KINDNESS

Text : 1 Corinthians 13:4. 

Love is always patient; love is always kind; love is never envious or arrogant with pride. Nor is she conceited.

 *Kindness,  just like love is a language understood by all.* Everyone knows what it means to be shown Kindness,  and everyone wants to receive Kindness. 
But the question is, how often do you show kindness to others?

Our text says, love is always kind. That is, if the seed of kindness is in you, it will constantly produce the fruit of Kindness. There will be no time that people will come around you and will not perceive the aroma of Kindness  oozing out of you continously. 

You are expected to be kind to people not because they are kind to you but because of your kind nature.

God is kind, and if you are His child, His DNA should run in you, and this should make you show kindness to people effortlessly. 

Now, it's important to note that you don't need to have a very fat bank account to be kind to people. 
Just a simple act of greeting,  smiling, complimenting people and offering to help in your own little way can go a long way in making someone's day or even saving someone's life.

What you sow is what you reap. Be intentional in sowing  seed of kindness into the lives of people around you. And you will reap it immeasurably.  The truth is, your children will also reap the benefits of your act of kindness later in the future.

You are an extention of God on earth, show people the love of God by being kind to them INTENTIONALLY.

Bible  Reading: Ephesians 4:22-32.


PRAYER FOCUS

1.) Father God, give me the grace to bring forth the fruit of kindness that all around me may see your glory in me.

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...
