Bible Reading: Mark 10:27, Matthew 19:26
Memory Verse: The LORD said: Samuel, I am going to do something in Israel that will shock everyone who hears about it! 1 Samuel 3:11 (CEV)
Be inspired:
1. On teenagers: Directionless teens walk the night streets where the only people who intervene are those with a lust to further exploit their loneliness – RM Harrington.
2. On trusting God (1): When you get to a point in life when you no longer understand God’s methods, remember to trust in His integrity.
3. On trusting God (2): Sometimes in life you don’t know where you are going but make sure you know who you are following.
4. On process: There is always a process before the promise because God does not raise emergency superstars.
5. On hope (1): H.O.P.E. means Hold On Pain Ends. It is in the test of fire that testifiers are raised. Suicide is never an option.
6. On hope (2): There is no champion without a challenge. The weight of your glory is determined by the size of your problem. Keep hope alive. If you prioritise your expectations above your experience, you will soon experience your expectations. This too shall pass.
7. On perspective: Your suffering does not mean that God has forgotten you. When you think you are buried, God thinks you are planted. Your predicament is not necessarily your fault, it is the Oil upon your head trying to find expression.
8. On intimacy/self-denial: Pay the price no matter how high the cost. No one seeking to know God intimately refuses to pay the price of self-denial. The more you know God intimately, the more you lose self.
9. On satanic attack: Any area of your life that Satan is attacking is an indication that Satan is afraid of what you are capable of becoming in that area.
10. On taking action (1): Do it scared. Do it broke. Do it alone. Do it unsure, but do it anyways.
11. On the Word of God: An attack on your word study life is an attack on your destiny. You will have to invest through discipline and responsibility – Apostle Joshua Selman
12. On taking action (2): One step in the right direction is better than a hundred years of thinking about it – T. Harv Eker.
13. On pity party: Stop making people understand the situation to the point of pitying you. We are not to be pitied.
Prophetic Decree: That special testimony you have been waiting for shall manifest today by fire, in Jesus name.
