WINNING THE BATTLE OF THE DAY( By Apostle Mary)

 Matthew 6:34, Luke 9:23, these are scriptures that show us that each day we have a cross to carry and matters to take care of. There are battles daily but the word of the Lord gives us hope in Psalm 91:5-6 that the arrow that flies by day and the terror of the night will not catch up with us. How then can we experience victory in our daily lives? Here's how:

  1. Speak life - let the words that come out of your mouth be life and positive. Isaiah 41:15-16; proverbs 18:21; Revelation 12:11.
  2. Give thanks - the word of the Lord encourages is to be thankful at all times. Philippians 4:6; 2 Chronicles 20:15-19.
  3. Be ware of where you are supposed to be.
  4. Have faith - without faith we cannot please God and hence we cannot experience His power over our daily lives. Zechariah 4:6; Ephesians 3:20.
  5. Know your God - have a relationship and an understanding of the Lord for who He really is for then you know what He can do, what He loves and loves not in order to please Him and experience victory in your life. Daniel 11:32.
May we see victory everyday as we take up our crosses to follow the Lord.

Giving: First Fruits

Last week we started to talk about giving, and looked extensively at tithing. I believe we now have more knowledge on this topic, and we will enjoy tithing and the benefits of the same. Today I want us to look at first fruits as a type of giving, and then later look at giving as a whole and learning about how to give cheerfully. If you missed on the teaching on tithing, I would urge to go back to the blog and read it, as most of the principles we will be talking about today will be a build-up to what we shared on regarding tithing. 2.      First fruits This is simply the first increase of produce. Despite being extremely important to us and to God, it is also one of the most ignored areas of giving. For many, it is the same as tithing, and for others it is optional. Though it shares some similarities with tithing, it is not the same as tithing.  Let us learn more about first fruits from the scriptures. Genesis 4:3-4 And in the process of time ...

Serving God Has Never Been in Vain

Image
Sometimes in serving God we may feel like it's all in vain, like there is no benefit to what we are doing. Time and time again God reminds us in His Word that serving Him has never been in vain. Let us look at a few stories from the Bible that demonstrate this, so that you and I can be encouraged to keep serving God, and serve Him with all we have.  2 Kings 4:1-7 A certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets cried out to Elisha, saying, “Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that your servant feared the Lord. And the creditor is coming to take my two sons to be his slaves.”  2 So Elisha said to her, “What shall I do for you? Tell me, what do you have in the house?” And she said, “Your maidservant has nothing in the house but a jar of oil.”  3 Then he said, “Go, borrow vessels from everywhere, from all your neighbors—empty vessels; do not gather just a few. 4 And when you have come in, you shall shut the door behind you and your sons; then pour ...

Overcoming the Enemies of Our Destinies

There are enemies ready and armed to prevent us from getting to our destinies. Wherever there is a vision, there is opposition.  Elisha was given by God to Elijah as a servant, and as a result he received a double portion of the anointing on Elijah's life, when Elijah left (2 Kings 2:15). God in turn gave Gehazi to Elijah as a servant, who sadly could not get to his destiny because he was overcome by the enemies of destiny (2 Kings 5:20-27).  As a Christian, be alert as there are enemies out to hinder you from getting to your destiny, and walking in it.  In John's open letter to the churches in Asia, John addresses these enemies: 1 John 2:15-17 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world - the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life -- is not of the Father but is of the world. 17 And the world is passing away, and the lust of it;...
