CAN YOU TRY AGAIN ❓

Saturday 30 November 2019

TOPIC:
CAN YOU TRY AGAIN❓

KEY VERSE:
“…Seven times Elijah said, ‘Go back'” (1 Kings 18:43, NIV).

TEXT:1 Kings 18:41-46

MESSAGE:
Lieut.Col. Odimegwu Ojukwu’s army was once defeated and scattered by a powerful enemy whose strength and resolve had been badly underestimated. Ojukwu himself had managed to escape into an old deserted Bunka while the enemy troops scouted the country side in search for him. His troops were either hiding or running.

Desperate and defeated, Odimegwu lay with his face In the dirt of that old Bunka floor watching an Ant attempt to carry a single kernel of corn over a perpendicular wall. The kernel was much larger than the Ant and so it was quiet a struggle. Sixty-nine times the Ant attempted to carry it up the wall. The Lieut. Col. counted each attempt. Sixty-nine times the Ant fell back with his oversized load. On the seventieth trial, the tenacious Ant managed to push the grain of corn over the top.

This demonstration of strength and persistence and final victory in the face of overwhelming obstacles so excited col.Odimegwu that he leaped to his feet with a shout. Quickly he left his hiding place, recognised the forces he could mobilise and went into the battle again. This time he was triumphant, putting his enemies to fight, until the War ended up in “No Victor No Vanquish”,

Many times in life we tend to give up after a few failed attempts. But God’s Word is encouraging us that we need not easily give up. Is it not surprising that Elijah had to keep praying for the rain God had promised to send? He continued to pray and kept checking up for the sign until he got it. Keep pressing forward, there is a sound of abundance. But if you TRY and fail, please TRY Again until victory is assured.

CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
Don’t give up; Winners never Quit and Quitters never Win.

PRAYER:
Lord, help me to develop a never giving up spirit.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
Zephaniah 1-3;
Colossians 4

WHAT TIME IS YOUR TIME ❓

DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Friday 29 November 2019

TOPIC:
WHAT “TIME” IS YOUR TIME⁉

KEY VERSE:
“There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven” (Eccl. 3:1).

TEXT:
Matthew 7:7-11

MESSAGE:
Your blessing might not come if God’s timing is different than yours. God may want you to wait and grow in dependence on Him before He gives you something.

Take note of Psalm 18:30 which says “As for God, his way is perfect. All of the Lord’s promises prove true. He is a shield for all who look to him for protection” (NLT). That means He knows when it is the right time for us to receive certain blessings and when it is not.

Writer said:
“A cosmic clock is ticking, it was established by God, not just for the vast movements of the universe but for every situation in your life. If you are frustrated by it, wondering why God is not rushing an answer to your earnest prayer, then feel at home. You’re part of a long list of people – biblical heroes included who have struggled with God’s timing.

If you are struggling with God’s timing, the standard counsel will be: BE PATIENT❕ Your answer will come.
Christmas is around the corner: please be patient
You have projects at hand not yet completed: please be patient
All your mate are married except you: please have little patience with God… Gods time is the best

CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
“Patience is the calm acceptance that things can happen in a different order than the one you have in mind” (Ogechi Ka Nma).

PRAYER:
Lord, give me the right attitude to appreciate your timing.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
2 Chronicles 21-22; Luke 9:1-17

WHY NOT ASK IN FAITH❓

DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL:

Thursday 28 November 2019

TOPIC:
WHY NOT ASK IN FAITH❓

KEY VERSE:
“Whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours” (Mark 11:24).

TEXT:
Matthew 7:7-11

MESSAGE:
While we all know that God is good and He loves to bless His children, at the same time, He knows our hearts and understands when we put our faith to work. So, another reason that our expected blessings might not come is, if you are not asking in faith, truly believing he will

Read what our Lord and Saviour Jesus taught His followers: “Whatever you ask in prayer you will receive, if you have faith” (Matt. 21:22) and “Whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours” (Mark 11:24).

Jesus also said in Mark 9:23 that everything is possible to him who believes. But if you are having trouble believing that, ask God to help your unbelief. Jesus honoured the sincerity of the man who asked for something and followed it up with ‘help me to overcome my unbelief!'” (Mark 9:24).

CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
“Activate your faith, live in victory, speak over your life and expect things to come your way”.

PRAYER:
O Lord, fill me with the faith that connects me to my blessings.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
2 Chronicles 19-20; Luke 8:26-56

WHAT DO YOU DO IN THE DAYS OF YOUR TROUBLE ❓

DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Wednesday 27 November 2019

TOPIC:
WHAT DO YOU DO❗ IN THE DAYS OF YOUR TROUBLE❓

KEY VERSE:
“And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me” (Psalm 50:15,KJV)

TEXT:
Psalm 20:1-8; 50:15

MESSAGE:
Some days are not like others. A time comes when we wake up to meet some challenges that present themselves as insurmountable. At such times our best are never good enough. In fact, the more we try to grapple with the situation the more it gets out of hands. Some days like that pressures lose all their weights on us and want to press life out of our being. Sure moments are what the Bible calls the day of trouble. Unfortunately, such days cannot be wished away.

But God’s Word today tells us what to do when we meet such days. We are not to do our best to deal with it. We are not to go into hiding. We must not think of committing suicide. The Lord says, ‘call upon me in the day of trouble ‘.He said so because He is our trouble solver. There is no impossible situation with Him. The problem He cannot solve does not exist. The cause of the trouble is the subject matter. It makes no difference whether you, your parents, spouse, siblings, neighbours or even demons are the cause of the trouble. God says that all you need to do in the day of trouble is to call upon him.

The assurances of God’s Word in Psalm 20 should make us courageous enough to face this day.

“In your day of trouble, may the Lord be with you! May the God of Jacob keep you from all harm. May He send you aid from his sanctuary in Zion. May he remember with pleasure the gifts you have given Him, your sacrifices and burnt offerings. May he grant you your heart’s desire and fulfil all your plans. May there be shouts of joy when we hear the news of your victory, flags flying with praise to God for all that he has done for you. May He answer all your prayers!” from now and henceforth. Amen.

CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
God is an ever present help in times of trouble.

PRAYER:
Lord I glorify your name for hearing my call in the day of trouble.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
1 Samuel 7-9; Ephesians 5:1-16

WHERE IS YOUR HOPE ❓

DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Tuesday 26th November 2019

Text:
Proverbs 23:17-18

TOPIC:
WHERE IS YOUR HOPE❓

Message:
Yes, only God is worthy enough to be the object of our hope! He is changeless, faithful to the core and ever beautiful for all situations. He created the Earth out of nothing; and He alone sustains the same, owing His existence to no other but Himself. What He does for His own at any given time is not determined by circumstances or any other force or being. He doesn’t disappoint hope; He fulfils it.

As we consider our text today, we’ re encouraged to know that our hope in God will not be disappointed, regardless of whatever force the enemy musters against us. God could literally go lengths to suspend even the natural laws and some other protocols, just to ensure that our hope in Him is neither shattered, nor our expectations cut off.

Indeed, it’s better to hope in Him than whatever situation we may find ourselves in. When we do, we’ll learn the art of calmly waiting on Him amidst the storms of life; we’ll be on top of everything situation, instead of fretting about it. Joy is one sure emotion that reveals we’re atop the situation, whatever it might be. This is because, among other things, the hope we have in God makes us see God as our strength!  Our souls remain unconquered, and our joy is not seasonable! And we dare to rejoice ahead of time because we already have the outcome of the battle it ever begins.

CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
Hope in Him yet; He will certainly cause you to walk upon your high places.

PRAYER:
Lord, strengthen my hope in Your Word and in Your person.

BIBLE READING FOR THE YEAR:
2 Chronicles 15-16;  Luke 7:31-50
