DEVOTION FOR TODAY: Bible Text: Proverbs 27:17 “Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.” Topic: "Iron Sharpens Iron" The Introduction: God never designed us to live or grow alone. From the beginning, He said, “It is not good that man should be alone” (Genesis 2:18). In our spiritual journey, relationships are not optional—they are essential. This proverb teaches that just as iron sharpens iron, believers are called to sharpen one another for growth, strength, and effectiveness. 1. We Need Each Other for Spiritual Growth. No one grows strong in isolation. Christianity is not a solo journey; it is a fellowship. God uses people to teach, encourage, and shape us. Hebrews 10:24-25 – “Consider one another… not forsaking the assembling…” Ecclesiastes 4:9 – “Two are better than one…” Stay connected to the body of Christ—church, fellowship, and godly friendships. 2. True Friends Bring Correction and Improvement. Real sharpening involves correction. Sharpening creates friction—it is not always comfortable. A true friend tells you the truth, even when it hurts. Proverbs 27:6 – “Faithful are the wounds of a friend…” Galatians 6:1 – Restore one another in meekness Welcome godly correction; don’t reject those God uses to refine you. 3. Accountability Strengthens Our Walk with God. We grow stronger when someone is watching and guiding. Accountability keeps us focused and disciplined. It prevents spiritual drift and compromise. James 5:16 – “Confess your faults one to another…” Ecclesiastes 4:12 – “A threefold cord is not quickly broken” Have someone in your life who can ask you hard questions and pray with you. 4. Sharpening is Mutual, Not One-Sided. We are both sharpeners and those being sharpened. Everyone has something to give and receive. You are not just called to be helped—you are called to help others grow. Romans 1:12 – “That I may be comforted together with you…” 1 Thessalonians 5:11 – “Edify one another” Be intentional about encouraging, mentoring, and uplifting others. 5. God Uses Relationships to Refine Our Character. People are instruments of God’s refining process. Through relationships, God develops patience, humility, and love. Even difficult people can sharpen us. James 1:2-4 – Trials produce maturity Proverbs 17:17 – “A friend loveth at all times” Don’t run from relationships—learn what God is teaching you through them. The Summary. Iron sharpening iron reminds us that: We need each other True friends refine us Accountability strengthens us. God at times uses people to shape us. Conclusion / Call to Action ASK YOURSELF: Who is sharpening me? Am I sharpening someone else? Surround yourself with godly people who will challenge and build you. And commit to being a source of strength and encouragement to others. CLOSING TEXT: Proverbs 13:20 – “He that walketh with wise men shall be wise…”

OUR WEEKLY MEDITATION TOPIC: WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO SERVE THE LORD? Bible Text: Joshua 24:15 — “But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” INTRODUCTION Serving the Lord is more than attending church or participating in religious activities. It is a lifestyle of love, obedience, and commitment to God. Every believer is called to serve God faithfully with their heart, time, gifts, and resources. 1. SERVING THE LORD MEANS LOVING AND OBEYING HIM: Bible Text: John 14:15 True service begins with obedience to God's Word. Genuine love for God is demonstrated through obedience. We serve Him not out of duty alone, but out of love and gratitude. II. SERVING THE LORD MEANS USING OUR GIFTS FOR HIS GLORY: Bible Text: 1 Peter 4:10 Every believer has a role in promoting God's kingdom. God has given each person gifts and abilities to bless others. Serving God includes using our talents to advance His work and help people; not for some personal gains. 3. SERVING THE LORD MEANS REMAINING FAITHFUL UNTIL THE END: Bible Text: Matthew 24:13 Faithful service requires perseverance. Challenges and difficulties will come, but believers must remain committed. God rewards those who faithfully serve Him throughout their lives. Serving the Lord means loving Him, obeying His commands, using our gifts for His glory, and remaining faithful through every season of life. A life devoted to God brings purpose, joy, and eternal reward. As believers, we should daily ask ourselves how we can honor and serve the Lord more effectively. CLOSING VERSES: Colossians 3:23 — “And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men.” Matthew 7:21-22 21. Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? REFLECTION QUESTIONS: 1. In what practical ways am I showing my love and obedience to God? 2. What gifts or talents has God given me that I can use in His service? 3. What challenges are hindering my commitment to serving the Lord? 4. What steps can I take to remain faithful in serving God until the end?

✍️SOMEONE MUST HEAR THIS ! STOP PRAYING ONLY FOR THINGS.--PRAY FOR YOUR TRANSFORMATION FIRST: Many believers focus on receiving blessings, yet God is far more concerned about who we are becoming. True elevation in the Kingdom is not built on possessions, but on transformation of the heart and mind. As Scripture declares, “Be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind” (Romans 12:2) There are dimensions, responsibilities, and blessings God has already prepared—but your current state may not yet be able to carry them. Growth is not optional; it is essential for capacity. “No man putteth new wine into old bottles…” (Luke 5:37). God will not pour new things into an unprepared vessel. Access follows alignment. When your life aligns with God’s will, His purpose unfolds naturally. “If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you” (John 15:7). Alignment positions you for access. You cannot possess what you are not prepared to steward. God does not release divine assignments into unready hands. Faithfulness in preparation is the gateway to greater responsibility. “He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much” (Luke 16:10). God’s process is intentional: He refines before He reveals. “When he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold” (Job 23:10). He prepares before He promotes. “Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time” (1 Peter 5:6). He transforms before He entrusts. “And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit will I put within you” (Ezekiel 36:26). Summary and conclusion: God is not just interested in answering your prayers—He is committed to shaping your life. When you prioritize transformation, you position yourself for everything He has already prepared. Seek not just His hand, but His process. Am I praying more for what I want, or for who God is calling me to become? Am l praying to be able to manage myself and what God has for me, or just praying for riches? We read in 1 John 2:15--17 "Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passing away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever." ApstDr Gibson Myers

BIBLE TEXT: John 14:1–6 TOPIC: HEAVEN IS PREPARED FOR PREPARED PEOPLE THE INTRODUCTION: In John 14:1–6, Jesus comforted His disciples before His departure by assuring them that He was going to prepare a place for them in His Father's house. This promise reveals that heaven is a real place prepared by Christ for those who are ready to meet Him. While heaven is prepared by Jesus, believers must also prepare their hearts and lives through faith, obedience, and holy living. Therefore, heaven is prepared for prepared people. 1. HEAVEN IS A PREPARED PLACE. Key Verse: John 14:2 – "I go to prepare a place for you." Jesus personally promised to prepare an eternal home for His followers. Heaven is not imaginary; it is a real and glorious dwelling place designed by God. Sub-point: Christ's Preparation Demonstrates His Love. Jesus' preparation of heaven shows His deep love and concern for believers. He desires that His people spend eternity with Him. 2. PREPARED PEOPLE KEEP THEIR FOCUS ON CHRIST. Key Verse: John 14:1 – "Believe in God; believe also in me." The journey to heaven begins with genuine faith in Jesus Christ. Trusting Him as Savior and Lord is the foundation of eternal life. Sub-point: Faith Removes Fear and Uncertainty Those who trust Christ can face life's challenges and even death with confidence because their future is secure in Him. 3. PREPARED PEOPLE LIVE IN OBEDIENCE TO GOD. Key Verse: John 14:6 – "I am the way, the truth, and the life." Following Christ involves more than believing; it requires daily obedience to His teachings and submission to His will. Sub-point: Holy Living Reflects Readiness for Heaven A life characterized by righteousness, integrity, and devotion to God demonstrates spiritual preparedness for eternity. 4. PREPARED PEOPLE FOLLOW the ONLY WAY TO HEAVEN. Key Verse: John 14:6 – "No one comes to the Father except through me." Jesus clearly declared Himself as the only way to the Father. Salvation cannot be found through human effort, religion, or good works alone. Sub-point: Accepting Christ Is Essential Every person must personally receive Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior to enter the heavenly home He has prepared. THE CONCLUSION. Jesus has already prepared a place in heaven for His followers, but only those who are spiritually prepared will enter it. Preparation involves trusting Christ, obeying His Word, living a holy life, and following Him as the only way to the Father. The question is not whether heaven is prepared—it is. The real question is whether we are prepared for heaven. QUESTIONS FOR REFLECTION 1. Am I fully trusting Jesus Christ as my Savior and Lord? 2. What evidence in my life shows that I am preparing for eternity? 3. Are there areas of disobedience that I need to surrender to God? 4. How does the promise of heaven influence my daily decisions? 5.

I'm just stopping by to appreciate all these mighty intercessors for their dedicated services

I'M GRATEFUL TO THE ALMIGHTY GOD FOR HIS GRACE UPON MY FAMILY AND I

JUST SO WE WILL KNOW THIS ONE TRUTH: WE DIDN'T BRING ANYTHING INTO THIS WORLD AND IS CERTAIN WE ARE NOT CARRYING ANYTHING OUT OF IT

BIBLE TEXT: Galatians 5:22–23 “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.” TOPIC: WHAT ARE THE FRUITS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, THEIR IMPORTANCE AND BENEFITS? INTRODUCTION: The fruits of the Holy Spirit are the godly qualities produced in the life of a believer who lives under the guidance and control of the Holy Spirit. These fruits reflect the character of Jesus Christ and help believers live victorious Christian lives. Just as a healthy tree produces good fruit, a true believer should display spiritual fruits in daily living. The fruits of the Spirit are not merely outward actions, but inward transformations brought by God. I. LOVE-- is the ability to care for others sincerely, sacrificially, and unconditionally as Christ loves us. Love is the foundation of all Christian virtues. Without love, other spiritual gifts and works lose their value in ministry. How much do we value love within the body of Christ? IMPORTANCE AND BENEFITS--Love builds unity among believers; helps believers forgive others and draws people closer to God through Christian example. Read John 13:35. Il. JOY--is inner gladness and confidence in God regardless of circumstances. Joy strengthens believers during trials and difficulties. IMPORTANCE AND BENEFITS--it gives spiritual strength, removes discouragement and hopelessness and helps believers worship God wholeheartedly. Read Nehemiah 8:10. Ill. PEACE--is calmness and assurance that come from trusting God completely. Peace helps believers remain stable even in troubled situations. Do believers know they are peace makers? IMPORTANCE AND BENEFITS--It reduces fear and anxiety, promotes harmony with others. Enables believers to trust God in difficult times. Read John 14:27. IV. LONG-SUFFERING OR PATIENCE--is the ability to endure hardship, delay, or offense without giving up or becoming bitter. Patience helps believers grow spiritually and deal wisely with people. IMPORTANCE AND BENEFITS--develops spiritual maturity, helps maintain good relationships, and enables believers to wait on God’s timing. Read James 1:3–4. V. GENTLENESS AND GOODNESSES--is showing kindness and humility toward others, while goodness means living morally upright and doing what is right.These qualities reveal the nature of Christ in believers. Do we love our neighbors just as we love ourselves? IMPORTANCE AND BENEFITS: Gentilenes makes believers approachable and compassionate. Encourages others through good example. Helps believers become instruments of blessing. Read Ephesians 4:32. SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION: The fruits of the Holy Spirit are visible evidence of God’s work in the life of a believer. Through the Holy Spirit, Christians are empowered to live lives filled with love, joy, peace, patience, gentleness, and goodness. These fruits help believers grow spiritually, maintain healthy relationships, and become effective witnesses for Christ in the world. God desires every believer to bear spiritual fruit. The more believers surrender themselves to the Holy Spirit, the more these godly qualities become visible in their lives. Bearing the fruits of the Spirit is a sign of spiritual maturity and a testimony of true Christian living. Therefore, believers must continually pray, study God’s Word, and walk closely with the Holy Spirit so that their lives reflect the true character of Christ. QUESTIONS FOR REFLECTION: 1. Which fruit of the Spirit do you need most in your life today? 2. How can believers develop the fruits of the Holy Spirit daily? 3. Why is love considered the greatest fruit of the Spirit? 4. How does peace help believers during difficult situations? 5. What are some signs that a believer is walking in the Spirit?

LET'S WALK CAUTIOUSLY IN THESE LAST DAYS: Blessings from me to everyone of you in Jesus Name: This is the day that The Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it. Psalms 118:24 Hebrews 3:13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. Micah 6:8 He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? Ephesians 5:15-17 says, "See then that ye walk circumspectly(cautiously), not as fools, but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is." The days certainly are evil as we have seen in the past days,weeks,months and years where People are constantly planning hate and destruction on others. God wants to make it clear to us as Christians that we are not to be as others,but to walk humbly before our God,cautiously, with love and mercy in our Hearts.We cannot allow ourselves to be overmuch caught up in the things in our Country and things going on around the world. We are warned in the Scriptures about such times as these: We read in 2 Timothy 3:1-5 "This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away." As Christians we are to be praying for our leaders and asking God to give them wisdom in order to properly handle the present situations that are happening around us. We are to shine as lights in a dark world where satan,the god of this world, is bringing more and more darkness. 1 Timothy 2:1-6 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; for kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time. 1 Timothy 6:15-16 which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Who was,and is,and is to come,The Lord Jesus Christ,The Almighty God. Revelation 1:4, 1:8.,4:8. We are supposed to be the ones who are aware of what is going on in the world. Evil is raising up and trying to destroy all that is good,trying to bring more violence and hatred among people;trying to promote gross immorality and ruin to the world as we know it.the devil hates all humanity because we are all made in the image of God and he hates God. We need to become Warriors,Not in the natural but prayer Warriors.We need to pray as never before for our Nation and the world in general. God loves every Person on earth and it is not His will that any should perish but that all would come to a saving knowledge of JESUS CHRIST. God bless You all today and be in much prayer as we need good to overcome evil,God loves You. Isaiah 1:18 says, "Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool." We read in Romans 10:8-11 "But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed." CLOSING BENEDICTION: The Lord bless thee, and keep thee: The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: the Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace, now and forever more in Jesus name 🙏

The days certainly are evil as we have seen in the past days,weeks,months and years where People are constantly planning hate and destruction on others. God wants to make it clear to us as Christians that we are not to be as others,but to walk humbly before our God,cautiously, with love and mercy in our Hearts.We cannot allow ourselves to be overmuch caught up in the things in our Country and things going on around the world. We are warned in the Scriptures about such times as these: We read in 2 Timothy 3:1-5 "This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away." As Christians we are to be praying for our leaders and asking God to give them wisdom in order to properly handle the present situations that are happening around us. We are to shine as lights in a dark world where satan,the god of this world, is bringing more and more darkness. 1 Timothy 2:1-6 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; for kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time. 1 Timothy 6:15-16 which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Who was,and is,and is to come,The Lord Jesus Christ,The Almighty God. Revelation 1:4, 1:8.,4:8. We are supposed to be the ones who are aware of what is going on in the world. Evil is raising up and trying to destroy all that is good,trying to bring more violence and hatred among people;trying to promote gross immorality and ruin to the world as we know it.the devil hates all humanity because we are all made in the image of God and he hates God. We need to become Warriors,Not in the natural but prayer Warriors.We need to pray as never before for our Nation and the world in general. God loves every Person on earth and it is not His will that any should perish but that all would come to a saving knowledge of JESUS CHRIST. God bless You all today and be in much prayer as we need good to overcome evil,God loves You. Isaiah 1:18 says, "Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool." We read in Romans 10:8-11 "But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed." CLOSING BENEDICTION: The Lord bless thee, and keep thee: The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: the Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace, now and forever more in Jesus name 🙏

CHRISTIANS OUGHT TO BE VERY CAREFUL HOW THEY LIVE THEIR LIVES IN THESE LAST DAYS. KNOW THIS, WE DIDN'T BRING ANYTHING INTO THIS WORLD AND IT'S CERTAIN WE CARRY NOTHING OUT OF IT

OUR DEVOTIONAL MEDITATION Main Bible Text: Galatians 1:10 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ. For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying  s to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a  t servant  of Christ. Romans 12:1–2 1. I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. TOPIC: "LIVE TO PLEASE GOD, NOT MAN OR YOURSELF" The Introduction: In a world that constantly tells us to “follow your heart” and “do what makes you happy,” many people live primarily to satisfy their own desires. However, the life of a believer is different. When we give our lives to Christ, our focus shifts from self-pleasing to God-pleasing. The Apostle Paul asked in Galatians 1:10, “Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God?” Living to please God requires surrender, obedience, and a transformed mindset. True fulfillment is not found in pleasing ourselves but in honoring God with our lives. How Can We Live And Do Things To Please God? 1. A God-pleasing life is a Changed life; saved and born again...Read John 3:1-7, 2 Corin. 5:17... It's not how long we been in the church or position that we hold.... Il. A God-Pleasing Life Requires Total Surrender... ...Seeking first the kingdom of God, putting God first Let's deny SELF...Pick up our cross and follow daily A life that pleases God begins with surrendering ourselves completely to Him. A) Present Your Life as a Living Sacrifice. Believers must willingly offer their lives, desires, and plans to God. Our time, talents, and decisions should reflect our commitment to Him. B) Deny Self and Follow God’s Will for your life. Jesus taught that following Him requires self-denial. Instead of doing what we want, we choose what God wants. Ill. A God-Pleasing Life is a life of faith....Heb. 11:6 "But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. ....Strong faith like Daniel and the 3 Hebrew men A) Reject the Pattern of the World and pleasure of sin. The world promotes selfishness, pride, and self-gratification. Believers must resist conforming to these worldly values. B) Allow God’s Word to Transform Your Thinking Through prayer, studying Scripture, and the guidance of the Holy Spirit, our minds are renewed so that we can discern God’s perfect will. Ill. A God-Pleasing Life is a fruit bearing life.... A) Walk in Holiness and Righteousness. God desires His people to live holy lives that reflect His character before others. B) Seek God’s Approval Above Human Approval. When believers prioritize God’s approval, they remain faithful even when facing criticism, rejection, or opposition. The Summary/Conclusion: Living to please God instead of ourselves is the true mark of a committed believer. It requires surrendering our lives to Him, renewing our minds through His Word, and living in obedience to His will. When our goal is to please God, our lives become a testimony of His grace and power. A life that pleases God may not always please the world, but it brings divine favor, spiritual growth, and eternal reward. Therefore, let us choose daily to live not for ourselves, but for the glory of God.
