THE CHOSEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL... DATE : FRIDAY, 29TH JANUARY, 2016. THEME: DISCERNING THE TIME TEXT: 2Ttmothy 3:1 1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. MEMORY VERSE: Matthew 24:3-10. MESSAGE: Brethren, we all should be vigilant as events heralding the coming of the Lord unfold. Our Master Jesus Christ did not leave us guessing when He will return to the earth to take us home. He gave us the sign post or early warning signs. The things happening in the world today should alarm all believers. As our opening text says, what we witness around us today shows that the Lord is really by the corner. Since recorded history, people have not been so materialistic, covetous, selfish, lovers of pleasure, rebellious and destructive than in this century. The goal of most people these days is to grab money at all cost, dress to kill and to be seen in riotous parties and 'enjoy' life to the fullest. The hustle and bustle in our cities these days is

THE CHOSEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL... DATE: TUESDAY, 26TH JANUARY, 2016. THEME: DO NOT BE DOUBLE MINDED TEXT: James 1:8 8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways. MEMORY VERSE: Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. Mark 9:23 MESSAGE: Many people get discouraged and crash out of the heavenly race because of delayed expectations and other challenging life experiences. This group of people tries to make God a liar to their own peril. Once you are satisfied that your relationship with God is right, take whatever comes your way and commit everything to His hands. The bible says in the book of 1 Corthinans 15:19 "If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable. Brethren, we did not give our lives to Jesus to get good jobs, marry, have children, build houses, or buy good cars. We gave our lives to Him because we love Him and want to serve Him so that at last, we shall be in heaven. If y

THE CHOSEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL... DATE: MONDAY, 25TH JANUARY, 2016. THEME: BE OF A QUIET SPIRIT TEXT: James 1 : 19 19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let everyman be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:  MEMORY VERSE: In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin: but he that refraineth his lips is wise. Proverbs 10:19 MESSAGE: No one can operate outside the commandment of God and remains a Christian but a rebel who is waiting for the judgment of God. Believers are not of the world and cannot behave like the worldly people. By accepting Jesus, a genuine believer has handed his or her life to Him without attempting to take it back. Our saviour Jesus Christ led a perfect example of how His followers should conduct themselves. The Lord demands that we be sober and vigilant round the clock to avoid being found wanting when He beckons. It is therefore worthy of note that a true believer should avoid talkativeness or being in the midst of unruly or rowdy people

SUNDAY SERVICE MESSAGE AT TLCCRM INT'L HQ, IJESHA, LAGOS, NIGERIA. 24/01/2016. TOPIC: HE THAT SHALL DWELL ON HIGH - PART 1 TEXT: Isaiah 33:14-17, Psalm 24:3-5; Hebrew 12:14 INTRODUCTION TO MESSAGE Whoever that desire to make heaven at last, must meet up with the criteria or principles whereby he/she can make it, the reason been that, heaven is holy and the abode of God (Isaiah 6:1-5). Therefore, we must keep away from all evil or unrighteousness, we must hate evil and all its attraction (Psalm 45:7; Proverb: 1:10). We should endeavour to be pure in every area, we should remember that heaven is a holy place, nobody shall dwell on high or go up there with iniquity (Mathew 7:23; 1st Corinthians: 6:9), all those who want to dwell on high must meet the criteria (Psalm 24:3-5; Psalm 25:4-5). For better insight, we shall consider this message under two sub-sections; POINT 1: THE QUESTION OF THE HEAVENLY MINDED AND RESPONSE Many who truly want heaven are always searching and

THE CHOSEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL... DATE: SUNDAY, JANUARY 24TH 2016. THEME: BROKENNESS, A NECESSITY. TEXT: 2 Thessalonians 2:13 13 But we are bound to give thanks always to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: MEMORY VERSE: The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit. Psalm 34:18 MESSAGE: Brokenness or sanctification is the second work of grace after salvation. It is a very important experience in our relationship with God. It is preparing and setting ourselves apart for the use of God according to His purpose and design. It is the absence of brokenness that makes many Christians to struggle in their walk with the Lord. When a Christian is broken, he can hardly hurt a fly, have hot and destructive anger, he or she has no room for retaliation neither can such a person have anything to do with qu

THE CHOSEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL... DATE: SATURDAY, 23RD JANUARY, 2016. THEME: WALKING IN THE SPIRIT TEXT: Galatians 5:16-17 16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. MEMORY VERSE: For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. Romans 8: 14. MESSAGE: Carnality and spirituality cannot walk together because they are eternally irreconcilable. God is a spirit and they that worship Him do so in spirit and truth. Walking in the spirit makes for joy because it is a proof that we are the sons and daughters of God. Walking in the spirit simply means allowing the Holy Spirit and the word of God to drive one's life on daily basis and anywhere. When you allow the word of God to rule your live in accordance to His will, you are walking in the

AN ADDRESS DELIVERED BY THE DEAN OF STUDIES/H.O.D. MORE GRACE BIBLE INSTITUTE, PAST.

We are here gathered once again this year for the matriculation and convocation ceremony of the pastoral training arm of this great ministry, MGBI.

It is like yesterday when we try to recall that it is now ten 10 years since the establishment of the school. We are therefo

THE CHOSEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL... DATE: FRIDAY, JANUARY 22ND 2016. THEME: FOLLOWING GOD WITH KNOWLEDGE TEXT: Hosea 4:6 6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. MEMORY VERSE: Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he. Proverbs 29:18. MESSAGE: Knowledge is the key to dealing with any situation and coming out on top. Lack of knowledge of any matter spiritual or otherwise can only lead to failures and pains. It is surprising that many Christians do not actually understand God, His ways and breath taking abilities. If you do not truly understand God, though a Christian, how can you please Him? Prophet Hosea lamented in our opening text that the people of God are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Knowledge of what? Knowledge of God's abilities,

THE CHOSEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL... DATE: THURSDAY, 21ST JANUARY, 2016. THEME: DWELLING IN HIS PRESENCE TEXT: Exodus 33.14 14 And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest. And he said unto him, If thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence. MEMORY VERSE: How amiable are thy tabernacles, O LORD of hosts! My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of the LORD: my heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God. Psalm 84:1-2 MESSAGE: God is everywhere but His presence is not everywhere. The presence of God in the midst of His people is beyond human understanding because it brings joy inexplicable and dissolves every burden in our hearts. The presence of God goes with genuine believers anywhere they go to protect and deliver them in difficult situation. On the other hand, dwelling in the presence of God goes beyond our expectation that He is always with us. His presence can be activated in many ways ranging from studying and meditati

THE CHOSEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL... DATE: WEDNESDAY, 20TH JANUARY 2016. THEME: SET NO EVIL BEFORE YOUR EYES TEXT: Psalm 101:3 3 I will set no evil thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me. MEMORY VERSE: The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness! Matthew 6:22-23 MESSAGE: Being spiritually alert all the time is what every believer of Christ should not ignore. We are living in a world where the devil has painted evil good and appealing to weak Christians. The fact is that so many Christians commit sin through their eyes. How? They pollute their spiritual life through what they see, view or watch. Let us not forget that sin starts building up in the mind through mainly what the eyes see. And so we are not permitted to watch

THE CHOSEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL... DATE: MONDAY, JANUARY 11TH, 2016. THEME: THE BROAD & NARROW WAY TEXT: Matthew 7:13-14 13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. MEMORY VERSE: And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein. No lion shall be there, nor any ravenous beast shall go up thereon, it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk there: Isaiah 35:8-10 MESSAGE: For every human born into this physical world, he or she must follow either the broad way to hellfire or the narrow way to heaven at the end of this life. In other words, eternity is real and the activities of an individual person wi

THE CHOSEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL... DATE: FRIDAY, JANUARY 8TH, 2016. THEME: BELIEVERS SHUT OUT OF HEAVEN TEXT: Matthew 25:10 10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. MEMORY VERSE: And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. Revelation 22:12-13 MESSAGE: The ultimate goal of believers and followers of Jesus Christ is to be In heaven at the end of this life. Lack of knowledge or ignorance has nothing to do with the fact that this present world will soon pass away with all its grandeur. If heaven is your goal, how are you preparing to go there? In our opening text, those who were not prepared by toying with their salvation could not enter into the marriage supper of the lamb even though they were Christians. You must ask yourself some probing question
