Daily Fountain 2017 - 0510 - Sovereignty Of God

Thursday October 5 Bible Reading:     Rom. 9: 14 - 23 Topic:                  Sovereignty Of God The fifteenth verse of today's passage which Paul quoted from Exodus 33: 19 seems as if God is partial, but there is no unrighteousness with God. Election is a product of grace, not of human effort or works. God is Sovereign in His Work and acts according to His Own Will and Purpose. So, it was not a matter of righteousness or justice, it is rather of the Sovereign Will of God. As the Sovereign God, He has the Right to show mercy to whoever He chooses.

God is Holy and must punish sin. He is loving and desires to save sinners If everybody is saved, it would deny His Holines...

Daily Fountain 2017 - Quadruple Blessings

Tuesday October 3 (Bishop Samuel Ajayi Crowther's Day) Bible Reading:     1 Pet 5: 1 - 13 Topic:                  Quadruple Blessings Peter has addressed several issues in today's reading which concern both the old and the young. Our generation wants to serve God without suffering, but Peter has made it clear that Christians should endure suffering. Serving God should be from a sincere and a willing heart and not for any selfish reason. Peter also emphasized on humility. Humility and fear of God take care of all human aspirations including wealth, honour and life (Prov. 22: 4) Paul encourages us to have this attitude in us which was also in Christ Jesus (Phil. 2: 5). The truth is that he is not a lion, we have the Lion of Judah in our midst. Moreover the enemy is not devouring anyone he sees, but seeks to devour those that do not know God o...
