! *********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "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 1:17 NKJV). _____________________________ Every gift of God in your life is a perfect gift for you. The Lord who designed your destiny knows what is best for you. That is why you must always seek God for everything you need in life. However, when the Lord is gracious enough to bless your life be it with a gift, talent, wife/husband, children and the likes; guide what He has given you jealously. That very gift of God in your life which seems not appealing to you is what someone is earnestly craving for in prayers. We must all understand that the earth is not heaven where everything is perfect. There is no man who has everything. No man is perfect; accepting our differences through the love of God is what makes us perfect. Everything given to you by God is meant to fill the loopholes in your life. Don't allow the devil to deceive you that there is something better than what the Lord has given you. You have to be passionate about the will of God for your life; that is the only sure way to be what God wants you to be. Grace to desire and cherish the gift of God for your life to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Delightful Tuesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 20th Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Nothing can be better than what God has given you. Seeking an alternative is a way to bring troubles into your life!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "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 1:17 NKJV). _____________________________ The best gift of your life is what the Lord has given you. It begins with how you were created. The Lord created you perfectly; in terms of your height, voice, sex, skin colour and body shape. Your uniqueness among God's creation absolutely depends on these attributes. Another important gift of God for your life is your wife/husband - your covenant life partner(Prov 18:22). The orientation the Lord expects you to have about your partner is that he/she is the best among all other creation irrespective of the shortcomings in his/her life. God unlike men does not make mistakes; there is no variableness in Him. If He was the one who issued the gift to you; you have gotten the best. Therefore, stop looking for trouble, settle down and enjoy your lot in the land of the living (Eccl 9:9). Children are also among the special gift of God. They don't come by human effort; some who are highly influential don't have this gift. Irrespective of how they may appear to be; cherish this wonderful gift of God in your life. They are created to fit uniquely into God's purpose. Similarly, we are created for service to mankind. There is a unique gift of God which manifests as a unique profession in your life. Don't look down on the gift of God in your life. Fulfill your purpose by appreciating and making best use of what the Lord has designed for your life. Grace to desire and cherish the gift of God for your life to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Glorious Week Ahead!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 19th Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY There is no disappointment when there is no appointment. A man who jokes with the appointment of God (salvation) over all mankind; will be disappointed in eternity!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "For God has not appointed us to [incur His] wrath [He did not select us to condemn us], but [that we might] obtain [His] salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah)" (1 Thessalonians 5:9 AMP). _____________________________ The Lord is so gracious to present the grace of salvation to all men. It is freely made available for us. "how shall we escape if we ignore such a great salvation? (Heb 2:3a). We are all not ignorant of the position and the stand of God over sin. We can't deny the fact that we know the requirement of God for our lives and the consequence of disobedience to His word. The Lord on His part creates a space for every man who gives his life to Him. Therefore, you have a space and wonderful allocation in God. Part of his appointment is that you should accept the offer of salvation presented to you. The implication of accepting salvation is that you will live a holy life and walk on the path of righteousness. All men who fail to honour the appointment of God; irrespective of what they claim to do for God; will be disappointed in eternity. The Lord said: "And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." (Matthew 7:23). May you never be disappointed in the presence of God in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Inspired Worship Experience!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 18th Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY In the midst of faults and failures; you must learn how to keep going by always turning to God. Irrespective of how many times you have fallen or gone astray; the fact still remains that God still loves you!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "And he arose and came to his father. But when he was still a great way off, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him. "And the son said to him, "Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight, and am no longer worthy to be called your son." (Luke 15:20-21 NKJV). _____________________________ Forgiveness is already available for every offender who acknowledges his shortcomings and turn to God for help. No matter how terrible a man is, God will never give up on him. It is good for all men not to rule out the possibility of falling; but when it happens always remember that God still loves you. Knowing this will help you to get back on track much more quickly. The prodigal son went back because he knows that his father still loves him. Most times, we take the grace of God over our lives for granted and sin against Him. Even in this, get up and try again! The Lord is not ignorant of your weakness; you only need to ask for grace. Each time a man genuinely turn to God and repent from his sin; he has succeeded in reducing the strength of the devil by some factor. Also, there would be an addition lamp in the hand of the Lord to illuminate the dark world. You are created by God for a purpose. He can't just afford to lose you. From where you have derailed respond to His voice which says "Come back Home" Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Thrilling Weekend!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 17th Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Men will not but always try and make wonderful effort to make things happen, however, everything is only possible with God!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "For with God nothing shall be impossible." (Luke 1:37 KJV). _____________________________ Nothing is actually automatic in life. Your life is not even your own. You have no idea of how you came to life. You did not choose your parent, date of birth, sex and your origin. The Lord, the master of the universe, created you so wonderful without your knowledge or interference. What actually makes you think that you can make things happen without the help of the Lord who designed your life? Every record of success in your life was actually a possibility because the Lord made it possible. There is nothing called brilliant, skillful, talented, genius and the likes without the grace of God. That mad man on the street was equally born the same way you were born. Your life is an epitome of the Lord's doing. Every good intention of your heart will only be possible with God having your back. Every record of failure in the life of a man can never change the supremacy of God and the fact that He does not have any record of failure. It is true that you have tried so much to achieve some things which tends to be an impossibility. Don't be weary neither be discouraged; you only need to turn to God. Always acknowledge the God of all possibilities in all your endeavour. Put all your effort under His pre-eminence and His grace will be sufficient for you. By the virtue of God's mercy your impossibilities is becoming possible in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Refreshed Friday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 16th Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY The presence of God is pivotal to the success of any enterprise right from its inception. The Lord is the only one who knows the end right from the beginning!!! *********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last." (Revelation 22:13 KJV). _____________________________ Whatever the Lord starts through you will surely come to accomplishment. What will fail is that which has no foundation in God the Creator of the entire universe. He is before all and will also be the end of all. Can a creation stop his creator? When you are in divine partnership with God, nothing will be able to stop you. The Devil always operates like the law of gravity which always tend to pull down every entity while the Lord operates like the law of grace which always serve as a resistance against forces which tends to pull down. You have not overcome the obstacle on the pathway of destiny until the Lord who is the Alpha goes ahead of you and when there is an Alpha there is an Omega. Irrespective of your experience the greatest consolation of your life is the presence of God. It is an error for any man to think that he is too wise or smart enough to need God in whatever he does. Every man will not but come to a point in his life when his resources, money, strength, knowledge and experience will be too irrelevant to solve his life's problem. Allow the Lord to lead you as you advance on the pathway of glorious destiny. Let Him take pre-eminence as you lay all down at His feet. The Grace to live a worthy life which accommodates the Presence of the Lord to us all in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Outstanding Thursday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 15th Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY There is a limit to what a man can do for himself. No man is actually created to be self sufficient!!! *********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "When Jesus saw him and knew how long he had been ill, he asked him, "Would you like to get well?" "I can't, sir," the sick man said, "for I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is starred up. While I am trying to get there, someone else always gets there ahead of me."" (John 5:5-6 NLT). _______________________________ God is the only one who is self sufficient. No matter how wonderful a man may appear to be; he desperately needs help in certain areas of his life. Every man created by God needs a help at every point in time in life. At birth, when at the state of innocence; we were carried, fed and guided into various ways of life. This shows that we have been helped right from our birth even to this point of our lives. Nobody suddenly rose to stardom, every man will always need a ladder or a lift to get to the top. Some men will bear the pains to climb the ladder themselves as the Lord sends help on their path while others will climb through those who have attained a satisfactory summit. However, irrespective of how far the Lord has taken you in life, there is a help you need at this point in time. The Lord is asking you: would you like to get well? There is no doubt that you have some records of failure from several attempt to help yourself or to seek for help. Submit your entire life to God the only source of help. He is not ignorant of how long you have been in your current state. Release yourself to Him as He carry you on the lift of divine grace. The Lord by the virtue of His mercy will help you and carry you on the lift of divine grace in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Amazing Wednesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 14th Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY There is no man created by God that is without a loophole. Each time the Lord is set to have mercy on a man; He fills the loopholes of his life!!! *********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Now as Jesus passed by, He saw a man who was blind from birth. And His disciples asked Him, saying, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?" Jesus answered, "Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but that the works of God should be revealed in him." (John 9:1-3 NKJV). ______________________________ God did not create a man who has everything. Despite the fact that we are fearfully and wonderfully made; there is still a loophole in our lives. When you look at your life you will find something that others have which is missing in your life. These loopholes are those things deliberately omitted in the life of a man by the Lord in a bid to make Himself Big in his life. They are also meant to humble us to show us the essence of submitting our lives to God. The Lord is the only one who knows what is best for you. He is the creator who knows you much more than you know yourself. You will need Him in your life at various stages of life to fill the loopholes in it. There is a divine timing and program for your life; when the saviour is knocking at the door of your heart do not harden your heart. The Lord actually wants to come into your life to fill the loopholes. What is actually missing in your life? What have you been trying to achieve that is so difficult for you? Just like the man in the bible verse you need divine encounter with the saviour. The Lord by the virtue of His mercy will fill the loopholes in your life in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Splendid Tuesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 13th Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY To offend a man is quite easy; however, apologizing to accept the fact that you are wrong requires humility and courage!!! *********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received. Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love." (Ephesians 4:1-2 NIV). _______________________________ Ensuring peace in a domain, in every relationship and with God is an integral part of your calling as a child of God. We are created differently and so there will always be differences among sets of individuals. A man who fails in his relationship with men will definitely fail with God. It takes love and humility to have a successful relationship with men. When a man is not humble it will always be very difficult for him to spot his fault in any issue. His level of unbrokenness will make him unteachable. Therefore, the full expression of God's nature will be missing in his life. The Lord detests the offering of a man who does not cherish peaceful co-existence with other men (Matt 5:23-24). There is a measure of God in the life of any man created by God. Honour and treat others with respect as unto the lord. Be humble enough to promote peace with everyone you come in contact with. The Lord will give us the grace to humble ourselves in every situation we find ourselves in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Stunning Week Ahead!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 12th Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY There is no disgrace when there is no grace; the measure of grace a man has received will be commensurate to his disgrace when he messes up with it!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men. It teaches us to say "No" to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age," (Titus 2:11-12 NIV). _______________________________ The grace of salvation made available to all mankind through the Lord Jesus is meant to save a man from being disgraced both on earth and in eternity. This grace is presented to us in form of the truth that is available in the words of God. This grace is freely made available to teach you to say NO to all things contrary to the will of God for your life. You cannot run away from the truth you have known. You are not ignorant of what is right according to the will of God. You can't deny the fact that you have continuous opportunity to get things right with God. Each time you choose to say YES to ungodliness and worldly passion that is when you set yourself on the path which leads to disgrace. It is possible for two people to commit the same offence or sin and the name of one of them will fill the pages of the newspaper. The major difference is the measure of the grace of God both have received. Who are you? What measure of God's grace have you receive? If you are not too big to say yes to ungodliness and worldly pleasure you will not be too big to suffer reproach and disgrace. Why will you suffer disgrace when the grace of God for salvation is freely available for you? May the Lord help and quicken us to respond to Him in every aspect of our lives in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Gracious Worship Experience!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 11th Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Your soul is the most precious gift of God in your life. Getting the entire world is not commensurate to losing your soul!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?" (Matthew 16:26 NKJV). _______________________________ Your soul is the real you. The ultimate gift of God in your life. If only you can release it to the devil; he will give you just anything. It is so precious that you can't exchange it with anything. Gaining the whole world in most cases may not necessarily mean acquiring the wonderful things of the world but may rather be a way of meeting an acute need or an intense desire at a point in time. At every cross road of decision making there is a watch over your life. In every battle for supremacy between God and the devil in your heart; who takes pre-eminence? Every pleasure you derive by selling your soul to the devil is temporal and does not go beyond the earth. A Man who lost his soul is the one who lost everything. Submit your life to God; It is only in Him that your life is secured. Don't be deceived; all you know and heard about eternity will soon be a reality whether you believe it or not. The Lord will give us all the grace to submit our entire being to Him in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Flourishing Weekend!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 8th Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY When the expectation you have over a man becomes high their offence towards you will be more tensed. The highest degree of offence will always come from those you love so dearly!!! *********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "And above all things have fervent love for one another, for "love will cover a multitude of sins." (1 Peter 4: ._______________________________ Not everyone have direct access to your heart. There are some people whose behaviour is just enough to break your heart. It is on this basis that they are called your loved ones. They are so close to you to the point that they know your weakness as well as your strength. They can easily predict what you will do under certain circumstances. When they accuse you; they hit the main target just because they know you. They show you what you are really made of. If you allow their submissions to fall on a fertile ground in your heart, it will make you a better person. No one can give the best advice like the one who has a deep understanding of both the area of your strength and weakness. Take the advantage of all dealings from all close associates. Let the love of God rule in your heart. Be humble enough to allow them to bring the best out of your life. Don't run away from every dealing meant to shape your life into what God wants you to be. Every Criticism be it constructive or destructive; learn from it to make yourself a better person. However, when dealing with men try as much as possible not to hurt their feelings. Love is the key to winning the most troublesome fellow. May the Love of Christ dwell richly in us all in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Delightful Wednesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 5th Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY If everyone is happy with you, then surely you have made many compromises in your life and If you are happy with everyone surely you have ignored many faults of others!!! ********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received. Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love." (Ephesians 4:1-2 NIV). _______________________________ It is practically not possible for everyone to like or to be happy with you. If you are a friend to both bad and good people; it is an indication that you have no standard. If your lifestyle is a type that promotes righteousness and also has a soft point for unrighteousness you can never live to please God. Some people try to cover the sins of men and also choose not to say something about their evil ways in the name of showing love. Every true child of God will always have both spiritual and moral standard. Ultimately, love is displayed when a man graciously tells a fellow wicked man that it will not be well with him. It is normal for men to hate or dislike those who speak the truth against their evil deed. However, to balance it up, we are not expected to ignore men with their shortcomings. Our love is needed to help them get things right. The real and true Love is best displayed when it is shown to someone who seems not to deserve it. It is more about losing and not getting back. It is sacrificial. If you are called according to His purpose the Lord will not but take you through a process of teaching you how to love even in a difficult situation. This is because God Himself is Love. The Lord will give us the needed grace not to fall short of His standard in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Lovely Worship Experience!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 3rd Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY One of those things that makes life interesting is the fact that you cannot know everything about it!!! *********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Sow your seed in the morning, and at evening let not your hands be idle, for you do not know which will succeed, whether this or that, or whether both will do equally well." (Ecclesiastes 11:6 NIV). _______________________________ Life is a mystery. Most of its events is beyond human comprehension. However, the mysterious part of it presents life in general to every mankind like a game. This is why men will not but continue to hope, try even in the face of difficult situation and when various life's activity are not yielding any positive result. Most times, even when your desires come to reality, it will never be the exact manner you think. God uses most of these life's situations to show us our limitations as men. Therefore, in our pilgrimage the Lord has designed an aspect of fellowship meant to assist in leading us through the pathway of our glorious destiny. The idea of man fellowshipping with God initiated in the garden of eden is still very much relevant today. The truth about life is that it is so unpredictable. Irrespective of whatever position or level you find yourself; you can ever be too big, too sufficient to a point that you don't need God in your life. No man is too rich to become poor nor too high to be grounded. When you see a prayerless man or the one who takes his Creator for granted; you have seen a foolish man who approaches the future as He knows it. "Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and your plans will succeed." (Prov 16:3). The Lord will enable you to find grace in this wilderness of life in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Gracious Friday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 2nd Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Irrespective of the type of the gate confronting a man on the pathway of his glorious destiny, the most important requirement before any gate in life is the nature of God in his life!!! ********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Lift up your heads, O you gates; be lifted up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in. Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle." (Psalms 24:7-8 NIV). _______________________________ Gate is referred to as a movable barrier. When a gate is shut against a man, it becomes a barrier to his life. No matter how ancient a gate may appear to be, the fact still remains that the King of Glory is the creator of all things. Various resistance in the life of a man will remain until the emergence of God's presence in his life. That is when he becomes unstoppable. Every gate in life is meant to check or ask for vivid requirement before gaining access into a domain. Even if you so much desire to see God you have to pass through the narrow gate. Therefore, you need the mercy of God which is greater than merit to scale through every gate that comes your way. Despite the fact that several gates of life have stopped most men, not the King of Glory who is the maker of all things. What is that gate standing against your life? The gate will only be lifted up for you if and only if the virtue of the King of glory is in your life and you resemble Him in His attributes. You need God to stay happy and to have a remarkable progress in every aspect of your life. The Lord will remove every barrier to your progress in every aspect of life in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Terrific Thursday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? Happy New Month _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 1st Of July 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY You can't seek vanity and still seek the Lord at the same time. It is only those who truly seek Him that will see and reign with Him!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully." (Psalms 24:3-4 NKJV). _______________________________ No man can run the race of heaven successfully absent minded. A man with a divided heart will eventually lose out in the race. The Lord can never share His glory with any man. A man who truly wants to follow God must lay down his entire life at His feet. Irrespective of what you do for God, He knows you and what is in your heart. Many people use the service they rendered in the name of God to fulfill their own lust and evil desires. The Lord is not ignorant of your motive. If your motives tend towards vanity you have no place in Him. It is always good for a man to examine himself each time he wants to move closer to anything that has to do with God. Are you holy? Is your motive pure? Do you really love the Lord? Is your heart right with God? Don't you have idol in your heart? How much of your time do you give to God? Are you not spending most of your days on what does not have any eternal value? Vanity is vanity because it is not really part of your life! I have never seen a man who is too busy to die when his time comes. A day is coming when you will not have any excuse but to approach his holy hill. The gate will only be lifted up for you if and only if you resemble the King of Glory in His attributes. The Lord will give us the grace and wisdom to submit ourselves totally to Him in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Impressive Month Ahead!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 30th Of June 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY The Lord is the pivot on which everything on earth stands. Nothing will work effectively on earth without the support of the Lord!!! *********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "The earth is the LORD's, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it;" (Psalms 24:1 NIV). _______________________________ Everything in the world and its entirety belongs to God. The earth itself is the Lord's. A man can choose to run to anywhere on earth you can't run away from God. Wherever you wish as a person to reach on the face of the earth can only be possible through the help of the Lord who designed your destiny. Everything you can see as well as your imagination belongs to Him. What do you want in life? The Lord is the rightful owner of all things. He is the only one who blesses without adding sorrow to it. He is the creator of all kings, and all great men who exist. Irrespective of how great we may appear to be, we belong to the Lord. He has decreed the numbers of our days and set a limit that we can pass. Our creation was never a mistake. The Lord remains the master of the universe. He is the king of the earth. Your life is not your own; live to honour the Lord all the days of your life. Always reverence Him in all your dealings. As you Honour the Lord, He will destroy everything that is walking against your progress in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Progressive Tuesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 28th Of June 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY What you manifest is a function of who rules or take pre-eminence in your life. The sinful nature will not but manifest in the life of a man until he accepts being hidden in Christ!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory." (Colossians 3:3-4 NIV). _______________________________ The best way to cripple the works of the sinful nature that manifests regularly in your life is to permanently accept to abide in Christ. To be inside Christ is to allow Him to take pre-eminence of your life. This is done by laying down all your desires and aspiration at His feet. When the life of a man is not hidden in Christ; his own members (Sinful nature Gal 5:19-21) such as fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, covetousness, idolatry, anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication, lying and all other deeds of the old man is what will be manifesting in his life. Therefore, it is very essential that our lives be hidden so that the above attributes will not be seen in us but rather the attributes of the NEW MAN which manifest kindness, humility of mind, meekness, longsuffering, forbearing, forgiveness and most importantly love which is the bond of perfection. It is only when we are hidden in Him that we can appear with Him in glory because our sinful nature cannot inherit the kingdom of God. Irrespective of the level we have attained in life, let us always respond to the spirit of God. This is the only way to remain in Him so as to be a true reflection of His glory. The Lord will give us the grace to always yield to His will in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Refreshed Worship Experience!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 27th Of June 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY In the midst of all disappointments and discouragement the best thing to do is to appreciate the Eternal King in adoration and keep faith alive in anticipation of His wonderful works in your life!!! *********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Be exalted, O LORD, in your strength; we will sing and praise your might." (Psalms 21:13 NIV). _______________________________ As you move on in life, you will not but be coming across things that will be discouraging you most especially at the verge of wonderful success. When this happens, look up to the One who reigns forever and whose dominion is from generation to generation. Those disappointments and discouragement were actually meant to cripple your faith and to also incorporate bitterness in your heart. When bitterness creeps into your heart it cripples your confidence in the Lord and ushers you into a state of hopelessness. In the midst of every resistance that surrounds your life keep moving as you continue to sing the praise of the Lord; looking up to Him alone and trusting His might to bring to pass His precious plans concerning you. Take time to praise Him in the beauty of His holiness. Worship the Lord whose strength and capacity is at it very best in the weakness of men. The Lord will magnify Himself in your life in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Flourishing Weekend!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 26th Of June 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY When the Lord is set to do something, He walks and works in a mysterious way. Miracle only happens in the life of a man when God takes him through an usual undesirable path of life!!! *********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a mother's womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things." (Ecclesiastes 11:5 NIV). ____________________________ Miracle is anything that happens and it glory is ascribed only to God the maker of all things. It always happen in the presence of man's incapacitation. All those who received their miracles did that through faith. Right from the creation of the world the works of the Lord doesn't go in line with the calculation of men. When you or people around you can trace the step of a particular achievement in your life before it happens know that it is your own work not God. His path is always hidden until it becomes a testimony. No man can predict the trends of God's work in the life of a man living according to His purpose. There is a limit to what a man can do for himself because he has a shallow or no knowledge about himself or his future. There is no other way to be happy in Jesus other than to trust and obey Him. The way the Lord takes men through most of the time is very tough and difficult. However, He knows what is best for us. Let us humbly follow Him and submit to His will for our lives. Keep your faith alive irrespective of what your experience is. The Lord will mysteriously perform great miracles that will surprise all men in your life in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Astonishing Friday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 25th Of June 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Despite all you've been through in life the fact still remains that the number of years you have spent so far speaks more of your days of opportunities!!! ********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom." (Psalms 90:12 KJV). _______________________________ Irrespective of what your experience is in life, you cannot run away from your age. Every breaking of the day indicates an advancement in age and also presents a new opportunity for a better life. However, no matter how wonderful your life is, there is a boundary you cannot pass. "Man's days are determined; you have decreed the number of his months and have set limits he cannot exceed." (Job 14:5). The old men of this day were once children as well as vibrant youths of their own days. Even so, by the virtue of God's grace you will also become old. There is a stage a man gets to and everything about him begins to depreciate. He goes into an era where he will be needing support for his vision, teeth, strength, health, posture and many other aspect of his life. Also, his meal goes into specialization and his hair becomes gray. God uses all these to tell all men that a time is coming when you will be approaching the limit of your life. No man can be great forever. Make best use of your opportunities. Irrespective of what your life is; it can never change God's personality nor reduce his pre-eminence over the affairs of men. As long as you live, you have the grace to repent from your evil ways and get things right with God. Strive to make your existence count by living to fulfill the course of the Lord. This is the most important wisdom for living. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Refreshed Thursday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 24th Of June 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY There is always a table (platform for the manifestation of God's glory) reserve for all men who patiently and faithfully wait upon God through their valley experience. All men who actually became great for the course of the Lord never did without the valley experience!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; . . . You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. " (Psalms 23:4-5a NIV). _______________________________ In Ps 40:1-3 David describes his experience; that he waited patiently for the Lord. The Lord heard him, brought him out of horrible pit, set his feet on the rock and gave him a new song. The trend is the same for all great men. The life of a man can be described to be like two mountains having a valley in-between. The first mountain is the mountain of revelation where God unfold His precious plan for your life to you. The valley between the two mountains represent various process the Lord takes your life through in a bid to bring to pass what He planned for you. The second mountain is called mountain of fulfillment. The life of Joseph best describes this; the mountain of his dreams, the valley of his slavery and being a prisoner, the mountain of his manifestation as a prime minister. Therefore, before a table will be set for a man, he must accomplish his valley experience. This valley is the valley of brokenness meant to make a man to lose sight of himself (every confidence in self in terms of his strength and ability). Here, the Lord opens the eyes of the man to his limitations and reduce him to nothing just to empower and make his life to conform to His purpose. Don't run away from the process the Lord is taking you through; there is a prepared table ahead of you. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Inspired Wednesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 23rd Of June 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Nothing came into existence without the words of God; therefore, every dream without regard for God's word will be aborted!!! *********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men." (John 1:3-4 NIV). _______________________________ Everything that existed and will ever be, depends absolutely on the words of God. The earlier you accept that you can never outrun God in any situation of life, the better it will be for you. Every possibility in life is a product of what the Lord has said. (Lam 3:37) Jesus made a description of two builders in (Matt 7:24-27). Which represents the different categories of people we have in the world. There will always be people who have high regard for the words of God and those who will be nonchalant about it. The labour of a man is fruitless until he labours according to the words of the Lord. Many people are running today but not all will get to the intended destination. The desire and thoughts of many people will perish on the platform of imagination because the inspiration and driving force behind all their pursuit in life does not take its source or foundation in the words of God. Despite the fact that the words of the Lord at every point in time will never be in support or submit to the sinful nature; it is the only source of life. The best way to make progress on the pathway of destiny is to submit yourself to the words of the Lord meant to pattern your ways according to His divine plan. The Lord will deliver us from every fruitless walk and work in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Fruitful Tuesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 22nd Of June 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Not all men can be regarded as fathers. The dignity of manhood is only exhibited in men who fulfill their duties as fathers!!! ********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Each man will be like a shelter from the wind and a refuge from the storm, like streams of water in the desert and the shadow of a great rock in a thirsty land." (Isaiah 32:2 NIV). _______________________________ Fathers are men who have sense of responsibility. There will be a great loophole in the life of a child who lacks the impact of a father. The expectation of God for all men is highlighted below: 1. A shelter from the wind: The man should be a shelter in every situation of unrest. He must be able to guide his home against every wind that sweeps men away from the purpose of God. 2. A refuge from the storm: the man is expected to be the priest of his home by declaring the counsel of God to his wards. He should be able to provide satisfactory relief under God in the time of storm. 3. A stream of water in the desert: The Man is expected to promptly meet the (spiritual, financial, academic etc) needs of his wards as at when due. 4. The shadow of a great rock in a thirsty land: He must live up to be a remarkable blessing and a man that cannot be ignored. We do not just call God our father. He has lived up to the above requirement. As a man the Lord also wants you to measure up within the limit of your capacity. As a woman the Lord is opening your eyes to what you should expect in a man and prayerfully make it possible in your home. A home is naked and unsecured until the head (man) comes in conformity to the standard required by God. A man is very sick when he becomes irrelevant in his own home. The Lord will give us the grace to be what He wants us to be in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Glorious Week Ahead!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 21st Of June 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY The truth will always be presented to you at every junction of decision making; accepting the truth is the only way to life!!! *********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Buy the truth and do not sell it; get wisdom, discipline and understanding." (Proverbs 23:23 NIV). _______________________________ You will not but always come to various critical point of decision making which can make or mar your life. God is so gracious to make suggestions that will make you to be on the safe side through His spirit. Do not neglect His counsel no matter how it appears to be. Each time you neglect the counsel of God and His will for your life; you have succeeded in yielding yourself to every enterprise of the evil one. Accepting the truth will not only save you today but will also serve as protective shield for your life and destiny. When it is presented to you; it is expected of you to take it personal. Your relationship with God matters even much more than your ministry. Allow the word of God to work in your life so as to ensure conformity to Christ's nature. The Lord will give us the grace to always accept and respond promptly to the Truth in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Superb Worship Experience !!! |
