1 Samuel 10:1-11; 19:20-24
TOPIC:
IS SAUL AMONG THE PROPHETS❓
Memory Verse:
1 Sam. 10:11
MESSAGE:
The surprises expressed by the people when they heard Saul prophesy seems to suggest that there is more to being a prophet than prophesying. In fact, for repeating the question, “Is SAUL also among the prophets?” One should be left to maintain the claim that the hood does not really make the monk.
Being a prophet of God requires that one will first of all be a child of God. And then in answer to God’s call to service the person will dedicate his or her life to prayer, walking with God solitude, living a life of a moral rectitude, developing a courageous heart and labouring in His vineyard. Unfortunately, Saul could not really answer that question.
Assuming YOU are being posed with the same question today, what will be your response? Certainly, our generation is in dire need of true prophets. Our nation is the way it is today because genuine prophets are scarce. There are voices that declare without fear or favour the mind of God and provide direction for destiny fulfilment.
Can it be truly said that you are one of God’s prophets? Is anyone doubting your Christianity? It is time to prove them wrong.
CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
Prove that you are among the prophets.
PRAYER.
Lord, help me prove to my generation that your hand is truly upon my life.

ARE YOU LIVING TO PLEASE GOD ❓
DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL
Monday 28th September, 2020
Text:
1 Thessalonians 4:1-12
Topic:
ARE YOU LIVING TO PLEASE GOD❓
Memory verse:
“We ask you and urge you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received instruction from us about how you must live and please God…..that you do so more and more” (1Thess.4:1)
Message:
Many people live as though the world started with them and will eventually be concluded by their own terms. They think very little about God and His ways and more about self and things thereto.
Every time you look down on others or deny them of their rights and privileges, you are no better than Pharaoh and his taskmasters. The painful reality is that when you hold down a person, you are holding yourself. The fact that we profess Christianity makes it contradictory; for Christ liberates, self-enslaves. Slavery continues to take place in our homes today under the guise of house-helps, apprentices and the likes. In every generation, God is ever looking for a man who will stand in the gap so that others could be assisted. Whenever He finds any, God is pleased in no small measure. For such ones are helping to answer somebody’s prayer. The Bible says, a liberal soul shall be made fat and he that waters shall be watered also. We are the instruments God uses for His work if we make ourselves available. If a person is not forthcoming, God scouts for a replacement.
Samuel replaced Eli’s family.
Saul replaced Samuel’s family.
David replaced Saul’s family.
God concluded that those who honour Him, He will honour and those who despise Him, will be treated as nothing. For, “in His hand is the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind” (John 12:10). When a bird is alive it eats ants but when a bird dies ants eats it. Time and circumstances can change at any period. Try as much as you can never to devalue or hurt anyone in life.
You may be powerful today but remember, time is more powerful than you!
In 1985, Dasuki arrested Buhari when Babangida upturned the government through palace coup. By 2015, Buhari arrested Dasuki, when he came back to power as a civilian President. (just within 30years interval)
Be an imitator of God; don’t destroy. For God is a builder not a destroyer. Build someone today and you will be pleasing God.
CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
When you help someone, you have become the extension of God’s hand to the person.
PRAYER:
God grant me the grace to assist somebody today in Jesus’ name. Amen.

DID YOU KNOW ❗ EVEN NOW GOD IS THERE WITH YOU ❓
DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL
Wednesday 23rd September, 2020
Text:
Psalm 42:5-11
Topic:
DID YOU KNOW ❗ EVEN NOW GOD IS THERE WITH YOU❓
Memory verse:
“Where is thy God” (Psalm 42:3,10).
Message:
From the beginning of creation, God has been. He started before Genesis and He will be after Revelation. He is the Alpha and the Omega (the beginning and the end). He has been in order that we will be. He has sworn that He will not leave nor forsake us no matter any apparent catastrophe. A man was held by a particular community because he went to Evangelise the Word of God. They tied him to a tree and decided to kill him by having him shot by a hunter. After they tied him, the great hunter who was to shoot him, threw this question at him, “Where is your God now?” The man of God said “I live in Him; my God is here with me”. They all laughed him to scorn.
The great hunter positioned himself and shot the gun, but the man of God disappeared. God delivered him and that led to the repentance of a whole community.
Consider this:
My God is before me (Exodus 13:21).
He is behind me (Isaiah 52:12).
He is around me (Psalm 34:7).
He is above me (Ezekiel 11:22).
He is underneath me (Deut. 33:27).
He is with me (Isaiah 41:10),
He is within me (1Cor. 3:16).
What about you? The Psalmist speaks of how he makes his prayer “unto the God of my life” (vs. 8). Whatsoever life’s circumstances, you can always count on God being there! Are you enjoying His presence today? Even if you are at the point of delivery, be courageous God is there with you.
Make out time to search for Him through His words, prayers, hymns, etc., and you will find Him, for He is there with you.
CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
God’s presence silences man’s appearance in your life. Get connected to God.
PRAYER:
Father, open my eyes to behold thee in my life in Jesus name. Amen.

WHO IS YOUR BEST FRIEND ❓
DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL
Monday 21st September, 2020
Text:
John 15:13-18
Topic:
WHO IS YOUR BEST FRIEND❓
Memory verse:
“Ye are my friends, if ye do whatever I command you” (John 15:14)
Message:
Hard times often reveal the truth as to who our friends are. Are you grateful for the friends who have stayed with you through the highs and the lows, the thick and the thin, the smiles and the tears? Friends such as these should never be taken for granted as they are very rare. The Lord Jesus Christ is such a friend. We can take our cares and problems to Him, and He will stand by us through all our trials and tribulations.
These words of Jesus in the text convey the meaning of all He would do for us as our friend. They also convey what we must do to be His friends. Jesus laid down His life for us, which proves He is the greatest kind of friend we could have. As the Bible says, “For the joy that was set before Him, He endured the cross, despising the shame” (Hebrews 12:2). He did that for His friends; He was loyal to the end of His physical life. It was the joy of knowing His death would allow us to be His friends forever in eternal glory.
Remember, He is the best friend that sticks much closer than a brother. When we obey His commands, we become His friends. But when we disobey, we become His enemies. Once you see all the things that friendship with Jesus offers, you will realise that He is the best friend that you could ever have. Jesus is a friend so faithful. He shares in all our sorrows and He knows our every weakness. Are you His friend? Make Him your friend today by obeying His commands.
CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
Jesus’ friends do what He commands.
PRAYER:
Lord, as I obey Your word today, may I be Your friend. Amen.

Do You know that, TRIAL IS NOT DENIAL❓
DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL
September 19th September, 2020
Text:
Job 1:12-22
Topic:
DO YOU KNOW THAT, TRIAL IS NOT DENIAL ❓
Memory verse:
“But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold” (Job 23:10).
Message:
Trial is common to all men. There is no one that is above trial irrespective of position in life and status in the society. it is a painful period of test that every child of God should determine to emerge from more refined. No one bargains for it. Instead of weakening a child of God it should rather strengthen because it does not last forever. The important thing is the things you think, say and do at such period. it calls for careful words and actions. Let the Lord be glorified in that situation to the glory of God. Job lost almost all that he had, both children and livestock but in all, he did not sin nor charge God with wrong.
Your own period of trial might be unemployment after many years of search even with good certificate. It could be barrenness; it could be huge loss in your business, and it could be down turn of economy, or sudden poor educational performance of your children and many others. But like Job, make up your mind to come forth as gold after your trial. It is not palatable, but if Job who was a human that had blood flowing in his veins, could come forth as gold, you too can. It will be over and you shall tell your story.
In the end, Job got double of all that he lost. Only do all you can to ensure that the Lord is glorified. Feed your mind with relevant books and relate with people and things that will help increase your faith. Whatever your trial is, the end is very near. In fact, the end is nearer than you envisage. The aim is not to deny you any good thing but to strengthen you. Hold on to God more tenaciously, you will celebrate again and soonest.
CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
Trials is common to all, determine to finish strong.
PRAYER:
Oh Lord, help me to come forth as gold after any trial that comes my way. Amen.

DO YOU KNOW ❗ THERE IS POWER IN POSITIVE CONFESSION ❓
DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL
Thursday 17 September, 2020
Text:
Matthew 9:20-22
TOPIC:
DO YOU KNOW❗ THERE IS POWER IN POSITIVE CONFESSION❓
Memory Verse:
Proverb 18:21
MESSAGE:
It has been proven the years that one’s belief and, especially, confession have a large degree of influence over one’s circumstances. That is, whatever one believes and confesses repeatedly over one’s life shall definitely play out and materialise. This theory is confirmed by the female character of our study today.
According to the Scripture, the woman was suffering from hemorrhage for twelve years. Hemorrhage is “a medical condition in which a person bleeds too much and cannot stop the blood” (Merrriam – Webster dictionary). Following her condition, the sick woman sought help at the hands of physicans, and spent all she had. Yet, Her condition never got any better but, grew worse.
On a particular morning, the sick woman heard that Jesus was passing by. She went into the crowd and touched the cloak of Jesus. The Bible observes that she was saying to herself. “If I only touch His garment, I will get well”. That’s believe and positive confession! And true to her confession, she got well immediately she touched Jesus.
Dearly beloved, what have you been saying over your life and family? What have you been saying over your business, Office, Career, marriage, education, future, ministry, etc? Death and life are in the power of the tongue. Whatever you believe and say over your life shall eventually materialise. Speak positively today!
CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
Death and Life are in the power of the tongue.
PRAYER:
Father, help me to speak positively over my life, family and Future every day.

WHY NOT COMPLIMENT EACH OTHER ❓
DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL
Wednesday 16 September 2020
TOPIC:
WHY NOT COMPLIMENT EACH OTHER❓
KEY VERSE:
“Two people are better off than one,for they can help each other succeed. If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But someone who falls alone is in real trouble” (Ecclesiastes4:9-10).
TEXT:Eccl. 4:1-10
MESSAGE:
What do you do in your church? Who will do what is a question that every member must answer? However, the gifts and abilities of each person should be considered. One may be more qualified than another in a particular task. Why not use the player best qualified in that area.
This does not mean that once one person accepts a responsibility, the others will never offer to help with the task. Love seeks to help and often will. In Ecclesiastes, King Solomon wrote clearly about the value of TEAMWORK. As a couple, you can accomplish more together than you can as two different individuals because you are there to help each other. The Scriptures do not tell us exactly who should do what, but they do encourage us to agree on the answer.
The prophet Amos once asked, “Can two people walk together without agreeing on the direction?” (Amos 3:3). The answer is, “Not very far and not very well.” Please keep negotiating until both of you feel good about who is doing what in your family, Church, office, etc.
That one will pursue a thousand but two will pursue ten thousand clearly shows the power of complimenting each other.
CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
One is too small to accomplish greatness; we need each other.
PRAYER:
Lord, make me an effective team player.

WHY NOT ADMIT YOUR WRONGS❓
DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL
TUESDAY 15 September 2020
Text:
Hosea 5:10-15
TOPIC:
WHY NOT ADMIT YOUR WRONGS❓
Memory Verse:
Hosea 5:15
Message:
The beauty of relationship is the reign of understanding and forgiveness. So long as we are still wearing flesh, we are all prone to offending people both consciously and unconsciously. But, troubles often start when we tend to have no regard for the feelings and hurts of the people we offend. When we put up such attitude, it affects people’s responses to us. Those who lack the courage to confront us will naturally hold their grievances and withhold whatever favours we might ever get from them. This poor relationship attitude is more detrimental when we bring it into our relationship with God.
The princes of Judah were adjudged to be like those who removed ancient landmark. In other words, they had violated the most scared laws of God upon which the ordinances of His worship and the rights and properties of men depend. They broke down the barrier between what was right and wrong; between truth and falsehood (Deuteronomy 27:17). Now rather than acknowledge their offences and plead for God’s mercy, they took the path of callousness. And consequently, God vowed to return back to His abode until they acknowledge their offences and sought His face.
Many sick and ailing relationships would be healed today, if the concerned persons accept to acknowledge their offences. This is exactly what the Lord will have us to do today.
CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
It takes humility to say, “I am sorry.” But, these three simple words can unlock a lot of closed doors.
PRAYER:
Lord, give me the courage and humility to admit it when I am wrong.

WHY NOT TRUST IN GOD’S WISDOM ❓
DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL
Monday 14 September 2020
Text :
Isaiah 46:1-13
Topic :
WHY NOT TRUST IN GOD’S WISDOM❓
Memory verse:
Isaiah 46:9-10
Message :
Some people make prayers they never receive answers and they wonder why it is easy to look at our current situations and wonder why things are happening the way they are. We wonder why the relationship didn’t work out; why the promotion went to someone else, or why the business deal did not go through. We can only see one moment at a time, but God knows how today’s situations will impact us in the future.
Sometimes, the best thing that can happen is the exact opposite of what we wished to happen at the time. God knows the end from the beginning, and He always has the sequence of events in our lives in perfect order. Stay in faith and trust that just as God opens doors, He also closes doors because He has something better in store for you. You are about to see new growth, new talents, new opportunities. Trust His wisdom because He is wiser than the wisest.
As you go out today, go with this song by Mari John Wilkin “One day at a time sweet Jesus, that’s all i’m asking from you; Lord help me today, show me the way, one day at a time.”
CONTROLLING THOUGHTS :
Trust God’s wisdom to guide and direct you today
PRAYER:
Father, help me to rely on Your wisdom alone. Amen.

IS IT NOT TIME TO ORGANISE YOURSELF ❓
DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL
Saturday 12 September 2020
Text : PROV. 30: 24-31
Topic : IS IT NOT TIME TO ORGANISE YOURSELF❓
Memory verse:
Proverbs 30:25
Message :
From the human perspective, ants are reputably among the tiniest insects on earth. Ants are too infinitesimal. We climb on them, crush them with the soles of our feet or with our finger – tips without even noticing. However, the text today reveals something special about the ants – they are meticulous and are always well – prepared . They prepare for their future so that they will not starve. How much of a planner are you? Do you live your life in a disorganised or shabby way? Really, this has nothing to do with your economic or spiritual status. How organised is your office, family, church and wherever you are in charge of?
You can achieve a lot more if you get more organised. Yes, you can, unfortunately, we live in a world that a typical person wants to lump up things and then later rummage the rubble. But as we look at the God we serve you will notice that we serve a God who is well organised. He created the heavens and the earth in an orderly pattern ( Genesis 1). God is not the author of confusion. He is a God of order. We therefore must emulate Him and be organised.
The truth is that one of the reasons we were not able to actualise some of our goals this year is that we were very much disorganised. One of the greatest favours we can do to ourselves as we approach the End of the Year is to take some time to organise our lives before we cross over into it New One, It is time to have an organised prayer life, financial plan, living and work environments. It is time to put things in order if we must move forward.
CONTROLLING THOUGHTS :
Do not spiritualize organisational issues.
PRAYER:
Lord, I ask for grace to be organised in every aspect of my life.
