TODAY'S DEVOTION.  YOU NEED SKILLS TO PROSPER PART 2.

TODAY'S SCRIPTURE .“Do you see a man diligent and skillful in his business? He will stand before kings; he will not stand before obscure men.” ‭‭(Proverbs‬ ‭22:29‬ ‭AMPC‬‬)

When you lack skill, you can never stand out in life. The level of your skill determines the quality of your output in life. Your fasting, prayer and anointing cannot be substituted for your skill.

There is a language I hate to hear from believers “If not for the devil, I know where I would have been by now". Stop blaming the devil! When you lack skill, it is the easiest way for your destiny to be destroyed or ruined. Being skillful does not mean you are gifted, skill can be developed.

I Samuel 16:11-12. This  scripture records that God chose David, the youngest of the children of Jesse to be anointed as king in the midst of people that were stronger, taller and bigger than him. When we talk about skill, it has nothing to do with your size. Hence, I often say in the journey of life, you don’t need too much strength but you need a lot of wisdom and skill.

Psalms 78:70-71. The Bible also laid emphasis on the importance of being skillful in human endeavor. One of the greatest footballers of this generation is Lionel Messi. He is always referred to as a skillful player because he knows what to do with the ball each time.

TODAY'S WISDOM
Before a man becomes skillful, he must have gone through the rigors of various forms of training. Thereafter, he can be referred to as being skilled because of the excellence he/she potrays in whatever field of human endeavour they are in.

POTTER'S TOUCH DEVOTIONAL TUESDAY 10TH APRIL, 2018. TODAY’S DEVOTION: BLOOD OF RESTORATION. PT 2.

POTTER'S TOUCH DEVOTIONAL TUESDAY 10TH APRIL, 2018. TODAY’S DEVOTION: BLOOD OF RESTORATION. PT 2. TODAY'S SCRIPTURE: "The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?" (1 Corinthians 10:16 KJV). Every communion table is a kind of renewing the covenant of restoration. Nothing can be more exciting to know that like a meal I can eat and drink blessing of restoration. Look at how Jesus put it Himself," Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you. Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him." (John 6:53-56 KJV).  So except you keep eating the body and drink...

POTTERS TOUCH DEVOTIONAL. SATURDAY, 21ST OCTOBER 2017. TODAY'S DEVOTION.TO LIVE A QUALITY LIFE, STOP WORRYING PART 2.

POTTERS TOUCH DEVOTIONAL. SATURDAY, 21ST OCTOBER 2017. TODAY'S DEVOTION.TO LIVE A QUALITY LIFE, STOP WORRYING PART 2. TODAY'S SCRIPTURE. "Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.” (1 Peter 5:7 NLT, second edition) We established in yesterday's devotion that it takes more than willpower to stop worrying and that it takes four things to stop worrying. Firstly , get to know God first and secondly put God first in every area of your life.We will be looking at the other two today. 3.Live one day at a time. The Bible says, “So don’t worry about tomorrow, because tomorrow will have its own worries. Each day has enough trouble of its own” (Matthew 6:34 NCV). If you’re worrying about tomorrow, you can’t enjoy today. You will miss today’s blessings. It’s okay to plan for tomorrow, but you have to live for today. When you’re always worried about tomorrow, the future gets overwhelming. But God will give you the grace...

MONDAY, 11TH SEPTEMBER 2017. TODAY'S DEVOTION.CRITICISM AND PROSPERITY.

MONDAY, 11TH SEPTEMBER 2017. TODAY'S DEVOTION.CRITICISM AND PROSPERITY. TODAY'S SCRIPTURE."Start with God. The first step in learning is bowing down to God; only fools thumb their noses at such wisdom and learning” (Proverbs 1:7 MSG). Have you noticed that once you establish a goal in your life, you start hearing people say, “Who do you think you are, you think you have money?” or “It can’t be done just like that, how can one just prosper in these hard times?” or “Forget about it, they are all thieves! Etc The antidote to the voices of doubt is listening to the voice of God. Just imagine all the critics that were in Noah’s life. “That guy Noah thinks God speaks to him, but he’s just messing up the master plan of our city by building that ark in his front yard.” The Bible tells us that Noah listened to God. What did he hear? He heard God’s warning that the world was going to be destroyed. He belie...
