*Ministry Musings*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind; Neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being ensamples to the flock. And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away."* (1 Peter 5:2-4 (KJV)
_Bible Insight:_
When ministers run after money as the main thing in ministry, it's because they forget that money is just an amplifier.
If what you're building isn't biblical and solid, money won't make it so. Money doesn't build ministry; it only amplifies what's being built in the ministry.
Sound doctrine, prayer, discipleship, fellowship, witnessing, are things that build lasting works. We must always set our minds on these!
It's always disastrous when money amplifies what's weak in substance. If the ministry isn't impactful without money, the minister shouldn't be thinking of money.
Read that again.
_MEDITATION:_
*Ministry is the Father's business
We have been called to mind this
It must be done with every sense of urgency, And with much dedication & consistency. Teaching! Praying!
Witnessing! Our sufficiency is of God!*

*Increase your passion for Jesus*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"He turned toward the woman and said to Simon, "Have you noticed this woman? When I came into your home, you didn't give me any water so I could wash my feet. But she has washed my feet with her tears and dried them with her hair. You didn't even pour olive oil on my head, but she has poured expensive perfume on my feet. So I tell you that all her sins are forgiven, and that is why she has shown great love. But anyone who has been forgiven for only a little will show only a little love."* (Luke 7:44-46 (CEV))
_Bible Insight:_
Don’t worry about what the lukewarm think of your passionate worship for Jesus. Judas represents the lukewarm person who’s been following Jesus for a little while but allowed their heart to grow cold and bitter. Mary represents the passionate lover of Jesus who will pour out everything on Him.
When Mary poured out her oil of worship over Jesus, Judas was convicted and lashed out. He had to come face to face with the condition of his heart. Mary didn’t say a word to him. All she did was pour out her worship on Jesus, and that alone convicted Judas.
When Judas rebuked Mary, she ignored him and continued to worship Jesus. We must not allow the opinion of the lukewarm to affect the way we worship Jesus. It’s all about Him, not them! Only His opinion will matter on Judgement Day and only His opinion matters now!
_MEDITATION:_
*Don't let the level of your passion for Jesus be dictated by the dispassionate responses or opinion of men!* --E.D.J

*Compliance:not its appearance*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"But to the wicked I say: "You don't have the right to mention my laws or claim to keep our agreement! You refused correction and rejected my commands. You made friends with every crook you met, and you liked people who break their wedding vows. You talked only about violence and told nothing but lies; you sat around gossiping, ruining the reputation of your own relatives." When you did all of this, I didn't say a word, and you thought, "God is just like us!" But now I will accuse you."* (Psalms 50:16-21(CEV))
_Bible Insight:_
Christian devotion must progress from questions like...
"Have I read my Bible today?" to questions like...
"Do I have a Biblical worldview concerning the current issue"?
"Does my current opinion, action and approach affirm the authority of the Bible"?
"Are my choices, preferences, and reactions sourced from the scriptures "?
Bible reading that doesn't translate to Bible living will only make us hardened against God and immune to the grieving of the Spirit.
And we must do the same about prayers.
Our conscience should not be satisfied with
"At least I've prayed today"
Our words and speech must affirm that our conversation with a Holy God is potent enough to enforce clean speech.
Our lives must be lived constantly in the presence of the God we pray to.
Our attitude, behavior, and mannerisms must affirm that we often speak to God and such fellowship consistently produces Godliness.
"Devotional praying" that doesn't translate to Devotion to the King and His Kingdom will only make us religious contradictions.
_MEDITATION:_
*Christian Devotion must evolve from ticking the religious roaster and register to permanently living as men devoted to Christ.*

*The wise man's foolishness* (II)
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Solomon loved many foreign women. Besides the daughter of the king of Egypt he married Hittite women and women from Moab, Ammon, Edom, and Sidon. He married them even though the LORD had commanded the Israelites not to intermarry with these people, because they would cause the Israelites to give their loyalty to other gods.."* (1 Kings 11:1-2(GNB))
_Bible Insight:_
Solomon married seven hundred princesses and also had three hundred concubines. They made him turn away from God, and by the time he was old they had led him into the worship of foreign gods. He was not faithful to the LORD his God, as his father David had been. (1 Kings 11:3-4)
Solomon's wisdom finally ended in foolishness. Sadly. Unfortunately, most time wise people or supposedly wise people end up veering off from the path of wisdom. Romans 1:22 captures it well: *"Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools"*
Solomon is like many people today too. Most people begin well. But few stay true to the end. Despite Solomon's acclaimed wisdom, he still missed it unfortunately.
Nothing cancels wisdom like self sufficiency that advises trust in one's ideas over and above God's clear cut instructions.
Indeed, it is a case of surrendering our ideas and opinions to God and standing firmly by God's instructions.
Any wisdom that disobeys God's word is foolishness in disguise perhaps.
This lesson is not really about Solomon. It is actually about you. Everyday you are faced with options to either stand with Gods word obediently or reason it off, rationalize the issue and choose to do something contrary to God's word either because it was either more convenient or most profitable on the short run.
You had better obey God. It is foolishness to think you are wise enough to attempt to disobey God and go scot free.
_MEDITATION:_
*Remember, God knows too much for us to think that we can disobey him and end up proving God wrong! Every promise or warning of God always come true.*

*The wise man's foolishness*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"The king is not to have a large number of horses for his army, and he is not to send people to Egypt to buy horses, because the LORD has said that his people are never to return there. The king is not to have many wives, because this would make him turn away from the LORD; and he is not to make himself rich with silver and gold."* (Deuteronomy 17:16-17(GNB))
_Bible Insight:_
When Moses was getting set to depart and hand over to Joshua, he provided copious and detailed instructions to guide the people of God.
The book of Deuteronomy contains a good summary of those instructions Moses gave them.
Part of what he gave them instructions and commands included the King they can have over them. In Chapter 17 of Deuteronomy some very clear demands were laid down:-
1. He must be from Israel
2. He must not accumulate horses especially horses from Egypt-- he must never go back there or make Israelites to go there.
3. He must not multiply wives unto himself-- he would risk losing his allegiance and worship of the living God If he falls into marrying many wives.
4. He was to keep a copy of the word of God, read it all his life,and ensures he fears, honor and obey God all his life.
This fourth instructions came with a promise. *"When he becomes king, he is to have a copy of the book of God's laws and teachings made from the original copy kept by the levitical priests. He is to keep this book near him and read from it all his life, so that he will learn to honor the LORD and to obey faithfully everything that is commanded in it. This will keep him from thinking that he is better than other Israelites and from disobeying the LORD's commands in any way. Then he will reign for many years, and his descendants will rule Israel for many generations."* Deuteronomy 17:18-20
_MEDITATION:_
*What has God required of you as a Christian? Have you found out? Do you know those things God will have you do? Or you don't even know that there are laid down instructions God expects every of His followers to live by?*
