Title: Your Whole Duty - Fear God.

-

“Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.” Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 (KJV)

Devotion: Living in ignorance of your duty is a recipe for failure. Ignorance is the worst state for any child of God to find themselves in (Hosea 4:6). It can rob you of knowing your divine purpose and fulfilling it. 
  Dear beloved, everything you do under the sun will be brought to judgment in the end. Your whole duty on earth is to fear God and obey His commandments. Fearing Him is to give Him priority in your life, hate evil, and live in righteousness. Simply put - fearing God is obedience, reverence. 
  Beloved, when you live your life to please God, you will have nothing to fear or worry about (Proverbs 28:1). There shall surely be challenges because nothing comes cheap. (John 16:33)
But if you are able to fear God and obey His commandments, nothing can stop your blessings here on earth and you will live with Jesus in the big mansion in heaven.(John 14:2) In fact, there will be no limit to the blessings of God in your life. You will also enjoy relatively good health because God will grant you good health. God will make all things work together in your favour.(Romans 8:28) God will make your enemies live peaceably with you because your ways please Him (Proverb 16:7). Hallelujah! You Are Blessed!
 Dear reader, what is your testimony on this? Please share it with us.

Prayer Point: Abba Father, thank You for showing me my whole duty on earth. Indeed, my whole duty on earth is to fear You and obey Your commandments. I dedicate my life to fearing You by loving righteousness, hating sin, and doing what You love, so that when You come to judge, You can reward me in Jesus’ name. Amen!

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 ...
