OUR DAILY MANNA DAILY DEVOTIONAL OCTOBER 15, 2021 (FORGET YOURSELF! RELEASE SOME DEEP WATERS DAILY!)
TOPIC: FORGET YOURSELF! RELEASE SOME DEEP WATERS DAILY!
BASIC SCRIPTURES: PROVERBS 18: 1-8;
1 Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom.
2 A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.
3 When the wicked cometh, then cometh also contempt, and with ignominy reproach.
4 The words of a man’s mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.
5 It is not good to accept the person of the wicked, to overthrow the righteous in judgment.
6 A fool’s lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for strokes.
7 A fool’s mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul.
8 The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.
COLOSSIANS 4:6
6 Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.
MESSAGE
Today and daily as you go out, you are going to meet with dozens of people and you are going to have the opportunity to make an impact in their lives. You will have the opportunity to do something to them that will either build them up or tear them down. One of the best things you can do now is to:
MAKE UP YOUR MIND THAT YOU WILL BUILD UP AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN BEFORE YOU DEPART THIS EARTH. One of the best ways to do this is by speaking words of life. Today’s 1st scripture Vs. 4 make it clear: “The words of your mouth are as deep waters.
Make sure that those words are life-giving water that brings refreshment to people who hear you speak daily. Oh! Your words are deep waters! I love the words of Dr Theodore Reik about making a decision to speak positive words to people everywhere you go:
“There are only two roads that lead to something like human happiness. They are marked by the words…. love and achievement…. In order to be happy with oneself, it is necessary to make at least one other person happy…. The secret of human happiness is not in self-seeking but in self-forgetting. Wow! SELF FORGETTING!
Nothing makes you more valuable to people everywhere you go like the words that you speak. You words are containers. Make sure that they carry life, hope and strength into the hearts of everyone listening to you.
As 2021 ends, FORGET about your own battles for a while and determine to release DEEP WATERS (speak courage and hope) to people you meet daily! And you will NEVER end in DEFEAT or SHAME! Start this week!
PRAYER POINTS: Take Song 2: Stand up for Jesus…
1 Stand up, stand up for Jesus
ye soldiers of the cross;
lift high his royal banner,
it must not suffer loss:
from vict’ry unto vict’ry
his army he shall lead,
’til ev’ry foe is vanquished,
and Christ is Lord indeed.
2 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
the trumpet call obey;
forth to the mighty conflict
in this his glorious day:
ye that are men now serve him
against unnumbered foes;
let courage rise with danger,
and strength to strength oppose.
3 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
stand in his strength alone;
the arm of flesh will fail you,
ye dare not trust your own:
put on the gospel armor,
each piece put on with pray’r;
where duty calls, or danger,
be never wanting there.
4 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
the strife will not be long;
this day the noise of battle,
the next the victor’s song:
to him that overcometh
a crown of life shall be;
he with the King of glory
shall reign eternally.
ODM Prayer Points
Pray generally in your own words as led now.
LORD, I consecrate my tongue for Your glory, honour and humanity in Jesus name. I shall pour forth DEEP WATERS today and daily as I go out in Jesus name.
