Seeds Of Destiny Devotional – The Keeping Force Of The Blessing

Dunamis’ Seeds of Destiny 24 January 2020 Devotional by Pastor Paul Enenche – The Keeping Force Of The Blessing Topic:  The Keeping Force Of The Blessing God’s commitment to blessing you is also His commitment to keeping you. SCRIPTURE:  The LORD bless thee, and keep thee. Numbers 6:24 THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:  God’s commitment to blessing you is also His commitment to keeping you. One of the strongest forces on earth is the force of the Blessing, the Blessing of God. The Blessing of God is like a two-edged sword that exhibits two-dimensional forces – the Blessing force and the keeping force (Numbers 6:24). God does not bless you and then leaves you to be destroyed by the enemy. The Blesser is also the keeper. The truth is,the Blessing of God has so much to offer. However, due to the ignorance of this understanding, the full dividends of the Blessing of God are not being maximized by many children of God. Divine Blessing goes beyond material or financial possessions or increase; the

DCLM Daily Manna – Worthy Partakers Of The Lord’s Supper

Topic: Worthy Partakers Of The Lord’s Supper [DCLM Daily Manna 24 January 2020 Daily Devotional by Pastor William Folorunso Kumuyi] Text:  1 Corinthians 11:17-34 17 Now in this that I declare unto you I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse. 18 For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it. 19 For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you. 20 When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eat the Lord’s supper. 21 For in eating every one taketh before other his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken. 22 What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not. 23 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the sa

Libya: Why 'Too Many Cooks in the Kitchen' Could Inhibit a Peace Deal

[The Conversation Africa] Libya has been deeply unstable, with outside powers providing support to rival armed factions since Muammar Gaddafi was toppled in a 2011 uprising.

After Anthony Joshua Defeat, Andy Ruiz And Trainer Part Ways

Andy Ruiz Jnr has parted ways with his trainer, Manny Robles, following his rematch loss to Anthony Joshua. The Mexican was outclassed by the British heavyweight in Saudi Arabia in December as he lost via a unanimous decision, gifting his titles back to Joshua after a stunning upset last summer. Ruiz stopped Joshua in Madison Square Garden last June to claim the IBF, IBO, WBA Super and WBO belts, but he admitted to overeating and partying in the aftermath of his historic win, and Robles said the split was inevitable.  Speaking to ESPN, Robles said Ruiz had been out of control in the build up to the crucial rematch, with the man himself admitting he 'wished he had taken it more seriously'. But he added that the relationship was never going to work going forward because Ruiz 'wasn't listening'. He said, “I've seen it coming, I'll be honest with you. Andy was just doing whatever he wanted to do. The dad, obviously with him being the manager, he jus

Decipherment of ancient Egyptian scripts

Decipherment of ancient Egyptian scripts . The decipherment of ancient Egyptian scripts was accomplished in the early nineteenth century by several European scholars, especially Jean-François Champollion (pictured) and Thomas Young. Egyptian writing, which included the hieroglyphic, hieratic and demotic scripts, ceased to be understood in the fourth and fifth centuries AD. Afterwards, it was believed that Egyptian scripts were exclusively ideographic, representing ideas, rather than phonetic, representing sounds. The Rosetta Stone, discovered in 1799, bore a parallel text in hieroglyphic, demotic and Greek, but deciphering the Egyptian text through its Greek translation proved difficult. Young, building on the work of Antoine-Isaac Silvestre de Sacy and Johan David Åkerblad, identified several phonetic signs in demotic. In the early 1820s Champollion realised the hieroglyphic script had both phonetic and ideographic elements. He identified the meanings of most phonetic hieroglyphs and
