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...

Open Heaven For Teens 8 December 2022 – Mercy

 



Open Heaven For Teens 8 December 2022 – Mercy



TOPIC: Mercy [Open Heaven for Teens 8 December 2022]


MEMORISE: For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings. Hosea 6:6



READ: Matthew 18:23-35


Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants.

And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten thousand talents.

But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.

The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt.

But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants, which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay me that thou owest.

And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt.

So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done.

Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me:

Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee?

And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him.

So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 3 John 1:1-15, Daniel 11-12


MESSAGE:


Mercy is an attitude of compassion, care and concern, wrapped in love towards others. It is also one of the attributes of God which He expects us to show towards others. A good recipient of Gods mercy is Apostle Paul. He said in 1 Timothy 1:13 “Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.”


Paul never took his conversion for granted; he valued it and, being a beneficiary of mercy, preached a lot about mercy – indeed more than anyone else in the Bible. He was different from the servant in todays Bible reading who didn’t show mercy after being a recipient of it.

God expects us to be merciful, having received mercy from Him. The Bible says in Lamentations 3:22 that we would have been consumed if not for the mercies of God. Don’t be quick to condemn others, particularly those who don’t have Jesus in their lives yet; show mercy. Preach to them from a heart of compassion, not condemnation, because mercy is the bedrock of love.


PRAYER POINT


Father, please fill my heart with tender mercies for lost souls.


HYMN: Pass Me Not, O Gentle Saviour,


Pass me not, O gentle Saviour,

Hear my humble cry;

While on others Thou art calling,

Do not pass me by.

CHORUS

Saviour, Saviour,

Hear my humble cry;

While on others Thou art calling;

Do not pass me by.


Let me, at Thy throne of mercy

Find a sweet relief;

Kneeling there in deep contrition,

Help my unbelief.

Trusting only in Thy merit

Would I seek Thy face

Heal my wounded, broken spirit,

Save me by Thy grace.

Thou, the spring of all my comfort,

More than life to me.

Whom have I on earth beside Thee?

Whom in heaven but Thee

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...
