Topic: Appointment With The Master [Seeds Of Destiny 25 October 2019 Devotional] It is the consciousness of consequence that imparts caution to action. SCRIPTURE:  And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. –  Revelation 22:12 T HOUGHT FOR THE DAY:  It is the consciousness of consequence that imparts caution to action. Appointment can be understood as an arrangement to meet someone at a particular place and time. It is important to note that appointment goes hand-in-hand with preparation – be it a divine appointment or an earthly appointment. The question is, how prepared would you be if our Master Jesus Christ gives you an appointment to meet with Him today? If the King of Kings summons you now, could you meet Him the way you are now? If you were told that Jesus Christ wants to see you now, would you meet Him with your conscience that is smeared with compromise? Would you be meeting Him holding grud...

Topic: A Durable Foundation [DCLM Daily Manna 25 October 2019 Daily Devotional By Pastor William Folorunso Kumuyi] Text : Acts 9:23-31 (KJV) Key Verse:  “Then the disciples took him by night, and let him down by the wall in a basket” –  (Acts 9:25). You know the day by the morning, according to an age-old adage. That is to say that what dawn offers a person tends to hint you of what will happen throughout the rest of the day. Similarly, what you experience at the start of your career, lays the foundation that would determine the trajectory of your mission. That was the case with the ministry of Paul the apostle. His genuine conversion bore fruit as he began to preach that the message of the crucified Man of Galilee was the way of salvation and not the Judaism he had been upholding. He “confounded the Jews… proving that this is the very Christ.” He got an endurable beginning that came in the form of persecutions. Persecution set in quite early in his ministry. As ...
