BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY “Is there no balm in Gilead, is there no physician there? Why then is there no recovery for the health of the daughter of my people?” (Jeremiah 8:22 NKJV). ****************** QUOTE FOR THE DAY There is indeed balm in Gilead!

THERE IS STILL BALM IN GILEAD!

Dearly Beloved, THERE IS STILL BALM IN GILEAD! “Is there no balm in Gilead, is there no physician there? Why then is there no recovery for the health of the daughter of my people?” (Jeremiah 8:22 NKJV). Jeremiah Chapter 8 is indeed not one of the popular passages of the Bible for the contemporary Christians! It is full of bad prophecies for the people of Judah through Prophet Jeremiah. Prophecies like: the remains of the dead of the people will not rest in peace in their graves (verses 1-2); even some of the dead will not be buried (verse 3); in spite of these, people will prefer to die rather than to live (verse 3); other people will take possession of their wives and properties (verse 10); they shall fall in time of their punishment (verse 12); they will have no fruits to harvest (verse 13); and, poisonous snakes will be sent among them (verse 17). All these bad things would happen to the people of Judah because: the people held fast to deceit and did not do the right thing (verse 5); they refused to turn from their wickedness to God (verse 9); everyone was given to covetousness (verse 10); and even their leaders were not ashamed to mislead them by proclaiming peace where was none (verses 8-11). Prophet Jeremiah mourned this situation (verses 18-21). He wondered why all these things could be happening. He concluded: “Is there no balm in Gilead…?” (verse 22). What is balm of Gilead? A balm is an aromatic, medicinal substance derived from plants. Gilead was a mountainous region east of the Jordan River. It is well known for its spices and ointments. The “balm of Gilead” was, therefore, a high-quality ointment with healing properties made from resin taken from a flowering plant in the Middle East, although the exact species is unknown. The Bible uses the term “balm of Gilead” figuratively as an example of something with healing or soothing powers (see Genesis 37:25; Jeremiah 8:22; 46:11). This balm was so common that the people of Israel even traded with it (see Ezekiel 27:17). Jeremiah could wonder: “How can a people who traded in balm be so sick?” And by inference, “How can the people of God, with the Law in their midst, be so sinful?” With the moral situation of our society like corruption, perversion, lawlessness, fraudulence, malpractices, kidnapping, cultism, drug abuse, religious extremism, terrorism and so on, one would wonder if really there is still balm in Gilead of our society. To make the situation worse, the society, especially the Nigerian society, is more religious and enlightened today than it used to be. Why is it that even our religious leaders are not helping the situation, but rather compounding it? Would God not be justified if He pronounces similar judgments on this contemporary society? No wonder, in spite of all the religious gatherings, prayer mountains, aggressive prayers and the likes that we witness nowadays, the situation is not getting better. “Is there no balm in Gilead…?” There is indeed balm in Gilead! God is still active as in the time past. Our sins and shortcomings are the major hindrances. Prophet Isaiah declared: “Behold, the Lord’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; nor His ear heavy, that it cannot hear. But your iniquities have separated you from your God; and your sins have hidden His face from you, so that He will not hear” (59:1-2 NKJV). Examine your ways. In what ways are you doing contrary to the will of God? There is still balm in Gilead! Are you appropriately applying this balm for your spiritual healing? In His service, Bayo Afolaranmi (Pastor). Prayer Point: Pray that you will continue to apply “the balm of Gilead” for your spiritual healing.

Spiritual Digest for the Day 21Oct2018

BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY "Their father Jacob said to them, 'You have deprived me of my children. Joseph is no more and Simeon is no more, and now you want to take Benjamin. Everything is against me!'" (Genesis 42:36 NIV). ****************** QUOTE FOR THE DAY No matter the situation, everything is not against you! In fact, God is at work in everything that happens to you. Everything is indeed working for you! - Bayo Afolaranmi ******************** PRAYER/ACTION FOR THE DAY Pray that you will be able to patiently wait on God as He is working everything in your favour.

IS EVERYTHING AGAINST YOU?

Dearly Beloved, IS EVERYTHING AGAINST YOU? "Their father Jacob said to them, 'You have deprived me of my children. Joseph is no more and Simeon is no more, and now you want to take Benjamin. Everything is against me!'" (Genesis 42:36 NIV). Jacob had lost his dearest wife, Rachel, when she was giving birth to her second son, Benjamin (see Genesis 35:16-19; 48:7). The other half-brothers of her first son, Joseph, who had been very dear to Jacob, sold Joseph into slavery and deceived their father that a wild animal killed him (i.e. Joseph). They even came with a convincing evidence of bloodstained cloth of Joseph (see Genesis 37:31-35). Undoubtedly, Jacob was still mourning the demise of his dear son when another tragedy struck - Simeon was imprisoned in Egypt for no reason. To compound his distress, the other sons wanted to take Benjamin, the only source of joy for Jacob, as they were about to go back to Egypt, otherwise, they all would die of hunger because of famine. Jacob voiced out in agony: Everything is against me! Indeed, one would agree with Jacob that everything was against him. However, was everything really against him? Absolutely no! God was working behind the scene to make everything works for him. Joseph confirmed this when his brothers came to beg him for the evil they had done him. Hear him: "You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives" (Genesis 50:20 NIV). As a matter of fact, Jacob realized later on the working of God in all these events. He alluded to this in his discussion with Joseph (see Genesis 48). What has happened to you before, and what is happening to you presently that make it seems as if everything is against you? Have you allowed those events to weigh you down? Have you lost all hope because of all these events? Paul has this to say: "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose" (Romans 8:28 NIV). No matter the situation, everything is not against you! In fact, God is at work in everything that happens to you. Everything is indeed working for you! In His service, Bayo Afolaranmi (Pastor). Prayer Point: Pray that you will be able to patiently wait on God as He is working everything in your favour.

BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY “And He looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury, and He saw also a certain poor widow putting in two mites. So He said, ‘Truly I say to you that this poor widow has put in more than all; for all these out of their abundance have put in offerings for God, but she out of her poverty put in all the livelihood that she had’” (Luke 21:1-4 NKJV). ****************** QUOTE FOR THE DAY God’s standard of laudable generosity to His cause is not what we give out of our abundance, but what we give out of our deficiency - what costs us some real sacrifice, that is, sacrificial giving. - Bayo Afolaranmi ******************** PRAYER/ACTION FOR THE DAY Pray that you will be able to give sacrificially to God, His cause, and other people.

THE WIDOW’S MITES

Dearly Beloved, THE WIDOW’S MITES “And He looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury, and He saw also a certain poor widow putting in two mites. So He said, ‘Truly I say to you that this poor widow has put in more than all; for all these out of their abundance have put in offerings for God, but she out of her poverty put in all the livelihood that she had’” (Luke 21:1-4 NKJV). Jesus Christ was sitting in a place in the temple in Jerusalem where He could see people placing their offerings into the temple treasury. Apart from the rich people that offered substantial amounts of money or gifts, a widow came and offered two mites (a mite was the smallest copper or bronze coin among the Jews). Ordinarily, her offering was insignificant, but, Jesus saw its significance, and He pointed it out to His disciples. According to Him, the poor widow gave more than the others because while the others gave out of their abundance, she gave out of her poverty all that she had. People (including me!) have been misapplying the action of this widow for many years. In fact, it has become part of our vocabulary. It is common to hear, “to contribute one’s widow’s mite.” The general meaning of that clause is that one is contributing at least a small amount to a cause. However, from the widow’s example in the Bible, a widow’s mite should be a contribution (especially small) that comes out a generous heart of somebody who has little or nothing to give.  There are some implications from the event of the widow’s mites. One should know that: One, God takes note of all men and all things. All our actions are before His eyes. What we do in public and what we do in private are equally known unto him. Two, God’s standard of laudable generosity to His cause is not what we give out of our abundance, but what we give out of our deficiency - what costs us some real sacrifice, that is, sacrificial giving. The Macedonian churches demonstrated such a kind of giving (see 2 Corinthians 8:1-7). However, this does not mean that God does not accept the offerings of those that have in abundance. Three, God does not despise the humblest offering, if made in sincerity. He loves a cheerful giver (see 2 Corinthians 9:6-7). Four, giving should not be something done out of coercion or subtleness of the so-called recipient. It should be done willingly and wholeheartedly.  What is your attitude towards giving your substance to the cause of the gospel? Can your giving be considered as really a widow’s mite? Or are you giving reluctantly, out of coercion, or by the subtleness of your spiritual leaders? How can you really give your widow’s mite to God in a way that He will appreciate it and reward you for it? In His service, Bayo Afolaranmi (Pastor).  Prayer Point: Pray that you will be able to give sacrificially to God, His cause, and other people.

BIBLE VERSE FOR THE DAY “Do not despise this small beginning, for the eyes of the Lord rejoice to see the work begin, to see the plumbline in the hand of Zerubbabel” (Zechariah 4:10 TLB). ****************** QUOTE FOR THE DAY Do not despise your small beginning! The Lord will make it great. You will do great exploits through that small thing. The present obstruction will become a stepping-stone to your greatness. The greatness will indeed be through you. - Bayo Afolaranmi ******************** PRAYER/ACTION FOR THE DAY Pray that you will not despise your small beginning no matter how small it is, but will always look out for how to maximise it.

DO NOT DESPISE YOUR SMALL BEGINNING

Dearly Beloved, DO NOT DESPISE YOUR SMALL BEGINNING “Do not despise this small beginning, for the eyes of the Lord rejoice to see the work begin, to see the plumbline in the hand of Zerubbabel” (Zechariah  4:10 TLB). David was wandering from place to place as he tried to escape from King Saul that was seeking to kill him. In spite of the fact that he has been secretly anointed to be the next king of Israel with outstanding qualities and performances that made him stood out for the exalted position, he was not safe. It seemed there was no hope for him. He had to even relocate his parents and their household to another country for safety. In this distress, “[some others] who were in distress or in debt or discontented gathered round him, and he became their leader. About four hundred men were with him” (1 Samuel 22:2 NIV). There was tendency for David to despise himself and these people because of their peculiar problems. However, he did not. He became their leader, and trained them to be brave like him. These seemingly despised people later became mighty men of valour that did great exploits for David and the land of Israel. Their exploits were recorded in 2 Samuel 23:8-39. The Lord has made it that the beginning of many great things is always small. No wonder, He told people through Prophet Zechariah that they should not despise the days of small beginnings because the hands of Zerubbabel that started the small things would definitely finish the work. From history, in spite of all odds, that small beginning became something great. Many other great things were once seemingly despised small things in the beginning. What is the small thing you are doing now? What do you consider as a small beginning? Are you leading a seemingly despised small group or project? What and/or who are your present obstacles in making the small thing great? Do not despise this small thing! The Lord will make it great. You will do great exploits through that small thing. The present obstruction will become a stepping stone to your greatness. The greatness will indeed be through you. In His service, Bayo Afolaranmi (Pastor). Prayer Point: Pray that you will not despise your small beginning no matter how small it is, but will always look out for how to maximise it.
