TAKE TIME TO NOURISH YOUR SOUL.

 For taking your time to study remain blessed. 

TOPIC: TAKE TIME TO NOURISH YOUR SOUL. August Tuesday 18th

TEXT: Psalm 119:9-11

KEY VERSE: Song of Solomon 2:15 Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines:  for our vines have tender grapes.


Today’s key verse says, “Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines:  for our vines have tender grapes.” Foxes have taken over your vineyard. Nobody is there to care for your vineyard. Little by little, your tender grapes are being spoilt. Your tender, fresh Christian life is being spoilt. Your spiritual peace is now under threat because it is not cared for. You have not shaved your beard for some time and it is disfiguring your face. What happened? You don’t have time. 


You have not cut your fingernails and we can see dirt stuck in it. People are asking, “What happened to this man? Why is he like this?” It is because you don’t have time. Foxes have taken over your life. Little, little foxes, and the tenderness of your Christian life is being destroyed. Anger has now come in. Why not? It is the natural law! Anger came because the soul was not being fed. Lust also came in. They are the foxes. Why will it not come? You are dealing with women around you. What would keep you from lust? 


What kept Peter from sinking in the sea when Jesus bid him to come? It was because his eyes were fixed on Jesus. But when his eyes shifted away from Jesus, what happened to him? It is a natural law. He began to sink. The lust that is coming into your heart is a natural law. It is because you don’t care for your heart. You are not giving the heart what is required to keep it clean. Thy word have I hid in my heart that I might not sin against Thee (Psalm 119:11). Did you take time to put any word there? Did you have the time? When you woke up did you read the Bible? 


Those messages that you used to hear before, are you still listening to them? It is a natural law. When dry season sets into your life, the stones in the river will now be seen, because rains have stopped and the waters have dried up. Your own rain has stopped, that is why the dryness you are feeling now takes over. Little foxes, little foxes, little foxes! You are not strong, but you are still actively working. Even when Saul left the Lord, was he not still king? You are still serving. The gifts of God are without repentance. You are still demonstrating gifts but pride has come in such that even you are surprised. 


Thought for the day: If you love your soul, take care of it. 

Song for the day: In my life, Lord be glorified……

Bible reading for the day: Psalm 109-111; Romans 16

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
