WHO OWNS YOUR TONGUE

DATE:  16TH OCTOBER, 2021

TOPIC: WHO OWNS YOUR TONGUE?:

BIBLE TEXT: Proverbs 18vs21 – Death and life are in the power of tongue; and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.


The tongue is a little member of the body yet it carries great power! Just think of how a small flame can set a huge forest ablaze. The tongue is also a fire! It can be compared to the sum total of wickedness and is the most dangerous part of the human body. It corrupts the entire body and is a hellish flame! It releases a fire that can burn throughout the course of human existence.
Knowing this facts, we must be careful how we use this small but powerful member of the body. Who owns your tongue beloveth? Yes, you are born again! Yes you are spirit filled but who is in charge of your tongue? King David the psalmist lent his tongue briefly to the devil as he lusted after Bathsheba and made a request of doom and his family fell into ruins; Joshua the son of Nun lent his tongue to God and he and his family vowed to serve the LORD; The foolish man praised himself for the increase God gave and lost his soul; Jesus gave his tongue to God and the world has not recovered from his victory over the devil and(sin & death).

As a child of God your tongue belongs to God, submit it to Him and let life proceed out of it.


Prayer: Heavenly Father, I surrender my tongue to you, let your words train me and keep away from sin in Jesus name.

Insight: Study and meditate carefully on God’s word and speak it out often that’s how to speak life in Christ Jesus.

NEITHER HEIGHT NOR DEPTH

Date - December 28th, 2021 Topic - NEITHER HEIGHT NOR DEPTH Bible Text - For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. - Romans 8:38-39 Your parents love you. You may be able to do something that makes them angry, but you will never be able to do anything that makes them stop loving you. Try to imagine this kind of love and then multiply it by infinity. That’s the love that Jesus has for you. That’s the love that God has for you. God made you. He loved you enough to create you. He loved you enough to give you free will. Then he loved you enough to give you his Son. He loved you enough to forgive you for turning away from him. This is an impossible love! This is a love that we may never understand. But we don’t have to understand it. We just have to a...

THE EASY WAY

Date 📅 23rd September, 2022 Topic The Easy Way Living Scripture Matthew 7:13 KJV Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: There are many ways and roads in life both spiritually and physically but the paths we choose to walk on determines our destination at the end. This world is full of sin and disobedience and selfishness, it has a wide gate welcoming everyone and it's paths are broad to gather much people in order to destroy their lives. Lying has become part of the way of so many today even some part of the church lie and claim it's the easy way out of troubles and confrontations. The easy way or short cut as it is often mentioned is not the way of life neither the way of righteousness. Looking for the easy way is looking for death, it is an invitation to false spirits that corrupts and pollutes. Let us seek to know the true path that leads to life and life in...

PECULIAR PEOPLE

Date 📅 31st August, 2022 Topic Peculiar People  Living Scripture 1 Peter 2:9 KJV But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: In the beginning God the Father was and is and is to come for a particular kind of people as He once did with Adam and eve in Eden. He created the heavens and the earth and everything that lives and breathes. And by the power of His Word He made man in His own image and likeness. Therefore man was made right from the beginning to be peculiar and fit for the glory of God. There was no plan in God's holy palm to reduce man to a pauper, it was our sinful ways and disobedience that caused us to fall short of this beautiful inheritance our first father once partook of. A peculiar People stands different, out of the ordinary, unusual and unpredictable from a specific clan or place. The scripture reads t...
