THE LIVING WATER
DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE
Friday, April 26, 2019
TOPIC - STAY ON THE NARROW WAY
Read: Matthew 7:13,14
MEMORISE: Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it_ (Matthew 7:13).
EXPOSITION
Some things sometimes seem funny and laughable, but a wise man garnered wisdom from such laughable situation. A lunatic may look like a fool, but sometimes utters words of knowledge. A pastor once attempted to preach to some young men whose habit was to usually gather in an uncompleted building to smoke hemp and do some other ungodly things. Having reluctantly and indifferently heard the pastor, this was their reply: “Pastor, don’t worry yourself about our salvation. We know where we are going. We know our destination is hell!” Of course, there are some sinners whose hearts have become stony and rocky – hardened. It will take intervention of the Holy Spirit to break such. The fearful thing again was their conclusion “Pastor, we know we are going to hell, but strive not to be there. Ensure you are not going to be in hell with us!”
If you are a real candidate of heaven, you ought to be sober at that remark. Some already know their fate in eternity. While you endeavour to snatch them from the pit of hell, do more to ensure, after you have saved others, you are not lost *(1 Cor.9:27).
“He that is down needs not fear fall.” This is an old proverb that should guide all Christians. You are the one who needs to be most careful, watchful and on the alert. Why? The devil, your chief mischief-maker and foe, roars like a lion, seeking whom to devour! Disallow and desist from him today and always. This is how you will not join sinners in their destined lake that burns with fire and brimstones *(Rev. 21:8).
PRAYER POINTS
1. Lord, make me steadfast in You and all that concerns You.
2. Lord, help the contemporary Christians not to further jettison the old time religion.
3. Father, help leaders of churches not be taken away by so called modernization and globalization trend that are inimical to Christian growth.
EXTRA READING FOR TODAY: 1 Samuel 7:8 – 10:5; Luke 17:24 – 18:8
