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...

Breakfast with Jesus

DATE 24th June, 2023 TOPIC Breakfast with Jesus LIVING SCRIPTURE Psalm 65:4 KJV Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to approach unto thee, that he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, even of thy holy temple. The Psalmist was a peculiar man and one that feared the LORD and walked in the paths of righteousness. In his meditation and Psalms, he learnt to dine with Jesus Christ early and through Psalms, from the 63rd to the 66th, he found a way to breakfast with Jesus. The first contact we should have everyday is Jesus Christ, to receive of His glorious satisfaction early, contentment and to be filled with the goodness and mercy He gives His children daily. When a child eats with his parents there's that joy and peace within, such comfort and full assurance. Jesus Christ always ate with our Heavenly Father while He was here on earth, He sought after the LORD daily and was satisfied with the glory and goodness of the Father. Each...

Forgiveness of Sins

DATE - April 7th, 2022 TOPIC - Forgiveness of Sins BIBLE TEXT - Acts 5:31 AMP God exalted Him to His right hand as Prince and Savior and Deliverer, in order to grant repentance to Israel, and [to grant] forgiveness of sins. Apostle Peter stood tall before the council (Sanhedrin, Jewish High Court) to speak with boldness about a God who Saves and sets free any sinner from the power of sin. As a man who has been shown mercy though a man once filled with sinful ways, the Holy Spirit quickened him through his personal testimony of experiencing true forgiveness of sins before the Jewish High Court. Peter was a local fisherman with no knowledge of the gospel truth, who lived as he pleased. Until he encountered Jesus when Christ was walking by the sea of Galilee and he spotted Simon Peter who was in his boat struggling to catch a few fishes for days. Like many out there today who are living in sin and still struggling to make ends meet, Jesus is passing through that street, area...
