DON'T QUIT!

-

 Text:  Galatians  6:9  

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

One major difference between a person who is tagged a failure and one who is tagged a success is tenacity.  While a failure easily gives up, a successful person is tenacious. He never gives up easily.

Any of your good and godly attempts will always yield results if only you don't give up. Just as the common saying goes - Quitters never win and winners never quit, you must trust in God's grace never to quit in well-doing. 

There is always a due season for every seed you put into the ground to germinate. The due season for maize is not the same as an orange. If you compare your harvest period as a bamboo grower with a maize farmer, you will easily quit. A man who is doing well is a man who is holding unto his profession of faith in Christ Jesus even in hard times.

For you to reap in due season, you must leave the camp of quitters, and join the camp of the faithful and the waiters. You must know that patience and faith works hand in hand. Hence, promises can only be inherited through faith and patience. 
 _That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises. Hebrews  6:12_  

As you keep holding on in Faith and in Patience, the Lord will come through for you in Jesus' name. I encourage you to hang on, for the Lord your will surely come through for you. Do not quit and throw in the towel.


Bible Reading: 1 Kings 7:9-16.

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 portraying the nature of God here on earth.  2 Peter  1:

PRAYING MEN

Text : 1Timothy 2:8. I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting. God gave explicit instructions to all of His children as to how we must live our lives. Some of these instructions cut across boards, of which all of God's children must obey. However, there are some instructions that are specific to gender or portfolios. We we'll be looking at some of these instructions today.  *THE MEN* From our text, there are two distinct responsibilities God wants men to undertake, and the two are intertwined. First, God wants men to pray. The word  'men' as used in our text is not generic as to mean all human beings. It is specifically requesting that all men should pray. Yes, God expects every of His children to pray, but He specifically called men out here.  A number of times,  when prayer meetings are called, the proportion of women in attendance always outnumbered men. This is because the devil knows the import of praying men.

BE CALM & LISTEN-3

Text: 1 Kings 19:12 "...and after the earthquake a fire, [but] the LORD [was] not in the fire; and after the fire a still small voice" Prophet Elijah fled after he received the life threatening message from Jezebel, the wife of King Ahab, because he didn't keep himself calm before the Lord.  *Endeavouring to listen to God in difficult times is a major prerequisite to your deliverance.*  Are you faced with a life threatening situation like Prophet Elijah, the first and most important thing you need to do is: "Set yourself before the Lord for His still small voice."  *"You will be saved from many unwarranted troubles if only you will always maintain your calm before the Lord and listen to Him."*  After Prophet Elijah heard the still small voice, then the Lord asked him, "What are you doing here?" This question shows that Prophet Elijah had left his rightful location and God-given assignment.  The windstorm he saw, revealed that he has been blow
