The ear that listens to and learns from the life-giving rebuke (reprimand, censure) Will remain among the wise. Proverbs 15:31 AMP If you listen to correction and accept constructive criticism, you will have a good life. You will be an honoured guest among the wise. You will be on a great path in life. Malicious correction is made from a place of envy. Constructive criticism is done in love, and with growth in view, appreciate it.  #FiercelyLoved❣️

Commit your works to the Lord [submit and trust them to Him], And your plans will succeed [if you respond to His will and guidance].

Then the hand of the Lord came upon Elijah [giving him supernatural strength]. He girded up his loins and outran Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel [nearly twenty miles]. 1 Kings 18:46 AMP The Hand of The Lord came upon Elijah, and He received supernatural strength.  May The Hand of The Lord rest mightily upon you.

Drink from the brook and eat what the ravens bring you, for I have commanded them to bring you food.” 1 Kings 17:4 NLT Ravens are opportunistic in nature, and would even hide food from their fellow raven, yet, God used them to feed Elijah.  I decree today, may you find help where and when you don't expect.  May God cause everyone to favour you. May He use everything to care for you. May heaven be opened unto you. May doors of blessings and favour never be shut against you. May all of God's pronouncement on your life come to manifestation.  Amen. Keep enjoying God's Grace. #FiercelyLoved❣️

Paul and Silas, undaunted, prayed in the middle of the night and sang songs of praise to God, while all the other prisoners listened to their worship. Acts 16:25 TPT How do you react in the face of adversity? Do you cower and shake? Do you lament and resign to fate? Or.. Do you stand tall and stand strong? Do you lift up your voice in worship and prayers? Do you channel your strength from God and face it headstrong? Remember, your victory was already assured in Christ. Don't lose it simply because of doubt and fear. Do not allow yourself be intimated, you have got The Ultimate Power of God behind you. Be Dauntless in the face of adversity! #FiercelyLoved❣️

That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep his commandments Psalms 78:7 KJV Put your hope in God. Keep his statutes.  Never stop talking about His goodness, so others can learn to trust Him too. Your testimony of who God is to you, and all He has done for you, may be the encouragement someone else need to keep going. Some people's first encounter with God will be through you, so, never stop sharing God's glorious miracles. #FiercelyLoved❣️

But then I recall all you have done, O Lord ; I remember your wonderful deeds of long ago. Psalms 77:11 NLT Never stop recounting God's blessings and faithfulness.  Choosing to remember His wonderful deeds will not only make you thankful, but it will help you realise how blessed you are, and it will also encourage you during your trying times. Recall all what God has done, encourage yourself and others with His glorious deeds.  Count your blessings, and you will be surprised by how TRULY BLESSED you are. #FiercelyLoved❣

Just as a father loves his children, So the Lord loves those who fear and worship Him [with awe-filled respect and deepest reverence]. Psalms 103:13 AMP It matters not if you have a living father or not, or an (in)active one.  God is recklessly in love with you. He feels so strongly about you. You are His most beloved child, and He's got you covered.  Revel in The Father's Love, and enjoy all the perks that comes with being His. #FiercelyLoved❣

It’s much better to live simply, surrounded in holy awe and worship of God, than to have great wealth with a home full of trouble. Proverbs 15:16 TPT People misunderstand this verse to mean God doesn't want godly people to be rich. Pretty far from the truth. God wants you to be wealthy, so you can propagate the gospel, and also support others who are doing the same. He wants you to flourish, so you can be a blessing to others. He wants you to thrive, so others would want to know Him. He just wants you to do it legitimately, and through His leading. God never created you to be small or poor, don't allow limiting mindset keep you down. Flourish, Thrive, and Expand on all sides. You are the Child of The Most High, you are Royalty, live as one, He expects nothing less of you. #FiercelyLoved❣

We thank you, O God! We give thanks because you are near. People everywhere tell of your wonderful deeds. Psalms 75:1 NLT Father, we thank You for You are always near.

We thank You for fighting our battles. We thank You for strength. We thank You for protection. We thank You for we have so much to be thankful for. We thank You for You are worthy of it all. We thank You for the good work you have started. We thank You for You are faithful to complete it. We thank You for the opportunity to be alive to thank You. Help us to NEVER stop proclaiming Your wonderful deeds.  Thank You for being A Great Father! #FiercelyLoved❣

With your glory you opened up springs and fountains, then you spoke and the ever-flowing springs of Jordan dried up so we could cross over. Psalms 74:15 TPT God is going to break open fountains, and cause streams to gush out for you to have your fill. He will dry up wild flood waters for your sake. He will slay mighty giants and dragons that try to contend with you. His Light will forever shine along your path.  Amen! #FiercelyLoved❣

A soft and gentle and thoughtful answer turns away wrath, But harsh and painful and careless words stir up anger. Proverbs 15:1 AMP Be kind to people, for you don't know what they are going through. Your kindness can dispel anger, and heal a hurting heart. Respond gently when you are confronted with issues, and you could not only defuse anger, but also avert calamity.  Let your words be pleasing and acceptable. #FiercelyLoved❣

My health may fail, and my spirit may grow weak, but God remains the strength of my heart; he is mine forever. Psalms 73:26 NLT There is only so much you can do on your own. Sometimes you fall, you get weary, you get disappointed.  But when you trust in God, His strength makes your weakness perfect. You have His strong arms carrying you through the storm.  His bright eyes seeing you through the dark night.  His glorious presence protecting you always. And His love covering you endlessly. God is all that you need, make Him your portion.  #FiercelyLoved❣

The [reverent] Fear-of- God  [that leads to obedience and worship] is a spring of living water so you won’t go off drinking from poisoned wells. Proverbs 14:27 MSG&AMP Have you found yourself so worried and perturbed, then you decide to start worshipping or praising God, and you suddenly feel light, as though a huge weight has been lifted off you. Worshipping God opens a fountain of life within you, it frees you from worry and bitterness, and it empowers you to march on to victory.  Consistently stand in awe of God, and you will never drink from the poisoned well of bitterness or death. #FiercelyLoved❣

No one can deny it—God is really good to Israel and to all those with pure hearts. But I nearly missed seeing it for myself. Psalms 73:1 TPT Despite what you may be going through, God is good to you.  At times, it may be difficult to realise God's goodness because you are overwhelmed by life's challenges. But know that it is by His Grace that you are not consumed. Sometimes when you look at the lifestyle of other people, you may feel dejected and hopeless, however, do not subscribe to the devil's lies. Challenges are temporary, but your victory is assured in Christ.  Don't be so focused on your challenges, that you miss out on God's goodness. No matter your circumstance, know this without a doubt, GOD IS FOREVER GOOD TO YOU. #FiercelyLoved❣

I will shout and sing your praises for all you are to me— Savior, lover of my soul! I’ll never stop telling others how perfect you are while all those who seek my harm slink away ashamed and defeated! Psalms 71:23 - 24 TPT Never stop singing God's praise. Never stop telling of His  perfect and wonderful works.  Tell the world how He saved and delivered you from the clutches of darkness.  How He fights for you and ensures your victory.

It’s criminal to ignore a neighbor in need, but compassion for the poor—what a blessing! Proverbs 14:21 MSG Never belittle a neighbour or a friend in need. Be kind to those who are in need, then you will prosper. Be gracious and merciful to them, and God's favour and blessings will be yours.   Don't despise those who are less fortunate than you are, for you were blessed to be a blessing. #FiercelyLoved❣

My life is an example to many, because you have been my strength and protection. Psalms 71:7 NLT May God make your life a wonder to many. May many marvel at your success. May God continually protect you and all that's yours.  May you be filled with God's praise all day long. May your life reflect His glory. Amen!! #FiercelyLoved❣

David said to him, “Do not be afraid, for I will certainly show you kindness for the sake of your father Jonathan, and will restore to you all the land of your grandfather Saul; and you shall always eat at my table.” 2 Samuel 9:7 AMP Generally, people are so quick to talk about the sins of the father affecting the children. How about the good deeds of the father.  Just like Mephiboseth, some of us are enjoying the good deeds of our parents today.  How about sowing seeds of goodness for our own children too.  The Psalmist said he has never seen the righteous forsaken nor his CHILDREN begging. Never stop being good to others, for you don't know when you will get your reward, or which one of your future generation will benefit from it. Sow a seed of kindness today, so your offspring can harvest it tomorrow. #FiercelyLoved❣

I will be his father, and he will be my son. If he sins, I will correct and discipline him with the rod, like any father would do. 2 Samuel 7:14 NLT I always wondered why David's case was different. Yes, he was a man after God's heart, He was quick to ask for forgiveness and change his ways. But more than all what he did, it was because God called him "Son".  A Yoruba proverb says, no matter how wicked a child is, you don't give the child to the lion as a meal. As a believer, you are a son/daughter of God. Being God's own does not mean He won't correct or discipline you, it just means His love will continue to abound, and He would never leave you at the mercy of the enemy, no matter what you do. Also, you must take to correction. You should welcome His discipline and stop doing things that break His heart.   The gift of sonship is the highest calling in The Kingdom, never take it for granted. #FiercelyLoved❣

But everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.’ ” Acts 2:21 TPT Call out to God, He will help and deliver you. Don't let who you think you are, or what you think you have done, deter you from calling to Him.  He wants to hear you, He is ready to help you, He wants to turn things around for you, just reach out to Him today and ask for help. He is ALWAYS ready to help. #FiercelyLoved❣

Now is the time! For the Lord has said, ‘I have chosen David to save my people Israel from the hands of the Philistines and from all their other enemies.’” 2 Samuel 3:18 NLT Now is the time for the manifestation of all that God have said about you. If God can use Abner for David, then He can use anyone for you, regardless of their rank or differences. I decree that God will bring all His promises for you to fulfilment this month. He will cause all things to fall in place. There shall be rivers in your deserts. You will bring forth fruit for all to see. May God show up mightily for you. May He show off with your life. May your life glorify Him. May your light shine brighter than ever. Amen!! Happy June! #FiercelyLoved❣

Nothing of theirs was missing whether small or great, sons or daughters, spoil or anything that had been taken; David recovered it all. 1 Samuel 30:19 AMP May nothing of yours be missing, no matter how insignificant. May you recover all that you have lost. May there be a restoration. May God turn things around for your good. Nothing broken, nothing missing, and so much more, shall be your testimony. Amen!! #FiercelyLoved❣

Praise the Lord; praise God our savior! For each day he carries us in his arms.  Psalms 68:19 NLT Give all your worries to God. Give him EVERYTHING that cause you pain, He won't judge nor complain. He does not want you to handle it all alone, He wants to help, while you relax and trust Him. He wants to save you from the troubles of this world; give it all to Him, and let Him take care of you.  Blessed be The Lord God, who DAILY carries your burden.  You Are Cared For!! #FiercelyLoved❣
