ELEVENTH HOUR

Text :  Matthew 20:6

And about the eleventh hour he went out and saw others doing nothing; and he says to them, Why are you here all the day doing nothing?

Jesus spoke on different occasions about how you can receive eleventh hour miracles if you so positioned yourself.

Out of the twenty four hours in a day, Jesus  expects us to work for twelve hours figuratively speaking. _Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world._ (John 11:9). *Work is to be done during your day time, by the time your night comes, you will have no strength to work again.* 

So, in Matthew 20, Jesus told us about those that were employed to work for a full day's wage. They were to work from 6am to 6pm. Some  started the work at exactly 6am. Some were called in by 9am, some by 12 noon and some by 3pm.

When it was 5pm, the employer discovered  some workers whom he employed, Invariably, had only worked for one hour before the day was over.

When it was time to receive payment, those who came in at the eleventh hour got the same wages as those who had worked the full day. They received the eleventh hour mercy.

The thief at the right hand of Jesus received the eleventh hour miracle, he said the right thing just few hours to his death and he entered into paradise. (Luke 23:43),

With only few hours to enter into 2024, you too can receive your eleventh hour miracle if only you will do these two things :

1.) *Have a personal encounter with Jesus.* It's not too late to offload your burdens on Him. He is more than able to take care of all your worries. 

2.) Say the right thing.  Don't complain,  don't murmur, just acknowledge Him as Lord and hand over all your cares snd burdens unto Him. 

Bible Reading:

Matthew 20:1-16.

PRAYER FOCUS

1.) Father God, please give me wisdom to cast all my cares and burdens unto you.

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...
