TOPIC: DESTINY DESTROYERS II MEMORISE:  And he said unto them, take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth. Luke 12:15 READ : John 12:3-6 & Matthew 26:14-16  3 Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment. 4 Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, which should betray him, 5 Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor? 6 This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein. Matthew 26:14-16  14 Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief priests, 15 And said unto them, What will ye give me, and I will deliver him unto you? And they covenanted with him for thirty pieces of silver. 16 And from that time he sought oppo

WHEN IT IS TIME Monday April 2

Open Heavens Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye
Memorise: While it is said, Today if ye will hear His voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation. Hebrew 3:15
Read: 2 Corinthians 6:1-2.
In life God has a time for everything. Even when it appears He is not following your timetable, be rest assured that His timetable for your life is far better than yours. When the day comes for you to fulfill your destiny, fire will fall. When your day of favour has fully come, it will not pass you by. Even when Moses seemed to have forgotten his call, at the time appointed for him to key into his destiny, the bush burned. For you the fire will fall. God’s timing is always perfect.
For he saith, l have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have l succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation. 2 Corinthians 6:2.
When God says it is now time as He has said concerning your salvation (if you are not yet born again), delay is dangerous. A delay of 24 hours or even an hour can be costly. When God says it is time, it means there is no more space for procrastination. No more playing around when it is time. God expects you to do exactly what He has instructed you to. Is God urging you to pray? Do so. Don’t delay. God does not wait for anyone. Just imagine what would have happened if peter had gone to the rest room when the fire of the Spirit fell on those at the upper room; he could have been left out! If anything, although his change did not eventually come through the pool, yet, the man at the pool of Bethesda waited by the pool until his change came through Jesus. Today, many people miss God’s intervention in their lives for failing to know their time. Even in church, instead of listening attentively to the Word, some engage in useless discussions. Ideally, you are not supposed to be talking to someone when the Word of God is being preached. Where then is your reverence for God? Even ministers of God are guilty of this. If during sermon you have an urgent message to pass through to someone, write it on a piece of paper and send it through the ushers to the fellow. Your rapt attention is needed to prevent you from missing God
KEY POINT:
When it is your time, every second counts. Some have missed the word sent to meet their need due to seconds of distraction. Be wise!
Bible in one year: Isaiah 28-30

TOPIC:  FRIENDS STRONGER THAN BROTHERS MEMORISE:  A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother. Proverbs 18:24 READ: 1 Samuel 18:1-4   1 And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking unto Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of  2 David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul. And Saul took him that day, and would let him go no more home to his father's house. 3 Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul. 4 And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was upon him, and gave it to David, and his garments, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle. MESSAGE Friendship is a a very sensitive topic to discuss, especially in these last days when many have become lovers of themselves (2 Timothy 3:1-2). In spite of of this, however, everybody still needs good friends. Some friends can be closer to you than a brother-you need one or two of such friends

TOPIC: THE SNARE OF THE FOWLER 4 MEMORISE:  All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any. 1 Corinthians 6:12 READ: Bible Reading Romans 6:1-23 1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? 3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? 4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. 5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: 6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. 7 For he that is dead is freed from sin. 8 Now if we be dead with

TOPIC:  IT SHALL BE WELL VI MEMORISE:  Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more lest a Worse thing come unto thee. John 5:14 READ: John 5:1-14   1 After this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 2 Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches. 3 In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water. 4 For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever disease he had. 5 And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years. 6 When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole? 7 The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled,
