God's Favourite House Daily Devotional Saturday 23rd July 2016 Theme: Cut It Off   “He cuts off every branch of mine that doesn’t produce fruit, and he prunes the branches that do bear fruit so they will produce even more” John 15:2 You cannot just be doing things because other people are doing it. That is the fastest route to killing yourself. As a church, in God’s Favourite House, there are so many things that we have put to sleep. One example is bulletins. The amount of work hours that goes into printing bulletins every week is a lot; content development, content gathering, proof reading, and the printing not to talk of the cost of the printing. So one day I met with my team and challenged the usefulness of the bulletins. Do people really read the bulletins? So we decided to do a little experiment, we would stop printing bulletins and see who misses it. We stopped and nobody missed it. A few months later I asked someone, how was the bulletin last week?

 From Faith To Faith Daily Devotional 23rd Saturday July 2016 Theme: Nothing to Lose Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.

Jesus' life on earth was a perfect example of a totally yielded life. He was a walking example of the benefits godly living brings. Everywhere He went, Jesus made the deaf to hear, the blind to see, the lame to walk. He lived...

Open Heaven Daily Devotional  Saturday 23rd July 2016 Theme: It Is Finished Memorise: For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich. - 2 Corinthians 8:9 Read: John 19:28-30 MESSAGE When our Lord Jesus Christ cried, "It Is Finished", He really did mean that it is finished. However, some children of God do not know the importance of that statement. Some believe that the wages of sin have been fully paid and so we are on our way to Heaven. Correct. Some people believe that all the misfortunes that came upon human race as a result of the fall have been paid for. This is equally true. The problem we must however fix in our devotional reading for today is irregularity in the doctrine of the atonement of Jesus Christ. We must get it right and perfect. Some believe that when Jesus Christ said "it is finished" He meant that He had paid the debt of sin in full and...
