THEME:
I Shall Be Great. III.

MEMORY VERSE:
“But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.”
James 4:6.

TODAY’S TEXT:
Proverbs 28:25
“He that is of a proud heart stirreth up strife: but he that putteth his trust in the LORD shall be made fat.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
In the last part of this series, we also had one more secret of greatness: Knowledge. Knowledge about divine principle on greatness and having adequate knowledge of our specific area of expertise is important. This in addition to diligence, obedience and fear of the Lord, are recipes or the keys that unlock greatness.
Meanwhile, our memory verse talk about Humility as a secret to amount grace and when grace is available, greatness is around the corner.
More so, our today’s text affirms that a proud person brings up strife and where there is strife, there will be disunity and progress or success cannot stay.
Furthermore, the scripture declared in Job 5:25 saying: *”Thou shalt know also that thy seed shall be great, and thine offspring as the grass of the earth.”* The truth is that, when you are truly great, it will not end with you, it will be extended to your righteous generations yet unborn.
Finally, Deuteronomy 11:23-24 says: _”Then will the LORD drive out all these nations from before you, and ye shall possess greater nations and mightier than yourselves. Every place whereon the soles of your feet shall tread shall be yours…”_ This shall be your portion in Jesus name. Amen.

God bless you.
Till He returns or call you home, do remain in the power of His love.
*Jesus is coming very soon.*
Be prepared.

DAILY CONFESSION:
I shall be great indeed.

PRAYER POINT:
Father, in your mercy and grace, as I submit my self at your feet. Please Lord, fulfill your promises for my life in Jesus name. Amen.

Yours in Christ,

THEME:
I Shall Be Great. II.

MEMORY VERSE:
“With whom my hand shall be established: mine arm also shall strengthen him.”
Psalms 89:21.

TODAY’S TEXT:
“This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
Yesterday, we defined greatness as a measure of personal achievement or success. And that having God as your greatest Ally cum diligence in personal skill or efforts, do guarantee success.
Meanwhile, our today’s text revealed another secret of greatness saying: _”…thou shalt meditate therein day and night…for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.”_ This implies that, when we diligently study the scripture, our inner minds will be open to God’s love towards us. And in return we will gladly love the Lord, reverence the Lord and obey all his instructions for our lives and in return bless us with good success.
More so, beloved in Christ Jesus, as we meditate and study the word of God, let’s also cultivate the habit of further study and seek adequate knowledge in the areas of our skill, gift, career or business, for this will broaden our horizon and open door for innovation and expansion.
Finally, Knowledge is continuous, never stop learning or studying and the good Lord, will surprise you with good success. May the Lord grant you grace, as you seek true knowledge in Jesus name. Amen.

God bless you.
Till He returns or call you home, do remain in the power of His love.
*Jesus is coming very soon.*
Be prepared.

DAILY CONFESSION:
I Shall Be Great. For Learning is the cure for ignorance.

PRAYER POINT:
Father, give me grace to study your word diligently. And to seek for more knowledge in my career path, business and family development in Jesus name. Amen

Yours in Christ,
B. J. Folorunsho.

THEME:
I Shall Be Great. I.

MEMORY VERSE:
“And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing.”
Genesis 12:2.

TODAY’S TEXT:
Genesis 12:1, 3.
“Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
What is greatness? Greatness simply means measure of personal achievement or success. We can also refer to it, with the mind of a layman, ‘as cumulation or end result of man’s time to time efforts or labour in this world.
However, part of the layman definition says; _”…end result of man’s time to time efforts or labour…”_ But is it totally correct? For the scripture says; *”…this is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.”* (Zechariah 4:6) This implies that for one to be truly great, he or she needs divine support, without which all efforts, labour or struggle can be destroyed or amount to zero.
More so, Abraham’s obedience to instructions with divine intervention through alignment and his diligence, are there for us to consider also.
Finally dear friend, in order to be truly great, you have to daily connect yourself with God, obey his directives, and put up your best, so that your efforts or labour will not be wasted. May God, your maker, make you great indeed in Jesus name. Amen.

God bless you.
Till He returns or call you home, do remain in the power of His love.
*Jesus is coming very soon.*
Be prepared.

DAILY CONFESSION:
I shall be great. And be a blessing to my generation and generations yet unborn.

PRAYER POINT:
Father Lord, in your Mercy and Grace, let me be great indeed. Please, crown all my efforts and services with good result in Jesus name. Amen.

Yours in Christ,
B. J. Folorunsho.

THEME:
The Eleventh Hour Miracle. IV.

MEMORY VERSE:
“…Call the labourers, and give them their hire, beginning from the last unto the first.”
Matthew 20:8.

TODAY’S TEXT:
Matthew 20:9-10.
“And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny. But when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more; and they likewise received every man a penny.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
Yesterday, we observed that Jesus; the good Shepherd is ever faithful and will not owe anyone his or her reward. He is faithful to His promises towards us all. Eleventh hour miracle is that kind of turn around, you don’t consider possible again, but you got on the platter of gold.
However, beloved in Christ Jesus, the last statement of our memory verse reveals the order of payment given by the good rich man saying: *”…beginning from the last unto the first.”* This is the pointed to the fact that, there is no late comer for the eleventh hour blessings, once you are available, you are entitled, and the good news is that you are alive today, surely you will receive your own portion.
Furthermore, let’s imagine that the above phrase is written like this: “beginning from the *first* unto the *last.”* I believe when one penny was given to the men of first hour, men of eleventh hour would have lost hope of getting a penny, rather hoping for at most ten percent of a penny, which would be insignificant and unable to sustain their individual life, even for a day.
Finally, wherever you are hoping for good things, just rest your mind on God and your hope of great and good things will not be dashed in Jesus name. Amen.

God bless you.
Till He returns or call you home, do remain in the power of His love.
*Jesus is coming very soon.*
Be prepared.

DAILY CONFESSION:
My hope will not be dashed. For I know that my Redeemer lives.

PRAYER POINT:
Father, my hope is on you alone. Help me lord, not to seek alternative, but to wait on you till my appointed time comes in Jesus name. Amen.

Yours in Christ,
B. J. Folorunsho.

THEME:
The Eleventh Hour Miracle. III.

MEMORY VERSE:
“And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny.”
Matthew 20:9.

TODAY’S TEXT:
Matthew 20:7-8.
“They say unto him, Because no man hath hired us. He saith unto them, Go ye also into the vineyard; and whatsoever is right, that shall ye receive. So when even was come, the lord of the vineyard saith unto his steward, Call the labourers, and give them their hire, beginning from the last unto the first.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
Yesterday, we continue with the assurance of the good Shepherd’s compassion, activeness and in His capacity to bless all people, irrespective of their efforts to the common goal. Jesus is still much at work fixing lives and destinies for good. He awaits our availability and readiness to get His blessings.
Finally, the opening of our today’s text stressed the importance of reward for the diligent workers saying: _”So when even was come, the lord of the vineyard saith unto his steward, Call the labourers, and give them their hire.”_ Beloved, do know that your service of love in God’s house and here on Earth is noted with great interest and your reward this season will surface in Jesus name. Amen.

God bless you.
Till He returns or call you home, do remain in the power of His love.
*Jesus is coming very soon.*
Be prepared.

DAILY CONFESSION:
I will not miss my reward and my labour of love, will not go unnoticed.

PRAYER POINT:
Father, when the time of reward comes for your faithful workers, please Lord, help me not to miss my rewards but to receive it to the fullest in Jesus name. Amen.

Yours in Christ,
B. J. Folorunsho.
