ARE YOU STILL IN DISOBEDIENCE TO GOD ❓

1 Samuel 15:10 -19

Topic:
ARE YOU STILL IN DISOBEDIENCE TO GOD❓

Memory verse:
1 Samuel 15:22b – 23a.

Message:
People give instructions to other people daily in different spheres and they expect obedience to such instructions. If human beings can expect total obedience from their fellow human beings whom they did not create, how much more God, the Creator of the whole universe?

In the text herein, God had instructed prophet Samuel to direct King Saul to smite Amalek and utterly destroy everything that had breath sparing nothing, both men, women, and animals. This was their punishment for their bastardly act against the children of Israel when they left Egypt, on their way to Canaan. Saul had partially obeyed God by destroying everything, except king Agag of Amalek, the best of sheep, oxen, darlings, lambs and all that was good in his sight. This act of disobedience greatly angered God and God regretted the day He made Saul the king of Israel. This also grieved prophet Samuel. Prophet Samuel then went to King Saul on God’s instructions.

The prophet Samuel asked king Saul a very pertinent question and made the following remarks, “Has the Lord a great delight in burnt  offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey (the Lord) is better than sacrifice and to hearken than the fat of rams? For rebellion is like the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, he hath also rejected thee from being king.”

Often, people disobey God not minding the consequences of such disobedience. We take God for granted just because we are in the dispensation of Grace. This is not good. Obey God and His Word, so that you can escape the consequences of disobedience which include pain, sorrow, death, hellfire and other negative consequences.

CONTROLLING THOUGHT:
Disobedience to God has negative consequences.

PRAYER:
Lord, give me the grace  to obey You always. Amen

BIBLE READING FOR THE YEAR:
Isaiah 11 – 13; Mark 4:1-20

DO YOU THINK ❗ YOU ARE ALONE ❓

DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Saturday 25 January 2019

Text :
DEUT. 31:5-8

Topic :
DO YOU THINK ❗YOU ARE ALONE❓

Memory verse:
DEUT. 31:8

Message :
Loneliness is a global phenomenon. It is among the leading causes of death globally. It causes depression and even at times, suicide. Nobody wants to be lonely. Remember that when God created Adam, He saw that Adam was lonely and He created Eve not just to help Adam, but to also be his companion.

The text above clearly also show another situation that loneliness was almost becoming evident. Here Mose who had been told by God that he will not take the children of Israel into the Promised Land of Canaan, was preparing them for that Journey. He encouraged them that they should be strong and of good courage for the Lord will always be with them as a mighty God and will cause them to inherit the promised Land. Moses emphasized that God will not leave them lonely, neither will He forsake them. Indeed throughout the entire Journey, God never left the children of Israel lonely.

Are you battling with loneliness? Are you feeling lonely? Do you feel that the world has abandoned you all to yourself? Cheer up, the Lord is with you. God will never leave you alone. He is always with you and will always be there for you. Just reach out to the Lord in prayer and study more of His word furthermore, enjoy the fellowship with family and  other brethren and  take time out to enjoy the activities that you always appreciate. Remember, God is always with you and He will never leave you alone. Remain blessed.

CONTROLLING THOUGHTS :
You are never alone.

PRAYER:
God make me to remember that I am never alone, that you are always with me.

DO YOU KNOW ❗ YOU CAN AVOID SATANIC VOICES ❓

DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL

FRIDAY 24 January 2020

Text:
Matthew 16:13-23

TOPIC:
DO YOU KNOW❗YOU CAN AVOID SATANIC VOICES❓

Memory Verse:
2 Corinthians 11:14

MESSAGES:
Very often, we think of Satan as one weird, monstrous creature. Some people have even gone as far as drawing him with horns and tails. Far from that! Our text reveals the characteristics of Satan and cautions us to be wary of his devices. Satan at times present himself as the angel of light.

It is instructive to note here that although Satan is a fallen angel; he, however, incarnate himself in people who open themselves up to him. He then uses them in his efforts to pervert and resist the purpose of God. Pray that, like Peter, you would not make the mistake of yielding yourself to Satan today.

The Lord Jesus was sensitive enough to recognise the voice of Satan. Satan still speaks through people, so be careful. Satan’s voice comes to draw you away from God’s agenda for your life to defocus you. It comes to make you not to be mindful of the things of God but the things of men. It calls you to turn to the broad way that leads to destruction. It echoes to defocus you from the way of the cross. BEWARE! Live in the spirit, and the spirit of God Himself will give you the enabling power to discern voice that are contrary to the voice of God.

Arm yourself with the Word of God and constantly dwell in the presence of God, so that you can discern any camouflage that Satan wants to use in controlling your life.

CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
BEWARE Satan’s allurement may be appealing but very offensive and destructive.

PRAYER:
Lord, give me the strength to fight my battles.

WILL YOU GIVE UP TO CHALLENGES ❓

DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Thursday 23 January 2020

Text :
Mathew 9:19-25

Topic :
WILL YOU GIVE UP TO CHALLENGES ❓

Memory verse:
Mathew 9:22

Message :
Life is full of challenges. Some people are sick. Some have family problems some are struggling with educational challenges. Some believers are struggling with Christian race. In fact, it seems that a whole lot of people are struggling with life’s challenges.

The text today focuses on the woman with the issue of blood for thirty – eight years, a disease which defied all kinds of medical and traditional help. She was abandoned by her loved ones and her condition actually got worse as the days went by. However, the woman refused to give up in finding a solution to  her predicament.

One day, she heard that Jesus, the Healer and saviour, was passing by and she against all odds, made her way through the crowd with undying faith that if she touched the Hem of Jesus garment, she will be healed. She refused to give up she pushed on until she achieved her healing. She did not sit back to lament over her condition or condemn herself as others did to her. She searched for an opportunity to be made whole. She found it and not allowing anybody or anything to stop her, she grabbed it.

Do not give up, no matter what you are going through. Tough times do not last but tough people do, No matter what you are going through , just hand them over to Jesus, and He will see you through. Keep living for Jesus and serving Him. You will soon testify of that miracle.

CONTROLLING THOUGHTS :
Don’t give up. Your miracle is already here.

PRAYER:
Oh Lord, give me the grace never to give up. Amen.

HOPE ❗YOU ARE IN GOD’S PLAN❓

DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Wednesday 22nd January, 2020

*TOPIC:*
HOPE❗ YOU ARE IN GOD’S PLAN❓

KEY VERSE:*
“But think on me when it shall be well with thee, and shew kindness, I pray thee.
Unto me, and make mention of me unto Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house”
(Genesis 40:14).

TEXT
Genesis 41:9-12, 34-40

MESSAGE

God has a plan for His own. His plans have already been established right from the foundations of the earth. Every child of God needs to know this and not fret. God is the architect of your destiny and whatever He has planned concerning you will surely come to fruition. Our text today is derived from the Bible after a series of unpleasant events. Joseph, who had been sold by his brothers to the Midianite traders on their way to Egypt, eventually found himself in prison, after he was falsely accused by Potiphar’s wife of wanting to commit adultery with her. However, Joseph still remained in God’s plans.

God had better plans for Joseph even when he was in prison. Both Pharaoh’s butler and cupbearer also in prison, had dreams which no other person could interpret. Eventually, Joseph, who noticed their sad countenances, interpreted their dreams and it marked the beginning of his journey to becoming the Prime Minister of Egypt, the beginning of the unfolding of God’s plan for his life.

Have you ever wondered about the plans of God in your life? Don’t worry, just trust God. His plans for you are good. Remember the Scripture says that He knows the thoughts that he has towards you, thoughts of good and not of evil, to bring you to an expected end (Jer. 29:11). Let nothing move you out of God’s
plan for your life.

CONTROLLING THOUGHTS

The plans of God towards His own are good.

PRAYER

My Lord, may your plans for me come to pass. in Jesus Name. Amen.
