Title: Do What it Says.

-
But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: for he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
James 1:22‭-‬24 KJV

Devotion: Good day to you out there. Over the yuletide and new year period you probably heard a lot about Jesus and his good news and is time to start work now. Well that is great but you need to go a step further - DO WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS.
 Over Christmas we learnt that God is Love and that Jesus loves you and me, now it is our turn to love just as Jesus loves us and live a life of obedience as Jesus obeyed His father God. 
  We can only be Christian (follower of Christ) if we live and do things like he did. So whatever we have learnt from the Bible or heard from a teacher of the word let us put it into use. The ordinary person on the street have no time to read the Bible but they watch us who confess Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour. They quickly notice when we do something contrary to what the Bible says therefore we must live above board all the time so that our lives will not make anybody stumble. 
 I urge you dear reader to Do what it says henceforth. The Lord bless you. Have a blessed new year in Jesus name. Amen. Hallelujah. Please kindly share the message with friends and tell us your opinion and testimonies. Good bless you all.

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. Kindly share your thoughts with us! http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=kjvstudybible.bible.kjv.bibleverses.bibleoffline

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 ...
