TODAY’S TOPIC: Living above family challenges 

Text: Matthew 10: 32-39 (NIV):


"10:32. "Whoever acknowledges me before men, I will also acknowledge him before my Father in heaven.

10:33. But whoever disowns me before men, I will disown him before my Father in heaven.

10:34. "Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.

10:35. For I have come to turn "'a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law--

10:36. a man's enemies will be the members of his own household.'

10:37. "Anyone who loves his father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves his son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me;

10:38. and anyone who does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me.

10:39. Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it."


SHOWER (Reflection):

You must be ready to confront challenges from home, if must worship God. They are made to build your spirit mind and position you for works ahead. It is when you are doing good or insisting for the right things to be done that your family may become your war zone. Live above it by holding unto truth and pursuing it till the end.
