MAJOR IN THE MAJOR

TEXT: Luke 10:42.

“But there’s only one thing you need. Mary has chosen what is better, and it is not to be taken away from her.”

You can be busy without good result. *What counts is not just doing the right thing, but doing the right thing  at the right time.* Activity is not always productivity, and movement is not always progress. 

In the story of Mary and Martha, Martha was occupied with many good tasks, yet she missed the most important moment -  sitting at the feet of Jesus.

Many believers today are overwhelmed with schedules, responsibilities, and even church activities, yet their personal fellowship with God is suffering. 

Jesus did not rebuke Martha for serving; He corrected her for being overwhelmed with it. Service is good, but devotion is better. When you major in what heaven considers minor, you end up exhausted and unfulfilled. 

But when you major in the major, which is God’s presence, His Word, and His voice, every other aspect of life finds alignment.

The “one thing” Jesus spoke about is priority. It is choosing intimacy over interruption, presence over pressure, and purpose over performance. 

 *Life will always present many options, but destiny is fulfilled by choosing what truly matters.* When you sit with Jesus, you gain clarity, wisdom, peace, and direction that no amount of busyness can produce.

Today, evaluate your priorities. Are you doing many things but neglecting the one thing that is needful? Are you too busy to pray, read and study the Bible? Are you too busy to pay attention to the Holy Spirit? 

Remember, what you consistently prioritize shapes your spiritual growth and determines your impact. Choose the better part, it will never be taken from you.

 *BIBLE READING* :

 Luke 10:38-42.

 *PRAYER FOCUS:* 

Ask God for the grace to discern what truly matters. Pray for discipline to prioritize His presence above distractions and for wisdom to align your daily activities with His will.

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...

GULLIBLE BUT INTELLIGENT

Text : Mat 25:31-32  *When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:*   *And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:*  Have you ever wondered why Jesus compared His followers to sheep and not goats?  Sheep has reputation for being stupid, defenceless and harmless creatures that mope about on hillsides doing not very much. They are good for two things: being eaten and producing wool. According to a study by Keith Kendrick, he said in reality, Sheep are actually surprisingly intelligent, with impressive memory and recognition skills. They build friendships, stick up for one another in fights, and feel sad when their friends are  sent to slaughter. The truth is that sheep are far smarter than we know., All these reasons and more are the basis for Jesus' comparism of His followers with sh...
