Title: Live in the Presence of God.

-
‭Psalm‬ ‭27:4‬ ‭KJV‬
[4] One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; That I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, To behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple.
Devotion: The House of the Lord is a beautiful place to be both in the physical structure and spiritual realm. Fortunately God does not live in the house built with human hands rather God lives in our hearts. Therefore the argument that it is impossible to live in the presence(Church) of God in the present day world is not needed. We all have to work, travel or do so many things outside the church building. 
 In the time past the house of the Lord is a large compound and can accommodate farming and animal husbandry, therefore whoever was living in the compound was living in the presence of the Lord. 
 In the present day world living in the presence of God is daily Bible study, daily communication in prayers with God, being filled with Holy Spirit and allowing it to guide your action. It is using every available time to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ to the people near us. Living in the presence of God is appreciating the work of God in nature and praising him for it. 
Dear reader, do you want to live in the presence of God? Start by giving your life to Christ today and attend Bible teaching fellowship or church daily. Your testimony is waiting for you. Hallelujah.

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.

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 ...
