OUR DAILY MANNA FOR SUNDAY 18TH AUGUST 2019 – THE FROG AND THE BOILING WATER!

Our Daily Manna  For Today

Our Daily Manna daily devotional by Bishop Dr. Chris Kwakpovwe for today is here. Digest the word of the lord and pray believing in his promises.

 

 

TOPIC OF OUR DAILY MANNA FOR SUNDAY 18TH AUGUST IS “THE FROG AND THE BOILING WATER!”

 

Basic scripture: Romans 12: 14-21

 

 

Put a frog into a vessel filled with water and start heating the water. As the temperature of the water begins to rise, the frog adjusts its body temperature accordingly. The frog keeps adjusting its body temperature with the increasing temperature of the water. Just when the water is about to reach boiling point, the frog cannot adjust anymore.

At this point, the frog decides to jump out. The frog tries to jump but it is unable to do so because it has lost all its strength in adjusting to the rising water temperature. Very soon, the frog dies. What killed the frog? The general answer would be: The boiling water! But the truth about what killed the frog as its own inability to decide when to jump out.

We all need to FORGIVE, ENDURE, BE LONG SUFFERING etc, with people and situations, but you need to be sure when you need to GET OUT and MOVE ON! Today’s scripture, Vs 18 says: “if it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.” Note: “If it be possible.” You cannot be at peace with everyone, because A LOT of the QUALITY OF PEACE you enjoy in such relationships, depends on others also not just you!

 

That was why Paul wrote: “IF IT BE POSSIBLE, as much as lieth in you!” So, there are times when people around you are the determinants of peace or war! Jump out of anybody who REDUCING you instead of increasing you! There are times when those around you become TOXIC and not a blessing! At such times, you need to face the situation and take decisive actions. If you allow people to manipulate, exploit, use or abuse you emotionally, financially, spiritually or mentally, they will continue to do so.

 

Jump out of such relationships while you are still alive and have the strength to do so! Yes! Jump out now before REGRETS and HAD-I-KNOWN become your daily songs! Learn from the frog in the boiling water! Pray now! (

 

PRAYER POINTS: Take any song of victory as led!

  1. In your own words, pray about today’s word as led now.
  2.  My Father, my Father, search and X-RAY every man or woman around my life, family and ministry; SHAKE AWAY anyone who will DRY UP my destiny in Jesus name.
  3. I receive GRACE to JUMP OUT of any relationship that is POISONOUS to my star in Jesus name.
  4. Lord God, turn my past failures, mistakes and errors to fortune in Jesus name.
