THINK ON THESE THINGS

Text: Philippians 4:8

 *Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.*

There are thoughts you should set your mind on for you to stay healthy in every way possible. This is because your thoughts go a long way in framing your life. For as man a think in his heart, so is he... Proverbs  23:7. 

Apostle Paul in his admonition to the church in Phillipi, gave us a list of things we need to be thinking on.  
Today, we shall be looking at the very first line of thought God would have you set your mind on- *"Whatsoever things are TRUE" 

Somethings in your life may be the FACT but not the TRUTH.

 *Science talks Fact but God speaks TRUTH.* 

At times, you may receive a Doctor's report which based on their findings is the actual fact of what is going on in your body, all the symptoms are there to confirm this fact.
But that is not the truth of God concerning you.

He said, ```Dear friend, I pray that you are doing well in every way and that you are healthy, just as your soul is healthy.``` 3 John 1:2.

Also, he said in Isaiah  53:5 that But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: *the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.* 

So, His truth about you is  that you will enjoy divine health and healing in Him. Think about His truth instead of facts that are damaging.

If you have any unfavourable factual statements/news from anyone, setting your mind on God's truth, will go a long way in  bringing  you deliverance.


BIBLE READING:Phillipians 4:6-9.


 *PRAYER FOCUS* 

1. Lord, I choose to believe your truth against all the lying facts surrounding me. Please, give me Grace to trust you more.

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

WHEN GOD IS SILENT(2)

Text: Matthew 4:1  *Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.*  We saw yesterday that God was not pleased with many israelites that left Egypt for the promised land  (Corinthians 10:5).  A good percentage of the Israelites were overthrown in the wilderness.   Wilderness experience is not what any child of God desires, but it is an experience God sends or allows his children go through. In Deuteronomy 8:2, God says that He *LED* the Isrealites through the wilderness for forty years to humble them, to prove them, and to know what was in their heart whether they would keep his commandments or not.  Our Lord Jesus Christ was also *LED* into the wilderness by the Spirit of the Lord to be tempted by the devil. You will  notice there is a similar feature of the number *40(forty)* between these two wilderness experiences. That is, that of the Israelites and our Lord Jesus Christ. The Israelites spent 40years, Jesu...

GULLIBLE BUT INTELLIGENT

Text : Mat 25:31-32  *When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:*   *And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:*  Have you ever wondered why Jesus compared His followers to sheep and not goats?  Sheep has reputation for being stupid, defenceless and harmless creatures that mope about on hillsides doing not very much. They are good for two things: being eaten and producing wool. According to a study by Keith Kendrick, he said in reality, Sheep are actually surprisingly intelligent, with impressive memory and recognition skills. They build friendships, stick up for one another in fights, and feel sad when their friends are  sent to slaughter. The truth is that sheep are far smarter than we know., All these reasons and more are the basis for Jesus' comparism of His followers with sh...
