IN DUE SEASON

-
TEXT: Galatians 6:9

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

Do you feel like giving up on yourself or a project because you have tried many  times without success? You are not the only person, neither are you going to be the last person in this kind of situation. Most of the successful people you know today, have experienced same at some points in their lives.

The only difference between those that are termed successful and unsuccessful  is simply in their tenacity. *While the successful people became successful because they never gave up, the others failed because they gave up.* 

The successful people are those who  never gave up. This is because they have understood what the Bible calls "due season."

The bible says, to everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven:(Ecclesiastes 3:1). To be a success in anything you are doing, you must know and do few things:

1. The power of consistency and persistency.

Many people are good starters without good endings. This is because they do not have the spirit of consistency and tenacity. Such people open shop today, tomorrow they are closed. 

While consistency speaks of continuity and regularity, persistency speaks of endurance and tenacity. To be a success, you must both be consistent and persistent in whatever you do.

You must keep at whatever you are doing, and never give up in the face of challenges. That's why  
Ecclesiastes 9:10 says that whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might...

The small seed in your hand today, will surely grow and become a big tree; if only you will sow it, and you water it consistently and persistently.

Bible Reading: Ecclesiastes 11:1-6

Prayer Focus

1.) Father God,  I receive the grace to be consistent and persistent in all of my endeavours.

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
