STEWARDSHIP OF INFLUENCE (5)

 DAILY INSIGHT WITH GOD

FRIDAY 23RD OCTOBER, 2020

TEXT: ACTS 17:1-4

TOPIC: STEWARDSHIP OF INFLUENCE (5)

KEY VERSE: ACTS 17:4 

Some of the Jews were persuaded and joined Paul and Silas, as did a large number of God-fearing Greeks and not a few prominent women.

                 Stewardship of influence is using your position and resource attach to it for the kingdom of God. The gospel of Christ relies on how we can use our Stewardship of influence effectively for the advancement of God's kingdom on earth. 

                Paul in his missionary journeys met quite a number of influential people especially in  Macedonia where he was led to in a vision. He  experienced great persecutions in  Macedonia. He was jailed there and faced several oppositions there. In  Macedonia he met men and women of influence like Damaris, Lydia, Dionysius who believed the gospel, get converted and served God faithfully. These people later became great financial support and help to his ministry as they willingly gave their resources to help the poor and to spread the gospel through out the whole region.

                Are you a Believer, do not withhold your influence and resource attach to it for yourself alone. Use it to draw people to the kingdom of God by getting involved in the welfare of the people in the church and your environs. It is easier to witness to people around you if you are always there for them in time of crucial need. 

Prayer: Father help me to use the influence you have given me for the advancement of your kingdom 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.
