1 Corinthians 13:1-8

Topic:
WHAT IS YOUR CHOICE FOR LOVE❓

Memory verse:
1 Corinthians 13:8

Message:
We all have people in our lives who are difficult some times. Maybe, it’s someone you work with, a family member, or even your spouse. The Word of God clearly defines love in 1 Corinthians 13. It says that love is patient and kind. It doesn’t seek it’s own way. Love doesn’t keep a record of wrongs. And more importantly, love never fails.

Notice that this chapter doesn’t talk at all about how you feel. God’s love isn’t about feelings. It’s a choice. You can choose to be good to someone even when they don’t deserve it. You can choose to overlook an offense. Remember, the Holy Spirit is our helper. We weren’t meant to do it in our own strength. Ask God to show you how to love others better.

Take good note of these wise words: “The opposite of love is not hate, it is indifference.” The task for us today is to choose to love one another, even the unlovable.

CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
The choice to love is the best of choices.

PRAYER:
Empower me, by Your Spirit, to walk in love no matter what I may face today. Amen.

BIBLE READING FOR THE YEAR:
Genesis 36-38; Romans 12

DO YOU HAVE THE SKILLS FOR SPIRITUAL WARFARE ❓

DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Wednesday 15 January 2020

Text:
Judges 3:1-4; Psalm 18:32-42;

TOPIC:
DO YOU HAVE THE SKILLS FOR SPIRITUAL WARFARE❓

Memory Verse:
Judges 3:2

MESSAGES:
Our text today reveal something quite interesting in our relationship with God. We are told here that in God’s dealings with His children, He once in a while orchestrates circumstances to teach them some lessons.

From where we read, it is revealing that part of the lesson that God has for His people is a lesson on warfare. Why would God want to teach His children warfare? Firstly, God himself is a warrior (Exodus 15:3). So, He would want us His children to be warriors as well.

Secondly, God understands that life on Earth is full of battles. 2 Corinthians 10:3-5, ” for though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh; for the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but might through God to the pulling down of strongholds, casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God: and bringing to captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ”. Warfare skills would therefore, qualify His people for success in life.

A laissez-fair attitude to life would only produce lack and Lamentations and finally regret ( had I known). Now, you know. We must learn to fight the good fight of faith, if we want to lay hold on eternal life. What are some of the things we must be prepared to fight against? We must be prepared to fight: Unforgiveness Unrighteousness, Unbelief, Unproductive-lifestyle Laziness, Lack & Lateness, Church politics, Envy, Divorce, etc. We must resolve to fight against prayerlessness,(as a prayerless Christian is a powerless Christian. ) unfaithfulness, disbelief, etc. Fight against the power of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realm. Ask the Lord today to teach your fingers to fight. 

CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
We are mighty warriors through Christ.

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

WHERE CAN YOU REALLY FIND SAFETY ❓

DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL

TUESDAY 14 JANUARY 2020

Text:
Psalm 91:1-16

TOPIC: WHERE CAN YOU REALLY FIND SAFETY❓

Memory Verse:
Psalm 91:1

Message:
Security is an essential need of humanity. Unfortunately, our generation is faced with insecurity on daily basis. The national dallies and news have it on how lives and property are being lost as a result of insecurity in the nation. Globally, every nation is faced with one act insecurity the other. In Nigeria, the menace put into loss of one partner or both, loss of children and even properties. The list endless. Our uniformed personnel have lost the confidence of her citizens.

In such situation, the Psalmist has an answer where one can find safety. The Psalmist knew that is only in Christ that absolute security is found. Dwelling in the abode of the Most High gives security. The Psalmist says in verse two of our next”…. He alone is my refuge, my place of safety.” There are millions of benefits one receives when one abides in the shelter of the Most High:

📌 God will rescue you from every trap (emphasis added).
📌. He will protect you from deadly diseases.
📌 He will cover you with His feathers and shelter you with His wings.
📌 You will not be afraid of the terrors of the night nor the arrow that flies in the day.
📌. Even when a thousand and ten thousand are dying around you, these evil will not touch you. The list is endless.

The Psalmist knew that his safety is secured in Christ, he said, “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will not fear evil.” Beloved, why not come into God’s shelter where your safety is guaranteed? Be assured of maximum protection throughout this New year and ever

CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
Our safety is guaranteed when we abode in Him.

PRAYER:
O Lord, help me to always abide in Your shelter.

HAVE YOU TRIED ” FORGIVENESS”❓

DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Monday 13 January 2020

Text :
Matthew 7:7 – 12

Topic :
HAVE YOU TRIED “FORGIVENESS”❓

Memory verse:
Matthew 7:7

Message :
Without mincing words, the scriptures are clear about God’s willingness and readiness to attend to our prayers. Our text shows that those who earnestly seek God in prayers should be assured of answers to their requests. But our various experiences appear to be suggesting otherwise. Very often we pray and there are no answers; we fast and yet the results are delayed and we are worried.

Our lesson today is on the place of forgiveness in securing answers to our prayers. It is hereby made clear that part of what could cause delays to the answers to our prayers is unforgiveness. When we hold on to bitterness, grudges, malice and past hurt, the liberty of our spirits are restrained and their capacity to receive answers are blocked. A writer says: “Unforgiveness is a poison that shrivels the heart. It means a person cannot truly live in the present as they’re always thinking about the past.”

Is there an area of your life that you need God’s help in? A lot of times, it is easy to think that we are not supposed to ask for too much, but the scripture encourages us to go to God with all our needs. He longs to give you the desires of your heart and pour out His favour and blessing on you. In fact, the Apostle James said, “You have not because you do not ask” (James 4:2).

And as you pray, please check if there is any Unforgiveness that is blocking your prayers and affecting your relationship with God. The other person may have been wrong, they may have hurt you deeply, but there is nothing on this earth that is worth losing your peace with the Almighty God for. Today, when you pray, choose forgiveness and don’t let anything stand in the way of the good things God has in store for your future.

CONTROLLING THOUGHTS :
When answers to prayers are delayed, try forgiveness.

PRAYER:
Today, in the name of Jesus Christ, I will have my needs met through the power of prayer and forgiveness, Amen.

DO YOU KNOW! GOD VALUES YOU ❓

DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Sunday 12 January 2020

Text :
Psalm 17:1 – 15

Topic :
DO YOU KNOW! GOD VALUES YOU❓

Memory verse:
Psalm 17: 8

Message :
God loves and values you so much today. You are the apple of His eyes; you are His most prized possession. In this day and age, people are considered to be important for so many different reasons, titles, positions, possessions, where you go, what you drive. But God’s value system is very different from the value systems of the world. If you have ever thought that God has too many other important things on His plate to be concerned with than you and your life, you are wrong. Know this today, you are God’s biggest deal. And there is nothing you can do to be more important or less important. God values you today simply because He made you, and your value will never change.

You are significant, your life is significant. The things that concern God. He carefully watches over every detail of your life, and there is nothing too big or small for His attention. You are not inconveniencing God by asking for help in your everyday life. God wants to be good to you. He wants to show you His favour in new ways. He’s saying today, ” I dare you to ask.”

So, go ahead and place a demand on the universe in His name. You will be surprised by His response.

CONTROLLING THOUGHTS :
God is more mindful of us than we can ever imagine.

PRAYER:
Father, thank You for loving me and for making me the apple of Your eye. Amen.
