Daily Fountain 2017 - Consider It Worth Doing

Wednesday May 17

Bible Reading: Gen. 14: 17 - 20

Topic: Consider It Worth Doing

Abram fought to rescue his nephew Lot who was captured when Sodom, where he lived was subdued in battle.

Our environment, friends and associates influence our lives and that of our families.

Many people today are in prison because of bad company. Be mindful where you live and the company you keep because they can make or mar your life.

Abram's sacrifice for the freedom of Lot is worth emulating.

Considering his past experience with Lot (Gen. 13: 10 - 11), it would have been easily justified for him to attribute Lot's ordeal as the consequence of his misconduct, but he showed genuine love and concern.

Be the Abram of your own family. Do your best to save your relatives. Many of them are under the bondage of sin, your intervention is greatly needed. Organize programs, if you can preach, show love and pray for their salvation.

Check if there are some among them who are passing through difficult times, including people who may have served you in the past. Allow God to use you to rescue them.

As you do that, God will bless you as He blessed Abram through Melchizedek. Just consider it worth doing.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, give me the passionate desire to forgive, love and help those who need my help, Amen

Memory Verse: Gen. 14: 18

"And Melchizedek King of Salem brought forth bread and wine; and he was the Priest of the Most High God"

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
