Oluboye Emmanuel Ministry Mobile Daily Devotional Week 19, Day 6, Friday, 9th May 2025 TOPIC: LESSONS FROM SAUL AND DAVID: Discouragers Interference (6)


TOPIC: LESSONS FROM SAUL AND DAVID: Discouragers interference (6)

One Year Bible Reading: 
1 King 2 - 3, John 4 : 27 - 54.

MEMORY VERSE:
Matthew 11:12.
"12. And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force."

BIBLE READING:
1 Samuel 17:28.
"28. And Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spake unto the men; and Eliab's anger was kindled against David, and he said, Why camest thou down hither? and with whom hast thou left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know thy pride, and the naughtiness of thine heart; for thou art come down that thou mightest see the battle."

Thinking Point:
Everything good has enmity or an opposition. It may look like caring but beware.

Have you ever made a strong decision and people try to talk you out of it? Have you made up your mind to speak up for God and relatives, family members and close friends tried discouraging you from doing it? Yes, it's called, "discouragers interference". They are not willing to do what you desire but are willing to discourage you from doing it, presenting good reasons not to take the step. Every great decision needs great motivation but it also comes with a great antagonist. 

Eliab was David's elder brother and a soldier of Saul. He tried using his position as elder brother and David's responsibility to prevent him from facing Goliath. He accused him of coming to see the battle. But do we remember he was sent there to care for his brother. Listen, when the spirit of the Lord is upon a man he can't look away from anything that defies the name of the Lord, that was the case of David. Saul could run away from the battlefield, the soldiers of Israel saw nothing bad in what Goliath was doing because they lacked the spirit of the Lord within. But David has been anointed and the spirit of the Lord is upon him. He was able to recognise the attack on God, but his elder brother who doesn't have the same spirit was trying to discourage him because they don't know what he carried. 

Brethren, don't let those who don't carry what you carry and those who don't know what you are carrying to discourage you from functioning with that endowment. They will remind you how your father failed, other people who died while trying, and those who are running from that responsibility, they will give you reasons to quit what God has predestined you for, don't listen to them, this may be your breaking point in life if you will take the step. Beware of discouragers interference, don't let them talk you out of what God has ordained you to do.

Good morning, 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...
