Title: Panth after the Word.

-
As the hart panteth after the water brooks, So panteth my soul after thee, O God.
Psalm 42:1 KJV
Devotion: On national geographic, each time I saw thirsty herd of deer rushing to the brook to drink water even in the presence of pride of lions I remember Psalm 42:1. They will not mind losing one of them they must drink water and be satisfied.
 Unfortunately only very few people pant  after the word of God and are willing to sacrifice their time to study the word. Fewer people are willing to leave their secular job for the great commission (Matt 28:20).
   Some of us were eager to learn the word when we first gave our lives to Christ but many have since lost the zeal. They find it difficult to read the Bible, some cannot even pray for 5 minutes without dozing off. If you belong to this group you have to find your first love for Christ. Start by observing morning devotion and asking for guidance before you go out in the morning. Try to attend weekly bible class and get a prayer partner. 
Dearly beloved, let the love of God and eagerness to do his work be paramount to you. Do you have testimonies to share with us. Share in the comments section of this message in my blog spot.

Title : Keys

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 ...
