Title : Knowledge

-
"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction. Proverbs 1:7"
Devotion : This scripture makes us understand that the fear of God is knowledge. This fear is not because God is evil, NO, but because we know what He can do and undo. An example when we were children we were afraid of our parents not because they will harm us but because they loved us and we don't want to offend them. Same here God loves us even before we know Him, it is only proper that we fear(REVERE) HIM. To reverence Him we must know Him by accepting His free gift of Jesus Christ into our lives as Our Lord and Saviour. This is the beginning of knowledge and it of utmost importance to successful Christian life.
Before any person would fear God or give God reverence, he might have had a prior knowledge of Him through the word of God. We therefore need to attend fellowship with other children of God.
  This knowledge a person receives from God leads to the wisdom of God and more reverence.
 Fools on the other hand, have no regard for wisdom and instruction; because of this inherent character they will continue to live in folly (sin)
   Dear reader, do you fear God and how do you mean?

Title : Keys

"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. John 14:6" Devotion : There are three main keys: way, truth, and life. Everyone is calling on God but there is a way to do it, Jesus Christ is that way. Many religious folks claim they have the truth to God but Jesus Christ is the truth. Many think life is all about the natural life but Jesus is the life beyond this present world. Choose Jesus and you would have these three most priceless keys in life.

Title: When your time shall be over, you'll fly away.

Psalms 90:10  The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away. Devotional: Late music legend – Peter Tosh sang a song with this title many years ago. It came to mind yesterday while I listened to a beautifully delivered sermon at a burial. I therefore penned this devotional on same title. Do not be deceived, at a point in your life you’ll fly away.   There comes a day when the tapestry of your earthly existence is folded. The moments of struggle, joy, triumph, and trials will all coalesce into a story complete. When that time comes, the soul, unburdened by the weight of the mortal frame, ascends beyond the veil of this world—taking flight toward eternal rest.   You are not bound to the temporal; your essence is celestial. As the Psalmist declared, "The days of our years are threescore years and ten...it is soon cut off, and we ...
