The Haunted Ones. IV.

THE NARROW WAY DAILY DIGEST.

DATE: Monday, April 15, 2019.

THEME:
The Haunted Ones. IV.

MEMORY VERSE:
“And, behold, the angel of the Lord came upon him, and a light shined in the prison: and he smote Peter on the side, and raised him up, saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands.”
Acts 12:7.

TODAY’S TEXT:
Acts 12:1-3.
“Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church. And he killed James the brother of John with the sword. And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.)”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
In the last part of this series, we considered Jeremiah’s good work and patience. We saw conspiracy against his good work and ministry. How people, he cared for repaid him with lies, with uproar, with imprisonment, with scourging and so on.
Notwithstanding, our today’s text further informed us of how a certain King Herod, rose against the church, in order to please a group of over zealous people. He killed Apostle James Zebedee, to haunt the early church. More so, he wanted to kill Apostle Simon Peter; who he put in prison, to be executed on a particular feast day.
Furthermore beloved in Christ, this is a pointer that the enemy is never satisfied, he is always wanting to cause more havoc. However, if we don’t take our rightful place in Christ Jesus, by standing in the gap for one another, the enemy may continue to have it’s way.
Conclusively, reading the passage further, you will realise that God sent an Angel to liberate Peter. An answer to the prayer of the church for him. When you pray for me, and I pray for you, together we destroy the devices of the haunter. May the good Lord intervene in our situation: as we move in one accord in Jesus name. Amen.

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

DAILY CONFESSION:
Holy Spirit; the Comforter, set me on fire, for the unity of the body of Christ.

PRAYER POINT:
Father, help the church to be in one accord, with unity of purpose. Oh Lord, may the enemy not sieve me away before my time in Jesus name. Amen

The Haunted Ones. III.

THE NARROW WAY DAILY DIGEST.

DATE: Saturday, April 13, 2019.

THEME: The Haunted Ones. III.

MEMORY VERSE:
“…When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him.”
Isaiah 59:19.

TODAY’S TEXT:
Jeremiah 18:18, 20.
“Then said they, Come, and let us devise devices against Jeremiah… Come, and let us smite him with the tongue, and let us not give heed to any of his words. Shall evil be recompensed for good? for they have digged a pit for my soul. Remember that I stood before thee to speak good for them, and to turn away thy wrath from them.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
In the last part of this series, we saw the righteous Job; a man that fear God and eschew evil. Notwithstanding, Satan haunted him to the level, that his wife was fed up and she asked him to curse God in order to die and be free of his predicament.
However, our today’s text, present us with the evil counsel established against prophet Jeremiah to haunt him. The enemies devised means to silence him, rendered him useless and fruitless.
Meanwhile, despite their lies, their uproar, their imprisonment and beating, Jeremiah remain good to them and he focused on what God has to say, to his generation.
Furthermore, the scripture says: “Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets.”
(Matthew 23:31) So, this is the pointer that the children of the wicked one, inherits wickedness, therefore, children of the righteous, should definitely inherits righteousness. Let ensure our wards, inherits from us, the fear of God and righteousness.
Finally, our memory verse expressly stated that, “…When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him.” Dear friend, be rest assured that you are not alone, God got your back. May the spirit of God, continue to raise a standard against every flood, the enemies sends your way in Jesus name. Amen.

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

DAILY CONFESSION:
God is for me, let no man trouble me.

PRAYER POINT:
Father, you never leave your own helpless, you are instant help in time of need. Oh Lord, no matter how bad is the situation, let help arise for me instantly in Jesus name. Amen.

The Haunted Ones. II.

THE NARROW WAY DAILY DIGEST.

DATE: Friday, April 12, 2019.

THEME: The Haunted Ones. II.

MEMORY VERSE: “Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.”
Psalms 105:15.

TODAY’S TEXT:
Job 1:8-10.
“And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?
Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
The opening of this series, exposed us to fact that Christians all over the world, are haunted day and night by our archenemy, who steal, kill and destroy.
In the same vein, our today’s text present us with one of the copious examples of Satan’s mission against believers. God testified of Job’s faithfulness and commitment to righteousness, but Satan think otherwise, he protested that the reason, why Job fear God, is because of God’s goodness to him. He asked God to leave Job for him to haunt.
However, Job 1:11, further detailed their conversation, it says; “But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face.” He suggested that God should remove his hands from Job’s life and that Job will curse God. Allthough, Job lost everything he had, even his wife ask him to curse God. Hallelujah! Job did not curse God. If I may ask, If you are in Job’s shoe, will you curse God? God forbid.
Furthermore, as long as you start walking in righteousness, be ready for Satan’s hunting and severe attack from every corner, as a target.
Conclusively, our memory verse, brings to us what the word of God, says concerning you to your enemies: “Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.” Though, the enemies may haunt, but they are not permitted to harm you. May you continue to enjoy the divine providence in Jesus name. Amen.

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

DAILY CONFESSION:
By divine providence, no harm will come my way.

PRAYER POINT:
Father, your word change not, it fulfills what you sent it for. Oh Lord, let me not loose, the potency of your word over my life. And may I be free from all harms in Jesus name. Amen.

The Haunted Ones. I.

THE NARROW WAY DAILY DIGEST.

DATE: Thursday, April 11, 2019.

THEME: The Haunted Ones. I.

MEMORY VERSE:
“Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed.”
2 Corinthians 4:9.

TODAY’S TEXT:
1 Peter 5:8-9.
“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour. Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
The dark and sinful nature of this world, makes this world uneasy to live for the children of righteousness or progress in their father’s bidden. Not to forget it’s devilish inhabitants: such as fallen angels and ungodly personalities, who always hunt for souls of the righteous to destroy.
Notwithstanding, our today’s text, openly declared the situation of things to us; as believers. To start with, we are to be modest, realistic and to be at-alert at all times. Not forgetting, that the enemy of our souls, is still on rampage, working day and night to steal, kill and destroy. May you not be a victim in Jesus name. Amen.
The agony of the spiritual man and woman in Christ Jesus is basically sponsor by the archenemy of righteousness; Satan, who marked the righteous man and woman as the haunted ones.
Furthermore, our memory verse expressly confirmed that Christians are the haunted and deprived ones. It says; ” *Persecuted* , but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed.”
Wellbeloved, however to sum up, the concluding part of our memory verse stated that, though we are persecuted, we are not forsaken and when it seems that we are cast down, it is not to our destruction. Because, 1 John 4:4 revealed that,
_”Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.”_ May God manifest HIMSELF on your behalf in Jesus name. Amen.

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

DAILY CONFESSION:
Greater is He that is me.

PRAYER POINT:
Father in your mercy, whatever the enemies may plan to haunt me, let it be ineffective against my life. Give me grace to remain an overcomer all the days of my life in Jesus name. Amen.
