Remember how the Lord your God led you all the way in the wilderness these forty years, to humble and test you in order to know what was in your heart, whether or not you would keep his commands. He humbled you, causing you to hunger and then feeding you with manna, which neither you nor your ancestors had known, to teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord. Your clothes did not wear out and your feet did not swell during these forty years. Know then in your heart that as a man disciplines his son, so the Lord your God disciplines you.Observe the commands of the Lord your God, walking in obedience to him and revering him. For the Lord your God is bringing you into a good land—a land with brooks, streams, and deep springs gushing out into the valleys and hills; a land with wheat and barley, vines and fig trees, pomegranates, olive oil and honey; a land where bread will not be scarce and you will lack nothing; a land where the rocks are iron and you can dig copper out of the hills.When you have eaten and are satisfied, praise the Lord your God for the good land he has given you. Epistle Reading - Philippians 4:6-20Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.I rejoiced greatly in the Lord that at last you renewed your concern for me. Indeed, you were concerned, but you had no opportunity to show it. I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through him who gives me strength.Yet it was good of you to share in my troubles. Moreover, as you Philippians know, in the early days of your acquaintance with the gospel, when I set out from Macedonia, not one church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving, except you only; for even when I was in Thessalonica, you sent me aid more than once when I was in need. Not that I desire your gifts; what I desire is that more be credited to your account. I have received full payment and have more than enough. I am amply supplied, now that I have received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent. They are a fragrant offering, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God. And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.To our God and Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
Danielle opens the day asking for more renewal and strength. Psalm 37:7-10Be still before the Lord : and wait patiently for him.Do not fret yourself over the one who prospers : the one who succeeds in evil schemes.Refrain from anger, leave rage alone : do not fret yourself; it leads only to evil.For evildoers shall be cut off : but those who wait upon the Lord shall possess the land.

The Challenge of Love (A study of the Fruit of The Spirit)Since the beginning of the month we have been looking at the connected life.This is a study of the fruit of the Spirit which every believer in Christ is supposed to exhibit as they grow in Christ.Today we are continuing our study and we are looking atThe Challenge of Love.Galatians 5:22-2322 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy,peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness,faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control.Against such there is no law.The salvation of our souls started with the love of God.The bible tells us that For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son.It all started with love.1John 4:8He who does not love does not know God,for God is love.What is Love?Now there are four different Greek words translated asLove; they areEros.,Storge, Phileo, Agape, Roman 12: 10Be kindly affectionate to one anotherwith brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another;Agape is the very nature of God, for God is love (1 John 4:7-12, 16b).This is why God can command us to love our enemies (Matt. 5:44; Exod. 23:1-5).How do you know that you are demonstrating the Agape love of God?John 14: 21 gives us the answer…Agape love keeps on loving even when the loved one is unresponsive,unkind, unlovable, and unworthy. It is unconditional love.It is used approximately 320 times in the New Testament.John 3:16, 3:35, 13:34, 14:15, 15:9, 15:13; Romans 5:5, 13:8-10; Gal. 5:22; Eph. 3:17, 4:2, 4:15, 5:2, 5:25;I Corinthian 13:4-74 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil;6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.Love is aware and still love anywayThat is why Rom. 5:7-8 tells us7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die. 8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.How do we show this love?Matthew 22:37-4037 Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’[d] 38 This is the first and great commandment.Love’s ChallengeRoman 5: 8 tells us…God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.Love’s ChallengePaul gave us a clue why it might be difficult to demonstrate love in verse 5 .. Paul saidThe love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us at salvation.Why is because Agape love flows from the love of God which receive when we are born again.Is there anyone who want to demonstrate this God like love…Is there anyone who want to take the challenge to demonstrate the God kind of love?You can only do so when you are connected to God through the sacrifice of Christ on CalvaryWill you take the challenge to love today?Pastor Otuno expounds on this and much more on the exciting journey of Fresh Encounter Radio Podcast originally aired on Aor. 15, 2018 on WNQM, Nashville Quality Ministries and WWCR World Wide Christian Radio broadcasts to all 7-continents on this big beautiful blue marble earth floating through space.

Sometimes, it’s hard to know where to start in our spiritual walk. This weekend, we begin a new series of messages called “Every Day.” There are many things that make up our spiritual life and journey, but what are some of the things that we want to see God do in our lives every day?Every Day: "Spend Time with God"#1. Why do I need a quiet time?Psalm 63: 1O God, You are my God; I shall seek You earnestly;My soul thirsts for You, my flesh yearns for You,In a dry and weary land where there is no water.Psalm 42: 1-2As the deer pants, longs for the water brooks, so my soulpants, longs for You, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for theliving God...Mark 1: 35In the early morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up,left the house, and went away to a secluded place, and waspraying there.Psalm 46: 10Be still and know that I am God.Matthew 4: 4...He (Jesus) answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.’ "#2. How do I have a quiet time?I Timothy 4: 7...train yourself for the purpose of godliness...2 basic components of a quiet time...#1. read God’s Word#2. spend time in prayerother helpful hints...-have a time-have a place-be prepared-read the Wordobservation - what does it say?interpretation - what does it mean?application - what does it mean for my life?-talk to God-listen to God-be accountable to someoneWhat’s “The Big Idea” today?I need to spend time with God every day.When will you start that?What will be your first step?Who are you going to tell about it?

Romans 12 1I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. 3For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith. 4For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office: 5So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another. 6Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith; 7Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching; 8Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness. 9Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good. 10Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another; 11Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; 12Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer; 13Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality. 14Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not. 15Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep. 16Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits. 17Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. 18If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. 19Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. 20Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. 21Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
