Certain Decisions To Make In The New Year

The year 2022 is very strategic and we need to position ourselves to be ready to partake of all God has for us.

You know, most of the time, we all think of what we should be or should have been doing. Sometimes, we even feel sorry about not doing those things. We feel bad and we figure if we had been doing those things how much we would have been happier and our lives would have improved.

The scary thing about this is that God will only tug at our hearts to do those things that will make us live a happier and fulfilled life or to stop doing certain things.

God will never force man to do what is right. God is a just God and He created us with the right to make our own decisions.

People are going to hell because they didn’t decide or make up their minds they are NOT going to end up in hell. Some other factors are responsible like disobedience, not forgiving, etc, but what I am saying is that, there is tremendous power in our decision. No devil can stop us once we take a decision.

Did you miss out on yesterday’s devotional, we’ve got you covered kindly go HERE. For KHC video Devotionals kindly go HERE

We all need to come to a point where we make up our minds and make decisive efforts. Not making a decision is a decision in its self.

Here are some decisions you can make this new year.

1. To spend more time with God and practice His presence

2. To spend more time with God’s word daily.

3. To read more widely.

4. To be an intercessor.

5. To be deliberate with loving people

6. To be a more happy person and not waste time being moody.

7. To save more money and be an investor

8. To exercise daily and watch your diet.

9. To live a life of giving and sacrifice

10. To be a doer of the Word.

11. To have mentors and follow them closely.

There are some other decisions you take daily or several times a day. Learn to live your life purposefully.

May the Lord grant us strength.

These Are What I Did Because I Was In Love – Part 2

These Are What I Did Because I Was In Love – Part 2

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Merry Christmas! This season will bring the seasonings ordained by God into our lives in Jesus name!

Continued from yesterday.

4. I was creative in my expression of love to her

I studied her to find out what makes her happy, and then I went out of my way to create some of those things like cards, paintings, and so on. I have a way with words, so I made full use of that.

He should be willing to sacrifice some things for your happiness.

5. I was willing to wait and not compromise

I was content with waiting. I was not a pastor then, but I knew sexual compromise was wrong. I wouldn’t want to push her into sin.

There is a problem when he is insisting you should sin with him. Whoever sins with you will eventually sin against you!

It is one thing if he is an unbeliever, but if he is a child of God and he is telling you to do that, something is really wrong somewhere.

6. I prayed for her more than I prayed for myself

I found it easy to pray for her. I was fulfilled doing that. All my personal prayer points were done, but hers were prioritized. I just prayed for her and I was okay with that.

If he loves you, he would always mention you before God. Something is really amiss when someone who says he is in love with you prays for himself regularly and forgets to mention your name!

 7. I wanted her to grow spiritually

I bought her books. I got her enough material that would help her spiritually. We shared books. We had Word vigils alongside others of just studying God’s word. (Don’t go and do vigils alone o!)

A relationship doesn’t survive only because you went out, went to cinemas, and had a lot of fun. There are spiritual exercises that are needed.

For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

Rom 14:17 (KJV)

To be continued tomorrow…

CONFESSION FOR THE DAY
I make the right choice in God.

PRAYER FOR THE DAY
Lord, help me to be more creative in loving my partner

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
1 Corinthians 13:4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

ACTION PLAN FOR THE DAY
Pray for wisdom

BIBLE READING FOR THE DAY
1 cor 13

Teach Your Children To Pray

Teach Your Children To Pray

Reading Time: < 1 minute

What are you teaching your children? To pray and trust? Or to worry and murmur? Daddy and mommy always sighed when there was no food in the house. Jade, their first daughter wasn’t happy either whenever together with her two brothers, they were sent back home because of school fees.

Ever since daddy lost his job, events like these have been frequent. She wished she could help out, but what can a nine-year-old do?

At church, her teacher mentioned that God hears our prayers. She entered her room, shut the door behind her, went on her knees, and began to pray, “Our heavenly father, I know you hear prayers. Daddy and mommy need your help. Please, provide for them.”

“Pray at all times.” (GNB)

I Thess. 5:17

Children, God hears your prayers much the same way He hears your parents. Your father in heaven wants you to pray always for your parents. Your prayers will release God’s blessings on them.

He wants you to pray to Him not only when things are bad, but always. He is a caring and loving God who hears everyone’s prayers and is ready to answer them.

He is waiting to hear your prayer.

“God made our ears – can’t he hear? He made our eyes – can’t he see? “

Psa. 94:9

Prayer:
Lord, help me to pray for my parents. Provide for them as they go about providing for me. Be their helper, in Jesus name. Amen.

Action point:
Pray to God about that pressing issue.

Declaration:
My children are prayerful. They understand the power in their words. God answers them speedily.

This Is What Every Godly Lady Wants

This Is What Every Godly Lady Wants

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Somebody said the most complex being that God created is a woman. I am not sure whether to agree to that. I leave you to conclude and be the judge. Perhaps, people will have different opinions based on their experiences.

I believe every lady has a key. And you don’t need to search for the keys of every woman. You only need one key, the one for your spouse! That’s all. 

Once you have that key, you are good. Now, this key is not meant to be used to manipulate her emotions, where you become the master puppeteer with all the strings.

What we are talking about is having your fiancee’s password, learning it, using it to please her, and seeking to understand the great help that God is bringing into your life.

Our culture or environment might be saying you are doing a woman a favour when you marry her, but it is the other way round.

Did you miss out on yesterday’s devotional, we’ve got you covered. Kindly go HERE. For KHC video Devotionals, kindly go HERE

When you find a woman, you find good and you bring favour into your life. Good things will begin to aggregate in your life!

That is why I normally pray for people, “You will not Shi-Marry! Bad English, good prayer! Because when you get married to the right woman, good things will happen to you. Conversely, if you get married to the wrong woman, it is like inviting a nemesis into one’s life!

May your path not cross with a strange woman who flatters with her mouth and whose path leads to hell. That is exactly what the scripture says!

It will do you well to understand the lady in your life, whether you are single or married.

Here are two things every lady wants her man to do daily.

1. Pray for or with her daily

That is very important. Thank God for your six-packs, but without some spiritual perks, you are finished.

Thank God for your phonetics, but if you don’t know how to speak in tongues, you are not ready to face the battles that come with raising a family and overcoming them. 

Thank God for your bank account, but if you are spiritually bankrupt and you don’t know how to lead your family as a priest, trouble looms ahead.

2. Tell her “I love you” regularly, and mean it!

How can this be on the list? Well, that is very important to every lady. Women go through a variety of complex emotions that are often accompanied by self esteem issues, they just needed to be affirmed over and over again especially by the one they love!

Don’t allow people outside to help you complement your loved one outside lest she becomes distracted. How long do I have to do that daily? Well, maybe as often as you can. Do it as often as you have the opportunity.

Your fiancee lives on words. That is why average, women talk more than men. An average man speaks ten thousand words daily while an average woman is doing twenty-five thousand! Isn’t that huge?

She loves to be tickled with words. She might be acting like she is not enjoying it, but in reality she is. She is putting up that attitude because she wants more.

So when you tell your lady “I love you,” She goes like, hmmm…as if she is doubting you. In reality, within her, she doesn’t want you to stop and she wants you to repeat it again.

Let me pray for you this morning:
I come against that wrong spirit in your relationship, I curse the spirit behind misunderstanding, quarrels, bitterness and acrimony. I destroy their powers in the name of Jesus. I release over you the balm of Gilead and I ask for healing over every hurt and wounds in the name of Jesus.

By the strength of my call, I ask that the love of God be shed abroad in your heart right now, I command every veil to be removed and I speak healing over your relationship/marriage in Jesus name! I declare you are free from that attack in Jesus name.

CONFESSION FOR THE DAY
I will love my spouse in God’s terms

PRAYER FOR THE DAY
Lord, help me to end all issues leading to constant strife

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
“The same goes for you husbands: Be good husbands to your wives. Honor them, delight in them. As women they lack some of your advantages. But in the new life of God’s grace, you’re equals. Treat your wives, then, as equals so your prayers don’t run aground.” (1Pe 3:7, MSG)

ACTION PLAN FOR THE DAY
Read, comment, and share today’s devotional.

BIBLE READING FOR THE DAY
Nehemiah 1-5

More Things Every Wife Should Do For Her Husband

More Things Every Wife Should Do For Her Husband

Reading Time: 3 minutes

We started this topic a few on the things that the husband will want his wife to do for him days back. We looked at

1. Lovingly ask your husband what his present needs are and how you can meet them.

Today we will look at

2. Be ready to offer him help.

I know some women could be saying, I need help also let him help himself, is he a baby?

And yes, it could be overwhelming. When you work at a job, care for the house, the children, go to the market, do the laundry sometimes, there seems to be no time to take care of yourself, let alone help him out.

I always tell people, God is asking you to be everything. He is asking to be all that is needed par time with the strength He supplies.

This help could be as simple as being a good listener, who offered support.

There is capacity inside every woman to function as a helper. This is an unselfish role. You must be willing to the embassy this role and put on the garment of a helper.

Remember: you want to be a wife that will be celebrated, whose rewards will be obvious to all.

Did you miss out on yesterday’s devotional, we’ve got you covered kindly go HERE. For KHC video Devotionals kindly go HERE

3. Pray for you husband

Some people believe that when you pray you are being fanatical. Well, try functioning without oxygen and see how far you can go. It’s almost impossible.

You pray not only because you have a problem.
Develop a relationship with the Father. In that case you learn to talk with Him about everything, especially about your husband.

Pray for his protection in this evil world. Pray for his job. You can make use a daily praying guide.

Remember, when you are praying for your husband, you are praying for yourself.

4. Submission is a vital part of the deal

The word submission have been abused and it’s intention has been reduced to merely that of the lord and servant.

Submission and love go hand in hand. A wife that is loved, will definitely be submitted.

The role of a woman viz a viz that of a man requires her to be submissive.

She is not inferior to her husband, but positionally, she occupies the second position.

For any woman or wife to make the home and marriage worthwhile, she has to be submissive to her own husband.

5. Respect him.

There is no husband who does not like being respected. If you think respect is no big deal to your husband, wait till someone else gives him respect and see what happens.

If your husband is not making a big deal of you respecting him, wait till a few more years. It will be as if your husband has changed from who he was.
So it’s better to begin now, practicing respecting him.

Respect can be seen in almost everything. From how you prepare his food, to the way it is served, how you talk to him and talk about him in private and public, all reveal the way you value and respect him.

I believe if we can do these things, we will be loved, cherished and valued more by our husband.

God bless our marriage.

CONFESSION FOR THE DAY
I am led by the spirit to know how to meet my husband’s needs.

PRAYER FOR THE DAY
Father Lord, teach me to be patient enough to listen to your guidance

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Pro 31:10-11 Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.

ACTION PLAN FOR THE DAY
Start practicing these things

BIBLE READING FOR THE DAY
Rom 4
