“Teacher,” they said to Jesus, “this woman was caught in the act of adultery. The law of Moses says to stone her. What do you say?”

They were trying to trap him into saying something they could use against him, but Jesus stooped down and wrote in the dust with his finger. They kept demanding an answer, so he stood up again and said, “All right, but let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone!” 8 Then he stooped down again and wrote in the dust.

When the accusers heard this, they slipped away one by one, beginning with the oldest, until only Jesus was left in the middle of the crowd with the woman. 10 Then Jesus stood up again and said to the woman, “Where are your accusers? Didn’t even one of them condemn you?”

“No, Lord,” she said.

And Jesus said, “Neither do I. Go and sin no more.” John 8:1-11

If you are riding the waves of life and you want to walk upon waters, you must understand that Jesus is the will maker. He is the greater faith, hope and love combined. Emotions may rise, but will never be able to calculate the amount of faith needed to do the impossible. Leave Yourself with Jesus now.

Who will part the red sea, who will make the new heavens and the new earths, who will raise the dead and make them live and who will opened the eyes of the blind again and again? It is Jesus the will maker.

Let the water splash upon your face, let the grass sprinkle with dew, if you hold on to the strength of the one who could forgive sins. You will be saved. Leave Yourself with Jesus.

Prayer: Jesus I leave myself and my loved ones with you. Thank you father because we are safe and secure in your loving hands.

Topic: My chances are Sure in His hands

Highlights: 

Then they picked up stones. They wanted to throw them at him and kill him. But Jesus hid himself from them. He went away from God's Great House.

John 8:59 

Our fate as God's children is in God's hands. Just like a tree brings forth new leaves, we should leave everything in His hands. Just because those we dearly care about do not seems to understand us does not mean that God feels the same way about each and everyone of us. 

 It might interest you to know that Zechariah 2:8 says that "...for he that touches you touches the apple of God's eye.  

God wants you to clean your eyes and zero your worries from whatever is bothering your mind. He says in Zech 2:10 that you should “Shout for joy and be glad, O Daughter of Zion, for I am coming to dwell among you,” declares the Lord.

If God says you are great, then you will be great. God holds much love for you and your chances are sure in His hands. When tomorrow comes people will rejoice with you.

Prayer: Lord I believe that my chances are in your hands and I will never doubt you. Please help me forgive my doubts and make your blessings flow in abundance on me in Jesus name..Amen. 

Jump Jesus Superman

 

An Emoji Devotional for Fri 24th Sept, 2021

Topic: Jump Jesus Superman 

Highlights: 

For the second test the Devil took him to the Holy City. He sat him on top of the Temple and said, “Since you are God’s Son, jump.” The Devil goaded him by quoting Psalm 91: “He has placed you in the care of angels. They will catch you so that you won’t so much as stub your toe on a stone.”

Matthew 4:5‭-‬6 

You are in the church feeling the worship songs and suddenly a thought comes into you "Jump Jesus Superman! this is your father's house" and suddenly you begin to jump because you believe that in your father's house are many mansions...yeah! it feels good right?

But the time is coming—it has, in fact, come—when what you’re called will not matter and where you go to worship will not matter. “It’s who you are and the way you live that count before God. Your worship must engage your spirit in the pursuit of truth. That’s the kind of people the Father is out looking for: John 4:23

When you hear "Jump" what should first come to your mind is to remember the test of our Lord Jesus when the devil took him to top of the temple and quote Psalms 91 to Him that angels will catch him when he jumps. Did Jesus Jump?

“Give your entire attention to what God is doing right now, and don’t get worked up about what may or may not happen tomorrow. God will help you deal with whatever hard things come up when the time comes.

Matthew 6:34 

When any voice asks you to 'jump' first do what Jesus did "Jesus countered with another citation from Deuteronomy: “Don’t you dare test the Lord your God.”

Matthew 4:7 

My dear friends, don’t believe everything you hear. Carefully weigh and examine what people tell you. Not everyone who talks about God comes from God. There are a lot of lying preachers loose in the world.

1 John 4:1

May the Lord give us wisdom and power in Christ Jesus name. Amen. 

Prayer: Father Lord, please lead me to victory over evil test in Jesus Christ name. Amen

What the Lord do for you is great and big. Lay emphasis on how God has had compassion on you. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God.

It Is Time For Family and Friends

An Emoji Devotions for Wed 22, September 2021

Topic: It is Time for Family and Friends

Highlights: 

But Jesus would not let him. Instead, he said, “Go home to your family and tell them how much the Lord has done for you and how good he has been to you.”

Mark 5:19 

Someone got delivered from mobs of evil Spirit and would have loved to go with Jesus. He begged actually but he had "Hey man, go home to your family and friends and tell them how much the Lord has done for you". Before he became a mad man, he had family and friends who had done their best to see him recover. They must have been the ones to tie him down with ropes and chains but he broke the chains and snap the ropes. Jesus knew that the first set of people to be very happy about the recovery of their psycho brother is his family. The Lord wants him to go home first and tell them what the Lord has done so as to share joy and happiness around his community.

Dear reader, what has the Lord done for you? The Facebook, Twitter and other social media today are been used to find followers and subscribers. Only few uses these platform to really share stories that can bring joy and happiness from the Lord. There is a way you will share your story and it will bring Joy and happiness to those around you. This is the kind of active service the Lord commands. 

"The man went back and began to preach in the Ten Towns area about what Jesus had done for him. He was the talk of the town."

Mark 5:20 

I believe that the man followed the instructions of Christ. He did not tell other stories except about what the Lord has done for him. It may sound too simple but when we really tell people what the Lord has done for us. They will spread and share the good news to than ten cities of the world beyond our expectations. Give it a try. Spread the good news of joy and happiness to your friends today.

Prayer: Lord give me the right words that will testify about you in my life and that will bring joy and happiness to my family and friends in Jesus name. Amen.

You Can Not Escape Jesus

 

An Emoji Devotional for Mon, Sept 20, 2021

Topic: You Can Not Escape Jesus

Highlights:

“Lord, who are you?” I asked. He said to me, “I am Jesus from Nazareth. And you are fighting against me.”

Acts 22:8 

Thousands walking across the streets and thousands driving along the traffic. We all chase different things. On our pathways, we met Jesus. How did you hear about Jesus? It is certain that some would have met Him in Church while some listened to their radio and heard about Him. There is one simple truth "No one on earth will escape Jesus including you". So, have you accepted him yet or you are still delaying your salvation. It is better now than later because at times 'delay is evil'. 

Jesus once said in Matthew 19:29‭-‬30 

"Some people have left their home. Or they may have left their brothers or sisters. Or they may have left their mother or their father. Or they may have left their wife or their children or their fields. They have done that because of me. God will give those people many more things than they have left behind, even 100 times more! And after they die, they will live for ever with God. But many people who are very important now will become the least important. And many people who are not important now will become very important then.’"

The good news is "anyone who encountered Jesus, accepted him as their Lord and savior and walked in His commands never regrets such decisions".

If you are proving stubborn and you did not want to accept Jesus, someday you would wish you have made a decision very long time ago and accepted Him as your Saviour. It is never too late. Jesus is still able to turn nothing into something. He can restore wasted years provided you quickly make your choice before you get carried away. 

No one, I said, No one, can escape Jesus including you. What to do is to accept Jesus as your Lord today, repent of your bad ways and ask Him to forgive your sins and be your wise protector from today. If you have already been saved, please don't go back to a sinful life because judgement is around the corner waiting for who will misbehave. 

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. Hebrews 13:8

Prayer: Lord Jesus be my life, be my breath and my everything. If I have wronged you please forgive me. I accept that you are the boss and I will always love you forever. Let your grace be with me In your name I pray. Amen

Someone is not Afraid

 

An Emoji Devotional Sun 19th September, 2021

Topic: Someone is Not Afraid

Highlights: 

Then Caleb silenced the people before Moses and said, “We should go up and take possession of the land, for we can certainly do it.” Numbers 13:30

Elisha prayed, and said, “Lord, please open his eyes, that he may see.” the Lord opened the young man’s eyes, and he saw; and behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire around Elisha.

2 Kings 6:17

Everything is quiet right now everywhere and sometimes the buzz of the music is not that entertaining because people's eyes are opened to the blind side of God's presence. When I say blind side, you may not understand. It doesn't mean that God is not present but you did not notice. It is not easy to notice that something is casting shadow on our mind. Hey! Have you ask God to open your eyes like Caleb and Elijah. 

God opened the eyes of Caleb in Numbers 13:27 when the spy who went into Jericho was giving account to Moses, they were telling the people that though land was flowing with milk and honey yet there were warriors, giants and strong walls guarding it. Caleb was a man with vision; He knows that God's presence will give them Victory in their bid to get the promised land. 

Elisha was surrounded with armies and his servant was afraid but He paid that God will open the eyes of His servant and when his eyes was opened, they saw walls of fire of God.

We all need to motivate ourselves with God's promises for us to boost our confident in the present times. Therefore I urge all our readers to keep their positive mind active. See beyond the obstacles around you. Keep you eyes focus on God's promises.

When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person. Job 22:29

Prayer: Dear Lord I have no one but you. Please open my eyes to see your presence around me. Let your spirit motivate me to enjoy your goodness always in Jesus name. Amen
