Word for Today:

Rejoicing when challenged?

Ministry of the Word(MOW) : True Spirituality(TS).

Memory Verse

“My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing” ( James 1:2-4).

Beloved

Yes, all things work together for good to them that love God.

Praising God when faced with challenges is one subject that many believers have really struggled with. How do you rejoice when you are experiencing a major challenge or trauma eg the loss of a loved one? Yet, that is exactly what St James is asking us to do as believers . Believe me, this will be difficult with man; only the Holy Spirit dwelling in a man can accomplish this.

Remember Joseph in prison for crime he did not commit. Remember Daniel being thrown into the lion den following false accusations. Did you expect them to rejoice? You will notice that both joy and long suffering are together as fruit of the Spirit: “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law” ( Galatians 5:22-23).

Learning to rejoice and praise God in the middle of problem is a life secret that many believers need to learn . Remember when king Jehoshaphat of Judah was to be attacked by three nations . How he appointed praise singers to praise God and all his enemies turned against themselves (2Chronicles 20:21-23).

This explains why apostle Paul standing on the word of God, assured us:

“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose” ( Romans 8:28).

There is no problems that you are having now that others have not passed through.

Have you praised God in Christ Jesus this morning?

Have a Spirit- filled new day.

Be sensitive to the Holy Spirit.

Thank you Jesus for waking us up this morning.

Prayer Point

Father, please give us the grace to praise you no matter what we are passing through in Jesus mighty name. Amen.

Yours in the Vineyard of Christ.

Word for Today :

Do not just work for money.

Ministry of the Word(MOW) : True Spirituality (TS).

Memory Verse

“And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ” (Col 3:23-24).

Dearly Beloved

Whatsoever you do, do it heartily as to the Lord. Do not just work for the sake of the money you are paid.

Whenever, you have an opportunity to do any work, whether paid or voluntary job, please do it heartily as to the Lord. Believe me, whatever salary or wage you get from your employer is nothing, compared to the spiritual reward that only the Lord gives.

Many people are not committed to the the work given to them whenever they have an opportunity to contribute something to life. Be a builder! Do not be in the companion of destroyers. Never forget, while on earth everyone is a co-labourer with God (1Corinthians 3:9).

Be kind, compassionate, sincere, faithful, honest, transparent, diligent and passionate about whatever ever task you are opportune to undertake for the sake of God in Christ.

“Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest” ( Ecclesiastes 9:10).

Have a Spirit- filled new day.

Be sensitive to the Holy Spirit.

Thank you Jesus for waking us up this morning.

Prayer Point

Father, please give us the grace to do every work with sincerity and passion expected of us in Jesus mighty name. Amen.

Yours in the Vineyard of Christ.

Word for Today :

There is fire in the word of God.

Ministry of the Word (MOW): True Spirituality (TS)

Memory Verse

“Is not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces? ” (Jeremiah 23:29).

Dearly Beloved

There is fire in the word of God. There can be no true light without fire. Darkness is terrible. In darkness, your best friend can harm you significantly, without you knowing. Many people are afraid of light because it exposes evil deeds. Jesus is the fire and the light of this world.

If you fully have Jesus, then you should be on fire for the Lord. The fire in you should generate light for others to see. Remember that not everyone are ready to follow light, because light exposes:

“And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil” ( John 3:19).

Have a Spirit- filled new week.

Be sensitive to the Holy Spirit,

Thank you Jesus for the gift of life.

Prayer Point

Dear Father, please help us to experience the fire in your word and to be a true source of light in a dark world in Jesus mighty name. Amen.

Yours in the Vineyard of Christ.

Word for Today:

If the word of God has not been my delight…

Ministry of the Word (MOW):True Spirituality (TS)

Memory Verse

“Unless thy law had been my delights, I should then have perished in mine affliction” ( Psalm 119:92)

Dearly Beloved

Let’s promote the word of God on earth. There nothing the word of God cannot accomplish. Many people have perished because they lack the knowledge of the word of God.

There is truly no difference between God and His word ( John 1:1). Like the Psalmist, let us delight in the word of God. When we delight in the word of God, we would know what to do when challenges come.

“O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever” (Psalm 136:1).

Let’s give thanks to God in Christ Jesus for the grace, mercy and life in His word.

Happy Sunday people of God.

Have a Spirit-filled new week.

Thank you Jesus for life.

Prayer

Father, we thank you for your words that have kept us alive. Please, accept our thanks in Jesus name. Amen

Yours in the Vineyard of Christ.
