Seeds Of Destiny Devotional – The God-First Mentality

Topic: The God-First Mentality [Seeds Of Destiny 28 October 2019 Devotional] You cannot put God first and come last in life; you cannot trust in God and rust in life. SCRIPTURE:  But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. –  Matthew 6:33. THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:  You cannot put God first and come last in life; you cannot trust in God and rust in life. The God-first mentality is the mentality that makes God the number one priority of one’s existence. It is the mentality that places kingdom priority ahead of earthly and personal priorities. And when God sees a person who is more passionate about God’s kingdom than his personal pursuit, God baptizes such a person with the mantle needed to impact his generation. Get this: To be interested in the interests of God is to be treasured by God. You cannot trust in God and rust in life. You cannot put God first and come last in life. The reason why many people ...

DCLM Daily Manna – Unrivaled Faith

Topic: Unrivaled Faith [DCLM Daily Manna 28 October 2019 Daily Devotional by Pastor William Folorunso Kumuyi] Text:  Hebrews 11:17-22 (KJV) Key Verse:  “Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure” –  (Hebrew 11:19). MESSAGE: The amazing story of Charles Blondin, a famous French tightrope walker, is a wonderful illustration of what true faith is. Blondin’s greatest fame came on September 14, 1860, when he became the first person to cross a tightrope stretched 11,000 feet (over a quarter of a mile) across the mighty Niagara Falls. People from both Canada and America came from miles away to see this great feat. He walked across, 160 feet above the falls, several times, each time with a different daring feat – once in a sack, on stilts, on a bicycle, in the dark and blindfolded. Then at one point, he asked for the participation of a volunteer. Blondin suddenly stopped and addressed his audience...

Rodrigues solitaire

Rodrigues solitaire . The Rodrigues solitaire (Pezophaps solitaria) was a flightless bird that was endemic to the Indian Ocean island of Rodrigues. With the extinct dodo of Mauritius, it formed a subfamily of the pigeons and doves. The male solitaire was much larger than the female and his plumage was a darker grey-brown. Both sexes had a black band at the base of the hooked beak and a long neck. They were territorial, using bony knobs on their wings in combat. The female laid a single egg that was incubated by both sexes. Their diet included fruits and seeds. The solitaire was first described in detail by François Leguat, the leader of French Huguenot refugees who were marooned on Rodrigues in 1691–1693, but little else was known about the bird until the first of thousands of subfossil bones were found in 1786. Hunted by humans and introduced animals, the solitaire was extinct by the late 18th century. A former constellation was named after it. (This article is part of a featured...
