Having Both of Them
Memory verse: - 2John 1:9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.
Bible Reading: - 2 John 1:1 – 13
Message
How wonderful and marvelous would it be to have both the father and the son abiding with you. Cast your mind back to the rewarding and profitable presence of God with Joseph at home and abroad; remember how God commanded Isaac to dwell in the land and he had abundant harvest even than the people of the land in time of famine; behold his mightiness in the life of Jabez who He made to be more honourable than his brethren; his presence with Daniel made the ferocious and hungry lions powerless and rendered the consuming fire harmless for the three Hebrew children to mention but a few. He is as potent and powerful today as of yesterday, he has not for a second changed from whom he is; he is ever ready to abide with them that are ready to let him; would you not allow him to enter in and abide with you? For he stands at door knocking the door of heart, open it widely for him to come in and dwell with you.
It is not enough to allow God and Christ to come into your life; but you must surrender your will and life completely unto their leading, commands and authority. Let God has his way in you and not your will anymore and by so doing you abide in the doctrine of Christ which will enable both the father and the son to dwell with you.
Search the scriptures and you will discover that all the time God was with Israelites, they never lost any battle; the children of Anak and giants are food unto them; Goliaths could not stand before them; they amazingly consumed seven nations mightier and stronger than them. You can see that it pays to abide in the doctrine of Christ which is for your own good.
Jesus is the only way that leads to the father, therefore, whosoever yields his life to Christ will have the father as well because God the father said he is my beloved son, hear him and Jesus said he that has seen me had seen the father also for I and my father are one; I am in the father and the father is in me.
Disciples indeed; real disciples dwell and continue in the sayings of Christ; in the doctrine of Christ, so continue in the doctrine of Christ and do remember this that by so doing you are not alone in the journey of life and you will overcome your challenges every time till you get home in the eternal bliss of God, saints and Holy Angels.
Confession of the Day
I have given my life to Christ and I know that I am not alone in this journey of life. I have both the father and the son as well as the abiding presence of Holy Ghost.

Prayer Points

Lord, help me, uphold me with thy right hand of righteousness; keep me in thy love to the very end and help me overcome my earthly challenges every time in Jesus name. (AMEN)

STERLING LEADERSHIP

Image
D.C.L.M. DAILY   MANNA WEDNESDAY 9TH MAY, 2018 STERLING LEADERSHIP TEXT: GENESIS 47:13-31 KEY VERSE: “And they said, Thou hast saved our lives: let us find grace in the sight of my lord, and we shall be Pharaoh’s servants” (GENESIS 47:25). “No one needs aspire to leadership in the work of God who is not willing to pay the price greater than his/her contemporaries and colleagues are willing to pay. The more effective the leader is, the higher the price to be paid”, said J Oswald. Joseph stands out as an enduring proof of what the grace of God can do for a perfect, upright and diligent child of God. The expected season of the lean kine finally came. Pharaoh was prepared only because of Joseph’s astuteness in the management of the trust conferred upon him. He started to alleviate the suffering of masses by exchanging corn for money, then corn for land. In an uncanny display of shrewdness, he ultimately transferred the national wealth and citizens to the crown and saved ...

WELL OF LIFE

March 3 WELL OF LIFE The mouth of a righteous man is a well of life . . . . — PROVERBS 10:11 Immediately after the birth of our son and daughter, I took those little ones into my hands and said, “Lord, I thank You for this child. Because I know the Bible, I realize it is my responsibility to train up this child in the way it should go, and when it is old, it will not depart from it. “I realize Your Word says to bring our children up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, and I’m going to do that. I know that children are taught in two ways: By precept and by example. So I’m going to live right in front of this child. I will set the right example. Then, too, I know that you can have what you say, so I say over this child that it will grow up strong physically, without sickness and without disease; it will be alert mentally; and stalwart spiritually.” Our children grew up without sickness and disease. I never prayed a prayer that they would be saved. I never prayed a prayer that they...

PARALYZED

April 15 PARALYZED Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil. — HEBREWS 2:14 . . . That He might paralyse him that held the dominion of death, That is the Adversary. — HEBREWS 2:14 (Rotherham) Jesus put to naught the hosts of darkness! He paralyzed their deathdealing power! And when Jesus met John the Revelator on the Isle of Patmos, Jesus said, “I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death” (Rev. 1:18). Keys represent authority. Jesus conquered Satan and stripped him of his authority. Jesus was the Master of all hell! But Jesus did not conquer Satan for Himself. He conquered him for us. It was as though you and I personally had met Satan and had conquered him, stripped him of his authority, and stood as master over him. Confession: Jesus is my Head. Jesus i...
