IN DUE SEASON-2

-
TEXT: Galatians 6:9

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

Yesterday, we considered one of the critical factors that guarantees success in any endeavour in life.  Today, we shall be looking at the second factor.

 *2. Due Season:* Having a strong knowledge and understanding of due season will keep you on the track of consistency and persistency. 

God is the only one who determines your due season. Your own duty is never to give up before the due season. 

Due season talks about the harvest time for reaping what you have sown. Two things will always guarantee you a rewarding and fruitful due season: 

1. *Don't be weary:*  To be weary is to be utterly spiritless, or to be exhausted. Whatever good you are doing or set out to do will demand that you stay strong in Christ Jesus. Apostle Paul told Timothy to be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. (2 Timothy 2:1). *Be strong in Christ and you will never be exhausted.* 

 *2. Don't Faint:*  While weariness and faint can be used interchangeably, faint is the last result of weariness. A long time exhaustion will lead to fainting.

For you not to be wearied and faint, you must learn to wait on the Lord.

But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and *not be weary* ; and they shall walk, and *not faint.*_ (Isaiah  40:31)

Bible Reading: Ecclesiastes 11:1-6

Prayer Focus

1.) Father God,  I receive the grace to wait on you for daily supply of strength.

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
