Dunamis seed of destiny

  ACCESSING GOD’S WAYS BY STUDYING HIS WORD   March 26, 2023   •     Seeds of Destiny SCRIPTURE: Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine. 1Timothy 4:13 THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: The habitual study of the Word is an attribute of greatness. It has been established that the Word of God is the builder of life and destiny. Your destiny is not in view when the Word is out of place in your life. To neglect the Word is to forfeit your destiny. This means, the diligent study of the Word is necessary for the fulfilment of destiny (2 Timothy 2:15, John 5:39). Now, what does it mean to study the Word of God? To study the Word of God is to access the ways, thoughts, principles and precepts of God from His Book in order to walk better with Him on earth. When you study God’s Word, you are trying to know what He likes, how He thinks, what His principles are, what you are allowed to do, what you are forbidden from doing, etc. This is what studying the Wor...

DCLM Daily Manna 27 November 2022 Devotional by Pastor W. F. Kumuyi — Don’t Turn Him Away!


TOPIC: Don’t Turn Him Away! (DCLM Daily Manna 27 November 2022)

TEXT: Luke 5:1-10 (KJV)

1 And it came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret,

2 And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets.

3 And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon’s, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship.

4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.

5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.

6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake.

7 And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink.

8 When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord.

9 For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the draught of the fishes which they had taken:

10 And so was also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch men.

KEY VERSE: “And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon’s, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship” (Luke 5:3).

DCLM Daily Manna For Today MESSAGE:


God has always needed humans to carry out His mission on earth. This does not mean that He cannot carry out His mission without the instrumentality of humans. In His wisdom, He has designed to get us involved. We are God’s creations and the vehicle for the advancement of His course on earth. However, in His choice of who to use, He never compels. He gives the privilege and leaves us with the choice of being willing to be used.


Jesus, in our text, needed a platform from which He would preach to the multitudes at the seashore. There were many boats around but He chose to approach that of Simon. Observe that He did not compel him to use his boat but simply “prayed him.” Had Peter turned Him away, He would have gone elsewhere. But thank God, he obliged Him. Jesus did not use and abandon Peter. He knew how he had toiled all night and had failed. He gave him the miracle of a great catch.

Overwhelmed by the blessing of a single moment of service and consecration, Peter took a wise decision for a lifetime of service and commitment. He saw the initial blessing as a tip of the iceberg. If he had given to the Lord a moment of service and gotten such a huge return, what would a lifetime of surrender bring him?

Today, the Lord is in search of ‘boats’ He can use. There are many people out there He needs to reach, to teach and to bless. Will you lend Him your ‘boat’ – your life, talent, house and other possessions? Are you willing to allow Him take your time and use you to reach people? Give all your best to the Master.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
Let the Lord use you to reach the world.

Francis Agbo's Daily Devotional December 28, 2022 Title: God will silence them!

 Francis Agbo's Daily Devotional December 28, 2022 Title: God will silence them! Text: Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings, hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger. - Psalm 8:2 KJV   When a coalition of enemy nations conspired to fight Jehoshaphat, all he did was open His mouth to praise God and God silenced the enemy. Praise is a force that makes you unstoppable. God’s children have the privilege to silence every opposition. All they need to do is to render praise to their God. When they render praise to their God, He will render confusion to their opposition and still the noise of the opposition. With the joy of the LORD in your heart, lift your hands and let the praises of God flow from your mouth. Very soon, this obstacle or issue you saw yesterday you shall see no more forever.    Today’s prayer: I will not be silent and will open my mouth and praise God and He will silence every opposition aga...

Francis Agbo's Daily Devotional January 5, 2023 Title: Choose life!

 Francis Agbo's Daily Devotional  January 5, 2023 Title: Choose life! Text: This law scroll must not leave your lips! You must memorize it day and night so you can carefully obey all that is written in it. Then you will prosper and be successful. - Joshua 1:8 NET God said choices matter. You become what you choose. That is why Joshua told the people to choose. He said to choose life and you will have what you choose. You are not as weak as the devil wants you to believe. You have authority over your life under God. The devil cannot put anything on you without your permission. We permit the devil to put things on us, mostly through ignorance and sin. God left you choices and showed you what to choose. He said I set before you life and death. Choose life over death. Choose prosperity over poverty. Choose health over sickness and disease. Choose to become what God planned for you to become. Choose to fulfill God’s purpose for your life. You are a product of your choices so choose...
