THEME: God Is A Consuming Fire. I.

MEMORY VERSE:
“For our God is a consuming fire.”
Hebrews 12:29.

TODAY’S TEXT:
Hebrews 12:27-28.
“And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain. Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
As Christians, we are the most privileged creature made by God. The only one created in the likeness and image of God. When sin set in and Mankind got lost, God in His goodness paid the price for our return to His fold, through giving His only begotten son, as a sacrifice for our redemption.
Meanwhile, we are redeemed into God kingdom, with all the full benefits of sonship. And do know that, we are not just restore to any man-made god, but to the living God. Despite, God’s magnanimous acts towards man in redemption, our memory verse still says, “He is a consuming fire.”Do know that, God is not just a fire, or like a fire or like a consuming fire, rather He is a consuming fire.
However, let’s consider this thought. Are you standing or working against God in anyway? For we serve a powerful living God, which should not be toiled with.
Nevertheless, our today’s text enjoin us to note those things, that are shaken before they are remove. The question is, Is your faith shaken? Are you sure you are standing in God? Check yourself, as I check myself also, for 1 Corinthians 10:12 declared, *”Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.”*
Finally, for it is important, we do a daily thorough self cross examination and see for ourselves. It maybe through your actions, inactions, appearance, eating, character, and what a view. Please, ensure you desist from any negative acts now, for tomorrow maybe too late. The Bible says in Psalms 97:3; *”A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about.”* This is talking about God, let’s not forget Sodom and Gomorrah experience. May you not be consume in God’s wrath in Jesus name. Amen.

God bless you.
*Jesus is coming soon.*
Be prepared.

DAILY CONFESSION:
I will not fall away from grace, by God’s grace.

PRAYER POINT:
Father, keep me close to your heart. Help me Lord, to keep to your instructions and may I not work against you in anyway in Jesus name. Amen.

Yours in Christ,

THEME: Be Not Deceived.

MEMORY VERSE:
“In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.”
1 John 3:10.

TODAY’S TEXT:
1 John 3:7-8.
“Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous. He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
The Holy Spirit through our today’s text, sounds a great warning saying; Be Not Deceived. To be deceived is fall into deception. What is deception? It is an instance of actions or schemes fabricated to mislead and delude someone into error, believing a lie or inaccuracy.
Deception is one of the major mechanism employed Satan to derailed Christians. Quickly, let’s recall the scenario of Genesis 3:1-7; where Satan cleverly deceived Adam and Eve to act against God’s giving instructions. It got started by simple dialogue, which to the negative action.
More so, our text further affirms it that, he that commit sin, is of the devil. For he is the father of all sinners. And most importantly, Jesus; [The Way, the Truth and the Life] (John 14:6) the son of God was made manifest, in order to destroy the works of devil.
In conclusion, through our memory verse, the Holy Ghost distinguished between God’s children and the children of the devil, stating that whosoever do not practise righteousness is not of God, and anyone who hates his brethren. But man or woman that love and live in righteousness is of God. May you not be deceived in Jesus name. Amen.

God bless you.
*Jesus is coming soon.*
Be prepared.

DAILY CONFESSION:
I will not be deceived by the enemy. Through the grace of God in Christ Jesus, I will keep to the truth always.

PRAYER POINT:
Father, shine your light upon my life and reveal every work of the devil around me. May I continue to love and live in righteousness now and always in Jesus name. Amen.

Yours in Christ,

THEME: Victory In Christ Jesus.

MEMORY VERSE:
“But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”
1 Corinthians 15:57.

TODAY’S TEXT:
1 Corinthians 15:54-56.
“So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
Death is the final part or end of something. The non activeness of life and all living processes; the end of an organism’s existence as an entity independent from its environment and its return to an inert, nonliving state. Death can also said to be the life’s time keeper or the agent of hell, who sends souls out of the world to the grave.
More so, the scripture says; “And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment.” (Hebrews 9:27) The question is, after death what kind of judgement awaits you or me? The judgement of the saints or that of the wicked? Will my work on earth stand the heavenly test of fire? (1 Corinthians 3:15)
Meanwhile, as believers, we will triumph over grave and death. For we shall be bold as Lion, knocking down the power of the enemies (Satan, demons, grave and death) in Victory.
However, do know that sin is capable of robbing you of this victory. And we must ensure that, on daily basis, we do our best to remain in Victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Conclusively, well beloved of God, victory is sweet and everlasting, as long as we remain faithful and holy. Our today’s text reveals the blessings through fellowship and the knowledge of God’s grace available for us in Christ Jesus. May you remain victorious in Christ Jesus. Amen.

DAIILY CONFESSION:
Victory is mine. I am victorious now and always.

PRAYER POINT:
Father, thank you for giving me Victory in Christ Jesus. O Lord, may I not loose my Victory in Christ Jesus in Jesus name. Amen.

Yours in Christ,
B. J. Folorunsho.

Deuteronomy 2:7
“For the LORD thy God hath blessed thee in all the works of thy hand: he knoweth thy walking through this great wilderness: these forty years the LORD thy God hath been with thee; thou hast lacked nothing.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
In the opening of this series, we opined that life is a brisk journey with a starting green light and the red light, indicate it’s end. And that many affliction will arise, that can send friends and family parking out of shore. Dear friend, the truth is that God will make everything beautiful in HIS own time.
Meanwhile, you are where you are now, not by accident nor by chance but was preordained that you will be here, in order to get to where God is taking you to. Don’t forget, if Joseph was not sold, he would not be in Potiphar house, if he was not in Potiphar house, he would not land in prison and if not the prison, he would not know the chief butler and the privilege of the king’s dreams interpretation.
Beloved, *where you are now, is a step(s) away from your destination (destiny).* When Joseph got to his destination, in our memory verse, he declared to his brothers saying: _”You thought evil against me, but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day…”_ Just relax your mind, God is in control and HE will work things out for your good.
Finally, dearest in Christ, *do know that, you may be where you are, because of where God is taking you to and if it is not necessary or peculiar to your destination, God will not take you there.* Right now, ask God for the grace to overcome all problems associated with each phase of life you find yourself in Jesus name. Amen.

God bless you. *Jesus is coming very soon.*
Be prepared.

DAILY CONFESSION:
It doesn’t matter where I am now, one thing is sure, with God on my side, I will get to my destination.

Oh Lord, my Father, in your mercy and grace, help me through this valley of life. And Lord, it doesn’t matter where I am now, one thing is sure, with you on my side, I will get to my destination in Jesus name. Amen.

Yours in Christ,
B. J. Folorunsho.

THEME: Where You Are Now. I.

MEMORY VERSE:
“Yet did not the chief butler remember Joseph, but forgat him.”
Genesis 40:23.

TODAY’S TEXT:
Genesis 39:19-20.
And it came to pass, when his master heard the words of his wife, which she spake unto him, saying, After this manner did thy servant to me; that his wrath was kindled. And Joseph’s master took him, and put him into the prison, a place where the king’s prisoners were bound: and he was there in the prison.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
Life is a journey. A brisk journey indeed, it has a beginning and it’s end is inevitable for all. While in this journey, we will see several Bus stops, T junctions, Bends, Sharp corners of life and so on. Sometimes, we got stranded, helpless and discouraged, due to the narrowness of the path set before us in destiny.
Meanwhile, you may be rich and generous with it, at one point in time, but loose all in the game of life. You may be wretched and dejected, but be happy, for it is just a matter of time before you get to a better junction. For the scripture says; “He hath made everything beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.” (Ecclesiastes 3:11) Be rest assured that God beautiful moment, is around the corner.
At a point in time, that life seems to be smiling on Joseph, he was lied upon and ended in prison. And it seems as if to start all over again, it was as if the doors of heaven were shut against him, but God was watching.
Conclusively, the question is, where are you now? The people you thought of helping you, because of your relationship with them and their placement in life, can forget about you quickly, just as the chief Butler forget Joseph for many years, all because of where you are. But at the set time, Joseph was remembered. This season, may you be remember for good in Jesus name. Amen.

God bless you.
*Jesus is coming soon.*
Be prepared.

DAILY CONFESSION:
My life is in God’s hand and His glory will always be my covering.

PRAYER POINT:
O Lord, my Father, this day cause me to be remember for good, even in this valley of life, I found myself in Jesus name. Amen.
