*OUR DAILY MANNA DEVOTIONAL*
_A DAILY DEVOTIONAL BOOKLET FOR CHAMPIONS_
*DATE: SATURDAY 25TH APRIL, 2020*
*TOPIC: LORD, REMEMBER ME*
*BASIC SCRIPTURE: 2KINGS 7:3-16*
Some years ago, a professor in a Ghanaian University said: “You could graduate as the best student in Finance but it doesn’t mean you will make more money than everybody else. The best graduating Law student does not necessarily become the best lawyer.
The fact is, life requires more than the ability to understand a concept, memorise it and reproduce it in an exam.
School rewards people for their memories. Life rewards people for their imagination and innovations. School rewards caution; life rewards daring. School hails those who live by the rules.
Life exalts those who break the rules and set new ones.” So only the smart ones make it in life and ministry!
Even if you were the best student in a Bible school, it does not guarantee your GOOD SUCCESS IN MINISTRY or divine FLOW OF DIVINE POWER! Life is not all about academic grades.
The great Late Nigerian lawyer, Gani Fawehinmi, is a big example. His books are being used by FIRST CLASS GRADUATES, even though he made a 3rd class! He was one of the prestigious “inner club members” of the SENIOR ADVOCATES OF NIGERIAN (SAN)!
*In life, what you do with your experience is what counts at last!* You might actually have a first class in school and still work under someone who had a third class. It is possible! Life does not commend you that you were exceptional within the box or within a guided syllabus, etc. life rewards those who have exceptional thinking “out of the box.” Yes! Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all!
Hear from the Journals of Ralph Waldo Emerson: “Don’t be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experiment.
The more experiments you make the better.” I remember Craig D. Lounsbrough: “It is no secret that the greatest treasures are found in the most remote, inaccessible and difficult places where we must pursue them with great energy and even greater risk.
It’s the same with our lives.” Even in a risky race, it is better to cross the line and bear the consequences, than to stare at that line for the rest of your life! Like the 4 lepers in today’s scripture, take risks in your life as 2020 runs by! If you win, you can lead others, but if you lose, you can guide others! NOTHING IS A WASTE! Make a move!
*TODAY IS YOUR DAY! BRING YOUR PICTURE AGAIN!*
*Today, is (Lagos) Ogudu anointing service. Venue: 8-10 Omotayo Banwo Street, Transformer Bus-stop, Ogudu Orioke, Ogudu, Lagos. Time: 7.30am. Theme: “Lord, Remember Me.”*
*PRAYER POINTS:* Take Song 1: When The Roll Is Called Up Yonder…
1. In your own words, pray over today’s word as led now.
2. LORD, help me to face life and win! Help me to face life and conquer!
3. I receive grace to do what others are not doing!
4. I am MORE THAN A LEPER! I determine to take risks as I move on daily!
5. I am not intimidated by anyone! Men and women who are superior to me shall serve me this year in Jesus name.
6. I scatter every power that says my ELEVATION in 2020 cannot happen, in Jesus name.
7. Pray about seriously now! USE PAGES 7-9 PRAYERS!

*SONG 1: WHEN THE ROLL IS CALLED UP YONDER*
1. When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound, and time shall be no more,
And the morning breaks, eternal, bright and fair
When the saved of earth shall gather over on the other shore,
And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there.
*REFRAIN:*
_When the roll, is called up yon-der,_
_When the roll, is called up yon-der,_
_When the roll, is called up yon-der,_
_When the roll is called up yonder I'll be there_
2. On that bright and cloudless morning when the dead in Christ shall rise,
And the glory of His resurrection share
When His chosen ones shall gather to their home beyond the skies,
And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there.
3. Let us labor for the Master from the dawn till setting sun,
Let us talk of all His wondrous love and care
Then when all of life is over, and our work on earth is done,
And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there.
