Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 12th Of June 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY A man who desires mercy for his life launches himself into an unlimited grace of God. The one who focuses his life based on merit limits his life to the best of His ability which can take him no where!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Look upon me and be merciful to me, As Your custom is toward those who love Your name." (Psalms 119:132 NKJV). _______________________________ When a man thinks that he can exempt God in any aspect of his life, he limits himself only to what man can do. The life of a man who dwells on mercy has an unlimited scope of God's goodness. Despite the fact that the Lord gave each and everyone of us ability to do great exploit in life; he wants us to operate under the circumference of His grace. This is because there is a limit to what men can do for us and what we can do for ourselves. Money is good but as good as it is; it places limit to a man's life. A man who has $1000 cannot purchase anything whose price is more than $1000 in the market. No matter how much you have, when you start spending it, its value diminishes. This shows the limitation of money. There is no limit to the Grace of God. Money can finish and men can lose courage to help but the Lord will always be available at any point in time. He is the ever present help in the time of trouble. When the Lord has mercy on you, He makes men to work on your behalf. There is no level a man can reach in life that he will not need the mercy of God. Submit all your struggle at His feet and ask for His mercy. His mercy is all you need to transform the years of your labour to favour. The Lord will look upon you and be merciful unto you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Amazing Friday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 10th Of June 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Contentment is a virtue that cannot be bought with money; if you have contentment, you can never be trapped in the deceitfulness of riches!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "But godliness with contentment is great gain." (1 Timothy 6:6 KJV). _______________________________ The glory of the world always come with the fear of loosing it. Therefore, men run here and there to get more things for themselves. However, in the course of trying to get the good things of life at all cost, many are caught in the wind of deceitfulness of riches. Many lost their faith, commitment and consecration in God on the account of making ends meets. Any man who doesn't want to miss out in God's plan and purpose must look up to God for help so as not to fall into temptation when he begins to experience increase in every aspect of life. In principle, the more the things you gather around yourself the more your worries over them. Therefore, the more you increase the more the grace you will need to maintain balance in doing the will of God and managing the resources at your disposal. Many never planned to be having extra marital affair, staying late at night and exhibiting strange behaviour until they started having money. Submit yourself always to God and know that your sufficiency is in God alone. Contentment in life begins with accepting the will of God for your life irrespective of your status and position. It also entails pursuing only what God wants you to pursue as well as associating with only those He wants you to associate with. The kind of wealth that will disconnect you from God will not come your way in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Impressive Wednesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 9th Of June 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY God has shown Himself time without number that He is consistent in fulfilling His words. All those who follow Him, will not but always enjoy the fruit of His faithfulness that never ends!!! ************************ 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). _______________________________ Everything around us testifies the faithfulness of God and the fact that His covenant is consistent over all Creation of the earth. In Genesis 8:22, The Lord said "As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease". This has been the experience right from time. It is a proof of His faithfulness to His words. In the midst of men's unfaithfulness, disobedience and lack of commitment towards Him; He remains committed to caring for the entire generation of men. He has never failed in His word neither will He; His mercy is upon them who fear him from generation to generation. He is the covenant keeping God. His faithfulness is not limited to establishing the wonderful things of life. He is also faithful to His words that has to do with mercy, Judgement and punishment over sin. The entire world may change, He is ever consistent in diversity and His principle remains the same in different aspect of application. Civilization in its greatest form cannot change His view over sin, unrighteousness and unfaithfulness. Therefore, cooperate with Him so as to enjoy the full benefits of His faithfulness in your life. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Fruitful Tuesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 8th Of June 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Every man will always have reasons to look up to God for help at every point in time. However, every blessing of God in your life is not meant to end with you!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Remember that you were slaves in Egypt and the LORD your God redeemed you from there. That is why I command you to do this. When you are harvesting in your field and you overlook a sheaf, do not go back to get it. Leave it for the alien, the fatherless and the widow, so that the LORD your God may bless you in all the work of your hands." (Deuteronomy 24:18-19 NIV). _______________________________ Precisely, everything given to you by God is not meant for your personal consumption. The Lord has shown to us in His principle that He wants all men to be a medium of blessing to other lives. It is not by mistake or an act of wickedness that He blesses some people more than others. He only entrusts His resource into the hands of men based on His mercy over them or their capacity to handle it. Always remember the fact that you are a product of Grace and privilege. Don't forget where you are coming from. If life has really taught you its lesson; you will understand better what it means to be in acute need of basic things of life. God did not create any man who has everything and the man who lacks everything. You will always have something that others do not have. God will never expect you to give what you don't have. However, the ultimate interest of God over His own people is that they should be an answer to prayers offered secretly to Him by others through meeting their needs. This is the only way you can practically prove to men the existence of the eternal God. It is only a man who lacks the spirit of God that will fail to help others when they have the capacity to do so. Some will miss heaven on this very account because they ate or even used what belongs to others with theirs - this is what is called corruption. May you never be a curse but a blessing to your generation in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Inspirational Week Ahead!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 6th Of June 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY What God can't do no man can do. Whatever a man tries to do for himself by force will eventually bring trouble on him!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "The blessing of the Lord--it makes [truly] rich, and He adds no sorrow with it [neither does toiling increase it]." (Proverbs 10:22 AMP). _____________________________ There is a limit to what a man can do for himself. Also, there are specific roles expected of a man to play in becoming what God wants Him to be. However, no man can play the role of God who is the designer of man's destiny and God will not play the role of men. God has plan and purpose for everything in life. As many as we are on earth He still attends to our needs individually because He knows us by name. No one can outrun God no matter how such tries to. Those men who ever tried to outrun Him rather brought trouble on themselves. Whenever you hear the name 'Gehazi', 'Achan' what comes to your mind? These were the men who did not only bring trouble on themselves but also their families just because they want to outrun God. Whatever you try to become by force and becomes possible for you is actually not in His divine plan for your life but it is rather a manipulation of God's divine plan for your life. Wait upon God over every situation of your life. It is in waiting for Him that your strength will be renewed. It is the magnitude of the strength you have in God that will determine how far you will go in life. Don't turn to become an enemy of God on the account of ephemeral things and the enjoyment of this life. His plan is great and your glorification is looming. May you never miss the blessing of God for your life in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Blessed Weekend!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 5th Of June 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Arrogance is the beginning of foolishness. It is only a foolish man that will not submit to the wisdom of God!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "When swelling and pride come, then emptiness and shame come also, but with the humble (those who are lowly, who have been pruned or chiseled by trial, and renounce self) are skillful and godly Wisdom and soundness." (Proverbs 11:2 AMP). _____________________________ Each time you see a man who neglects the principle of God meant to guide him, you have seen a foolish man. God gave us His precept to help us to be what He wants us to be. He is so gracious enough to freely make it available for us. However, men tend to be wise and think they can outsmart the words of God in various issues of life. We can never be wise like the creator of heaven and earth who designed the destiny of all men. Therefore, any man who lifts up his heart against the words of God such is packaging himself for destruction. The wisdom of God through His words is made available to help all men to make heaven and fulfill their God's given mandate on earth. Will a man not be foolish if he neglects the wisdom of God that will give him peace, joy, fulfillment and also qualifies him for heaven? Every conspiracy against the words of the Lord and His will is regarded as arrogance. It is a humble heart which is in submission to His words that can make your life to be tailored according to His divine plan. May you never fail in obedience to every divine instruction for your life in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Superb Friday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 4th Of June 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Times are not equal; the life of a man is segmented into different chapters. At this point in time, the life of a man whose life is patterned according to His purpose will not but fulfill the details of the current chapter of his life!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Enjoy prosperity while you can, but when hard times strike, realize that both come from God. That way you will realize that nothing is certain in this life." (Ecclesiastes 7:14 NLT). _____________________________ The life of a man is just like a book having several chapters. Each of the chapter is not in isolation with each other. The sum total of all chapters speak much about the essence and purpose of the book. No matter who you are, there are some life's experience you can't escape or exempt yourself from just because of the essence of your creation and what God according to His purpose wants to use your life to write either for this present generation or the one to come. We see in the life of Joseph the son of Jacob the time of garment of many colour, moment of persecution in the dry well, moment as a slave and as a prison inmate and finally as a prime minister of Egypt. The trend his life followed was designed by God just to fulfill a course on earth using his life. Therefore, irrespective of the chapter you are as you proceed on the pathway of the glorious destiny before you; keep your faith alive in God who rules in all affairs of men. Be careful not to fail in His requirement for your life as you trust the Holy spirit to help and comfort you at all times. Also, don't sleep over any moment of comfort by detaching yourself from the Lord. This is because life is so uncertain as you can see on daily basis. The Lord will usher you into fresh season of great manifestation of His Glory in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Providential Thursday!!! |

Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 3rd Of June 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Despite the fact that all men have the right to exercise their self will in the aspect of making choices; there is a credit you have before man and God for every way you lived!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "What does the Scripture say? Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness". (Romans 4:3 NIV). _____________________________ Your lifestyle speaks volume of who you are. There is a track record of the way you live which determines your recommendation before God. What was said about Abraham was the fact that he believed God and the verdict of God over his life is that he was righteous. The Lord is not ignorant of who we are, even in the midst of several activities that present us healthy before men. "Then the LORD said to Satan, Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil"." (Job 1: . Again, we can see the credit God gave Job due to his lifestyle.What is the recommendation of God about your life? Your appearance, zeal, works and all other activities of life can give a wrong information about your real person but not God. Is it not we men that know what is right and what the will of God is but fail to respond accordingly? Do not deceive yourself! What credit does your life have in the present of God? Come out and appear the way you are so as to receive the required help for your life. The Lord will give us the grace to live to please Him all the days of our life in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Inspired Wednesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 2nd Of June 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY The path of righteousness is the path God designed for man to walk through so that his life becomes right and free from iniquity!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "He leads me in the paths of righteousness [uprightness and right standing with Him--not for my earning it, but] for His name's sake." (Psalms 23:3b AMP). _____________________________ When it is imperative for God to lead a man at the point of submitting to Him; He leads him in the path of righteousness. He does this just for His name sake for some reasons: 1. "The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe." (Proverbs 18:10). There are some sickness, terrible issues and troubles of life that will naturally not come near you when you walk through the path of righteousness. It is sin that exposes a man's life to the devil to perform his enterprise. 2. The standard of God has a seal and therefore cannot be compromised. "Nevertheless the solid foundation of God stands, having this seal: The Lord knows those who are His, and, Let everyone who names the name of Christ depart from iniquity." (2 Timothy 2:19). If a man will have anything to do with His name, he must depart from iniquity by walking through the path of righteousness. 3. Irrespective of whatever a man does with the name of the Lord; if he does not walk in the path of righteousness the Lord does not know him. "Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?' Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!" (Matthew 7:22-23). You actually belong to God if and only if you tread the path of righteousness. The Lord will give us the grace to follow Him as He leads us in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Impressive Tuesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? Happy New Month _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 1st Of June 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY The presence of God among others is the first and foremost need of your life in order to come into His provisions reserved for your life and destiny. There are more than ten thousands and one ways that leads to success in life, but the secret to them belongs to the Creator who is the true Shepherd of our soul!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures: He leads me beside the still waters." (Psalms 23:1-2 NKJV). _____________________________ Whosoever seeks the Lord and follow His leading will not but always have his needs met. "The young lions lack and suffer hunger; But those who seek the LORD shall not lack any good thing." (Psalms 34:10 NKJV). If truly God is your father He will never fail to meet your needs. Many a man may have a father who has strength like a lion; that does not exempt them from various needs of life. It does not change their limitation as men who are ignorant of their future. The one who created you is not ignorant of who you are and what you will be. He is the omniscience, omnipotent and omnipresence God who designed your destiny. He is the only One who knows the green pasture of your life and the still water your soul needs in the time of weariness. You will not but always be in one need or the other as you proceed on the pathway of destiny. Your greatest consolation is the presence of the Lord the creator of all things. Give yourself to God and follow Him as He leads you into your glorious destiny. This is the only sure antidote to losing out in destiny. As you submit yourself to the Lord, He will pattern your ways to the green pasture of your life in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Outstanding Month Ahead!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 31st Of May 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY There is no path God cannot take His people through in a bid to make them to fulfill their purpose. Irrespective of wherever your life operates the greatest asset of your life is the presence of God!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me." (Psalms 23:4 KJV). _____________________________ One of those things we learn and see in the attribute of God is that He takes men through various path of life which seems horrible and dangerous as He leads them into their glorious destiny. Most of the time, the path looks like the valley of shadow of death. In this valley, situation of life will be discouraging, the future will look as if not bright. It is a period where the glory of a man's life will be in obscurity. He will be neglected if not forgotten. However, when God is with him there is hope for him and his future is bright. Joseph in the bible also passed through this valley; he was sold into slavery in the midst of numerous promises of God over his life. Even as a slave he was prosperous because God was with him. If truly the Lord is the one leading you; irrespective of the path which He takes you through; He will never leave nor forsake you. Cherish the presence of God in your life. Touch not unclean thing and surrender your entire life to the shepherd of your soul by responding to His will in total obedience to His word. In this way, you will have nothing to fear in any situation of life. The presence of God will not depart from your life in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Glorious Worship Experience!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 30th Of May 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY One of those things that must not but go with you in life is the mercy of God. Similarly, every man needs the goodness of the Lord to boost his confidence in Him!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever." (Psalms 23:6 KJV). _____________________________ When the life of a man lacks the goodness of the Lord; His testimony will not be strong because it will lack physical evidence of God's mighty wonders. Therefore, when God leads a man as a shepherd does; He allows His goodness to accompany his life. This is when he can boldly say to people "Taste and see that the LORD is good" (Psalms 34:8a). Otherwise, he can likely doubt the existence and the supremacy of God because there is nothing serving as an evidence of God's presence in his life. Similarly, every good thing of life is the desire of all men. It only takes those who have received the mercy of God to enjoy the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. The thin line between those who are enjoying what this life offers and those who are not is the mercy of God. When God leads you and you follow according; His mercy will make you triumph over all judgement no matter how great your offences may be. It is an established fact that anyone who key into this mercy of God by accepting the Lord as the Shepherd of his life will not only enjoy the goodness of the Lord but will also dwell with Him eternally. As you go on in life; may you never lack the goodness and the mercy of God in your life in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Overwhelming Weekend!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 29th Of May 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Change is the only constant factor of life that makes life beautiful. However, Life situation will remain the same when the same method is applied to the same problem in the same circumstances!!! *********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:" (Ecclesiastes 3:1 KJV). _____________________________ The situation of things in life, including nature have proven over the time that change is a constant factor of life. A man who does not bear this in mind as he moves on in life on the pathway of his destiny lacks understanding. Irrespective of your situation, be it good or bad, the fact still remains that you will not always be where you are presently either by promotion or death. There are two major type of change; Positive and Negative change. Going by human desire; every man needs positive change in various aspect of life. This desire for positive change is what makes men to be innovative; thereby bringing improvement to every affairs of life. On the other hand, negative change in situation of life is what teaches men the principle of maintenance. It is the change that tells men not to sleep over their previous success if they don't want to live in the past. Coming down to our lives as an individual and a nation; if we really need positive change we have to be innovative through the change of life and attitude in the direction of God's will for our lives. The Lord will not but always create an opportunity for positive transformation; Let us all submit to God's will. Otherwise, we will be overrun by negative change. May the Lord will bring our lives and nation into a positive transformation in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Outstanding Friday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 28th Of May 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY The best a man can be is to be what God wants him to be. Whatever you become outside the plan of God for your life is useless to the fulfilment of your purpose!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "For I know the plans I have for you", declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." (Jeremiah 29:11 NIV). _____________________________ There is always a way in the heart of the Lord to bring your desire to pass. Apart from that, He makes everything beautiful in its own time (Eccl 3:11). Each time you sit and think about many good things for your life and future, know that, it is the intention of the Lord to do just that for you. However, since God knows more than we do, He will never do it according to the manner of our thinking. This is because most of our thoughts have been polluted by the sinful nature. God can choose to take you through any path of life in a bid to lead you into fulfilling your purpose in life. Irrespective of what your experience is, as God leads you through the path way of destiny, His thought for you is not of evil but a way to give you an expected end. Earnestly desire and seek the will of God for your life in every aspect of your endeavour because that is the best for you. May you never miss the plan of God for your life in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Fulfilled Thursday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 27th Of May 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY A man does not become righteous by wishful thinking but by responding without hesitation to do what is right according to God's will. The man who will be righteous is the one who will always allow God to help him!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Let me die the death of the righteous [those who are upright and in right standing with God], and let my last end be like theirs!" (Numbers 23:10b AMP). _____________________________ Going by human desire, every man wants to make heaven and have the reward of the righteous. However, what righteousness entails is not appealing to most men. Your life can only be right in every aspect of life when you live righteously. When a man does not fail in the requirement of righteousness before God he cannot fail in others. It is certain that we cannot but live a righteous life if we really desire to be with the Lord and reign with him eternally. It is also not enough to remain at the level of having intentions to live to do the right in line with God's will for us; but to prayerfully seek the Lord to help us to take appropriate action that ensures righteousness as at when due. The more you give room to the Holy Spirit to manifest in you the more righteous you will be. It is the degree and the manner of submission to God's spirit that defines a righteous man. The Lord will quicken our heart to always respond to Him for full manifestation of His nature in us in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Fortified Wednesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 26th Of May 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Many a man finds solution to their needs through any available means; the only available currency for a righteous man is faith!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Now the just shall live by faith; But if anyone draws back, My soul has no pleasure in him." (Hebrews 10:38 NKJV). _____________________________ The only available means to receive anything from God is by faith. All those who followed God and received the promise did that through faith. Most times, we cannot but find ourselves in situations which seems to threaten our faith. Those challenges are meant to validate the faith we have in God. God wants all His children to have faith and to believe Him even when the path through which He leads us over any situation, appears not to be reasonable and practicable. We can only fulfill our purpose and destiny by believing what God has said concerning us. Each time a man fails to believe God over a situation of his life he tends to deprive God the benefit and the glory that should emanate from his life to Him. Over such a man who turned back, the Lord is displeased. If you are still very much interested in the plan of God for your life you must hold on to His words and keep your faith alive in Him. The Lord will strengthen your faith with mighty miracles coming directly into your life in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Superb Tuesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 25th Of May 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY A time is coming when a man will no longer be seen no matter the effort we make trying to; but the sweet memories of their deeds will always be remembered and engraved in the heart of men as long as they live!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "The memory of the righteous is blessed, But the name of the wicked will rot." (Proverbs 10:7 NKJV). _____________________________ Whatever you are doing now will become history and go into the memory lane. A time is coming when no one will remember the type of cloths you wore, the type of food you ate, the type of your car, houses and job. You will only be remembered by the kind gesture shown to men and how God used you to answer their secret prayers over their needs. Don't be a wasted investment in God's hand but rather touch the heart of men with whatever you become in life and everything you have. Fulfilling your mandate to glorify the name of the Lord is the most important benefit that can emanate from your life to Him. This can only be possible through reaching out to men in whatever ways you can and within the limit of your capacity. The Lord will make your life an eternal excellence and the joy of many generation in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Awesome Week!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 24th Of May 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY A true saviour will always lay down his life for people. This single act is the most important way to be like Jesus!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers. If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him?" (1 John 3:16-17 NIV). _____________________________ The life of a saviour is characterized by sacrificial giving. Every true child of God is expected to be a saviour. Men of the earth who neither know God nor His deeds can only know Him when we His children resemble Him in His attributes. What we see in Him is that, He was always doing good every where He went. He did not live for Himself. There is no record that He had any special possession or significant habitation while on earth. He lived His entire life for service towards mankind. People of this age are very wise and practical. Reading the bible to tell men what God has done or what He can do will never have any significant impact in the lives of men. You are not a saviour as God expects you to be until you respond to God at every point in time to be His extended hand reaching out to men. It is not enough to carry the bible, speak the word of God, attend service and move with men of God but to respond to people's needs within the limit of your capacity. God will not but bless, promote and endow on you special grace to fulfill your mandate in every facet of life. You need to always remember that you are meant to be a saviour of your own world. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Lovely Worship Experience!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 23rd Of May 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY A man who is really mindful of God's glorious plan for his life will not hesitate to bear the cross in a bid to win the crown!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God." (Hebrews 12:2 NKJV). _____________________________ Having established the fact that a race is set before us and that there are several witnesses who were successful in their walk with God in the midst of life's trouble; we must learn from their lifestyle so as not to miss out in God's plan for our lives. What they pass through is very much identical to what we are passing through today. They were tempted in many occasion. Many of them found themselves in situation which seemed hopeless. Their choice to follow God subjected them to public ridicule and derision among the men of their own time. Life left many of them without any choice but to die for the cause of the gospel. They lived in such a way that, if God is the only thing they would have in this life; they have everything and other things are irrelevant. The Lord Jesus Christ is the summary of their lives. The account written about Him is that; He endured the cross and despised the shame. Is there anything you are enduring for the cause of the Lord? If you so much desire that right hand of God where the Joy set before you lies; you cannot but bear the cross in a bid to win the crown. Those treading a way alien to that of the Lord are actually walking on a path alien to the path that leads to God's eternal habitation. The Lord will give us the grace to endure and not miss out in destiny in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Glorious Weekend!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 22nd Of May 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Your success in the race of life depends on its awareness in your heart. A man who does not understand or live in line with the perspective of the race set before him will not but lose out in destiny!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us," (Hebrews 12:1 NKJV). _____________________________ Irrespective of your experience in life it is not new. Several men who have gone before you came to that very point you find yourself. These are the heroes of faith many of whom were mentioned in (Heb 11:1-40). These ones serve as witnesses which surround our lives. They received the word of God and acted in total obedience even in a situation which seems not visible or practicable. What they believed became their experience. Just like them you are also in the race of life and this you must know vividly. Significantly, if you will not miss out in destiny, you must lay aside every weight of sin. There is no man carrying a weight in a race that ever wins. Moses did not come into the reality of his mandate in life until he lay aside the weight of being the prince of Egypt. Therefore, there is something you must lay aside in a bid to fulfill your destiny in God. Since there is a race before us; we must also run with great endurance if we so desire to receive the promise. All those who fulfilled their purpose did not make it without endurance. Grace to lay aside every weight/sin to fulfill your mandate to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Splendid Friday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 21st Of May 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Your companion is God's greatest gift to you in this life. A man is neither successful nor complete until the right companion comes into his life!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Enjoy life with your wife, whom you love, all the days of this meaningless life that God has given you under the sun- all your meaningless days. For this is your lot in life and in your toilsome labor under the sun." (Ecclesiastes 9:9 NIV). _____________________________ There is a companion designed to go with you in life. The one with whom various path you tread in life will become easier and with whom every hardship you will come across in life will blow away. It is the gift of God meant to make your existence meaningful. The ultimate strength of your life depends on your togetherness. With your companionship you have everything else there is nothing. When God is set to have mercy upon a man; He gives him a wife. Irrespective of your achievement in life until you have an established home according to God's will; you are still far from being fulfilled. Companionship with your life's covenant partner is something you must desire and always long for as a single young man and woman. Neglecting this special gift of God is a way to miss out in destiny. As a married man don't look down on your life's portion on earth and as a wife don't disrespect or neglect your rightful owner. If your prayers will not be hindered; honour the Lord by submitting yourself to this Holy institution by appreciating, caring, nurturing and more importantly loving your spouse. The Lord will give you grace to have a successful and a blissful marital experience in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Blissful Thursday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 20th Of May 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY It is the amount of support around the life of a man that truly defines his greatness. No man can ever be great in isolation to his Creator!!! *********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "It is God who arms me with strength and makes my way perfect . . . You give me your shield of victory, and your right hand sustains me; you stoop down to make me great." (Psalms 18:32, 35 NIV). _____________________________ When God is set to make a man great, He brings men who can be regarded as destiny helpers to render necessary support to him. No matter the level of a man's attainment, he still needs support or a teacher who shows him a way forward towards greatness on the pathway of destiny. It not enough that a man is talented; it is the support of God that makes a man great. Those who are famous and widely celebrated by people are those who received mercy of God. It is this mercy that influences people to appreciate the gift of God in their lives. The greatest support of your life comes from God who is able to touch the heart of men to render the very help you need to rise in life. There is nothing special in the lives of those who have attained wonderful success in life; it is a function of God's help and mercy on them. It is not the case that your life is that bad or that you are just unfortunate; what you need is special help from above. Look up to Him who knows all your plight and all you have passed through; He will surely come to your aid! The Lord will bring destiny helpers your way at this point in time in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Terrific Wednesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 19th Of May 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Life does not take you up like a ladder but rather grows up like a tree. The greatest of all men in life did not take the first step of his life without the help of other men before him!!! *********************** BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Live in harmony with each other. Don't be too proud to enjoy the company of ordinary people. And don't think you know it all! Never pay back evil with more evil. Do things in such a way that everyone can see you are honorable." (Romans 12:16-17 NLT). _____________________________ You did not become what you are by your own doings. What becomes your food today is what men gave to you as food at the inception of your life. You are required to place much value on your relationship. Don't treat those men who have your back when you were incapacitated as a ladder which you only need to rise in life. Life and times have changed; the present generation is clever and practical. Most people see every relationship as ladder on which they step to rise further in life but when they no longer need it, they throw it in Atlantic ocean. Several men who are advanced in age were abandoned by their children to allow them to suffer when taking the few last step of their lives. If these men helped their children to take the first step of their lives don't they deserve support in the few last steps of their lives? It is only a matter of time, the new school will later become old school. Don't look down on any relationship irrespective of how they appear to be if it is Godly! Life grows like a tree which needs care, love, patience, endurance and relationship to survive and to find fulfilment. Grace to place great value on relationships to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Remarkable Tuesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 17th Of May 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY It is the fear of the Lord that keeps a man from sinning. To run away from sin just because of its consequence is not the best reason but for the purpose of reverencing God!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; all who follow his precepts have good understanding. To him belongs eternal praise." (Psalms 111:10 NIV). _____________________________ The whole duty of a man is that he should fear God (Eccl 12:13). You can never please God if you don't fear Him. Those who really fear God do not wait for people's presence to do what is right. The ultimate wisdom a man can display is to respond adequately to God's word in total obedience to His will. Not because of the punishment that comes from disobedience but as a way to give God the honour He deserves as our God. The fear of the Lord shields your life in many ways against every evil by agent of darkness. When sin does not find place in your life you have succeeded in protecting your life against several problems of life. You have blocked every channel through which the devil can gain access to perform His enterprise in your life. In all your pursuit in life don't forget one of your most important primary assignment which is to fear God. Always remember that the fear of God in your heart is the first application of wisdom in all you do. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Outstanding Worship Experience |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 15th Of May 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Every man will not but have an opportunity to answer various call in life - call to salvation, discipleship, call to pass on to eternity and call to Judgement. However, irrespective of your response; you will not but answer the call to eternity which precedes the call to judgement!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive what is due him for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad." (2 Corinthians 5:10 NIV). _____________________________ The call to salvation is the call out of the sinful world and its filthiness into the marvellous light in the presence of God. However, only few respond to this call because of the love for various unrighteous act and worldliness. The next call is the call to discipleship which is the call to follow the footstep of the Lord Jesus. We can only resemble Him in His attributes through discipleship. Many of those who respond to the call to salvation finds it difficult to advance from there because of the narrow nature of the way. Most so called men of God are not helping the matter because they tend to widen the gate for men to accommodate their sinful desire. The nature of your response to call to salvation and discipleship will determine how glorious your life will be when the time comes to respond to call to eternity and judgment. Several men who heard, spoke, make jest, preached about eternity have responded to call to eternity. Irrespective of your believe and attitude to God's word you will answer this call. It is not by choice but a must. Where will you spend your eternity? May you not be found wanting in the Lord's Kingdom in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Fabulous Friday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 14th Of May 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY A man will not fulfill his purpose on earth until he understands that he is not created for himself but for service to mankind!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Therefore, since Christ suffered in his body, arm yourselves also with the same attitude, because he who has suffered in his body is done with sin. As a result, he does not live the rest of his earthly life for evil human desires, but rather for the will of God." (1 Peter 4:1-2 NIV). _____________________________ A man who is too mindful of himself will never be able to see nor understand the purpose of God for his life. If a man were to consider those things that surrounds his life he will not be able to give himself to the fulfillment of his purpose. Those things that surrounds man includes what he will eat, his career, his finances, his academics, his marital life, various life's achievement and many more. The Lord Jesus admonished us not to worry about all these things that your life(the purpose of your creation) worth more than all (Matt 6:25-33). Fulfilling purpose was what influenced people like Paul to count all things but loss (Phip 3: . God took Joseph through different phase of life in a bid to save his generation. He knew this and gave himself to it. That was why the history of the people of his time is not complete without mentioning him. What is the essence of your existence if all you are does not impact your world. The expectation of God over your life is that you should use whatever you are and every opportunity you have to bless and have great impact in the lives of men. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Impressive Thursday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 13th Of May 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Every good step of life always come with its own fear and uncertainty. It takes love and courage through the grace of God to scale through!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Truly the light is sweet, And it is pleasant for the eyes to behold the sun; But if a man lives many years And rejoices in them all, Yet let him remember the days of darkness, For they will be many. All that is coming is vanity." (Ecclesiastes 11:7-8 NKJV). _____________________________ All men love success, progress, promotion and many other good things of life. However, every new step of life comes with new challenges. There is always a new devil assigned to the life of a man with respect with any increase he experiences on the pathway of destiny. Life is full of uncertainties and battles. We must always prepare our minds to face life challenges because the days of darkness will be many. A student who just gained admission does not know what awaits him/her. Some couples who had spent more than ten years trusting God for the issue of the womb were rejoicing on their wedding day without knowing the challenges that lies ahead. As much as you will always desire to see light in every issue of life; don't forget that the days of darkness will not but come. Be strong in the Lord and depend absolutely on Him. Irrespective of the situation of your life and the success you are enjoying; always give yourself more to the Lord who can lead you through all circumstance that may come your way. The Love you have towards God is very vital to your confidence in the day of adversity. The Lord will always come to your aid in the day of adversity in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Awesome Wednesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 12th Of May 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY Fresh fire on the altar can only be kept alive in the absence of previous ashes. A man who takes pleasure in celebrating who he used to be in the past or where he is presently may never come into the fullness of God's intending plan for him!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus." (Philippians 3:13-14 NIV). _____________________________ Each level of your attainment in life is an open door to a greater new phase of life. The best way to forge ahead is to keep looking forward. You are not expected to live in the past if you must progress in life. The ability to forget what you have achieved so far in life is very important to what you will be and what God wants to make of your life. Look ahead there is something for you; the best of your life is yet to come. Think about the affairs of your life? Is the Lord not telling you that you have dwelt long enough (Deut 1:6) ? The most important characteristic you look for in a thing to validate how healthy it is in any domain is growth. Thank God for your life and what you used to be; are you really growing? Are you progressive in your walk with God? There is a joy set ahead of you which you must strive to get. Again and again don't live your life on earth as if you have come to stay. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Wonderful Tuesday!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 11th Of May 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY When a man is too comfortable where he is; he is liable to lost desire for higher placement!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "From the end of the earth will I cry to You, when my heart is overwhelmed and fainting; lead me to the rock that is higher than I [yes, a rock that is too high for me]." (Psalms 61:2 AMP). _____________________________ No matter how great and promising the level you are operating in life is, there is a height greater than where you are. The mystery of life is that things will not always be the way it is; this makes change a constant factor of life. If you think you are comfortable, you need to go and ask those who have become history in their life time. When they talk, you will hear them say "When I used to be this and that". Many a man, stop serving God actively because He made them to have a little taste of power or influential position. Little did they know that someone used to be in the exact position they were occupying. Wherever you find yourself today; have it at the back of your heart that it is not a permanent abode. In as much as you are still living, you are still on the pathway of destiny. Most times God uses situation of life to push men out of their comfort zone just to set them on the path to greatness. He did it for Joseph as well as the Apostles through persecution. Just like the Psalmist; God wants everyone of us to always look up and cry to Him the more as He increases us in every aspect of life. A composer sang: "My heart has no desire to stay Where doubts arise and fears dismay; Though some may dwell where these abound, My prayer, my aim, is higher ground." An eternal abode awaits every living soul. Don't live your life on earth as if you have come to stay. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have an Awe-Inspiring Week Ahead!!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 10th Of May 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY God will not lower His standard on the account of the fact that He needs men to represent Him. You are only relevant in His purpose if and only if you are a vessel of honour!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay, some for honor and some for dishonor. Therefore if anyone cleanses himself from the latter, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified and useful for the Master, prepared for every good work." (2 Timothy 2:20-21 NKJV). _____________________________ One of the most important reason why God created you is that you should represent Him accurately in His fullness wherever you find yourself; so as to be an extended hand of His Glory reaching out to the oppressed and also establishing His purpose on earth. Despite the keen interest of God over our lives to use us for His glory; He will not just accept anybody who does not conform to His standard. It does not matter what you do for God and how long you have been in His business; if your ways are not right before Him, all your effort is nothing but a waste of time. "Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." (Matthew 7:22-23). The most important assignment we must give ourselves to doing always is to purge ourselves from iniquity. This is the only way the true nature of God can find expression in our lives thereby resembling Him in His attributes. The Grace to purge your life from all iniquity to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Refreshed Worship Experience !!! |
Good Morning! How was your Night? _____________________________ Spiritual Digest for the Day 7th Of May 2015 QUOTE FOR THE DAY God designs various life issues to make men strong. He did not create any strong man but rather gave man the potential to be strong!!! ************************ BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "He makes my feet like hinds' feet [able to stand firmly or make progress on the dangerous heights of testing and trouble]; He sets me securely upon my high places. He teaches my hands to war, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze." (Psalms 18:33-34 AMP). _____________________________ There are some things you will naturally not know how to do if various issues of life does not push you to do it. The nature of a man is a type that loves pleasure and detest any form of hardship. It is what you pass through that is called experience. The more your experience the more the strength and wisdom you will have to face future challenges. Don't run away or boycott any dealings of the Lord over your life because it is an avenue to make you strong. Most of the time, when God sees that His children are becoming lukewarm and lethargic in their faith and spiritual life as a result of the comfort they are enjoying at every side; He sponsors some challenges for them to keep them at alert. It is not as if you can't pray, the issue is that what will make you pray has not come. Also, it is not the case that you cannot create time to seek God; it is a normal thing for men to remember God when various situations of life that is beyond them comes. The devil will not but always want to use the storm of life to sweep you away; it only takes a man who had been trained to war by various issues of life to stand in the days of adversity. Submit yourself to every learning in the school of life that God is taking you through. Grace to you in Jesus name. Amen!!! Have a Stunning Thursday!!! |
