By Dr D.K Olukoya General Overseer MFM worldwide

Bible In One Year: 1 Samuel 1-3

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Psalms 34:18; Psalms 51:17; Isaiah 57:15

MEMORY VERSE:
John 3:30-“`He must increase, but I must decrease.“`

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:
To walk in the pressure of self discipline to please God brings to you the divine pleasure of God’s approval of your walk with Him, and a successful journey to heaven.

PRAISE WORSHIP: Take a worship song as led by the Holy Spirit

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:
YOUR LIFE SHALL BE A GLORIOUS EXAMPLE OF GOD’S MOULDED VESSEL UNTO HONOUR, IN THE NAME OF JESUS.

The MESSAGE:
Brokenness is the total submission to the will of God and an absolute, determined zeal to carry out His will in your personal conduct as a Christian. It is allowing the Holy Spirit to reign in every department of your life without frustrating His still small voice directing your conduct and responses to the reality of your daily life.

When you are broken, you are always welcomed in God’s presence and are able to live the life of holy revival. What are some of the signs of brokenness? Here are some of them in the light of God’s word.

The broken Christian will have a crucified flesh (Galatians 2:20). He or she will accept correction with meekness (Acts 23:1-5). He or she will admit fault without fuss, listen to other people’s opinion and will not be bitter when not having his or her way. He or she does not pull down others to lift themselves up. He or she consciously decreases and allows Jesus to increase in him or her.

Similarly, the broken Christian does not show off to appear to be better than others. He or she is always concerned about God’s approval than men’s approval of you and does not blow personal trumpet but let others blow it for him or her.

Also, a broken Christian does good to people without expecting a return of the favour from them. He or she does not gossip nor have a double personality. He or she readily forgives others and quickly apologises when he or she offends others.

In addition, a broken Christian does not have a critical spirit for others and does not harbour impure thoughts in his or her mind. He or she maintains a strong and healthy prayer altar and increases the knowledge of God by constant research of His word. Finally, a broken Christian walks by faith and not by sight.

Beloved, when you are broken, God personally reserves a seat for you in His presence.
