Mobile Daily Devotional with Oluboye Emmanuel Week 16, Day 6, Friday, 18th April 2025 TOPIC: CAUSES OF DELAY: By Not Involving God (6)


TOPIC: CAUSES OF DELAY: By Not Involving God (6)

One Year Bible Reading: 
1 Samuel 3 - 7, Luke 17 : 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: 
Proverbs 3:5-7.
'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."
"7. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil."

Thinking Point:
Trusting in our ability without consulting God leads to delay and a waste of time and resources.

God is the ultimate in all we do. No matter what we know or have, without Him we are nothing. We may be working and walking around, enjoying affluence, without involving Him brethren, that may not be the fulfillment He ordained for us, we may be working someone else's calling or area leaving ours when we depend on our own understanding. Most time we put God side and take the lead which makes us go stray from Him, the Bible says in John 15 verse 5, I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: FOR WITHOUT ME YE CAN DO NOTHING.

"Ye can do nothing" doesn't mean you are not doing anything at all but without me you can't function where you belong. Without me you can think you're successful but achieve less than you are purposed to achieve in life. That's why many work but can't earn a living. Many gather wealth but lack peace of mind. Many have the wisdom, knowledge and affluence but make nothing meaningful out of it because it is without God, we depend on our own understanding.

In Luke 15, When the prodigal son left his father (God) with the wealth he accumulated, he was acting without God. He thought he had all he ever needed without God (Father). He was enjoying life by his understanding. Until the day he came back to his senses and realised he was without God (His Father) and rushed back to Him, that was the end of wasteful life. Those times were a season of delay in fulfilling God's purpose for his life, a season without God, a season with self understanding and knowledge. I pray today that God will open our eyes to see where we've been acting, walking and working without God in our lives in Jesus name, Amen.

Trusting in the Lord with all our being rescues us from wasteful life, a season of delay in God's purpose for our lives. Leaning on our understanding prolong our journey to God's plan for our lives, it's time to end the delay by seeking God's face to know what He wants us to do.

Good morning, and God bless you.

Why Are You Afraid?

" Why Are You Afraid?" Bible Passage: Mark 4:36-40. "36. they took Jesus in the boat and started out, leaving the crowds behind (although other boats followed)." "37. But soon a fierce storm came up. High waves were breaking into the boat, and it began to fill with water." "38. Jesus was sleeping at the back of the boat with his head on a cushion. The disciples woke him up, shouting, “Teacher, don’t you care that we’re going to drown?” "39. When Jesus woke up, he rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Silence! Be still!” Suddenly the wind stopped, and there was a great calm." "40. Then he asked them, “Why are you afraid? Do you still have no faith?” Opposition After Victory  When Jesus was resting in the boat comfortably after His crusade with different signs and wonders. The devil saw that he lost many battles, many of his captives were delivered and set free from their shackles. He was enraged at Jesus. The reason for th...

Mobile Daily Devotional with Pst. Oluboye Emmanuel Week 32, Day 6 Friday, 9th August 2024. TOPIC: NO EXCUSES TO GIVE UP: Being A Captive (6)

Image
TOPIC: NO EXCUSES TO GIVE UP: Being A Captive (6) MEMORY VERSE:  Judges 6:14 14 Then the lord turned to him and said, “Go with the strength you have, and rescue Israel from the Midianites. I am sending you!” BIBLE READING:  Isaiah 49:24-25. "24. Shall the prey be taken from the mighty, or the lawful captive delivered?" "25. But thus saith the LORD, Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, and the prey of the terrible shall be delivered: for I will contend with him that contendeth with thee, and I will save thy children." Thinking Point: Lawfully and unlawfully captives can be freed as long as we stay put with God. No strongman is greater than than God. Wherever we've been a captive, in any form, God will deliver us with His Mighty hands in Jesus Name, Amen. When Isaiah was declaring God's prophecy concerning the children of Israel scattered in all nation, He talked about two different captivities which are, The Lawfully captive and th...
