*SUNDAY, 25TH OCTOBER, 2020*

*TEXT: PROVERBS 7:10-27*

10. _Then out came a woman to meet him, dressed like a pr******te and with crafty intent._
11. _(She is unruly and defiant, her feet never stay at home;_
12. _now in the street, now in the squares, at every corner she lurks.)_
13. _She took hold of him and kissed him and with a brazen face she said:_
14. _“Today I fulfilled my vows, and I have food from my fellowship offering at home._
15. _So I came out to meet you; I looked for you and have found you!_
16. _I have covered my bed with colored linens from Egypt._
17. _I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes and cinnamon._
18. _Come, let’s drink deeply of love till morning; let’s enjoy ourselves with love!_
19. _My husband is not at home; he has gone on a long journey._
20. _He took his purse filled with money and will not be home till full moon.”_
21. _With persuasive words she led him astray; she seduced him with her smooth talk._
22. _All at once he followed her like an ox going to the slaughter, like a deer stepping into a noose_
23. _till an arrow pierces his liver, like a bird darting into a snare, little knowing it will cost him his life._
24. _Now then, my sons, listen to me; pay attention to what I say._
25. _Do not let your heart turn to her ways or stray into her paths._
26. _Many are the victims she has brought down; her slain are a mighty throng._
27. _Her house is a highway to the grave, leading down to the chambers of death._

*TOPIC: ENDING IN THE GRAVE*

We learned yesterday that having unlawful affairs with a woman of loose moral can make one miserable. Today's text further reiterates that interacting with such women has a devastating effect. They are crafty in their dealings and the simple easily fail into their traps. Yielding to her enticement, you are on a sure way to the slaughter, for her house is a high way to the grave; leading down to the chambers of death. How many highly placed and young men have fallen into her trap and were sent early to the grave? Do you take delight in extramarital affairs? Do you have a "sugar daddy" or "mummy"? Be faithful to your God. Be wise and do not give in to her seductions or you will end up in the grave and hell!

*REFLECTION:* _"For the lips of an adulterous drip honey...in the end...bitter as gall...". (Proverbs 5:3-4)._

*PRAYER:* _Deliver me Lord, from people of loose morals. Amen._

*FCS DAILY GUIDE 2020*
DATE: THURSDAY 13, AUGUST, 2020
TOPIC: *GOD TO THE RESCUE!*
*Q. 1*: What does the passage teach about God the Father, or God the Son or God the Holy Spirit?
*Q. 2*: Is there any example for me to follow or not to follow?
*Q. 7*: What truth is God revealing to me in this passage?

BIBLE PASSAGE: ACTS 7: *30- 43*
30 And when forty years were expired, there appeared to him in the wilderness of mount Sina an angel of the Lord in a flame of fire in a bush.
31 When Moses saw it, he wondered at the sight: and as he drew near to behold it, the voice of the Lord came unto him,
32 Saying, I am the God of thy fathers, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. Then Moses trembled, and durst not behold.
33 Then said the Lord to him, Put off thy shoes from thy feet: for the place where thou standest is holy ground.
34 I have seen, I have seen the affliction of my people which is in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning, and am come down to deliver them. And now come, I will send thee into Egypt.
35 This Moses whom they refused, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge? the same did God send to be a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel which appeared to him in the bush.
36 He brought them out, after that he had shewed wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red sea, and in the wilderness forty years.
37 This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear.
38 This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and with our fathers: who received the lively oracles to give unto us:
39 To whom our fathers would not obey, but thrust him from them, and in their hearts turned back again into Egypt,
40 Saying unto Aaron, Make us gods to go before us: for as for this Moses, which brought us out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.
41 And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice unto the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands.
42 Then God turned, and gave them up to worship the host of heaven; as it is written in the book of the prophets, O ye house of Israel, have ye offered to me slain beasts and sacrifices by the space of forty years in the wilderness?
43 Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them: and I will carry you away beyond Babylon.

*COMMENTARY*:
When it was time for God to deliver his people, notice what he told Moses in v.34. To what attribute of God does this point (Psalm 46:1)? Psalm 50:14, 15 confirms God's ever-readiness to help us, but with an important condition. Whenever we face rejection because of our faith or mission like Moses, what consolation can we draw from vs.35, 36 and Matthew 21:42? Stephen reminded the council of the covenant God established between the Jewish nation and himself, a covenant whose continued validity depended on their obedience (v.37). It is empty religion to boast about being God's children while continuously disobeying him. Only those who hold on to Jesus' teaching are truly his disciples (John 8:31). Since they wouldn't obey God, their condition became similar to what Paul describes in Romans 1:26-28. The Jewish leaders had not only rejected God, they also rejected his Son, thus missing out on the salvation God brought to his people—not through Moses but through his only begotten Son, Jesus. To reject Jesus is to reject life, for in him is life, which is the light for all mankind (John 1:4).

*PRAYER*: Lord, let all people of the world realise that it is only through Jesus that we can be rescued from slavery.

About 10% of the old nation of Egypt are Christians. Pray for the remaining 90Million people to know Christ.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: *ISAIAH 52- 54*

NO WRONG IDENTITY : OUR TODAY'S DEVOTIONAL

“And Elijah said unto them, Take the prophets of Baal...” (1 Kings 18: 40)

That is the Focal Scripture of the Nehemiah Generation in Nasarawa State Devotional today.

In Old Testament times, when some community began to worship Baal, their names gradually began to change and have Baal attached to it. Judges 3 vs. 3 speaks of Baalhermon; Joshua 11 vs. 17 speaks of Baalgad; 2 Kings 1 vs. 2 speaks of Baalzebub. As these communities worshipped Baal, Baal was attached to their name. There was a dilution of their original names; there was a creation of a satanic identity.

Today, every Wrong identity the enemy has erected in your life, I pull it down. Every negative attachment the devil has introduced into your life, I command the fire of God to separate you from it; every strange spirit that is introducing strange things in your life, let the fire of God send it away from your destiny; every messenger from the pit of hell that wants to destroy or dilute your identity, let fire answer.

I separate you from everything that is not meant to be in your life; I separate you from everything the enemy introduced to make a mess of your destiny; I separate you from every satanic introduction into your life.

No longer shall the enemy have his signature on your identity. No longer shall your life be an advertisement for Satan. No longer shall it be said that you received what is contrary to your God-given identity. You shall not have what Christ has not given you; and you shall not lose what Christ has given you.

Your identity is in Christ; and if God be for you, then there can never be any wrong identity around you.

Ephesians 2: 10 says: “For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works...”

Prayers: My identity is in Christ; no more negative identity, in Jesus’ name!

May the blessings of God & His peace be sufficient to us all in Jesus' name, Amen.
