DEEPER LIFE

Text :  Psalms 42:1. 

As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God.

The desperate need of this generation is not for a greater number of intelligent people, or gifted people, but for deep people. There are too many shallow people in our world today. 

Deep down within you, you desire a deeper and fuller living. Inwardly, there's a crave to delve into a deeper life in God,  the only obstacle is How?

Psalms 42:7 says *Deep calls unto deep at the noise of your waterspouts: all your waves and your billows are gone over me.* 

It takes someone with depth to crave for more depth, a shallow man has no desire for depth in any way.

To go deeper with God, you need a holy dissatisfaction with where you're at the moment. You can't feed a full man. In the same way, God can't do anything with a man who has no need of Him and for Him.

A man who is full of himself before God is the biggest fool of all times.

Matthew 5:3 says Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. The kingdom of God belongs only to those who know they have great need of God.

The first step to going deeper in God is to have a hunger and thirst for Him.

Ask God to empty you of every junks that have quenched your appetite for Him.

Bible  Reading :

Psalms 42:1-11

PRAYER FOCUS

1.) Father God, please empty me of every junks that I have gathered over the years that has reduced my appetite for you and your kingdom.

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...

WAY MAKER-2

Text: Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing: now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it?  I will even make a way in the wilderness,  and rivers in the desert. God promised that He will do a new thing for you, and that He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He has done this before, and He will do it again even in your own life.  When the children of Israel left Egypt, the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them, encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.(Exodus 14:9). Just like anyone would react, the Isrealites became so fearful because there is neither way forward nor back for them to escape. Before them was the red sea, behind them were the Egyptian armies. They became perplexed and began to murmur against Moses. It is possible you are also in a situation like the Israelites- No way forward, and no way behind. Things may appear like you are ...

BEWARE OF DOGS

Text :  Philippians 3:2. Beware of the dogs! Beware of the evil workers! Beware of the mutilators! Usually, when you see the inscription "BEWARE OF DOGS", you instantly know there's a wild or trained dog around the corner, hence, the need to beware.  However, when God says 'Beware of dogs,' He wasn't actually referring to dogs as in 'animals' but to animals in human skin. Note that this caution was given to believers against other so-called  believers.  That is, some people within the church that we refer to as brothers and sisters are actually operating in the capacity of dogs.Though fellow worshippers in the church are called brothers and sisters, but if they behave like wild animals, know that they are dogs in humans skin- BEWARE. Matthew  7:6 says *Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.*  Essentially, dogs don't have capacity to r...
