RESTORATION TODAY
SATURDAY 20TH MAY 2017
BY PASTOR DR. G.O. OLUTOLA JP.
THEME: WHERE DO YOU GO FOR ADVICE?
But refuse profane and old wives fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness. 1 Timothy 4: 7.
Each day we choose to let either the world of God?s Word shape our thoughts and actions.
Although most of us are quick to say we believe the Bible, sometimes our actions do not match our words. Where do you go when you want advice about a big decision or lifestyle choice? Internet and social media offer a wealth of information that can be either beneficial or harmful. Co-workers, family, and friends are also readily available sources of counsel, but do they speak with worldly reasoning or godly wisdom?
Our only sure resource for true and wise guidance is The Word of God. Yet sadly, we do not always seek direction in its pages but instead often rely on human intelligence and personal preference. Hebrews 4: 12 describes God's Word as living and active and sharper than two-edged sword?, which pierces into the deepest parts of the soul.
Those who refuse to surrender to its penetrating work essentially dethrone God from His rightful place in their life. But those who are willing to be nourished by Scripture, accepting its reproof and correction, will discover the riches of a life of faith.
ACTION POINTS:
?? Letting the World be your guide will bring about changes in our thought, attitude, and behavior.
SCRIPTURES:
Hebrews 4: 12
Psalm 119: 9, 11.
PRAYER POINTS:
1. Father, for the gift of Your Word.
2. Lord, help me to continually seek counsel from Your Word in the name of Jesus.
3. Father, give the Spirit of obedience in the name of Jesus.
4. Lord, I claim total victory over every spirit of negative counsel in the name of Jesus.
DAILY BIBLE READING:
Number 33
