DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Text:
Proverbs 27:2-6

TOPIC:
WHO IS YOUR MENTOR❓

MEMORY VERSE:
Proverbs 27:6

Message:
Nothing stabilizes and grows faith and walk of a genuine child of God like being open to account for his or her actions to someone who can lovingly correct him or her. When it comes to the area of leadership, it is absolutely necessary to have someone to account to, a person that has earned your trust.
“YOUR MENTOR!”

There is a great wisdom in the saying that if you are a candidate for growth in life, you must have someone to refer to, someone who tells you the truth whether it is bitter or sweet, someone who will frown when others are hypocritically clapping for you. Veteran devotion writer, Bob Gass wrote: “open your life to a few carefully selected friends who’ll tell you the truth; friends who’ve earned the right to examine you, question you, and counsel you”.

It is in the above context that Solomon wrote our study text for today. That is also what informed Paul’s advice to the Ephesians to keep “submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God” (Eph. 5:21) and the Apostle James added, “confess your faults one to another and pray one for another, that ye may be healed” (James 5:16). Peter was corrected by Paul. Joshua was instructed by Moses. Elisha was tested by Elijah. Are you greater than they? Yet, pride will not permit many to accept this wisdom. Resist that pride!

CONTROLLING THOUGHT:
Your best friend may not necessarily be your best cheerleader.

PRAYER:
Lord Jesus, help me to love the truth and connect me to genuine friends who will tell me the truths that I need to make progress in life. Amen.

BIBLE READING FOR THE YEAR:
Psalms 57-59; Acts 21: 18-40

Pentecost day -The promised power

Text:
Act 1:4-8

TOPIC:
PENTECOST DAY-THE PROMISED POWER

Memory Verse:
Act 1:8

MESSAGE:
One of the biggest trade shows in the world is the annual Consumer Electronics Show hosted by the consumer Technology Association each year in Las Vegas. More than 180,000 people browse booths filled with the latest gadgets, tools, and toys put on display by hundred of vendors. The show in January of 2018 featured an unusual and unwelcome interruption – the electricity went out for more than two hours. Without power, none of the devices worked, no matter how advanced and how cutting edge they might be.

The Christian Life and our work for God depend on power, and that power does not come from us. The instruction that Jesus gave to His disciples was to not attempt to begin their work until they had received the promised power: “And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me” (Act 1:4) There are many sincere, dedicated, and devoted people who are not seeing the kind of result they want from their ministry because they are not operating in God’s power.

The Holy Spirit is given to every believer at the moment of salvation. But there is an ongoing process of allowing His Power to flow through us “And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the spirit” (Ephesians 5:18). There is no shortage of power on God’s part. His ” transmission lines” never go down. Ask Him to empower you today. This year’s Pentecost Day should mark another season of power encounter for you. Don’t miss it. The promise is also for you.

CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
Effective work and ministry can only be accomplished through the power of the Holy Spirit on our lives.

PRAYER:
Lord, I don’t want to experience power failure, I need a fresh impartation,

BIBLE READING FOR THE YEAR:
Jeremiah 12-14; Matthew 22: 23-46
