Mobile Daily Devotional with Pst. Oluboye Emmanuel Week 44, Day 5, Thursday, 31st October 2024 TOPIC: TRUSTING GOD: Praises Replaces Grumbling (5)


TOPIC: TRUSTING GOD: Praises Replaces Grumbling (5) 

MEMORY VERSE: 
Proverbs 3:5-6.
"5. Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding."
"6. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths."

BIBLE READING:
Acts 16:23 - 26
"23. They were severely beaten, and then they were thrown into prison. The jailer was ordered to make sure they didn’t escape."
"24. So the jailer put them into the inner dungeon and clamped their feet in the stocks."
"25. Around midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening."
"26. Suddenly, there was a massive earthquake, and the prison was shaken to its foundations. All the doors immediately flew open, and the chains of every prisoner fell off!"

Thinking Point:
Our trust in God is what defines our praises instead of grumbling when all things look contrary.

Trusting God presents us foolishly to those who don't understand our way of life. I will always say this again and again, not everyone you see in church dancing, smiling and jovial is without issues, no, they only trust God that "He is able to do all things." Trusting God makes us walk in the reality of "what God can do" not "If God can do it". When you see believers jumping in the service, don't be carried away, they may have no plans for what they will eat at home but they trust God that they will eat. It's very easy to know where you trust lies when you are in need or faced with challenges, your praise or grumbling symbolizes where your trust is.

Paul and Silas were locked up for rebuking an evil spirit in a girl child. The best situation at that moment was for them to grumble to God, "God why me?" They were supposed to resist arrest or prove they were not guilty if they were locked in prison. The bible said at midnight, both of them praised and prayed until the doors fled open in their own accords, why will they do this? They knew who they trusted. They knew how to prove to Him that they are not moved. A heart filled with Praise is a heart that makes God His trust under any condition. Hope you don't earn the title of Mr or Mrs grumbler? If you do, your trust is not in God but in Mammon. After their praises, the family of the prison guard gave their lives to God, why? Because he saw something different in their life. What do you do when situations look frustrating? Grumbling or praise? Define your trust with your praise.

Good day and God Bless you.

TOPIC: UNREQUESTED FAVOUR: By Showing Hospitality (6)  MEMORY VERSE:  Jeremiah 29:11. "11. For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end." BIBLE READING:  2 Kings 4:13-17. "13. And he said unto him, Say now unto her, Behold, thou hast been careful for us with all this care; what is to be done for thee? wouldest thou be spoken for to the king, or to the captain of the host? And she answered, I dwell among mine own people." "14. And he said, What then is to be done for her? And Gehazi answered, Verily she hath no child, and her husband is old." "15. And he said, Call her. And when he had called her, she stood in the door." "16. And he said, About this season, according to the time of life, thou shalt embrace a son. And she said, Nay, my lord, thou man of God, do not lie unto thine handmaid." "17. And the woman conceived, and bare a son at t...

Mobile Daily Devotional with Oluboye Emmanuel Week 16, Day 3, Tuesday, 15th April 2025 TOPIC: CAUSES OF DELAY: Lack Of Good Leadership or Mentorship (3)

Image
TOPIC: CAUSES OF DELAY: Lack Of Good Leadership or Mentorship (3) One Year Bible Reading:  Judges 19 - 21, Luke 14: 25 - 15: 1 - 10. MEMORY VERSE:  Deuteronomy 1:6. "6. The LORD our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount:" BIBLE READING:  Exodus 33:11. "11. And the LORD spake unto Moses face to face, as a man speaketh unto his friend. And he turned again into the camp: but his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, departed not out of the tabernacle." Thinking Point: The best way to enjoy speed in life is to be led by those who had plight that road and succeeded before. We started by saying disobedience to God's instructions leads to delay, and yesterday we were made to know that lack of direction can also be the reason for delay. Today, lack of good leadership or mentorship leads to delay in one's life. Imagine following someone who doesn't have any record of success in life and who never sees reas...
