TODAY’S WORD
It is not the will of God for His children to stand still or to remain on the same spot for long years. He desire that they should proceed, progress and proper. A lot of people today tend to resort to fate and continue to move round a circle without making any tangible or spontaneous progress. They could rather have taken a giant step of faith by launching into an onward journey that will land them unto a successful end.
There is no victory, success or excellence standing still, but if one can dare take up the challenge to step up a little bit either spiritually or academically, one will see that the sky will not be the limit but rather the starting point.
TODAY’S PRAYER
LORD, I reject the spirit and the power of stagnation and I receive the power to progress and prosper in life.

TODAY’S WORD
Nothing is of itself sufficient with the exception of God who is sufficient. By and large, you need the help of somebody in one area or the other. As we seek for help from men, many are times; we are faced with disappointment and frustration. This to teach us a lesson that we should cease from putting our trust in man whose breath is in his nostrils. God almighty is the only one who cannot fail. He does not fail in power, strength, support, assurance, help and aid. Trust Him for spiritual, physical, academicals, financial and many more. He is a friend who sticks closer than a brother; He will surely come and help you.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Lord, send help to me from on high throughout this year.
GOD; My Refuge and Security
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
“He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most high shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty”
Psalm 91: 1-2
TODAY’S WORD
One of the major challenges facing the world today is insecurity. It could be in the area of lives, properties, job and the likes. More often than not, people are searching for defense, refuge and security here and there but all to no avail. Sometimes, people tend to depend on government but the simple reality is that government itself is in need of security. The psalmist understood this and acknowledges that safety and refuge cannot be secured but only from God.
Eternal God is the only rock that can never fail. The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run into and are safe. Come to Him today and you will surely find rest for your soul.
TODAY’S PRAYER
LORD, be my refuge and security from henceforth and throughout my entire life.

TODAY’S WORD
Success is not measured by the size of your wealth and riches, academic accomplishment, longevity of life or popularity or fame, but it means the ability to discover and fulfill why God has created you in life. You are on your way to success immediately you take a bold step to discover the reason or purpose why God created and you passionately pursue it. How will that be possible when you are not in partnership with God? Can two walk together except they be in agreement? (Amos 3:3). You can only do that by willingly surrendering your life to Jesus Christ today.
As you do that, he will reveal Himself to you, He will guide and lead you on the right path and give your destiny a meaningful direction and after all He will take you to a heaven of rest.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Lord open my eyes that I may discover and pursue and fulfill your purpose for my life.
Virtue of Humility
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
‘’God resisteth the proud, and give to the humble”
1 Peter 5: 5c

TODAY’S WORD
The beauty of Christianity is reflected in humility. It is a virtue expected to be demonstrated by genuinely converted believer. Whatsoever you may possess, whatever you might have achieved in life and whatsoever position you may find yourself let the totality of the glory be attributed unto God and not unto yourself. The bible says a man nothing except it be given him from above. All that we have in life are given through divine providence from God. Our actions, words, conducts and comportment should and must be characterized by lowliness of heart and humble spirit.
Pride is of the from the devil but humility comes from God. Pride leads to destruction and downfall but humility leads to exaltation and honour.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Lord always give me the grace to be humble in all areas of my life and deliver me from the spirit of pride.
