TRUST NOT IN MAN 2

-
 Text : Jeremiah 17:7 
 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is.

 _A cursed man is one that trust in man, and make flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD. Jeremiah 17:5._ One major reason we suffer many pains and dissapointments is because of TRUST misplacement. When you place your trust in man, you are bound to be disappointed. 

_A blessed man on the other hand is one who  trust in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is. Jeremiah 17:7_ 
When you start exercising your trust in God, you will have the following experience:

 1. He shall be as a tree planted by the waters: A man whose delight is in the law of the LORD; and who   meditate in His law day and night shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water. Such shall  bring forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. Psalm 1:1-3

 2. He shall spread out her roots by the river. Anyone who trusts in the Lord shall always have abundant supply of resources from the beneath. God will command earthly resources towards such person. 

 3.He shall not see when heat cometh. because he can access supply of water in due season. When you trust in the Lord, you shall not experience heat and dryness. 

 4. Her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought. Green leaf signifies flourishing. Psalm 92:12. Trusting in God will cause you to flourish in all that you do.

 5. He shall not  cease from yielding fruit Trusting in God uarantees continuous fruitfulness.

As you trust the Lord,  barrenness and unfruitfulness shall be far  away from you. Even if your present situation appears hopeless, just keep your trust in the Lord, your story shall turn around in Jesus name.

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
