RESTORATION TODAY
WEDNESDAY, MAY 13, 2020.
TOPIC: *THE POWER OF SAYING 'NO'*
"Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you." James 4:7.
*MESSAGE*
'No' is a powerful word. Resisting the devil is saying 'no' to the devil. Some of us would have been more successful if we had been more courageous and said 'no' to the devil in times past. Today, technology is destroying the lives of many young people simply by weakening their ability to say 'no'.
Life will always ask us questions; we must not shy away from saying *"NO"* when we should.
*- Should You Go To A Native Doctor? No!*
*- Should You Marry A Man Just Because He Has Money? No!*
*- Should You Rush Into Marriage Because All Your Mates Are Married? No!*
*- Should You Steal Because You Are Jobless? No!*
Don't be part of those who postpone their greatness by saying yes when they should say no. Inability to say 'no' when it is necessary has caused tragedy and trouble for many. On the other hand, 'No' has saved many people from drunkenness, immorality, peer group negative influence, etc. Learn to resist the devil; says 'no' when you should. May God help you.
*ACTION POINT*
?️ What is the Spirit of God urging you to say 'no' today?
*SCRIPTURES*
James 4:7; Genesis 39:9; Titus 2:11-12.
*PRAYER POINTS*
1. My Lord and my Father, forgive me for all 'YES' I have said that wasn't in line with Your Will;
2. Give me the grace, ability, and enablement to always say 'NO' when necessary in Jesus Mighty Name;
3. Give me the grace to overcome satan's temptation of saying 'YES' when I am supposed to say *'NO'*.
*THE BIBLE OF THE YEAR*
Num. 23:27-24.25, Prov. 21:12-22.16, Luke 1:1-25.
