TAKE NO THOUGHT 2


Text :Mathew 6:34

Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

Each day has its own evil(worries), so when you are anxious about tomorrow's evil, you are drawing the evil of the future into today, thereby giving yourself double load of worries(evil) for a day.

No man is capable of bearing today's evil(worries), needless to talk of adding tomorrow's. This is the reason Jesus is asking you to come and lay your burdens and worries at His feet. (Mathew 11:28). He also taught us to ask the Father to deliver us from evil. I realised this is a very important prayer that must be said on daily basis in a very serious manner. 

The enemy daily throws several assaults at you so that you can loose your focus on God. Hence, it is wisdom for you to always ensure that you heartily pray before you step out of your house that the Lord deliver you from evil.

For you to be delivered from the rat race this world system has initiated  for many, you must learn another major lesson from the Lord's Prayer: *Give us our daily bread.* No matter how hard some preachers try to twist this verse  the truth is that Jesus meant exactly what He said. Only a man who is dependent on the Lord will ever take this prayer serious. It is simply a request of a man who is poor in the spirit. It is a prayer that keeps you in a Mother-child relationship with the Lord. It is like a 5months old baby in the hands of his mother. This child would always wake up to receive supply for the day from his mother-atleast for the time he ramains a baby. The baby does not need a store house to keep 10days meal. The baby simply  wakes up daily to look unto the mother for the day's fresh milk. 

Though God wants you to grow in understanding, but He wants us to remain a child in dependency and love. 1Cor. 14:20

No matter how much you have in savings or reserves, God would still have you ask for your daily bread from Him. This bread includes all kinds of provisions that transcends  the physical and material The bread is both physical and spiritual. So you need  both from Him daily. There are some who have provided bread for themselves but they wake up from bed only to realise there is no mouth(life or heath) to eat the bread. The prayer to the heavenly father to supply daily bread ensures that you are also provided with healthy mouth (life)to eat what He provides for each day.

 As you live before the Lord in a Mother- child relationship, you will realise that you are being delivered from the bracket of those who take thoughts for tomorrow.


Bible Reading: Mathew 6:24-34.


 *Prayer point* 

1. Father help me to always lean on you and trust in you for the supply of my daily bread.

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 ...

HIS VOICE- 2

Text : John 10:3. To him the porter opens; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out. We established yesterday that one thing you can't joke with as a true follower of Christ is *His Voice.* You must recognise and hearken to (obey) His voice. It is in doing this that your safety is assured.  Today, we want to see another responsibility of the Shepherd over His sheep.  To him the porter opens; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calls his own sheep by name, *and leads them out.* John 10:3.  He called you, that He might lead you. It is not enough for you to hear or recognise His Voice, you must allow Him to lead you as well.  Romans 8:14 says *For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.*   The Spirit leading you determines the family you belong to. Basically,  there are only two families in this world - the family of God, and the family of satan. In other words, we can say the Kingdom...
