Text : Exodus 18:13-24
Topic : Heed to counsel
Golden Text :Exo 18:24 Moses listened to his father-in-law and did everything he said.
       In the multitude of counselors there is safety. Moses could have died before he clocked one hundred and twenty years out of burn out and stress if he had not heeded to advice of his father in law.
Jethro counseled Moses to share the work of judging  the people among trusted and capable people while he deal with the difficult case so as to save him from burn out and stress.Moses despite his status as the leader of Israel,skillful, educated, the mouth piece of God to the nation and the number one citizen of the Land with great influence still heeded to counsel from ordinary Shepherd who happened to be his father in law without despising his counsel.
        Counsel is needed in every area of life.Are you struggling in your career, business or relationship ? Are you about giving up on that job or relationship? Before you quit that relationship or job seek counsel from experts in that field. Just a counsel from the right person can save that job or relationship.A good counsel will not compel you, confuse you but it will rather be specific, clear, detailed and give you the confidence to make the right decision. Whatever your status in life, heed to counsel because it is one of the many ways danger and crises can be averted in human lives and relationships.
Prayer: Father surround me with good counselors and help me to need to counsel in Jesus name

Who is your Friend?

 DAILY INSIGHT WITH GOD WEDNESDAY 9TH APRIL, 2025 TEXT: 2 Samuel 13:1-5 [1]And it came to pass after this, that Absalom the son of David had a fair sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her. [2]And Amnon was so vexed, that he fell sick for his sister Tamar; for she was a virgin; and Amnon thought it hard for him to do any thing to her. [3]But Amnon had a friend, whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David’s brother: and Jonadab was a very subtil man. [4]And he said unto him, Why art thou, being the king’s son, lean from day to day? Wilt thou not tell me? And Amnon said unto him, I love Tamar, my brother Absalom’s sister. [5]And Jonadab said unto him, Lay thee down on thy bed, and make thyself sick: and when thy father cometh to see thee, say unto him, I pray thee, let my sister Tamar come, and give me meat, and dress the meat in my sight, that I may see it, and eat it at her hand.

The LORD is in his sanctuary (3)

 DAILY INSIGHT WITH GOD SUNDAY 4TH MAY, 2025 TEXT: Habakkuk 2:20 [20]But the LORD is in his holy temple: let all the earth keep silence before him. TOPIC: THE LORD IS IN HIS SANCTUARY (3)            The presence of God makes a difference between a church and any other place. In God’s presence there is peace, deliverance, and fullness of Joy. In the old Testament, men of faith often raise up an altar to symbolize his presence and praise him there. The church is the modern day temple where there are altars set up to meet God. No one can come to God’s presence and return empty handed.          Many a times when people come to church without experiencing a touch, it is because they do not come with expectations of receiving from God. When there is expectations, it shows you have faith that God is in his temple and you are sensitive to his movements by being silence before God. God speaks right from the beginning of the Church s...

Your vision will speak

 DAILY INSIGHT WITH GOD SATURDAY 4TH JANUARY, 2025 TEXT: Habakkuk 2:3 [3]For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. TOPIC: YOUR VISION WILL SPEAK          Vision is time bound. Writing down of vision, planning, setting out to fulfill the goals are all processes that are necessary before vision can become a reality.        Your vision will definitely speak, if only you can wait for it. Great things do not usually happen suddenly. There is a moment to plant, watered and patiently wait for it to germinate. The bigger the vision, the bigger the time it would take to become a reality. Do not give up on your vision , it will speak at the appropriate time. Prayer: Father help me to patiently wait for me vision to become a reality in Jesus name.
