Daily Fountain 2017 - 1610 - The Riches Of God Made Manifest




Monday October 16

Bible Reading:     Rom. 11: 25 - 36
Topic:                  The Riches Of God Made Manifest

Beloved, have you ever considered the depth of God's love towards you that you were not consumed by life's challenges?

Can anyone measure the wonders of God in the affairs of men?


Who made the heavens and the earth and everything in them? (Gen 1)
Who breathed into man's nostrils the breath of life that he may live? (Gen. 2: 5, 6)

Did Israel not cross the red sea on dry ground? (Ex. 14)
Was it not because of love that God sent His Son Jesus to die that we may live? (John 3: 16)
Has He not returned to His Father's House to prepare a place for us that we may reign with Him in Eternal Glory? (John 14)
Are these biblical truths not the riches of God made manifest to man?

What have you lost in life?
A relationship?
A marriage?
A family member?
A home?

A friend?
A colleague?
A dream?

A part of your body?
Have you lost hope?
Do you think you have nothing more to prove or live for?

Perhaps you have failed God

There is good news; the Scripture says, "Those who sow in tears, shall reap in joy" (Ps. 126: 5)
Let us not be ignorant of the riches of God which the world cannot offer. Rather, let us always reflect on them daily.

 Prayer
Oh Lord, open our eyes that we may behold Your riches which are all held in Christ Jesus, Amen.

Memory Verse             Rom. 11: 33
"O the depth of the riches, both of Wisdom and Knowledge of God, how Unsearchable are His Judgements and His Ways past finding out."

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
