Title: Light of the World!

-
Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
Matthew 5:14 KJV
https://bible.com/bible/1/mat.5.14.KJV
Devotion: When you give your life to Christ and live a righteous life you're called Christian which means small Christ. Jesus Christ himself is a super star if I can use the word. There's no where He goes that multitudes in thousands will not follow him. Jesus cannot hide Himself from the people. He is a bright star, a light unto the world.
  You a small Christ also cannot hide, it is impossible to deny your Christianity unless you were deceiving yourself before. If truly your are a Christian it will manifest in your character, speech, dressing and humility. As ordinary layman people who do not know me had met me and called me pastor, I just say amen that I'm not yet a pastor but God will make me His servant in that wise one day since it is your prayer for me. You cannot hide just as you cannot light a lamp and cover it, so as a genuine Christian you cannot hide, people will see you and appreciate Christ in your life. 
 Dear reader if you have not been called pastor or born again Christian there's need to reexamine your Christianity and make corrections. Your light must shine to the world for everyone to see. Whatever it is that your are still doing and does not give glory to God stop doing it now. It could be your short dress, open neck dresses, visit to beerpallour, the friends you keep, the jokes you make etc. As you do call the Holy Spirit of God to guide you unto righteousness so that your light, Christ's light in you will shine bright for the world to see. 
 Please share your thoughts on this with us. Happy Sunday to you all. Hallelujah.

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 ...
