FOUNTAIN OF LIFE DAILY DEVOTIONAL SATURDAY 21 DECEMBER, 2024

By Archbishop Amb. Prof. NC Lawrence Luba

TOPIC FOR THE DAY: DEVELOPING THE ENDURANCE CAPACITY (PART 6) – BY THE KNWOLEDGE OF THE MYSTERY OF GOD’S WILL

BIBLE TEXT FOR TODAY: Ephesians 1:9 Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself:

Ephesians 3:4 Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ

POINT FOR MEDITATION FOR TODAY: The discovery of mysteries is the destruction of miseries in life. Your victory over your misery is connected to your knowledge of the mystery of the will of God for your life..

THE MESSAGE: This is PART 6 of the series DEVELOPING THE ENDURANCE CAPACITY. Yesterday in the PART 5, we looked at not observing lying vanities as one of the ways to develop endurance capacity. It was understood that what you observe about life from God’s word, determines what you obtain from God for life.

Today we will look at another important way to develop Endurance Capacity, which is by the Knowledge of the Mystery of the will of God for you. One of the keys to a lifestyle of endurance is the knowledge of the Mystery of the will of God for your life. The secret to bearing up with persons and situations is in the knowledge of the mystery of God’s will for your life; whether in marriage, business, career etc, your understanding of the will of God will help you bear whatever comes to you. I have discovered from the word of God that men of old in the bible were very rugged in their faith and in their confidence in God because of their understanding of the mystery of the will of God for their lives. Their crave for God was as a result of their craft in the knowledge of the mystery of the will of God for them in life. They could endure anything because of their understanding of the will of God. Nothing fuels faith like the knowledge of the mystery of God’s will for your life. Passion for God is fired up when you come to realize the Mystery of His will for you. Zeal towards God mounts high when you come to terms in knowing the mystery of the will of God your life and destiny. Broken relationships are restored when the people involved come to realize the mystery of the will of God in bringing them together.

Bankruptcy of faith and passion towards God is a result of bankruptcy of knowledge of the mystery of the will of God for your life. Vision transcends obstacles and weakens difficulties to bring about victories, when the bearer has an understanding of the mystery of the will of God for his life. Potentials are given credible expressions and purposes are easily realized when the knowledge of the mystery of His will are accessed and understood. Show me a man, who has abandoned His pursuit for God, I will show you in that man the weight of ignorance of the mystery of the will of God for his life. Show me a man who vacillates in life and appears very confused and incoherent in whatever he does, I will show you in such a man a manifold manifestation of his ignorance of the mystery of the will of God for him.

Abraham survived childlessness when he came into terms with the knowledge of the mystery of the will of God for him. (Genesis 15). The things you survive in life are directly proportional to your level of knowledge of the mystery of the will of God for your life. Your survival in life is predicated upon your assured knowledge of the mystery of the will of God for you. The height of your victories in life and the depth of your roots in God are determined by the capacity of your knowledge in mystery of God’s will for you.

The discovery of mystery leads to the destruction of miseries in life. Your victory over your misery is connected to your knowledge of the mystery of the will of God for your life. As soon as Gideon got the knowledge of the mystery of the will of God for his life, it terminated the years of misery they suffered in the hands of the midianites. (Judges 6). What you can stop in life or terminate in life is dependent on your capacity of knowledge in the mystery of the Will of God for your life.

Your winning is linked to your knowledge of the mystery of God’s will; your victory is connected to your discovery of the mystery of God’s will for you; the reach of your life is dependent upon the how rich your knowledge of the mystery of the will of God for you. The impact of your life is connected to the insight of your knowledge of the mystery of the will of God for you. The wealth of your communications in life is connected to the depth of your knowledge of the mystery of His will for you.
(An excerpt from the Book= “Developing the Endurance Capacity” = By Archbishop Prof. Lawrence Luba)

REMINDER: The discovery of mysteries is the destruction of miseries in life. Your victory over your misery is connected to your knowledge of the mystery of the will of God for your life

ACTION POINTS: Make up your mind to respond to issues of life based on your knowledge of His will for you.

PROPHETIC PRAYER: Father, thank You for Your Word to me today. Thank you for the revelation that the knowledge of your will for my life is key to my ability to develop the endurance capacity. Father, grant unto me insight into the mystery of your will for me. I desire to take actions and respond to issues based on my understanding of your eternal counsel for my life in the Name of Jesus Christ

FOUNTAIN OF LIFE DAILY DEVOTIONAL FRIDAY 20 DECEMBER, 2024

By Archbishop Amb. Prof. NC Lawrence Luba

TOPIC FOR THE DAY: DEVELOPING THE ENDURANCE CAPACITY (PART 5) – BY NOT OBSERVING LYING VANITIES.

BIBLE TEXT FOR TODAY: Jonah 2:8. They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy.

POINT FOR MEDITATION FOR TODAY: What you observe about life from God’s word, determines what you obtain from God for life.

THE MESSAGE: This is PART 5 of the series DEVELOPING THE ENDURANCE CAPACITY. Yesterday in the PART 4, we looked at understanding the dealings of God in your life as one of the ways to develop endurance capacity. We were counseled to always understand God’s direction for our lives and follow it duly.

Today we will look at another way of developing Endurance Capacity which is “by not observing lying vanities”. From the Bible Text for today in Jonah 2:8; it is recorded that they that observe lying vanities forsake their mercies. This implies that it takes the mercies of God to go through odds in life; so, when once you observe lying vanities about any situation in your life, you eventually lose the supply of the mercies of God for you in that situation. This supply of mercies is what could enabled you prevail or overcome the situation.

What then is Lying Vanities? Anything that so draw your attention away from the truth of God's word is a lying vanity. Whatever that could demand your passion and attention away from God and His word is a lying vanity. Anything or situation that presents itself against what is written in scripture is a lying vanity.

Therefore, to observe lying vanities is to permit yourself to be influenced by things happening around you, so as to seduce you to do otherwise instead of standing strong on the word of God. To observe lying vanities is to pay attention on your situation and forgetting the truth about the word of God concerning the situation. It is to believe there is an alternative beside God so much so that God and His word becomes another option. You observe lying vanities when you live and function and take actions based on what is happening in negation to the word of God. Observing lying vanities is paying attention to that situation around you to the point that you magnify your situation above the word of God. In focusing on your situation, you end up belittling and as well minimizing the word of God. Those who do such consequently loses the Mercy of God. When the Israelites magnified their situation above the Testimonies of God, they made themselves vulnerable to God and were destroyed in the wilderness.

Often times your situations seem to be lying to you. This happens when the situation makes you believe that the word of God cannot handle it any more or that you need to act now or take certain actions that are not consistent with the word of God. I have heard people make this statement “you don’t know what I am seeing here”; you don’t know what I have been experiencing here” whatever you seem to be seeing or must have experienced that makes you act against the truth of the word of God is simply put that you have observed a lying vanity. At any time, your situation forces you to take actions that are not in line with the word of God, you have observed a lying vanity.

What you observe about life from the word of God, determines what you obtain from God for life. To keep your gaze on lying vanities is directly equivalent to loosing God's mercy for your life. In other words, to attract God's mercy, keep your attention and focus on the Lord and on Hos word. This also means that your scope of attention on the Lord determines your scores of attractions of His mercies. Likewise, your scope of attention on your situation determines the scores of mercies you eventually lose from the Lord. The more distracted you are by focusing on the wrong things, the more you loose the Mercies of God for your life. Your attention determines your attractions.

To develop an endurance capacity requires that you align your actions on the word of God, not based on what you might be going through or based on what you seem to be seeing where you are. Whatever is happening to you requires that you receive the mercies of God to survive it and this requires that you avoid observing lying vanities. It is very true that the situation might not be palatable but at no time can any situation be too strong for the word of God to handle. Whatever experience you are having that makes you feel that you can act independent of the word of God is a lying vanity.
(An excerpt from the Book= “Developing the Endurance Capacity” = By Archbishop Prof. Lawrence Luba)

REMINDER: What you observe about life from God’s word, determines what you obtain from God for life.

ACTION POINTS: Make a deliberate and conscious effort to keep your attention on God no matter what. Also make a list of scriptures that relates to your situation and keep your attention on those scriptures no matter what.

PROPHETIC PRAYER: Father, thank You for Your Word to me today. Thank you for the revelation that not observing lying vanities helps me to receive the supply of mercies required to survive whatever situation I go through in life. Thank you for the understanding that my scope of attention determines my scores of attractions in life. Father, I refuse to be distracted from you and your Word. I declare that my eyes are fixed on you Oh Lord. I speak to my mind be stationed on the Lord in the Name of Jesus Christ.

FOUNTAIN OF LIFE DAILY DEVOTIONAL MONDAY 16 SEPTEMBER, 2024

By Archbishop Amb. Prof. NC Lawrence Luba

TOPIC FOR TODAY: THE PURPOSE OF REBUKE (PART 13): REBUKE AND PARTAKERS OF GOD’S HOLINESS

BIBLE TEXT FOR TODAY: Hebrews 12:9 - 10 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live? For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.

POINT FOR MEDITATION FOR TODAY: Rebuke helps you to be a Partaker of the Holiness of God.

THE MESSAGE: This is PART 13 of the teaching series “THE PURPOSE OF REBUKE…” Yesterday in PART 12 we studied about “REBUKE AND SOUND FAITH”. It was understood that a genuine rebuke orders your life in perspective towards spiritual consistency and growth.

Today in PART 13, we will look at “REBUKE AND PARTAKERS OF GOD’S HOLINESS”. This is another essence of rebuke especially godly rebukes. It helps the one rebuked to be a Partaker of the Holiness of God. You become participator with the exact nature of God. This is the extent of the power of a godly rebuke. Your acceptance of rebuke helps you to be associated with the sanctity of God.

The Bible Text in Hebrews 12:9 - 10 made it clear that God who is the “Father of all Spirits chastens his children for their benefit. One of such benefits of the rebuke of the Lord is so that you can be a partaker of His Holiness. This is why I earlier said in one of the previous teachings that Rebuke is a divine resource.

The Power of rebuke is that it is a divine system of enhancement of one’s life to the tune of being a partaker of the nature and character of God. This explains why the devil will make many to despise godly rebukes and chastening. It is a system of sanctification and edification for godly purposes. Rebuke distances you from evil and encourages you to focus on repentance and consistent changes that enhances your desire for a right kind of living. To despise rebuke is to forfeit your partaking in God’s Holiness.
(An extract from the Book= “Purpose of Rebuke” = By Archbishop Prof. Lawrence Luba)

REMINDER: Rebuke helps you to be a Partaker of the Holiness of God.

ACTION POINTS: Don’t despise rebukes.

PROPHETIC PRAYER: Father, thank you for this teaching today. Thank you for the revelation that rebuke helps me to be a Partaker of Your Holiness. Father, help me not to despise rebukes, so that I can partake in your nature and character in the name of Jesus Christ.

ALTAR CALL: If you have not yet received Jesus Christ in your life, this is an opportunity for you to do so. Please say this prayer:
Father, I acknowledge my sins and I ask for forgiveness and mercy. I declare that Jesus Christ is Lord and I receive Him into my life today. Thank you, Father in the Name of Jesus Christ.

FOUNTAIN OF LIFE DAILY DEVOTIONAL SUNDAY 1 SEPTEMBER, 2024

By Archbishop Amb. Prof. NC Lawrence Luba

TOPIC FOR TODAY: THE PURPOSE OF REBUKE (PART 1): UNDERSTANDING REBUKE

BIBLE TEXT FOR TODAY: Titus 1:13 This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith;

POINT FOR MEDITATION FOR TODAY: Rebuke is an act of godly dispositioning to engender correction and functional living.

THE MESSAGE: By the Grace of God, as we enter the New Month, the Lord is leading us towards a New Teaching series on “THE PURPOSE OF REBUKE…” One very unfortunate amongst Christians today is the inability to endure Rebuke. Often times, many believers take rebuke too personal to the point that they can keep malice. Some gets offended when rebuked over brazen issues of their character. This teaching series is geared towards helping you to understand what a rebuke is, the scriptural intent about Rebuke, how to rebuke someone etc.

Today in PART 1, we will study UNDERSTANDING REBUKE. What you don’t know you can’t show. Understanding Rebuke will help you to see the disposition of the scriptures about it and how to benefit from it. A good understanding makes you outstanding in life and a good understanding increases your productivity in life. Rebuke is part of our Christian responsibilities both to rebuke others and to be rebuked by others. Rebuke is not an act of wickedness or punishment; rather, it is an act of godly dispositioning to engender correction and functional living. It is not a proof of superiority on the part of the one delivery it neither is it a show of inferiority on the part of the one being rebuked. It is that part of God and of the scriptures that calls you to order in order to live right.

The Bible Text for today in Titus 1:13, gave an accurate purpose for rebuke. It says “…Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith.” The soundness of faith is the guiding purpose of rebuke. So a rebuke is:
1. A correction or reproof: A verbal or non-verbal expression of disapproval or criticism, intended to correct or improve behavior.
2. A warning or admonition: A statement or gesture that cautions against wrongdoing or encourages better actions.
3. A form of discipline: A way to address and correct mistakes, often used in religious or spiritual contexts.
4. A call to repentance: An invitation to recognize and turn away from sin or error.
5. A demonstration of love and concern: A rebuke can be a tough but loving way to help someone see their mistakes and grow.

In the Bible, rebuke is often associated with:
1. God's correction and guidance. (Proverbs 3:11-12, Hebrews 12:5-6)
2. Jesus' teachings and interactions. (Matthew 16:22-23, Mark 8:33)
3. Apostolic ministry and church discipline. (1 Timothy 5:20, 2 Timothy 4:2)
(An extract from the Book= “Purpose of Rebuke” = By Archbishop Prof. Lawrence Luba)

REMINDER: Rebuke is an act of godly dispositioning to engender correction and functional living.

ACTION POINTS: be positive about rebuke and being rebuked.

PROPHETIC PRAYER: Father, thank you for this teaching today. Thank you for the revelation that Rebuke is an act of godly dispositioning to engender correction and functional living. Father, I receive grace to be positive about rebuke and being rebuked in the name of Jesus Christ.

ALTAR CALL: If you have not yet received Jesus Christ in your life, this is an opportunity for you to do so. Please say this prayer:
Father, I acknowledge my sins and I ask for forgiveness and mercy. I declare that Jesus Christ is Lord and I receive Him into my life today. Thank you, Father in the Name of Jesus Christ.
