Giving Is A Great Habit For You

Giving Is A Great Habit For You

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Do you know that giving is a great habit? And God has given you a pattern of how to give. According to the bible, God gave His only son, Jesus, to die for your sins.

God loved the world this way: He gave his only Son so that everyone who believes in him will not die but will have eternal life. John 3:16 GW

Jesus did so too through His actions, to show us that giving is a great habit. Look at how He fed the thousands of people while teaching them about the kingdom of God.

Then he took the five loaves and the two fish, looked up to heaven, and blessed the food. He broke the loaves apart and kept giving them to the disciples to give to the crowd. Luke 9:16 GW

Giving is a great habit. It’s a habit you show that makes people know that you are truly a child of God. If God can allow Jesus to swap places with you, why won’t you forgive that person that hurt you? If Jesus can pray to God to bless the food to feed the people, why won’t you pray for a friend who has a need?

You can give your things, time, prayers and even a smile. As long as your gift makes their situations better.

Developing giving as a habit reflects to others that you have God’s spirit working in you. As you start little by little, it becomes a part of you. And as you grow older, you become a person that gives. That way you have formed the habit of giving.

May the Lord bless you more and more as you give to other people. Amen.

Prayer:
Lord, thank you for showing me that giving is a great habit, and for showing me how to give. Help me to give cheerfully, with love and respect for those I give to. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Action point:
Remember to give with joy in your heart. And to show respect to the people you give to.

Judging Others – You Will Receive Same

Judging Others – You Will Receive Same

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Judging others – you will receive same! Now let’s quickly read something Jesus said:

Give, and you will receive. You will be given much. It will be poured into your hands—more than you can hold. You will be given so much that it will spill into your lap. The way you give to others is the way God will give to you.” Luke 6:38 ICB
This Scripture portrays our topic (Judging others – you will receive same); let’s see how.

Looking at judging others from yesterday, you saw what Jesus said about the topic. Now, this is the continuation of that teaching by Jesus.
He said you should give and you will receive just as you have given. What it means is simple: Judging others – you will receive same.

So, you are judging others, but don’t know that some people are judging you as well. Maybe on the assembly ground, you are making fun of people about their clothes, shoes, clothes or something else. There are people behind you making fun of you too. That’s just how it is (Judging others – you will receive same)

As you judge others so shall you be judged (judging others – you will receive same.) This is because no one is perfect. It’s the grace of God that has been at work in your life, that has helped you achieve all that you so far and still at work in your life. So why would you judge or make fun of someone who is not having as good as you are right now?

The last part of the verse says that it’s the way you give that God will give to you. So it is same in this matter too: judging others – you will receive same. If you judge people often without a thought, you will be judged also like that. But if you take some time to think before doing so and not judge, the same will happen to you.

The bottom line is – what you give you will receive! Judging others – you will receive same!

May the Lord give you grace at all times. Amen 

Prayer: Father, I want to receive mercy from you. Help me to show such mercy to others and not judge them. Help me to keep this phrase (“Judging others – you will receive same”) in mind always. Amen

Action plan: Give as much mercy as you want to receive from others, cos judging others – you will receive same!

Affairs in Marriage: Five Ways To Handle It – Part 3

Affairs in Marriage: Five Ways To Handle It – Part 3

Reading Time: 3 minutes

So here is the concluding part of our series on Handling affairs in marriage.  Let me just delve into today’s teaching and get it over with.

Like I said earlier, the Grace of God needs to be embraced in an abundant measure to effectively help with handling affairs in marriage.

 4. A lot of teachings

It is good for the spouse of the erring couple to surround the spouse involved in an affair with a lot of good teaching materials. It is the truth from inside those books that God will use to set him/her free. It is the truth that set free

Joh 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

No matter your good words it will not be as effective as God’s word. Let good lead you to specific materials and tapes of anointed men and women of God. There is virtually every book on every topic you are looking for on telegram, books on handling affairs in marriage inclusive. Download them and let the spouse involved in an affair, read them.

Transformation only comes by renewing the mind.

Rom 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

It will also be helpful if the erring spouse can have some time of sober reflection, this has a good part to play in handling affairs in marriage.

5. A lot of prayers

This becomes very important. Intercession must be going on for the spouse involved in affair as much as the erring spouse should also be doing a lot of prayer for himself or herself.

Prayers for the help of God, Mercy, forgiveness, Grace to crucify the flesh and not yield to its dictates must be said as often as possible by the erring spouse. Faith and hope must also be kept alive because if the devil succeeds in getting the erring spouse to a point of defeat, this will help in handling affairs in marriage. A point where he/she feels despondent or a feeling of ‘there is no point’, ‘ let give up’, the battle has been lost.

But keep hope alive and encourage the erring spouse that with God all things are possible. The grace of God can make strong. The flesh cannot have dominion over you because Christ has already died for you. Prayer is a game-changer when it comes to handling affairs in marriage

We are not of them that give up. Christ never gave up even though the pain and the price he paid was so much. He won the victory. He won the battle. So we have the victory. We are only enforcing our victory because the devil is a liar.

The devil seeks to kill, steal and destroy. The erring spouse must just be encouraging  to stand his ground.

Psa 30:5 For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.

There will be great joy, if you endure the discipline of enforcing your victory and you’re finally able to handle and put a stop to affairs in marriage.

Jas 4:7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

When you learn to submit to God and his principles and ways of doing things, you will resist the devil and he has no choice but to flee, and this will help a great deal in handling affairs in marriage.

Resist him no matter how strong the temptation is or long the addiction has been. You resist him in the name of Jesus. Use every weapon to resist him. The blood of Jesus, communion, the word, prayers and he will flee.

God bless you.

May God grant us more understanding and give us grace to do. God surround our marriage in Jesus name.

CONFESSION FOR THE DAY
I will be faithful to my partner.

PRAYER FOR THE DAY
Father, help me to keep my marriage vows.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
James 4:7 (ESV): Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he
will flee from you.

ACTION PLAN FOR THE DAY
Open up to your spouse, if need be.

BIBLE READING FOR THE DAY
Js 4
