THE CHOSEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL DATE: Monday 8th June, 2020. TOPIC: It Is Not An Easy Road TEXT: 2Tim. 2:2-6  MESSAGE Apostle Paul said,  "I have fought the good fight of faith" and in 2Tim 2:3, he said, "Thou therefore endure hardness as a good soldier of Jesus Christ." When soldiers return to their countries, the largest aviation goes to the victorious regiments.  Encomiums are not for those who fought and ran away. Even the wounded and the Dead are always remembered for their valiance and bravery. John the Baptist although the greatest prophet born of a woman was the lease in God's kingdom (Matt. 11; Luke 7:28) for the Holy Spirit has not been poured out.  Jesus was not pleased with John's faithfulness and he was later beheaded. So it will be with Christians who were too fearful to wrest others from the devil's mouth or stand their ground in fierce battles. Those who fought the most battles and suffered great losses for the LORD will receive the highest h...

DAILY MANNA SATURDAY, JUNE 6 2020 It is advisable that you prayerfully and meditatively read the text first DON'T LOSE HOPE!  TEXT: 1 SAMUEL 1:1-13. 🔑 KEY VERSE "And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed unto the LORD, and wept sore" (1 SAMUEL 1:10). Perseverance pays. God knows where we are hurting and He is always moved by our tears of sorrow as a compassionate Father. The story of Hannah is a classic example of God's faithfulness to those who trust Him. Although it seemed her journey to Shiloh really yielded no dividend, she continued. She was always part of the worshippers, though with a heavy heart. Only God knew how much she must have cried for the blessing of the womb. Each time she went to Shiloh, she had one special request - that God should touch her womb. To make matters worse, Peninnah, her husband's second wife, was always in the habit of deriding and reminding her of her barren status. In spite of this, Hannah persevered because she knew only G...

THE CHOSEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL DATE: WEDNESDAY 3 JUNE 2020. TOPIC: DO NOT SELL YOUR CONSCIENCE. TEXT: GEN 25:30-34.  MESSAGE  A lot of people are living in bondage today because they at one time or the other sold their birthright. Their words and personalities no longer count. It is evil or mistake cut across all walks of life. The people of old sold out and generations yet unborn will still fall into this evil. In many areas we have mortgaged our salaries, business, properties because of exigencies. We have bargain blindly or innocently somehow and are falling into the hands of unscrupulous men/women thus loosing our right, properties and credence. From our reading this morning, we are told about the unhealthy bargain between two blood Brothers. Although the event was divinely predestined it was ill fated. The right was  Esau by birth, but Jacob's by promise. It was a spiritual privilege born of greed by both parties, Jacob's desire of the birthright which he ought to obtai...
