“And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.”

“For the vile person will speak villany, and his heart will work iniquity, to practise hypocrisy, and to utter error against the LORD, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail. The instruments also of the churl are evil: he deviseth wicked devices to destroy the poor with lying words, even when the needy speaketh right.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
The last part of this series, ‘The Doughnut Heart,’ exposed us to the fact that, any heart that is void of Jesus, is an empty heart, a heart without grace and love of God. And that such heart cannot find a lasting rest and peace.
Meanwhile, before our Lord Jesus Christ was revealed to the sinful world, our memory verse expressly stated in Genesis 6:5,
_”And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.”_ Invariably, a heart without Jesus is desperately wicked. His thoughts are full of all kinds evil imaginations.
Dear friend, our today’s text further detailed the nefarious contents of a doughnut heart: i.e, a heart that is empty of Jesus’s love and grace. *It will speak vainly, work in iniquities, practice hypocrisy and utter error against God.*
In conclusion beloved in Christ, such a heart, device unpleasant instruments of evil, to the destruction of the innocent souls through lies. May God bless our hearts now and always with grace and love of Christ Jesus, in Jesus name. Amen.

THEME: YOUR KNOWLEDGE ABOUT JESUS.

MEMORY VERSE:
“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”
2 Timothy 2:15.

TODAY’S TEXT:
Acts 3:6-8.
“Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk. And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ancle bones received strength. And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
A popular adage says, “Knowledge is power.” The truth is that the more knowledge one acquired, the more empowered you will be. Knowledge serves as fuel, that propel ability to manifest.
Many years ago, I was paired with a pastor to go on evangelism. On getting to a street, we met three people in a shop, all bears Christian names, after the greetings, my Pastor then asked them, “Do you know Jesus?” They quickly responded, “Yes.” If I were the one then, I will simply pray for them and left. But the pastor quickly asked them, “How much of HIM do you know or do you know Jesus personally?
Notwithstanding, their answers shows that they were all church goers, with little or no knowledge of Jesus. And the Pastor took his time to talk about Jesus, he reintroduce them to Jesus and charge them to ensure daily personal relationship with Jesus.
Furthermore, our memory verse expressly stated, *”Study to show yourself approved unto God* Meaning: Study births knowledge, and knowledge produces Ability to manifest inherent potentials.
Conclusively, our today’s text gives us practical example of having adequate knowledge about Jesus. Peter and John brought their knowledge to play, and a lame man receive his feet back. May the grace to have and continue in personal relationship with Jesus remain with us always in Jesus name. Amen.

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

DAILY CONFESSION:
That I may know HIM and the power of HIS resurrection.

PRAYER POINT:
Father, help me to study your word daily. And by grace, let me daily experience the power of your resurrection in Jesus name. Amen.

“And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you: To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
What is a doughnut? It is a dessert made of pastry having an eclipse shape, with a hole in the middle of it. Therefore, a doughnut heart is the heart that is void of virtue and grace available in Christ Jesus. Invariably, a heart without Jesus is an empty heart, which is easily toss about with different doctrine and believe.
More so, although donuts people seems to possess sweet things of life all around them, but have no rest but of mind. Our memory verse declared that, *”They call to Egypt, they go to Assyria.”* wandered in unpleasant places.
Wellbeloved, let not forget that unless Jesus fill once heart, one cannot be completed. However, our today’s text practically exposed us to one of the basis of christian heart, which is love. It is only in Christ Jesus, we can truly love and increase in love.

Meanwhile, whatever destiny that had gone bad or worse, dear friend, Jesus is readily available and able to amends it. And if the case is beyond amendment, trust God with Jesus, it can be replaced with new glorious ones.
Furthermore, the men were liberated from not having awareness of things around them, to taken control of their destiny and life.
