DAILY BALM DEVOTIONAL
MISSION STATEMENT: To help believers find peace in the midst of storms- Jeremiah 8: 22.
DATE: Sunday 3rd October, 2021.
TOPIC: The Master is on His way!( PART 1 ).
MESSENGER: John Femi Olarewaju.
TEXT: John 11: 1-11.
MESSAGE:
This entire event that took place in the eleventh chapter of the gospel according to saint John is a case of SORROW TURNED JOY. It is truly a story of TRAGEDY BECOMING COMEDY or, a tale of WOE turning to a tale of PRAISE.
My beloved, as we commence a new series in our DAILY DEVOTIONAL( The DAILY BALM ), I hereby decree and declare that, as a redeemed child of God, every tale of sorrow and woe trailing you and your household be translated to an era of unstoppable celebrations, in Jesus' Name.
In our main text, Lazarus and his two sisters, Mary and Martha were bosom friends of our Lord Jesus Christ. They loved Him so much that any time He was in Bethany, their home was His residence.
Beloved, may God grant you the grace to be so fond of Christ that you place ALL THAT YOU ARE, ALL THAT YOU WILL EVER BE, ALL THAT YOU HAVE and ALL THAT YOU WILL EVER HAVE at His feet, in Jesus' Name.
The truth is that, when you make room for Jesus Christ in your life, He becomes your permanent Guest!
Tell me, can you have Jesus Christ as your permanent guest in your life and home and still have the devil and his agents lurking around your life, your home or your endeavours? Can you have the great Warrior as a permanent Guest in your life and still fear earthly battles and foes? Certainly not!
Just like Lazarus and his sisters, Mary and Martha, I encourage you to make a room for Jesus Christ in your heart, accepting Him as your personal Lord and Saviour( if you have not done so ) and committing the totality of your life into His mighty hand. Beloved, this truly was the best decision Lazarus and his sisters ever made and this is the best decision you can ever make in life.
My dear, if you have not yet made such a decision, go ahead and make it and you will be happy you did! Cheers! I love you.
( To be continued in part 2 of this message).

"Heavenly Father, I come before your throne of mercy right now as a sinner, asking for your forgiveness. I hereby accept your Son, Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour. Thank you Father for saving me. In Jesus' Name I pray."
