ARE YOU DISCOURAGED ❓ YOU MIGHT BE CLOSER TO YOUR GOAL ❗

2 Timothy 4:6-8

Topic:
ARE YOU DISCOURAGED❓YOU MIGHT BE CLOSER TO YOUR GOAL❗

Memory verse: 
2 Timothy 4:7

Message:
Very often in life we are not rewarded because of things we started but on the account of the things we accomplished. No one has ever been awarded a trophy for starting a race. Rather, people receive trophies for being the first to cross the rubicon or touch the ribbon. The point of today’s message is that we should not allow any circumstances to discourage or stop us from reaching the goals we are set out to attain. We should rather learn to press harder and keep pushing ourselves further towards fulfilling our destinies.

The story of the case between Mr. Philip Reis and Alexander Graham Bell drives home this point. It was said that it was Mr. Philip Reis that practically built telephone. But it so happened that what Mr. Reis built could only produce musical tones but failed to transmit speech telegraphically. He got frustrated and abandoned the work. A few years later, Mr. Bell while studying the project discovered Mr. Ries error; he only needed to adjust one little screw, and he did the adjustment. Consequently, he got credited for the invention of the telephone. Ries took Graham to court but the supreme Court ruled the matter in favour of Alexander Graham Bell.

It is axiomatic that many people fail in life because they did not know how close they were to success when they gave up. Let it not be said you almost won. A little adjustment of a life screw can give you the success you have long desired. Don’t stop almost there.

The concluding part of the race may become tougher and weary but please always encourage yourself with these words, “I won’t stop until I have it.”


CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
Finishing well should be our utmost concern

PRAYER:
Lord, help me to be a good finisher. Amen.

DO YOU KNOW ❗ IT WILL SURELY END IN PRAISE ❓

Psalms 126:1-3
Proverbs 23:17-19

Topic:
DO YOU KNOW ❗IT WILL SURELY END IN PRAISE❓

Memory verse:
Psalms 126:3, Proverbs 23:18

Message:
Jerusalem was a city once known for her strong security and impregnability during the Bible days. The inhabitants never believed that a day shall come when their city will be conquered. However, it happened. Jerusalem fell woefully into the hands of the enemy and was conquered. Eventually, the Lord redeemed it, to His glory.

What are you passing through in life? There might be things that have happened in your life you never believed they could happen. You never envisaged those bad events that have terribly affected you. You never thought you will find yourself in the situations you are in right now. Yet they happened. Cheer up! These are just the realities of life.

Unfortunately, some Christians believe that coming to Christ means a trouble free -life. Brethren, we didn’t come to Christ so that we won’t have troubles. However, one thing is sure, troubles won’t have us because we have Christ. We are already Christ’s property and thus troubles will not over whelm us.

God has not promised us smooth voyage but safe landing. The presence of Christ in the boat doesn’t mean there won’t be storms of life. However, he will take you safely ashore.

What you are going through right now will end up in praise and uncommon testimonies. Child of God, no matter what is happening right now in your life, despite the report and what the devil is saying, be assured that what you are going through right now will not kill you. Gear up. Keep living a righteous life, keep serving Jesus and your miracle will surely come. Everything will end in praise!

NB: Proverbs 23:18 says surely It must come to an END, and the expectations of the RIGHTEOUS will not be cut off

CONTROLLING THOUGHT:
God will deliver us from our troubles.

PRAYER:
Lord help me to hold on to you until the storm is over. Amen.

DO YOU KNOW ❗MOST TROUBLES ARE DIVINE CONNECTED ❓

DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Friday 24 July 2020

Text:
Jonah 1

TOPIC:
DO YOU KNOW ❗ MOST TROUBLES ARE DIVINE CONNECTED❓

MEMORY VERSE:
Jonah 1:4

Message:
Not every trouble we go through in life is demonic or satanic as most people believe. We have a good God that loves to give good gifts to His people. But sometimes, He allows some level of troubles come our way to help navigate our way to our appointed place in destiny or perhaps to bring us back to divine order.

From our opening scripture, we see Jonah running away from divine assignment. The Bible declares that the Lord sent out a great wind into the sea and there was mighty tempest, speaking of God’s sovereignty over His creation. Child of God, running away from divine Instructions or Responsibility Attracts Troubles. We are too quick to allege every trouble we face as satanic. Ask yourself today: what I am going through is it truly satanic in origin or divinely allowed? Zacharias was made dumb because he tried to distort divine program through his doubt (Luke 1:18-20). Thus we attract divine troubles when we try to distort divine program.

Sometimes too, the troubles we go through are not because we have done any bad or that we are out of God’s Will, rather they are necessary bends, valleys and hill tops we must go through in order to be thoroughly prepared for the assignment God has for us. In that case God protects and provides us with the comforts with which we shall comfort others. Whichever is your present experience, please be assured that God does not act wickedly.

CONTROLLING THOUGHT:
Our momentary troubles serve to lead us back on track or prepare us for the future.

PRAYER:
Father, grant me the grace to come out of my troubles with testimonies. Amen.

DO YOU HAVE A SPIRITUAL TRACK RECORD ❓

DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Thursday 23 July 2020

Text:
1Samuel 17:31-37

TOPIC:
DO YOU HAVE A SPIRITUAL TRACK RECORD❓

MEMORY VERSE:
1 Samuel 17:33

Message:
A track record is a detailed account of one’s dealings in a particular sphere of life. It is clear documented history of a person’s life. A spiritual tract record will therefore imply a compendium of one’s impact and contributions in matters relating to life beyond this realm. Most people want to enter into realms of the miraculous yet they do not have a track record of consistent prayer life, discipline, diligence, holy living, faithfulness, studying of the word, submission and the likes.

The truth remains that GREATNESS can never happen to a man who ignores the power of track records. As a CHILD of God, anointing is not the only prerequisite for people to believe in you, someone in your history must be able to testify of the hand of God upon your life that has been sustained. People’s loyalty to you is not just because of the power or influence you command but the evidence of track records in your life working regularly. This also applies in other spheres of life. With power of track records, even with your failures, you will still succeed. People can easily trust you when you have a track record.

When David appeared before King Saul, he said to David, Goliath has a track record of being a warrior from his youth. David immediately reminded Saul about his own track records of killing both a bear and a lion and posited that Goliath will be like one of them. Track records create confidence and boost morale.

The question today is: do you have a spiritual track record?
Can people draw strength from the account of your dealings with God?
Do you have Spiritual Encounters that will serve as object lessons for the next generation?
If another Bible were to be written in your generation, what will be said about you?
The time to make impact is now.

CONTROLLING THOUGHT:
Positive track records create room for credibility and commendation.

PRAYER:
Father, help me to maintain worthwhile track records. Amen.

DO YOU KNOW❗ GOD HAS PLANS FOR YOU ❓

Jeremiah 29:10-14

Topic:
DO YOU KNOW ❗GOD HAS PLANS FOR YOU❓

Memory verse: 
Jeremiah 29:11

Message
Beloved, God has plans for you, great plans. It does not matter what tough situations you are currently going through, GOD has great plans for your life. Please, bring yourself to his conviction this morning. God has completely fashioned out your life for the very best.

If we Juxtapose our key verse above with the situation of the Israelites at the time, everything would simply not make sense. Israel was to be taken into captivity for seventy years. They were to be exiles and slaves at far away Babylon. Yet, God was telling them, “I know the plans I have for you…” despite all that. At no time has the Lord promised His people problem – free – life. Rather, He has assured that when they “Walk through the fire, He would be there with them!”

Please stop worrying over your current ugly situations! GOD is telling you that He has “Plans for welfare (good things) not for calamity to give you a future and a hope.” Whatever the problem is, however bad it appears, God stll has a better plan. He cannot ignore you to perish there. He is planning something good and marvelous for you. Rest assured, there is a great future ahead of you Hope for the best. Expect the best! For, there is no wickedness in God!

CONTROLLING THOUGHT:
GOD has great plans for your life.

PRAYER:
Father, help me to trust and understand that You have great plans for my life irrespective of whatever I am passing through. Amen.

WHY NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY ❓

DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Tuesday 21 July 2020

Text:
1 Samuel 15:7-16

TOPIC:
WHY NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY❓

MEMORY VERSE:
1Sam. 15:3

Message:
We live in times where and when people blame everyone else for what is happening in their lives. From the leaders to the led, parents to children, government to the masses, school teachers to the pupils, pastors to the congregations, and vice versa. Many people no longer take responsibility for their own actions or inactions.

When their plans turn out as planned, they are so happy to announce, “we made it” However, when things turn out not as planned, the language changes. We tend to blame everyone and everything but ourselves when we fail to meet up without responsibilities. We are more interested in passing the blame to other person.

In our text, God expressly told king Saul what to do. God said to him, “Go to Amalek and utterly destroy everything and everyone….” The instructions to Saul the leader was unequivocal and clear. But what did saul do? He spared Agag the king of Amalek. He spared some livestock so as to “sacrifice” unto the Lord. And when confronted, he quickly pointed accusing fingers at the people. He didn’t want to take responsibility. He failed in his duties as a leader. It takes humility to admit our mistake. King Saul is a type of some present leaders, who blame others for their own failures rather than accept and correct their mistakes.

Leaders, whether in the family,  church or society at general, should learn to accept responsibilities. Blaming people, witches and wizards for our failures will not do us any good. Let us learn from the mistakes of king Saul today not to allow ourselves to be pushed off the track on our assignments. Let us take responsibilities as leaders and guide our followers aright.


CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
Trading blames does not bring profit, accepting responsibilities does.

PRAYER:
Lord, help me to accept my mistakes and take responsibility for my actions. Amen.

PLEASE DON’T GIVE UP❗

DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Monday 20 July, 2020

Text:
Hebrew 12:1-4; Job 34:1; Luke 12:7; Hebrews 4:13

Topic:
PLEASE DON’T GIVE UP❗

Memory verse: 
Hebrew 12:1

Message:
Often times, we face various life situations that push us to the point of attempting to give up and throw in the towel. It may be a health issue, a broken relationship, financial problems or depression. If you have found yourself at that point today, there is a word of encouragement for you. Hebrews 12 gives you a powerful reason to keep on keeping on.

Our text reveals that we have an audience, a heavenly audience that is watching and cheering us. God is the first member of this watching host. As Job says, “He Sees everything I do and every step I take. And Jesus tells us in Luke that, “Even every hair on your head has been counted”. God does not want you to fail and will not allow you to fail. Don’t yield to that temptation because God is watching. In one of our texts, the Bible declares, “And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him with whom we must give account.”

Moreover, the Heavenly audience is also made up of saints of old, people like Abraham, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, Job, Hannah, and so on. Men and Women of faith who passed through the various hills and valleys of life and came out triumphant. If you can listen well, you will hear them saying, “If we made it, you too can make it.” Some of them went through much worse circumstances than you are going through now and yet they never gave up. They are watching to see how well you are enduring. When you feel like giving up, remember the people who have gone before you and are offering you encouragement through their life stories of faith.

CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
A reflection on the life of men and women of faith energizes our hearts and offers us the courage and wisdom to move on with our faith life.

PRAYER:
Lord, help me to be continually encouraged by the testimonies of the saints who had gone before me.

WHY NOT AVOID VENGEANCE ❓

DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Saturday 18 July, 2020

Text:
Deut. 32:35; Proverbs 25:21-22

Topic:
WHY NOT AVOID VENGEANCE❓

Memory verse:
Romans 12:19

Message:
There’s no way one will conceive VENGEANCE without contemplating EVIL. And to contemplate evil, one must COMPULSORILY move outside the realms of “LIGHT”, in order to pally with “DARKNESS” in the darkness. Regardless of the duration of one’s stay in the “dark regions” in such season to cogitate on or cook up a vengeance plan, and execute the same, what it literally means is that such a person had willingly surrendered or brought himself or herself under the domain and dominion of darkness. it’s more like the person is saying to the powers of darkness, “Here I am, use me; I lend myself to you as a willing instrument of evil, use me for your evil purpose”.

It’s impossible to throw mud, which one scooped with his or her bare hands, without getting one’s hand dirtied. The same way, it’s impossible to conceive vengeance without partnering with darkness.

Through when some people get to execute the vengeance they conceived, they may feel that justice has been served. But the question is: on whose law was such justice based- God’s, Satan’s, or men? Of course, it’s not God’s law. God clearly states that vengeance belongs to Him (Deut. 32:35). So, it must either be man’s or Satan’s law. And whether it is Satan’s or of men, it’s surely a faulty law. The very perfection of both entities makes it practically impossible for whatever law they promulgate against God’s clear edict to be faultless. And any justice that is premised on a faulty law is no justice at all; “An unjust law”, as Saint Augustine rightly observed, “is no law at all.”

In other words, in sight of God, vengeance is nothing but anarchy, in spite of what names human tag it. Whosoever conceives and executes vengeance lives the life of a rebel against his or her creator. Before God, evil is evil, be it committed as an offense or as a vengeance. And as the Scriptures says, “Though hand join in hand, the wicked will not go unpunished” (Proverbs 11:21). God will not hold the guilty guiltless. Avoid vengeance!


CONTROLLING THOUGHT:
He alone, that created both light and darkness, is the only One qualified to take vengeance; for He created us all. Avoid vengeance.

PRAYER:
Lord, grant me a heart that forgives rather than seek vengeance. Amen.

DO YOU KNOW ❗ GOD’S WORD IS YES AND AMEN❓

DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Friday 17th July, 2020

Text:
2Corinthians 6:16-18

Topic:
DO YOU KNOW❗ GOD’S WORD IS YES AND AMEN❓

Memory verse:
1Corinthians 3:16

Message:
Naturally, when an infinite mind tries to communicate something to a finite mind, what is being communicated may seem to the latter like an illusory, a mirage. Yes, in spite of how priceless the subject of communication, it might just end up being viewed like a typical work of an illusionist- whose original intent is not necessarily to communicate anything of substance, but just to make a stunning impression on the mind of the observer. Hence, they refer to such stunts as “The more you look, the less you see”.

But God is NOT AN ILLUSIONIST. He says what He means and means what He says.

In our text today, God refers to us, the saints, as His temple. The whole idea is simply to convey to us the understanding that we are unique. God Himself resides in us. And He expresses Himself through us. Put differently, we’re meant to be the most brilliant expression of God’s invisibility.

To the natural mind, it will seem so elusive, yet, the reality is that God meant every word of it. We are His temple; He resides in us; and He manifests Himself through us. It is therefore necessary that we see ourselves that way, and equally behave accordingly- and live as those whose lives are the dwelling place of the Spirit of the Holy One and the God of limitless possibilities.

CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
Insist on being ALL that God says about you; He meant EVERYTHING He says about you.

PRAYER:
Lord, help me to believe and behave according to all that You have said about me. Amen.

HOW PRAYERFUL ARE YOU ❓

DOUBLE DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL.

Thursday 16th July 2020

Text :
DANIEL 9:10 – 11

Topic :
HOW PRAYERFUL ARE YOU❓

Memory verse:
1 Thessa. 5:17

Message:
As Fire exists by Burning, Aquarium by Water, Believers in Christ exist by Prayer. Prayer is the believer’s sources of spiritual Strength and Energy. Prayer is indeed the engine room of the believer, both physically and spiritually. A prayerless  Christian is a baseless Christian. In fact, he is a powerless Christian too.

Worst still, there are people who see Prayer as a business venture. They commercialize prayer and make merchandise of the grace of God. Child of God, Prayer should be a habit as it was for the saints of old. Remember that the saints of old who made prayer a habit reaped bountifully its fruits. Their prayer life was the attraction point of God’s answers.

We read of Daniel praying three times a day, “AS HE DID AFORETIME.” His was a life of prayer. He did not just wake up to pray because there was a challenge. The Bible says, “Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, …. He kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, AS HE DID AFORETIME” (Dan. 6:10). It must be emphasized that prayer is not a last option for the believer.

Unfortunately, many people resort to prayer as the last option. Let us imbibe the habit of prayer. Let us not treat prayer as a magic wand. The power of habitual prayer cannot be overemphasized as it was evidenced in the mighty deliverance which God granted Daniel in the lions’ Den.


CONTROLLING THOUGHTS:
Prayer should be our Steering Wheel and not our Spare Tyre.

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