SHUT THAT LION'S MOUTH

Text : By faith these people......shut the mouths of lions.

King Darius called out to Daniel to know if his God has been able to deliver him from the lions. This call shows that king Darius :

1. Had a quantum belief in Daniel's God. 

2. had a question for the God of Daniel if He can truly deliver.

“O Daniel, servant of the living God, _has your God, whom you serve continually, been able to deliver you from the lions?_ ” Daniel 6:20

 *Trying times always present you the opportunity and platform to prove God's power* 

 *When you stand for God in trying times, you will realise that he is truly God of all possibilities* 

Daniel, not minding to be thrown into the den of lions refused to offer petitions to King Darius except to the God of heaven and earth. (Daniel 6:7). By this singular act of faith, Daniel was able to shut the mouth of lions in the Den. 

*Until you take a step in Faith to defend your total and uncompromising belief in God, you will not experience God's intervention.* 

Daniel replied the king as follow:

 _My God hath sent his angel, and hath shut the lions' mouths, that they have not hurt me....._ .(Daniel 6:22)

God sent His Angel to shut the mouths of the lions, simply because Daniel had the Faith to believe in Him for such. Hence, you can safely say that by Faith Daniel shut the mouth of lions. This is because of his unwavering Faith in God. There wouldn't have been such record of great exploit if Daniel had succumbed to the evil plot of the then presidents and princes.(Dan.6:3~8). 

*God will always show up on behalf of those who RISK their ALL for Him. Though RISKING it ALL for God is no RISK at all.* 

Are you feeling like giving up to the temptation?

Are you feeling like chickening in and throwing in the towel,?

Are you being overwhelmed during your trying moments?

I want to assure you that God's grace is much more available to uphold you and go shut the mouths of every roaring lions in your life.

As you stand for God today, you can be rest assured that God will also come true for you, just as He did for Daniel.

Bible Reading : Daniel 6:1-28.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

WAY MAKER-2

Text: Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing: now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it?  I will even make a way in the wilderness,  and rivers in the desert. God promised that He will do a new thing for you, and that He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He has done this before, and He will do it again even in your own life.  When the children of Israel left Egypt, the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them, encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.(Exodus 14:9). Just like anyone would react, the Isrealites became so fearful because there is neither way forward nor back for them to escape. Before them was the red sea, behind them were the Egyptian armies. They became perplexed and began to murmur against Moses. It is possible you are also in a situation like the Israelites- No way forward, and no way behind. Things may appear like you are ...

BEWARE OF DOGS

Text :  Philippians 3:2. Beware of the dogs! Beware of the evil workers! Beware of the mutilators! Usually, when you see the inscription "BEWARE OF DOGS", you instantly know there's a wild or trained dog around the corner, hence, the need to beware.  However, when God says 'Beware of dogs,' He wasn't actually referring to dogs as in 'animals' but to animals in human skin. Note that this caution was given to believers against other so-called  believers.  That is, some people within the church that we refer to as brothers and sisters are actually operating in the capacity of dogs.Though fellow worshippers in the church are called brothers and sisters, but if they behave like wild animals, know that they are dogs in humans skin- BEWARE. Matthew  7:6 says *Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.*  Essentially, dogs don't have capacity to r...
