EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING

TOPIC: REGULAR FAMILY DEVOTION PART 2

TEXT: Ephesians 5:22-30

Key verse: Deuteronomy 6:6 And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:

Marriage was instituted by God and it is honourable. The couple are expected to promote righteousness in their family through regular family devotion and application of the truth learnt to develop their personal spiritual
lives.

Righteousness in marriage involves:
a) Obedience to the laws of marriage Colossians 3:18-19
b) Adultery should not be mentioned or thought of Hebrews 13:4
c) Both spouses should love themselves Colossians 3:13-15
d) Do not suspect each other for unfaithfulness or adultery Titus 1:15

Developing personal spiritual life involves:
a) Studying the Scripture constantly 2 Timothy 2:15
b) Praying all manner of prayers always 1 Thess. 5:15. Pray without ceasing
Ephesians 6:18
c) Morning and possibly evening family devotion Every Word of God for Daily Living should be Stressed.
d) Private quiet-time on daily basis.

Negligence to cooperate in family devotion by one of the spouses will need the support and prayer of the other. When any of the spouse fails, the other spouse should try to talk him or her back to devotion. If it is not working, the spouse should continue with his or her devotion and not cease praying for the backslidden spouse. When the children fail adolescents, the couple should continue in family devotion and pray for their restoration. If your wife does not do her duties as a wife, do what you can do and be at peace, "1Corinthians 7:29".

If the couple are not serious about bringing righteousness into their marriage, the devil would have succeeded in luring either or both of them to hell fire. But if they will keep righteousness in their marriage and also have personal devotional lives, the devil will find it difficult to mess-up your marriage.

Thought for the day: A devoted family is a united family.

Song for the day: We have come to thee o Lord (2x) ... That it might be well with us

Bible reading for the day: 1 Chronicles 17-19; John 10:1-21.

THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THURSDAY 30 DECEMBER THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS TEXT: NUMBERS 14: 26-31  Key verse: Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many  be called, but few chosen. Completion of the angelic message: The Lord continued. “Because of this mandate given to you, I am removing around you the uncircumcised leaders. I am going to fill their place with righteous and holy leaders from various nations and races.” Truly I had pondered if any minister has suffered like this. People I loved, cherished and lived peacefully with suddenly began to speak evil against me to my shock. Well, it happens in politics, but is limited to their countries, whereas mine is international! Yes, some ministers may have suffered these things, but that was before the advent of the Internet, so their sufferings were limited. Maybe through letters or newspapers for a limited time, but my own is in the world of the I...
