31/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Value of my existence 3

 Text:
```Genesis 34:1‭-‬2 NKJV
Now Dinah the daughter of Leah, whom she had borne to Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land. And when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, prince of the country, saw her, he took her and lay with her, and violated her.```
 
COMMENTARY
In my university days, I met a system that my spirit didn't align with. Campus fellowship does annual ceremony of dinner and award night. However in my view and thoughts, I saw, outreach programs and soul winning as a great commission and more honorable and valuable program to commit money into. The reasons given by few persons I approached was genuine: "since our brethren do not participate in the departmental and faculty dinner, we organizes a more decent dinner at the fellowship level in order to safeguard our members from indecent pool party that takes place in the department and faculty dinner level." Wow! This is quiet thoughtful of those two invented such for the fellowship.

A body of Christ which is adrift needed to recover before seeking the lost. The fellowships on campus now took a defensive positions to recover and retain her members instead of losing them to the world. The Lord said in the book of _Deuteronomy 18:9 NKJV “When you come into the land which the Lord your God is giving you, you shall not learn to follow the abominations of those nations._

Dinah the daughter of Jacob associated with the people of the Land. And at one of their outings which could be likened to this days night club, she learnt what rape meant in a bitter way. You are attracted to what the world do because you never knew the value of the kingdom service and remaining under God's instructions. You need to know who you are and embrace your identity fully before the world will disfigure you. After you are disfigured, you might become a talk of the town but as a laughing stock. The news of Dinah's sexual escapade filled everywhere. She was mocked and her family were displeased at her. 

 Food for thought:
Do not make newspaper headline in a negative achievements._ 

 Prayer:
```Teach me Lord my value, who I am and what I represent in Jesus name.```

 31/12/2023 *Christian WATCH Exposition* *Topic:* _Habit 1. Roaming around_  *Text:*  ```Job 2:1-2 AMP Job Loses His Health Again there was a day when the sons of God (angels) came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan (adversary, accuser) also came among them to present himself before the Lord. The Lord said to Satan, “From where have you come?” Then Satan answered the Lord, “From roaming around on the earth and from walking around on it.”```  *COMMENTARY*  As children we grew up seeing Almanac painting of a dark human like image with tail, hons and horrible dentition being displayed on walls of our houses as Satan. Some of these almanac displayed Jesus and Satan having a soccer. Other Almanac can be a wrestling match between Satan and Jesus and things like that. Satan cannot be known by all those images. Satan is a spirit and manifest through human beings. Therefore in this study we shall look into the habits and manifestations of Satan. One of the ...

Topic: Habit 5. Distractions.   Text :  ```Job 2:1-2 AMP Job Loses His Health Again there was a day when the sons of God (angels) came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan (adversary, accuser) also came among them to present himself before the Lord. The Lord said to Satan, “From where have you come?” Then Satan answered the Lord, “From roaming around on the earth and from walking around on it.”```   COMMENTARY   Uninvited yet attending, for what? Why is Satan always going to the gathering of the children of God? Presenting himself to the Lord is not his priority, he is chiefly looking for whom to distract. As children of God testifies of triumphing over evil with good, the children of the disobedience take pleasure in doing evil and testifies when they succeed in multiplying evil, especially when their intended distractions work out and a child of God compromise to follow evil. Have you wondered why believers compromise? It starts from this ki...

02/02/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Illegal Structures.   Text :  ```Jeremiah 1:7‭-‬10 NKJV But the Lord said to me: “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ For you shall go to all to whom I send you, And whatever I command you, you shall speak. Do not be afraid of their faces, For I am with you to deliver you,” says the Lord. Then the Lord put forth His hand and touched my mouth, and the Lord said to me: “Behold, I have put My words in your mouth. See, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, To root out and to pull down, To destroy and to throw down, To build and to plant.”```   COMMENTARY One of the foundational significant difference between Prophetic ministers and the rest of the people in the society is eyes. God gives ability to identify original architectural master plans to the Prophets. God give them ability to read and interpret geographical and geological map of families and individual persons lives. God's purpose and plans a...
