Build To Last

*Build To Last* 

_Key Bible Text:_
*"There is going to come a time of testing at Christ's Judgement Day to see what kind of material each builder has used”* (1Corinthians 3:13)

_Bible Insight:_
The little experience we have had with Lagos rain are especially the kind that comes with serious winds or the ones that pours continuously non-stop. And this unpalatable experiences, of which we are not proud of has forced my husband to submit a proposal to one of the P.A.s of our seating Governor. Some of the main suggestions bothers around structural planning and drainage maintenance. While these may serve as a damage control, the most appropriate approach would be to focus on the quality of the materials used for building from start-to-finish. Especially the foundation.

Foundation is an integral part of a building. The strength of any building is determined by it's foundation. For us as believers, Jesus Christ is our foundation. We build our lives on Him and around Him. He's our pillar, our support, our back-bone. As skillful builders that we are, we do not build our lives with materials that fire can burn because that will only amount to a great waste (1Corinthians 3:15). _We build to last._ This is done *by listening to our LORD daily and obeying Him quickly (Luke 6:46-48).*

God has been communicating some things to His Church through the recent happenings, how it will be on the last day. How could peaceful protest turn into a mournful event! Beautiful building turned into ashes dump, just like that!? "All of a sudden"! That's how the scripture says it will happen. His coming will come _like a thief in the night._

MEDITATION:
*God is free to come into His house whenever He wants because we are His temple, His building, His property. We belong to Him.*

FINANCING MISSIONS (II)

*DAILY DEW 21ST/DECEMBER/2021* *FINANCING MISSIONS* (II) _Key Bible Text:_ *Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ. As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.* (Galatians 6:2, 10 (KJV))  _Bible Insight:_ How do we get it?  Perhaps if I were to tell you how we do NOT get it, it would help. We do not raise it by means of suppers, bazaars, concerts, rummage sales, or oyster stews. Not because I am against these methods, but because they will not work. What does a business man do when he runs across a method that will not work? He scraps it, does he not?  Now listen. I am responsible, humanly speaking, for the personal support of three hundred and fifty missionaries. Every month of my life I have to get more than $25,000, or humanly speaking, they will starve.  How many of you business men carry as heavy a responsibility? What would you do if you had to get $25...

THE WAY OF THE CROSS (II)

Image
*DAILY DEW 16TH/SEPTEMBER/2021* *THE WAY OF THE CROSS* (II) _Key Bible Text:_ *Who His own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.* (1 Peter 2:24 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ *Through Christ’s death on the cross, those who turn to Him are delivered from both the penalty and the power of sin.* (1 Peter 2:24 New American Standard Bible) What are the benefits that accrue to us from following the cross, or carrying the cross to follow Jesus? In answering this, we need to understand that it is the death and resurrection of Jesus on the cross that gives the cross its power.  "1. Through Christ’s death on the cross, those who turn to Him are delivered from the penalty of sin." This is clearly the meaning of the words, “He Himself bore our sins in His body on the tree.” By using the word “tree” rather than “cross,” Peter no doubt had in mind Deuteronomy 21:22-23, where it pre...

TRUSTING AGAINST ALL ODDS*

Image
*DAILY DEW 24TH/DECEMBER/2021* *TRUSTING AGAINST ALL ODDS* _Key Bible Text:_ *"Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him."* (Job 13:15 (KJV))  _Bible Insight:_ It's an uphill task trying to understand God's plan, especially when we can't make logical sense of what we see happening to and around us. But we aren't instructed to understand His plans, but to TRUST HIM and be secure in the knowledge that He's working everything to ultimately turn out for our good.  God won't mismanage your life. Trust Him with it and be willing and quick to obey His instructions even when they don't fit into your parameter of what's logical. One of the truest form of worship we can give to God is to TRUST Him - leaning our entire existence on the unchangeability of His nature and counsels. ❤ _MEDITATION:_ *In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion.* (Psalms 71:1 (KJV)) *#Chibuikem_...
