 SEED OF TRANSFORMATION DAILY DEVOTIONAL                                          *SERVING GOD ACCEPTABLY* *By Pastor E O Gabriel  29 August 2026: Share* SCRIPTURE: Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: *Hebrews 12:28.* •Our anchor Scripture admonishes us to serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear. As children of God, it is very important to know that we were created by God to serve Him.  *However, God does not expect us to serve Him anyhow; He expects us to serve Him acceptably.* •In serving God acceptably, the following counsels are important: 1. Refuse to be a decorative, non-contributing member of the church.  Ephesians 4:16 says,  •From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to ...

 SEED OF TRANSFORMATION DAILY DEVOTIONAL                                          *NOT TAKEN BY SURPRISE* *By Pastor E O Gabriel  28 August 2026: Share* SCRIPTURE: Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. *Jeremiah 1:5* •The Scripture makes it clear that our God is a God of plans and purposes. Our God does not act randomly. He is a God who acts deliberately.  In Jeremiah 29:11, God says, •For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. •One thing I want you to know about God, in relation to your purpose on earth is: God is not confused about man’s purpose and journey on the earth.  •God is not confused about what to do with your life. •In Jeremiah 1:5, He says, Before...

 SEED OF TRANSFORMATION DAILY DEVOTIONAL                                          *KEY THOUGHTS ON LOVE* *By Pastor E O Gabriel  27 August 2026: Share* SCRIPTURE: Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. *1 Corinthians 13:1* •It has been established that the lifestyle of love is critical to our existence on the earth and our destiny in eternity. Walking in love is beneficial for our existence on the earth as well as our eternity in heaven.  •In our study today, I will give you two key thoughts on love. 1. Speaking in Tongues Equals Noise without Love *Prayer equals noise without love.* 1 Corinthians 13:1 says, •Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. •This means, if a person speaks with the tong...

 SEED OF TRANSFORMATION DAILY DEVOTIONAL                                         *DISCOVERY: A KEY THAT UNLOCKS DESTINY* *By Pastor E O Gabriel  26 August 2026: Share* SCRIPTURE: The man cried against the altar by the word of the Lord, O altar, altar, thus says the Lord: Behold, a son shall be born to the house of David, Josiah by name; and on you shall he offer the priests of the high places who burn incense on you, and men's bones shall be burned on you. *1 Kings 13:2 (AMP).* •Keys are essential assets of life. Keys are indispensable to life because they facilitate access and exits.  •However, being in possession of keys alone is not enough. It is one thing to be in possession of keys but it is another thing to be in possession of the right keys. This is why when you try to open a door with a wrong key, it would not open.  •Now, there are keys that open one’s destiny...

OVERCOMING THE TEMPTATION NOT TO GO FAR WITH GOD

 SEED OF TRANSFORMATION DAILY DEVOTIONAL                                          *OVERCOMING THE TEMPTATION NOT TO GO FAR WITH GOD* *By Pastor E O Gabriel  25 August 2026: Share* SCRIPTURE: And Pharaoh said, I will let you go, that ye may sacrifice to the Lord your God in the wilderness; only ye shall not go very far away: intreat for me. *Exodus 8:28.* •Earlier in our studies, we saw two key proofs of dedication to God as worship and service (Matthew 4:10). •It is confirmed that profitable service equals productive living. When we serve God profitably, we live productively. And because the devil knows that there is profit in serving God, he does everything to fight your dedication to God and the dividends of that dedication. The devil wants a dedicated person to be lukewarm, lethargic and complacent because he knows that fervent service in God produces fire-full results....

 SEED OF TRANSF ORMATION DAILY DEVOTIONAL *PUTTING SATAN TO WORK THROUGH BITTERNESS* *By Pastor E O Gabriel  24 August 2026: Share*   SCRIPTURE: For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work. *James 3:16* •Bitterness, according to our anchor Scripture invites evil work. Bitterness invites every form of evil work. Bitterness, unforgiveness, hatred invites the work of satan in the life of a person.  •James 3:16 says, For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work. *To put it in another way: bitterness puts satan to work; bitterness engages satanic activity.* And the worst thing that can happen to anybody on earth is to walk with, or work for satan. Anywhere there is envy, and strife, satan is at work. Now, let me ask you a question: is it possible for a person to walk with satan on earth and then stop walking with satan in eternity? No! The walk continues in eternity because the earth is only a temporary venue for sata...

 SEED OF TRANSFORMATION DAILY DEVOTIONAL                                         *WHEN HE IS WITH US IN OUR DIFFICULTIES* *By Pastor E O Gabriel  23 August 2026: Share* SCRIPTURE: When thou Passest through the Waters, I will be with thee; and through the Rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou Walkest through the Fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee - *Isaiah 43:2* Often times when we face the difficulties of Life, our heart's cry is that the Lord will lead us out of them.  If this doesn't happen immediately, we get discouraged and depressed.  The Bible says, Hope deferred makes the heart sick - *Proverbs 13:12* *The more appropriate cry should be for the Presence of the Lord in our difficulties.* This is because He has Promised to be with us when we walk through the Fire. *Let us consider what happens when He is with us in o...
