The Fruits Of The Lips Of A True And Holy Minister 

Wednesday 10 September

TEXT: Colossians 4:6  

Key verse: Hebrews 13:15 By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.
The words that come out of him; the words that he speaks, are clean words. ‘He that loves pureness of heart for the fruits of his lips the king shall be his friend.’ When you speak, they see pureness of heart and holiness of life in you. The person that you are relating with will see holiness in you. ‘Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father which is in heaven. These are fruits that shows that you are true and holy. Your words are true and can be verified; ten years to come they will not change. Do not say something in the morning and something else by afternoon… “I did not say so. You did not hear me well.” 
The words that come out of your mouth should have grace. Do not speak words that tear people apart. Do not threaten your members that you will deal with them. The bible says forbear threatening. Do not speak like that. It does not mean you will not give warning; of course, there is warning. ‘Stop that because if you keep doing that it will give you a problem.’ That is a sound warning devoid of carnal threatening. You are required to give warning but when you speak in the flesh, “I will deal with you, I will show you,” that is the flesh at work. Jesus warned about hell but He did not threaten people. As a godly minister, carefully choose acceptable words before you speak to show the type of man or woman you are. 
What should come out of our lips? Praises, thanksgiving and worship of the living God. Speak edifying words during conversations; even appreciative words for one another … “Oh brother or sister, you have done well. Thank God for using you." These are fruits, the words of our lips. This is how you should live your life as a minister because you have learned it from a true and holy ministry. Go and be a true and holy minister producing fruits to confirm your state. 

Thought for the day: Carefully choose acceptable words before you speak 

Song for the day: My life time, I will give God my life time

Bible reading for the day: Daniel 1-3

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE Daily Devotional EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING  _BY_ *PASTOR PAUL RIKA*  Int'l Director        (Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide) THURSDAY NOVEMBER 1 , 2018  _TOPIC:_    *YOU WILL SUCCEED AS CHRIST DID BY PRAYER*           TEXT: John 16: 23-24. KEY VERSE: It came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said, Lord, teach us how to pray as John taught his disciples. Luke 11: 1. When Jesus Christ came to us in the flesh, He went into the business of prayer because He was promoting the attribute of God as a prayer-answering God. He would not render that attribute idle or redundant. Nobody knew how John did it, but Jesus reveals here that the success you saw in the ministry of John the Baptist, the victory you saw in his ministry, is because he was a prayer man. John so much valued prayer. He saw the essentials of pr...
