MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE
The closer you get to God, the more you become yourself.
PROPHETIC WORD

PRAISE & WORSHIP
FIRE SCRIPTURE: John 14: 15-26
Yesterday, we examined some steps we need to follow in order to draw closer to God. We shall examine more of those steps today.
Obedience to God’s word will also determine how close you will be to God. James 1:22, “But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.”
If you study God’s word and memorise the scriptures but you do not obey them, you have succeeded in wasting your time. It is the word of God you obey that draws you closer to Him. God will always partner with the obedient. In John 15:14, Jesus said, “You are my friends if you do what I command you.” Disobedience made King Saul to be rejected by God.
I pray that the grace to be completely, promptly and unquestioningly obedient to God shall be yours from today, in the name of Jesus. Getting the baptism of the Holy Spirit will also bring you closer to God. John 14:26, “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.”
The Holy Spirit is our helper and enabler. He makes the Christian life easy and possible to live. He helps us to align with the will of God. The Holy Spirit leads us always into the plan of God. If you must be close to God, you must not grieve the Holy Spirit or quench Him in your life. The Holy Spirit enables you live above the desires of your flesh, thereby keeping you in God’s presence always. If you follow these steps, you will always be as close as you desire to God.
Beloved, you can get closer to God through faithful giving. The Bible affirms that God loves cheerful and faithful givers. Your commitment to giving shows that you are a builder of God’s Kingdom and a supporter of His redemption work on earth. You will definitely win God’s heart. Giving is an act of worship, obedience and faith. God rewards it handsomely. One of His rewards is to make a faithful and cheerful giver His close friend. You can give your life, time, money, talents and so on back to God to serve Him.
