THE CORNET DAILY DEVOTIONAL

FLOURISHING

Tuesday 14th November, 2023
Pastor David Omongole

“The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon. Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God. They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing;” (Psalms 92:12-14 KJV)

The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree, what does this mean? A palm tree spreads its leaves, that’s how the righteous flourish. As a righteous man, you spread like the palm tree. Your prosperity spreads. Your influence spreads. Your ministry spreads. Hallelujah!

The Scripture also tells us that, “The righteous shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.” Cedars grow so tall and they have strong durable wood. Furthermore, they live for many centuries. The Cedars in Lebanon can live up to 1000 years. As a righteous man, you are strong. No matter the kind of wind which blows against you, you’ll still be standing like a cedar in Lebanon. Your prosperity will stay for many generations. Glory to God!

Our theme Scripture says, “Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God.” Be committed to the church of Jesus Christ and remain planted in the specific church where God has placed you. God has released grace for you to be nourished and sustained in church. Attend church services diligently and participate in the work of the ministry. You shall flourish and bear fruit even in old age.

While others are retiring, you will be getting stronger and stronger. At 120 years of age, you will still be jumping up and down. You will still be winning souls. You will still be a generous partner in the house of God. You will still be singing in the choir. You will still be writing songs. You will still be a diligent usher. Glory to God!

CONFESSION
I am the righteousness of God in Christ, therefore I flourish like the palm tree. I spread in ministry, business, and career. I am as strong as the Cedars of Lebanon. My prosperity abides for generations to come. Hallelujah! I bear fruit in all areas of my life because I am committed to my church. As I listen to the Word of God and put it to work, I take hold of more grace to reign in life. Glory to God!

Isaiah 60:21-22 ISV
Then your people will all be righteous; They'll possess the land forever. They are the shoot that the LORD planted, the works of his hands, so that I might be glorified. (22) The least of them will become a thousand, and the smallest one a mighty nation. "I am the LORD; When the time is right, I will do this swiftly."

Proverbs 4:18-19 MSG
The ways of right-living people glow with light; the longer they live, the brighter they shine. (19) But the road of wrongdoing gets darker and darker-- travelers can't see a thing; they fall flat on their faces.

KEEP THE RIGHT COMPANY

Sunday 12th November, 2023
Pastor David Omongole

“And the children of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand on foot that were men, beside children. And a mixed multitude went up also with them; and flocks, and herds, even very much cattle.” (Exodus 12:37-38 KJV)

The exodus of the children of Israel from Egypt is a picture of the church coming out of the world. Our theme Scripture shows us that when the children of Israel left Egypt, they moved along with a mixed multitude (that is people who were not Israelites).

Numbers 11:4 tells us that “…the mixed multitude who were among them craved more desirable foods, and so the Israelites wept again, and said, ‘If only we had meat to eat!’” (NET) The mixed multitude wrongly influenced the children of Israel. They lusted after the foods that they had been eating in Egypt and so the Israelites started to complain as well.

This also happens in the church of Jesus Christ. Some believers keep company with mixed multitude, thinking that they will convert them. But instead, the mixed multitude influence the character of the believers. The Bible warns us saying, “Do not be so deceived and misled! Evil companionships (communion, associations) corrupt and deprave good manners and morals and character.” (1 Corinthians 15:33 AMP).

If you’re born again, it’s expedient for you to keep company with fellow believers who are walking in faith. Furthermore, you need to stay in fellowship with the Word of God and His Spirit. Then you will not be distracted by the mixed multitude.

CONFESSION
I neither walk in the counsel of the ungodly nor stand in the way of sinners. My delight is in the Word of God. I meditate on the Word day and night. The Word of God lights up my path and gives me direction. As I fellowship with the Holy Spirit, He instructs me in righteousness. He connects me to the right people at the right time and in the right places. Blessed be God! I bear good fruit in every season. Whatsoever I do prospers to the glory of God. Hallelujah!

Psalms 1:1-3 KJV
Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. (2) But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. (3) And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

Proverbs 4:14-16 KJV
Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not in the way of evil men. (15) Avoid it, pass not by it, turn from it, and pass away. (16) For they sleep not, except they have done mischief; and their sleep is taken away, unless they cause some to fall.

THANKSGIVING IS AN EXPRESSION OF FAITH

Wednesday 8th November, 2023
Pastor David Omongole

“And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back… fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks… And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine? There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger. And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.” (Luke 17:15-19 KJV)

Jesus perceived that the Samaritan had faith in his heart because he gave thanks. This shows that you can give thanks to God as an act of faith. You may not see something physically yet, but if the Word of God says it, believe the Word and give God thanks. When you study the book of Psalms, one of the things you will notice is that David always gave thanks even amidst dire circumstances.

Take Psalm 23 as an example, David wrote it when he was in a lot of trouble. He was hemmed in by his enemies, they were attacking him on every side. But he didn’t complain and cry to God saying,
“Why have you forgotten me?” He said, “The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.” (Psalms 23:1 KJV) He wasn’t seeing the food and water but he said, “He maketh me to lie down in green pastures…” (Psalms 23:2 KJV) In other words, “I have provision of what to eat, just like sheep would eat in green pastures.”

He said, “…he leadeth me beside the still waters.” (Psalms 23:2 KJV) this phrase means there is peace all around, and yet at the time David wrote this psalm, there was no physical peace around him. What was David doing? He was giving God thanks in faith. This is something you’ve got to learn child of God. Even if there’s some trouble at home, give God thanks.

Maybe there is a need for provision, give God thanks. Do not complain, complaining is not of faith. When you complain, you block the spiritual supply. If it’s time for the children to go back to school, pray with thanksgiving. Say, “Father, I thank you for the provision that you always give us.” As you pray like this, the Lord will reveal to you the things you need to do to bring forth the finances you need. Doors of opportunity will be opened for you. Hallelujah!

CONFESSION
The Lord is my Shepherd. I have everything I need for life and godliness. The Lord makes a resting place for me in green fields. He is my guide by the quiet waters. As I pray to God with thanksgiving, the peace of God mounts guard over my heart and mind in Christ Jesus. Glory to God forever more!

FURTHER STUDY
Philippians 4:6 AMP
Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition (definite requests), with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God.

Psalms 27:1-3 KJV
A Psalm of David. The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? (2) When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell. (3) Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.

Psalms 31:7-8 AMP
I will be glad and rejoice in Your mercy and steadfast love, because You have seen my affliction, You have taken note of my life's distresses, (8) And You have not given me into the hand of the enemy; You have set my feet in a broad place.
