TODAY'S DEVOTION. PURE IN HEART.

TODAY’S SCRIPTURE.“Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God." (‭‭Matthew‬ ‭5:8‬ ‭KJV‬‬).

You are not pure by your actions only. Purity begins with the heart. God deals with us from the heart, In I Samuel 16:7 when Samuel was  considering Eliab, David's older brother as the one he should anoint as king, God told him, "Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature, because I have refused him; for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart." God looks at your heart always. Therefore, to be pure make sure your have pure thoughts always, “For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.”(‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭23:7‬ ‭KJV‬‬).

The heart God is referring to is your “thoughts” if you are pure in your heart (your thoughts) you will be pure before God. It is more worthy that “thinking or thoughts” is not a gift or an attack but rather every thought is a product of the information you are exposed to. In other to make your heart pure, make your thoughts pure and to make your thought pure, make your information pure.

Information comes from your five senses. What you see, hear, feel, taste or touch. You can never be more powerful than your thoughts. Your capacity for purity is measured by the purity of your mind. If you desire to experience genuine  purity, you must guard what your mind feeds on consciously.“Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.”(Philippians‬ ‭4:8‬ ‭KJV‬‬)

The worst enemy of our purity today is the uncontrolled exposure of our mind to junk on social media. Analyse the pictures,videos, articles and adverts you keep checking; are they true,honest, just, pure, lovely,of good report, virtuous or worthy of praise?

TODAY'S PRAYER.
Purify my heart Father with your fire and burn all impure thoughts in my memory. Help me control the information I expose my heart to this year so I can live in purity in Jesus Name.

21ST MARCH,2018. TODAYS DEVOTION.MERCY IN CONFLICTS.

21ST MARCH,2018. TODAYS DEVOTION.MERCY IN CONFLICTS. TODAY’S SCRIPTURE."I beg you in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ to stop arguing among yourselves. Let there be real harmony so that there won’t be splits in the church. I plead with you to be of one mind, united in thought and purpose." (1 Corinthians 1:10 LB) Stop trying to win arguments. Instead, make it your goal to love those who disagree with you. Go for the love, not the win. Jesus tells us love will always win; he guaranteed that when he walked out of the tomb. When you find yourself in an argument with other believers, use these biblical guidelines for getting along: Let mercy guide your response (Proverbs 3:3–6). In a conflict, most of us say we only want what’s fair, but God’s approach isn’t about being fair. It’s about grace and mercy (Romans 5:8). Let God’s Mercy determine the truth (2 Corinthians 13:8). The truth is not determined by your thoughts or feelings (1 John ...

POTTERS TOUCH DEVOTIONAL. TUESDAY, 14TH NOVEMBER 2017. TODAY’S DEVOTION. OVERFLOW OF IDEAS

POTTERS TOUCH DEVOTIONAL. TUESDAY, 14TH NOVEMBER 2017. TODAY’S DEVOTION. OVERFLOW OF IDEAS TODAY'S SCRIPTURE.“The life-giving Spirit of God will hover over him, the Spirit that brings wisdom and understanding, The Spirit that gives direction and builds strength, the Spirit that instills knowledge and Fear-of-God”. (Isaiah 11:2 MSG) One of the ways through which you harvest your seeds sown for overflow is through the rain of divine ideas. In Genesis 7:11-12, we understand that when the windows of heaven first opened, what poured down from heaven was rain. What is this rain? What does it symbolise, what does it represent? It is not literal rain, neither is it destructive, it is the rain of refreshing; it is the rain of the Spirit of God. The anointing of the Holy Spirit! It is the rain that produces unimaginable results for overflow. “Be glad then, ye children of Zion and rejoice in the Lord your God: for He hath given you the former rain moderately, and he wi...

SUNDAY, 17TH  SEPTEMBER 2017. TODAY'S DEVOTION.RAIN OF IDEAS FOR PROSPERITY PART 2.

SUNDAY, 17TH  SEPTEMBER 2017. TODAY'S DEVOTION.RAIN OF IDEAS FOR PROSPERITY PART 2. TODAY'S SCRIPTURE. "Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the Lord your God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month. And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:" (Joel 2:23, 28 KJV). The Bible records that Abraham became very rich in cattle,silver and gold. But how did he become outstanding and outshine other bussinessmen? Through the rain of divine ideas by the Holy Ghost which came in response to his giving. Abraham dug wells for his cattle instead of them going about. By divine inspiration he knew what to do to get fatter and fresher cattle and sheep. Isaac also got the secret of irrigation by the re...
