_A DEVOTIONAL BOOKLET FOR CHAMPIONS_
*DATE: SATURDAY 30TH MARCH, 2019*
*TOPIC: LESSONS FROM THE STUBBORN SPIDER: NEVER GIVE UP!*
*BASIC SCRIPTURE: JEREMIAH 32:16-22*
Robert Bruce was crowned King of Scotland on March 27th 1306. He was however deposed in 1307 by King Edward I of England. Bruce was forced to flee to the highlands and then to the little Island of Rathlin on the coast of Antrim (now Northern Ireland). While there, he continued to recruit followers and in less than two years, he liberated Scotland from the British. He again defeated the British army in the popular battle of Bannockburn, which eventually led to the Independence of Scotland in 1328.
But read below the story/secret of Robert Bruce that enabled him to paralyze the British army: *While he was in exile, he watched a spider trying to make a web. The spider had tremendous difficulty in trying to spin its web, but it never gave up. It just kept trying. This discovery challenged Robert Bruce and declare the popular quote: “If at first you don’t succeed, try, try and try again.”*
*It was the determination of the spider that challenged Bruce to rout the powerful British army* and in this year 2019, the Holy Ghost wants you to gather fresh determination through today’s devotional to stand in the trials/battles of life. In this STORY TO GLORY YEAR, no matter what is happening around you, don’t stop believing God! Don’t lose hope and don’t let your love for Him come to an end. It was Helen Keller who quipped: *Delay is not a denial and defeat is simply a signal to press onward.”* What the mind of man can conceive and believe, the mind of man can achieve! Just keep trying! Keep holding on! This wolrld will celebrate you soon in Jesus name!

*Songs 1: Higher Ground*
1. I’m pressing on the upward way,
New heights I’m gaining everyday;
Still praying as I onward bound,
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”
*Chorus*
Lord, lift me up, and let me stand
By faith on Canaan’s tableland;
A higher plane than I have found,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
2. My heart has no desire to stay
Where doubts arise and fears dismay;
Though some may dwell where these abound,
My prayer, my aim, is higher ground.
3. I want to live above the world,
Though Satan’s darts at me are hurled;
For faith has caught the joyful sound,
The song of saints on higher ground.
4. I want to scale the utmost height
And catch a gleam of glory bright;
But still I’ll pray till rest I’ve found,
“Lord, lead me on to higher ground.”
