*Men of Valor think on this about inordinate Erection :* 🌿💫Erection is a state of arousal of sexual desires in a man in preparation for sexual exploit. 🌿💫Having an erection is natural but obeying the dictates of your erection is a choice. 🌿💫For every erection, there's a responsibility. Wise men have control over their erection but foolish men obey their erections.😰 🌿💫Any erection not properly controlled is capable of leading one to early grave☠. 🌿💫Unsolicited erection is no respecter of persons. 🌿💫Anointing, righteousness, strength, age etc has no power over erection, only self-control and self discipline can curb an erection.😊 🌿💫Many became useless fathers because they didn't control their erections. 🌿💫👮‍♂Some are in prison because they followed...

LIVING WATER🌊 DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE 📆 Tuesday, July 31, 2018 CHRIST, THE NEW TEMPLE READ:John 2:13-22 13 And the Jews' passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem, 14 And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting: 15 And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables; 16 And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house an house of merchandise. 17 And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up. 18 Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things? 19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. 20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and...

LUST: WINNING THE BATTLE I have come to realize that one of the greatest problem facing any healthy unmarried young believer today is the issues of sexuality: particularly, the ability not to lust. Everyday we preach against lust and fornication and blast away the topics on the pulpit. Usually, whenever these messages are preached, the preacher keeps his eyes on the young people in the church, probably trying to see if he can catch a glimpse of anyone who might be guilty by their facial expressions or demeanor in response to the message. Most preachers usually see the young people as always doing something wrong. To them every young believer is a suspect of fornication. This message is very easy to preach, especially if you are a married preacher who frequently have sex with your wife. However, most of the preachers do not understand the other side of the coin which is: a young man or woman with sexual urges (which is absolutely normal) trying to control it in the face of a world th...

*CAC DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE 📚* *(THE LIVING WATER)* DATE: Saturday, 28th July, 2018 *TOPIC: GOD’S WIFE* *📖 READ:* Ezekiel 16:8-24 *MEMORISE: He who has pity on the poor lends to the LORD, And He will pay back what he has given (Proverbs 19:17).* *EXPOSITION:* Booker T. Washington once wrote, “Those who are happiest are those who do the most for others.” Today, prophet Ezekiel pictures how God expects us to care for others at the hours of their needs. One cold winter’s day, a 10-year-old boy was standing barefoot in front of a shoe store, peering through the window, and shivering with cold. A lady approached the boy and asked him what he was doing. “I was asking God to give me a pair of shoe,” the boy replied. The lady took him by the hand and went into the store, and asked the clerk to get a pair of socks half dozen for the boy. She then asked if he could give her a basin of water and a towel. He quickly brought them to her. S...

THE REASON WHY PEOPLE GET THEMSELVES INTO WRONG RELATIONSHIP AND MARRIAGE. Many people got themselves into wrong relationship and marriage simply they fail to ask God before they enter. God has the way he direct his children! Therefore every child of God is expected to ask God for direction in all matter of life including relationship and marriage. When you fail to ask God for direction, you will end up in taken your personal option. A lot of people use eye gage in selecting the kind of person that they want to get married to. It is unfortunate that eye gage has being failing a lot of people. It is God that know the heart of the person you don't know;  therefore  ask him. There are a lot of pretender even in the church of God; they pretend to be a child of God in the church in order to get a God fearing man or a woman into their life why they themselves doesn't have the fear of God in their life. Good looking Face and dressing can be deceitful my friends. People go a...

*TODAY ON WORLD MARRIAGE DAY IT'S GOOD TO READ A POST ON FACEBOOK by Michelle Barrack Obama every couple should read*.... HARDCORE TRUTH ABOUT MARRIAGE! 1. There is nothing that threatens the security of a wife than the thought of another woman competing for the attention and affection of her husband. Nothing is more painful. Nothing is more disrespecting. Nothing is more insulting. Nothing is more belittling and degrading. 2. Marriage flourishes when the couple works together as a team; when both husband and wife decide that winning together is more important than keeping score. Good marriages don't just happen. They are a product of hard work. 3. Your children are watching you and forming lasting opinions on love, commitment, and marriage based on what they see in you. Give them hope. Make them look forward to marriage. 4. Husbands: The reason why other women look attractive is because someone is taking good care of them. Grass is always green where it is watered. Inste...

  July 26 Unselfish Service Randy Kilgore If you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed, then your light will rise in the darkness.  Isaiah 58:10 Isaiah 58:6–12 Psalms 40–42; Acts 27:1–26 A small collection of people stood together, dwarfed by the size of the huge tree lying on the lawn. An elderly woman leaned on her cane and described watching the previous night’s windstorm as it blew down “our majestic old elm tree. Worst of all,” she continued, voice cracking with emotion, “it destroyed our lovely stone wall too. My husband built that wall when we were first married. He loved that wall. I loved that wall! Now it’s gone; just like him.” Next morning, as she peeked out at the tree company workers cleaning up the downed tree; a big smile spread across her face. In between the branches she could just make out two adults and the boy who mowed her lawn carefully me...

[7/25, 3:23 AM] ‪+234 806 318 8474‬: *CAC DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE 📚* *(THE LIVING WATER)* DATE: Wednesday, 25th July, 2018 *TOPIC: A FUTURE AND HOPE (I)* *📖 READ:* Jeremiah 29:10-19 *MEMORISE: For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope (Jeremiah 29:11).* *EXPOSITION:* The Book of Jeremiah is all about God disrupting His people’s plans and overturning their dreams. Our memory verse reveals a shocking message from the prophet: that those “left behind” in Jerusalem anchored around the temple and the throne, shouldn’t assume their relative fortune as a sign that God is for them; while those carted off in captivity to Babylon should stop seeing themselves as being under God’ curse as though Israel’s God seems distant from them, and they had been captured away from God’s promises to Abraham. Through Jeremiah, God told the exiles t...

A MUST READ FOR EVERYONE. (Here is my ordeal with Gee boys) I am a 300level university student. I want to advice my fellow students who think they can eat their cake and still have it. Back then in the hostel, I looked like the most miserable. Everything about me looked awkward and out-dated because I refused to do what my fellow female students were doing. I belonged to a fellowship and happened to be the secretary. There are these group of rich young guys who always come to school to pick girls with their exotic cars. Rachel my roommate will never let me be. She would always persuade me to hang out with them. Rachel was so hot. She was using the latest iPhone. In short, Rachel was very rich because of those guys popularly known as Gee guys or Yahoo boys always shower her with lots of money. The persuasion of Rachel became severe the very first day those boys saw the both of us together. One of them tried talking to me but I didn’t give listening ears to him. Rachel we...

Jesus Knows Why July 24, 2018 Read:  Mark 8:22–26 Bible in a Year:  Psalms 35–36; Acts 25 When Jesus had finished saying these things, the crowds were amazed at his teaching.— Matthew 7:28 I have friends who’ve received partial healing but still struggle with painful aspects of their diseases. Other friends have been healed of an addiction but still struggle with feelings of inadequacy and self-loathing. And I wonder,  Why doesn’t God heal them completely — once and for all? In Mark 8:22-26, we read the story of Jesus healing a man born blind. Jesus first took the man away from the village. Then He spit on the man’s eyes and “put his hands on him.” The man said he now saw people who looked “like trees walking around.” Then Jesus touched the man’s eyes again, and this time he saw “everything clearly.” In His ministry, Jesus’s words and actions often amazed and baffled the c...

*Retirement* *1. one day you will retire.* You won't be going to work. You won’t have office power any more. No influence or at best, a reduced influence. Your cash flow will also reduce.! Check retirement date on your payslip. *2. Always  go for your 30days annual leave.* Whatever you do during your leave, is what you will be doing when you retire. If all you do is to sleep or watch TV, then that’s what you are likely do do in your retirement. Remember the book of Proverbs. A little sleep and a little slumber, so shall your poverty multiply. Watching Big Brother Naija will not save you heartache in retirement. Learn a trade or a skill during your leave. It will come handy. Spend your after-office hours learning something. Don’t spend it sleeping, Gossiping, watching TV!! Same goes for your weekend. Make them productive. You will thank yourself for spending your time productively. *3. Invest for your retirement.*.. your children are not retirement investment. ...

*CAC DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE 📚* *(THE LIVING WATER)* DATE: Tuesday, 24th July, 2018 *TOPIC: SET APART* *📖 READ:* Romans 9:10-16 *MEMORISE: As it is written, "Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated." (Romans 9:13)* *EXPOSITION:* The principle of God in the distribution of favours to one and denial of another is mysterious, unclear to many people, but not unfair as some erroneously believe. It was common among the Hebrew to use the terms “love” and “hatred” in comparative sense, where the former implies strong positive attachment, and the latter, not positive hatred, but merely a lesser love, or the withholding of the expressions of affection. Stop a while and read Genesis 29:30-31 to understand this element. Ponder on: He who spares his rod hates his son, But he who loves him disciplines him promptly (Prov. 13:24). No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other (Matt. 6:24a). If anyone comes to Me and doe...

Invest in your woman! There is no beautiful garden without a committed gardener. The reason why she is beginning to look less attractive to you is because you're allowing the weeds outgrow her roses. Pluck them off and see if she won't match up to the other women you're admiring. Don't be quiet when she's carrying her hair undone for weeks. It should bother you if she's been wearing those same torn shoes for months, when she visits you in those shoes uncle how do you feel escorting her to the bus? Stop by the store if she's not smelling nice, the Nivea roll-on and body spray package is not more than two thousand naira, and encourage her to be spraying it fuuufuuufuuu with the fear of God so that it will last.
