*OUR DAILY MANNA DEVOTIONAL*
_A DAILY DEVOTIONAL BOOKLET FOR CHAMPIONS_
*DATE: FRIDAY 27TH SEPTEMBER, 2019*
*TOPIC: THE TWO HORSES! DRAW COURAGE FROM WITHIN!*
*BASIC SCRIPTURE: LUKE 1:26-37*
Tommy Lasorda told his colleagues: *“Th difference between the possible and the impossible is a man’s determination.”* Once upon a time, there were two men who owned horses, which they rode daily! On the route, they would ride around the city.
There was however a ditch about eight feet wide which they had to cross. Once of the horses had no problems at all in crossing the ditch, but the second horse had fallen twice before crossing. As this daily routine continued, on a particular day, after a while, coming up to the ditch and watching the strong horse jump over that ditch, boldness came on the second horse rider! It occurred to him in his inner man, that he too could jump the ditch!
So, with *grim determination,* the second horse scaled that ditch and from that day, the horse never stopped at that ditch again. Life is so much like the two horses! Like the weak horse, when we are confronted with trials or tough situations, we just feel like we can’t make the difference!
As a matter of fact, many times we wish there were no problems because indeed, the furnace is not a garden of roses! *BUT NEVER FORGET THAT THERE IS COURAGE WITHIN YOU BECAUSE THE HOLY GHOST IS WITHIN YOU! In any trial, look for the courage within and claim strength to wait on the Lord to enable you cross over!* Remember your God, “JEHOVAH OVER DO,” your ALL-WISE GOD, will never allow you to pass through a trial bigger than you!
Ah! In today’s scripture, Mary asked the angel: “How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?” Then behold the answer, “…The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee and the power of the Highest shall *overshadow thee.”* Overshadow means to “come upon and dwell within.” *OVERSHADOW is GRACE from your “OVER DO” God!* That is the secret of winning over life’s battles! Learn how to pray, fast, use the *unfailing promises pages (38-39)* and let the Holy Ghost overshadow your inner man! When you know that the Holy Ghost is dwelling within you, you will fight discouragement/depression, because your God cannot lose a battle! Close with Vince Lombardi: *“The spirit, the Will to win and the Will to excel are the things that endure: these qualities are so much more important than the events that occur.”* Draw courage from within!
*LEKKI ANOINTING AND FIRE SERVICE IS TOMORROW Time: 8am. THEME: “I SHALL RECOER ALL.”* Bring a list of what you DESIRE TO RECOVER! *Venue is OUR DAILY MANNA STREET, Beside Enyo Station, 4th roundabout, Lekki. I SHALL BE PHYSICALLY PRESENT TO AGREE WITH YOU VIA LAYING ON OF HANDS! It Is Your Hour!*
*PRAYER POINTS:* Take a song of worship to your God now.
1. Lift your hands and declare aloud: “The Holy Ghost is within me! There is courage within me! I refuse to bow to self-pity, discouragement, depression or fear! The greater ONE is in me! He is greater than circumstances; therefore will I not fear! *Pray about today!*
