FOLLOW YOUR PASTOR

And I will give you shepherd according to My heart, who will feed you with knowledge and understanding.

Jeremiah 3:15

Your pastor is appointed for you to feed you with knowledge and understanding. However you see many Christians who don’t come to church and miss their pastor’s messages that are meant for their benefit.

Learn to attend church faithfully, go to church every Sunday. You need your pastor’s messages. Your pastor is appointed by God for your benefit and he has the word in season for you.

A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver.

Proverbs 25:11

Learn to listen to your pastor’s messages and it will save you a lot of trouble. Many Christians fall into many problems because they don’t follow their pastor’s messages.

God has sent your pastor to you to teach you and lead you in the way of the Lord. When you have problems, your pastor can help you because God has given him the wisdom to help you. A shepherd can help his own sheep. Don’t run to other man of God to help you.

Your own pastor will feed you with knowledge and understanding. That is not to say that you can’t listen to other pastor’s messages. By all means you can listen to other men of God but when your pastor preaches, you should be there because he has a word in season for you.

Your pastor is very important and you should value him. Pray for your pastor, be there when he preaches. Follow his messages. Support him in his work, you need him and he needs you.

And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.

Ephesians 4:11

Thought of the day: I have to value my pastor, pray for him and support him in his work.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for the pastor that You have given to me according to Your heart, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

STRENGTHEN YOURSELF IN THE LORD

Now David was greatly distressed, for the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of the people was grieved, every man for his sons and his daughters. But David strengthened himself in the LORD his God. 1 Samuel 30:6 Things could be going wrong all around you, challenges everywhere, and negative thoughts attacking your mind even to a point of depression. Instead of feeling sorry for yourself and wallowing up in depression, stand up and strengthen yourself in the Lord. We live in the world that has challenges, Jesus said that in the world you will have tribulations, but cheer up because Jesus has overcome the world. Strengthen yourself in the Lord and be strong in the Lord and the power of His might. Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Ephesians 6:10 When you are weak you cannot overcome challenges you face in life. When you are weak you cannot have the victory and take possession your inheritance. You have to be strong. Strong

WAGE WAR WITH PROPHECY

This charge I commit to you, son Timothy, according to the prophecies previously made concerning you, that by them you may wage the good warfare. 1 Timothy 1:18 If you have a prophecy spoken over your life it is time for warfare. It is time to wage war with your prophecy. Take the prophecy spoken over you and put it in your mouth. Speak the same prophecy over your life. Agree with God. Can two walk together, unless they are agreed? Amos 3:3 Speak the same things with God. That is faith, faith speaks the same things with God and we overcome by our faith. Faith will put you over and it will make you an overcomer. Use your faith to wage war. And whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that overcomes the world – our faith. 1 John 5:4 Put up a good fight and fight the good fight of faith. You have to fight in order to win. Wage war with prophecy. If there is no prophecy spoken over you, there is nothing to it. Use the Word and speak the Word over

GOD REWARDS RIGHTEOUS LIVING

The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness; according to cleanness of my hands He has recompensed me. 2 Samuel 22:21 Righteousness according to the Old Testament is righteous living. However, in the New Testament we have received the righteousness which is by faith in Jesus Christ. When David in the Old Testament said that the LORD rewarded him according to his righteousness, he is essentially saying that the LORD rewarded him for his righteous living. Say to the righteous that it shall be well with them, for they shall eat the fruit of their doings. Isaiah 3:10 The above Scripture would then mean: “Say to those who live righteously that it shall be well with them, for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.” God rewards righteous living. It doesn’t matter where you find yourself right now, if you would continue living righteously, living according to God’s Word sooner than later your life would begin to change. You can turn things around as you live righteously.
