THE NARROW WAY DAILY DIGEST.
DATE: Thursday, August 1, 2019.
THEME: The Lord’s Chosen. I.
MEMORY VERSE:
“But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.”
1 Samuel 16:7.
TODAY’S TEXT:
Acts 13:21-22.
“And afterward they desired a king: and God gave unto them Saul the son of Cis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, by the space of forty years. And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will.”
TODAY’S MESSAGE:
Humanly speaking when a man or a woman possesses a unique, special or extraordinary fixtures, that is obvious for eyes to see, this makes he or she to stand out, and become a point of attraction wherever they go. Although, it is said that, ‘Beauty is in the eyes of beholder,’ what appeal to one, may distract the others. And do know that it is what you carry that will showcase you to the world.
Similarly, you may have all the qualities of men, and men sings your praise, but if you don’t have little of heavenly qualifications, you will only remain a men pleaser and what draws men to you, and when its no longer there, men will dislodge you.
Meanwhile, when the Israelite ask for a king against God’s timing, Saul was given, he was tall, huge, handsome and fair in complexion. And when he was disposed, the prophet considered a man with similar appearance, but God rejected him, for his heart isn’t with the lord.
Conclusively, although appearance maybe appealing but the content of the heart, is what takes a man further in destiny. However, God testifies of David, as a man after his own heart, who will do His will. This implies that to be the Lord’s chosen, you must be a man or woman ready to do His will. May you continue to do His will in Jesus name. Amen.
God bless you.
*Jesus is coming very soon.* Be prepared.
DAILY CONFESSION:
I will remain in the will of the Lord God, and I will continue to do his will all my life.
PRAYER POINT:
Father, help me to remain your chosen and in your will for my life. Please Lord, give me the grace to do your will at all times in Jesus name. Amen.
