Daily Fountain 2017 - Walking With God

Thursday May 11

Bible Reading: Gen. 5: 21 - 32

Topic: Walking With God

In today's passage, verse 2 says that Enoch walked with God and God took him straight to heaven without his dying.

This shows that Enoch was very intimate with God.

Walking with God means living for God, obeying God in all things, loving what God loves.

Sometimes we claim to love God and yet refuse to do His Will.

Walking with God also involves identifying with God in all circumstances - both in good times and bad.

There are some who claim to be Christians but only display their Christianity on Sundays during the Church service; however on other days, in their work places, market places, clubs and other businesses, they live as those who don't truly know God.

Their lives exhibit all forms of ungodly behaviour as Paul listed in Gal. 5: 19 - 21

Paul enjoins us to walk in the Spirit so that we will not exhibit those ungodly traits.

If we obey his injunctions, we will bear the fruits of the Spirit - joy, love, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness and self-control.

The Beauty of Jesus will be seen in our lives to the Glory of God.

Prayer:

Father in Heaven, please help me to walk in step with the Spirit, so that my life will please You and I may live in constant communion with You, Amen

Memory Verse: Gen. 5: 24

"And Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him"

Daily Fountain 2017 - It Is To Your Advantage

Sunday May 21 5th Sunday After Easter Bible Reading: John 16: 5 - 22 Topic: It Is To Your Advantage In life we must be ready to endure some level of discomfort in the present, in order to enjoy comfort in the future. The disciples had become comfortable with the presence and involvement of Jesus in their lives, but Jesus announced to them that it was necessary for Him to return to His Father in order that the Holy Ghost might come. If Jesus stayed, He would be only in one place at a time; but His Spirit would be everywhere at the same time. The disciples had to recognize therefore that growth and maturity come with sacrifice which involves willingness to step out of our comfort zone. God knows the best for you. Be sensitive to the leading of His Spirit. Desire progress but don't reject the change that brings it. Yes, you may be in an uncomfortable situation now, but God uses it to work out His purposes fo

God Is Not A Partial God

God Is Not A Partial God I want to say something to someone today and that is the title of this message - God is not a partial God. Every day that the Sun rises, it does not rise for certain people that God loves more than others, it rises for all (including even those who don't believe in the existence of God) Every night that the Moon shines, it does not shine for a select group of persons who God loves most, it shines for all irrespective of their religious affiliations including those who have no religion. The 4 seasons happen for all inhabitants of the earth - there is no discrimination. Life happens to all irrespective of our belief system. Good things happen to bad people and bad things happen to good people. Evil people prosper as much if not much more than good hearted people - Is that God's doing? You see, whenever you see someone doing something exceptional, something extraordinary it is not about luck, it is not about favour, it's not ev
