Title: Proper Evangelism!

-
Oh, give thanks to the Lord! Call upon His name; Make known His deeds among the peoples! Psalms 105:1 NKJV
https://bible.com/bible/114/psa.105.1.NKJV
Devotion: David in his wisdom wrote the verse above which encapsulate the whole essence of the commission of Christ given to us in Matt 28:19. 
 It is not just about witnessing to the people but firstly Praising God for what he has done, doing presently and will do. It involves worshipping God for who He is - mighty God, everlasting father, I am that I am, omnipotent, omnipresent and onmnificent God (add more).
Secondly - Do not shy away from calling the name that is above all others, the name JESUS. In modern times some may not want to offend some others because of religion and therefore say something like "in your name I pray" no you should be bold enough to say "in Jesus name I pray".
 The third element is that you should be able to tell people what God did for you when you call on His name. People want to hear your testimony before they can give their life to Christ. We're are in the age where actions are tied to reward. 
 Dearly beloved as you step out this weekend praise God for His goodness, for everything, pray in His name and give testimony of what God did for you; then invite your audience to accept Christ into their lives. Your miracle is waiting for you.

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 ...
