Title: Nurture and Follow Up.

-
Colossians 1:13  Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
Devotion: Paul heard of the love and faith of the Colossians from Epaphras and decided to pray for them to continue in faith and grow in it. It is a good thing to believe Christ but as young believer you need prayer support to grow and become matured Christian. 
 This is important when we evangelize to look back and visit the young converts regularly, pray for and with them. It is also important to hand them over to a mature Christian leader who will guide them under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. If these steps are not taken most the people will backslide. May we not labour in vain. 
 Even in our secular jobs we need to teach and nurture future leaders otherwise the business may collapse. 
 Dearly beloved, have you been evangelizing, make sure to follow up with the new converts, nurture them to maturity. Share your experience with us here please. Be blessed in Jesus name.

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 ...
