Title: You need Holy Ghost.

-
But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judæa, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
Acts 1:8 KJV
Devotion: There's nothing more important than having the right type of power. A powerless (fueless) car cannot move from point A to B, neither can an hungry man do anything reasonable. The Holy Ghost is the Christian power, the driving force and food we need to live a fulfilling Christian life.       Apostle Peter was timid and denied Jesus at the prosecution even before a house maid.(John 18:15-18; 25-27) But when Peter received the Holy Ghost he was fired up and boldly preached the good news of God. He won 3000 converts in a single day (Acts 2:41).
  Don't be a powerless Christian pray and 
 pray (1 Thesalonians 5:17) till you are filled with the Holy Ghost  the apostles tarried in the upper room before they got power. (Acts 2). You also have to make regular request for Holy Ghost because it is like the fuel in your car, it will get used up with time so you b need to replenish it. 
  We wrestle with powers of dark places who neither sleeps nor rests day and night so we must be on our toes regularly in prayers in the Holy Ghost (2Cor10:3-4) The Holy Ghost will fight our righteous fights, guide and guard our hearts always. It is almost impossible to live a successful Christian life without Holy Spirit, therefore I plead with you to actively seek it and permit it to live in you and you will become an overcomer here on earth and you will make heaven.
  Dear reader, what is your take on this? Hallelujah. I am your friend Dr Joel Olanrewaju, visit my page at ojaysjoel.blogspot.com for more devotionals.

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 ...
