Speak As Desired Part I -- Pastor Femi Emmanuel

QUOTE OF THE DAY: “RIGHT WORDS PRODUCE RIGHT RESULTS, AND WRONG WORDS PRODUCE WRONG RESULTS” ANCHOR TEXT: “Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light” Genesis 1:2-3. Word produces after its kind, whether it is spoken to someone or to self. When words are spoken, be it pleasant words or negative words; whether they are uttered in happiness or in anger, they become spiritual seeds that are bound to produce harvest someday. Since every seed reproduces after its kind, it therefore follows that the right word produces the right result and vice-versa. Those idle comments and words spoken into your life, business and family and the nation, jokingly or seriously, are spiritual seeds that have profound creative effect. In the beginning, God intended to create an orderly universe and many glamorous things we see and enjoy today, but when He s...

Preventive Maintenance in Marriages -- Pastor Esther Ojeagbase

Pastor Esther Ojeagbase wrote: Three (3) things to use in preventing our Marriage and in our relationship  Preventive maintenance in marriages is very important in other to keep the marriage running and to foresee likely problems in our marriages before they emerge. Marriage is much like a car. It can work absolutely fine until the day it suddenly stop. Outwardly, everything worked and looked fine. But you get up one morning to find the car no longer runs not because of the external look but only because of the internal problem which could have been prevented if maintenance and servicing have been done to the car earlier. This also happens in marriages. Most marital problems could have been prevented with standard preventive maintenance. When things are going good in a marriage we have a tendency to grow lax. After all, things are great! Things are fine! But all the things we did to get the marriage strong we need to continue. It is amazing the efforts that we put into a ...

Foolishness In Vow Taking -- Pastor E.A Adeboye

Open Heavens Daily Devotional (Friday July 8th, 2016 Memory Verse: Better is it that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay.  -- Ecclesiastes 5:5 Bible Reading: Psalms 15:1-4, (KJV)  1 Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill? 2 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart. 3 He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour. 4 In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that fear the LORD. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not. Message There will be both pleasant and unpleasant surprises in Heaven. The reason being that many who we think will not make it to Heaven will make it in, just like the robber on the right hand of the Cross of Jesus Christ did. The Bible says; “But if the wicked turn from his wickedness, and do that which is lawful and right, he s...

Undisclosed -- Pastor Femi Monehin

God's Favourite House Daily Devotional (Friday 7th July 2016 “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall remain stable and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty [Whose power no foe can withstand]”  -- Ps.91:1 [AMP] Keep your mouth shut! What a way to start today’s devotional right? Surprise! When God gives you an idea, He expects that you incubate the idea. As you incubate the idea, you are generating spiritual power to birth the idea. Keep your mouth shut! Sometimes it is just one particular person, even if you do not tell anybody else, once you tell that person the idea will not see the light of day. Many of you have such people in your lives; so why do you keep talking to them? Every hold they have on you is broken now, in Jesus Name. Keep your mouth shut! There is this folk tale about Alade, a very wealthy man in the village. But Alade had horns so he used to wear a big cap to cover it up. Alade had a friend that he thought was close enough to reveal...

Protected by Love -- Kenneth Copeland Ministries

Kenneth Copeland Ministries Daily Devotional ( Friday 8th July 2016) Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; that ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven. – Matthew 5:44-45 Love your enemies...turn the other cheek...to most people that sounds like a pretty weak way to handle someone who's causing them trouble. But, the truth is, it's the most powerful way there is. It's the way Jesus did it—and His way never fails. Do you remember when Jesus went back to Nazareth and the religious folks were angry with Him and wanted to push Him off a cliff? What happened? He just walked right past them, and no one could lay a finger on Him. Another time they decided to stone Him, and He didn't retaliate that time either. He just walked off. No one could touch Him. When Jesus walked through that crowd, He wasn't afraid. He knew they couldn't hurt ...
