IF GOD IS YOUR FOCUS, YOU WILL EMERGE A FOCUS

By
THEME: FOCUS ON GOD

ANCHOR TEXT: “Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame” Psalms 34:5.

Have you ever been in the company of someone who makes time with God a priority? There is a sort of radiance in his attitude and overall outlook. He is always enthusiastic, hopeful and joyful. His attitude of focusing intently on God instead of worldly affair magnifies God’s glory on him. Keeping focus on Christ means to fade out everything that pulls you away from connecting to Him.

It’s a disciplined lifestyle of choosing to see every blessing and struggle of now through the lens of Christ. It means resting your case on God’s injunction: ‘Cast your cares upon the Lord for He cares for you’ (1 Peter 5:7). When you commit all to Him, He will perfect all that concerns you.

Peter and John in Acts 3, made God their focus and they became ‘semi gods’ to the people as a result of the erupt of miracles. The man at the beautiful gate was made perfect, crippled leg restored in the name of Jesus. If they were not living pleasing to God, they would not have been able to do such exploit. They left all the worldly cares to be with Jesus, and they were richly blessed.

His Channels

By
Rom.1:20 For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God [with emphasis]. So far we have examined three channels God uses to speak to us. If you are not reading your Bible consistently, if you are not listening to messages over and over again, and if you are not accountable to other believers, you do not have believers that are speaking into your life, you have already missed three main channels God speaks through. Channel #4: God speaks to us through His Creation. Ps.19:1 The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship. 2 Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make him known. 3 They speak without a sound or word; their voice is never heard. 4 Yet their message has gone throughout the earth, and their words to all the world [with emphasis]. God’s cre...

THEME: RETREAT TO REFRESH READ: Matt. 11:25-30 When some musicians want to release great songs, they retreat to secluded places where they can reflect, meditate and create. Some choose places overlooking the vast oceans, some choose where there are waterfalls, and some choose places with thick forestations.  As they observe the beauty of nature, the swift moves and songs of the soaring birds, the colourful flowering vegetations, the serene beaches and the unending waves of the nearby waters, they capture inspiration that helps them develop the hit songs they have been longing for. I met one of the world’s renowned musicians in Atlanta, USA a few years ago where journalist surrounded him and were asking what he had come to do and why his beards had grown so much. He said that his last album did not perform well enough and he was incubating another one he wanted to release that would perform better. He said that he needed to pull away from the Noise of New York and California ...

God Will Turn Your Life Around By Jerry Savelle

By
Jerry Savelle Ministries Daily Devotional Friday 12th August 2016 And the Lord will make you the head and not the tail; you shall be above only, and not be beneath, if you heed the commandments of the Lord your God, which I command you today, and are careful to observe them  - Deuteronomy 28:13 NKJV Many people suffer from feelings of rejection. All their lives they’ve been told things that have kept them down and held them back. Perhaps you are one of these people. Maybe you were told you’d never amount to anything. You may have been born into poverty and told you would always be poor. Or you may have been ridiculed and told that no one would ever love you. Although circumstances may make these statements appear to be factual, they are not the truth. If you go to the Bible, you’ll find out that God’s plans for you are always good. In fact, if you will put God at the center of your life, He will turn things around for you. If you allow it, God will take you from being b...
