DCLM Daily Manna Friday 28 April 2023 TOPIC: Contending With Persecution TEXT:  Jeremiah 20:7-18 (KJV) KEY VERSE: “Then I said, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name. But his word was in mine heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary with forbearing, and I could not stay.”  (Jeremiah 20:9) DCLM Daily Manna Friday 28 April 2023 MESSAGE Billy Graham, the late evangelist of repute, once said, “Persecution is one of the natural consequences of living the Christian life. It is to the Christian what ‘growing pains’ are to the growing child. No pain, no development. No suffering, no glory. No struggle, no victory. No persecution, no reward”. Jeremiah recounted his feeling of disappointment and depression following the opposition and persecution he had received for declaring the word of the Lord. Instead of obeying and responding to the prophecies he gave, he had been mocked, derided and even imprisoned. The worst was the opposition he receive

He also said in Matthew 5:14, “Ye are the light of the world.A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid” . If you are a child of God, it means you are qualified to be called light. Jesus went further to say, “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven”(Matthew 5:16). Everything God does, He does excellently. It means His shining is extraordinary. He wants you also to shine extraordinarily. God wants you to shine like Joseph did. In Genesis 41:1-44, when Joseph gave the interpretations of Pharaoh’s dreams, the latter said, “We cannot find

If not John 3:16 will introduce Him to you. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

Matthew 5:16 READ: Mark 16:15-18 15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. 17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

DCLM Daily Manna Wednesday 26 April 2023 – Counsel Against Hypocrisy

Image
DCLM Daily Manna Wednesday 26 April 2023 TOPIC:  Counsel Against Hypocrisy TEXT: Mark 12:35-44 (KJV) KEY VERSE “And he said unto them in his doctrine, Beware of the scribes, which love to go in long clothing, and love salutations in the marketplaces.” (Mark 12:38) DCLM Daily Manna Wednesday 26 April 2023 MESSAGE The Master’s counsel to His disciples against the leaven of Pharisaic hypocrisy is noteworthy. Jesus knew clearly how damaging hypocrisy and its practice can be in the life of God-seeking believers. In every encounter the Master had with the scribes and Pharisees, He would warn His disciples to distance themselves from the views of these adversaries of Christ. Such expressions as ‘beware…’, ‘take heed to yourselves…’, are reflective of the warnings to avoid both the teaching and practice of the hypocrites. Hypocrisy or duplicity is a self-deluding sin. It defiles, demeans and devalues a soul before God. It is a tool in the hands of Satan to make

PETRINA PACHECO RELEASES 'BE THE LIGHT'

Christian singer-songwriter Petrina Pacheco is set to release her latest single "Be the Light" on Christian radio today. The song, co-written by Pacheco and John Chisum, is produced by Chris Springer for iNOV8 Productions, Inc. and will be available on Christian AC and Christian Country radio formats. "Be the Light" is a powerful reminder for Christians to shine their light in the midst of darkness, just as Jesus commanded in Matthew 5:16. Pacheco's personal journey of overcoming depression, addiction, and suicidal thoughts serves as the inspiration behind the song. She hopes that "Be the Light" will offer hope and comfort to listeners during these challenging times. Pacheco's soulful vocals, combined with the catchy melody and uplifting lyrics, make "Be the Light" a standout track.

Open Heaven Daily Devotional 26 April 2023  TOPIC: Who Is Your Head? MEMORISE: “And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.”  Colossians 1:18 (KJV) READ: Ephesians 4:1-12 (KJV) 4 I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, 2 With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; 3 Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. 4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; 5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. 7 But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ. 8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men. 9 (Now that he ascended, what is it but th

DCLM Daily Manna Tuesday 25 April 2023 – Divine Judgment Against Sin

Image
DCLM Daily Manna Tuesday 25 April 2023  TOPIC:  Divine Judgment Against Sin TEXT:  Genesis 20:1-18 (KJV) KEY VERSE: “For the LORD had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah Abraham’s wife.” (Genesis 20:18) DCLM Daily Manna Tuesday 25 April 2023 MESSAGE The late Southern Baptist evangelist, R.G. Lee, had a message he often preached entitled “Pay-day some-day”. The thrust of the message was that you may live a life of sin and appear to be getting away with it but judgment is sure to come, whether in this life or in eternity. In our text, there is a new dimension to God’s judgment for erring sinners. Even when sin is committed ignorantly, there is need to make amends immediately one comes under conviction. Failure to repent attracts the judgment of God. Abimelech, king of Gerar took Sarah, Abraham’s wife when it was thought she was Abraham’s sister. However, in a dream, God demanded that she be returned to her husband. Abimelech justified his acti

MFM Daily Devotional 25 April 2023  TOPIC:  Christ Jesus, Our Propitiation MEMORY VERSE Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God. Romans 3:25 MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE: God wants the best for us, we can only receive God’s best through obedience to his will. PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY: The death of Jesus Christ will not be in vain over your life, in the name of Jesus. FIRE SCRIPTURE: 1 John 2:2-6 BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Chronicles 5 – 7; Matthew 19-20 MFM Daily Devotional 25 April 2023 MESSAGE Propitiation carries the idea of complete covering of our sins and complete satisfaction for our offenses. Generally, we know that our laws clearly states that certain crimes are to be punished with certain penalties. When one of the laws is broken, we have a system that requires a vindication for the crime committed. We call it justice. God’s justice is the same, onl

Open Heaven Daily Devotional 25 April 2023 TOPIC: More Than Anointing MEMORIZE: Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.  Psalm 23:5 BIBLE READING PSALMS 45:7-8 7 Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. 8 All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of the ivory palaces, whereby they have made thee glad. Open Heaven Daily Devotional 25 April 2023 MESSAGE When it comes to anointing, God is so generous that He gives it in abundance. He anointed David in the presence of his brethren in (1 Samuel 16:13), again as king over Judah in (2 Samuel 2:4) and yet again as king over the whole of Israel in (2 Samuel 5:3). God just kept on pouring the anointing on him. In Acts 19:11-12, the Bible says He so anointed Paul that his handkerchiefs were healing the sick. In Acts 5:15, He so anointed Peter th

MFM Daily Devotional 24 April 2023  TOPIC:  Applying the Blood of Jesus MEMORY VERSE And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt. Exodus 12:13 MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE: There is no sin that the blood of Jesus cannot cleanse. It will wash away your past and open up your future. PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY: The blood of Jesus, which speaks better things than the blood of Abel, will speak on your behalf wherever you go, in the name of Jesus. FIRE SCRIPTURE: 1 Corinthians 5:7-8 BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:1 Chronicles 2-4; Matthew 17-18 MFM Daily Devotional 24 April 2023  MESSAGE In the Old Testament, we read about the people of Israel who were in bondage in Egypt King Pharaoh’s heart was hardened against God’s children.

Open Heaven Daily Devotional 24 April 2023 TOPIC: More than Victory MEMORISE: Romans 8:37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. READ: 2 Chronicles 20:1-25 BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 Kings 17-18 Open Heaven Daily Devotional 24 April 2023 MESSAGE God is so generous that when He wants to give you victory, He makes you more than a conqueror (Romans 8:37). He doesn’t just give you victory, He gives it abundantly. David said in Psalm 23:5 that God did not only give him victory over his enemies, He also prepared a table for him right in their presence. Now that is a different level of victory. In our Bible reading for today, three kings came against Jehoshaphat, but God used them to destroy one another and then all their wealth was transferred to Jehoshaphat. Without fighting at all, Jehoshaphat and his people enjoyed victory and gained so much spoil that it took three days to transport it all to their country. This is in line with God’s promise i

DCLM Daily Manna Monday 24 April 2023  TOPIC:  Destiny Changing Faith and Prayer TEXT:  Genesis 32:21-32 (KJV) KEY VERSE: “And Jacob was left alone, and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day.” (Genesis 32:24) DCLM Daily Manna Monday 24 April 2023 MESSAGE It was Smith Wigglesworth who said: “Great faith is the product of great fights. Great testimonies are the outcome of great tests. Great triumphs can only come out of great trials”. From our text, the gloom, horror and disaster that loomed over Jacob and his household finally brought him to the place of prayers. He was as desperate as he was importunate. During the period this famous prayer lasted, an angel of God wrestled with Jacob. The angel said, “Let me go, for the day breaketh”. Jacob then requested and got a blessing before the angel left. From further details provided in Hosea 12:3,4, Jacob did not win the contest through any physical power or strength he possessed; rather, his plea for mercy and d

Isaiah 53:4 MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE: The Lord Jesus Christ offered up himself a sacrifice which was perfect for the remission of my sin. PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY: The death of Jesus on the cross will not be a waste in your life, in the name of Jesus. FIRE SCRIPTURE: Isaiah 53:1-12 BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 Kings 24 – 25; 1 Chronicles 1; Matthew 15-16 MFM Daily Devotional 23 April 2023 MESSAGE We are all sinners, but Christ died in our place. Jesus Christ was despised and rejected by men, He was a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. He was despised. The Jews were expecting a messiah they were expecting someone like David who was famous for killing Goliath. However, Jesus Christ did not meet their expectations for a messiah. His suffering for us was misunderstood. On the day of

DCLM Daily Manna Sunday 23 April 2023  TOPIC:  Pyrrhic Victory TEXT  2 Chronicles 16:1-14 (KJV) KEY VERSE: “Then Asa the king took all Judah; and they carried away the stones of Ramah, and the timber thereof, wherewith Baasha was building; and he built therewith Geba and Mizpah.” (2 Chronicles 16:6) DCLM Daily Manna Sunday 23 April 2023 MESSAGE Merriam-Webster dictionary defines Pyrrhic victory as “a victory that is not worth winning because so much is lost to achieve it”. The word comes from the name of Pyrrhus, a long-ago king of Epirus, who suffered heavy losses in defeating the Romans at Asculum in Apulia in 279 BC. A pyrrhic victory then is actually a defeat in the end. Such was the experience of Asa the king of Judah who went into an alliance with Benhadad, the king of Syria, to fight Baasha, the king of Israel. With the assistance of the Syrian king, Asa won the battle over Israel. However, God was not happy that he sought human help when he could have called on the Lord

Open Heaven Daily Devotional 23 April 2023 TOPIC: More than Fruitfulness MEMORISE: Be careful for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.  Philippians 4:6 READ: Psalm 67:5-6 5 Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee. 6 Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us. Open Heaven Daily Devotional 23 April 2023 MESSAGE My God is so generous that when He wants to make the barren fruitful, He gives them multiple babies. If you don’t believe me, ask Hannah. In 1 Samuel 2:21, Hannah asked for just one boy and even promised to give him back to God, but the Lord gave her the boy she asked for and five more children! I have good news for at least one woman who has been labelled barren: In nine months’ time, you will be carrying your twins, in Jesus’ name.

MFM Daily Devotional 22 April 2023 TOPIC: Fear Not (VI) MEMORY VERSE Then Jacob was greatly afraid and distressed and he divided the people with him and the flock and herbs and the camels into two bands. Genesis 32:7 MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:  Fear can only stop you if you allow it. PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY: All the good things you have lost because of fear, receive them back now, in the name of Jesus. FIRE SCRIPTURE: Matthew 27:57-60 BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 Kings 21-23; Matthew 13-14 MFM Daily Devotional 22 April 2023 MESSAGE Fear has the capacity to torment to death. It destroys, but it delights the enemy. Fear degrades God and makes the giant look bigger than he is. The fear of Goliath tormented the army of Israel for days before God sent a deliverer in the person of David, who feared no enemy but had his trust and faith in God who is able to deliverer to the uttermost (1Samuel 17:4-11). In Gen.12:10-13, we read about Abraham who, out of fear, asked Sarai to tell a half-truth by

READ: Jeremiah 17:7-8 7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is. 8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit. Open Heaven Daily Devotional 22 April 2023 MESSAGE Our God is very generous. When He decides to bless, He does so abundantly. For example, when the wedding hosts ran out of wine for their guests, Jesus gave them much better wine in abundance (John 2:1-11). Psalm 68:19 says, “Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation.Selah.” In Deuteronomy 28:1-2, He talks about great blessings– blessing so great that

God reserves the right to assign His children to any task He chooses at any time He wishes. Like a good Father, He ensures that all His children are adequately engaged in His work. Philip was such an obedient son who joyfully carried out the Father’s will concerning evangelism. Philip had been seriously involved in the revival in Samaria. Sinners were getting converted and lives were being transformed. Then God sent an angel to draft him for a special assignment. He was to go and meet a man of Ethiopia, an officer of Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, who was in charge of her treasury, and had come to worship in Jerusalem. Philip immediately left everything and went in o

Matthew 6:34 MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE: The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom. PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY: Be not dismayed. God will take care of you. FIRE SCRIPTURE: Matt 6:25-34 BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 Kings 18-20; Matthew 11-12 MFM Daily Devotional 21 April 2023 MESSAGE The biggest and the most dangerous fear you must avoid is the fear of the unknown or fear of uncertainty.

DCLM Daily Manna Friday 21 April 2023  TOPIC:  Sin No More Text:  John 8:1-11 (KJV) Jesus went unto the mount of Olives. 2 And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them. 3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst, 4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act. 5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou? 6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not. 7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her. 8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground. 9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, begin

Isaiah 49:25 READ: 2 Kings 4:1-7 Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets unto Elisha, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest that thy servant did fear the Lord: and the creditor is come to take unto him my two sons to be bondmen. 2 And Elisha said unto her, What shall I do for thee? tell me, what hast thou in the house? And she said, Thine handmaid hath not any thing in the house, save a pot of oil. 3 Then he said, Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbours, even empty vessels; borrow not a few. 4 And when thou art come in, thou shalt shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons, and shalt pour out into all those vessels, and thou sh
