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 portray...

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...
