BEAT YOUR BODY
🔶🔸 METAMORPHOSIS (#1 Daily Devotional Tract by Dr Isaiah Wealth )
🗓 Sunday, 22nd October 2017.
📜 SCRIPTURAL TEXT
(1 Corinthians 9:27)
“But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.”
🔹 🔹 🔹
So long as the understanding of God’s Word, His plans and purposes are all engrained in our spirits and in our minds, your flesh will never understand the will of God. More so, the Bible says that the flesh and the spirit always go in opposite directions (Gal. 5:17). This puts believers in a peculiar situation.
Often times, there is a willingness in your heart to do God’s will, but the flesh is uncooperative. Apostle Paul in our scriptural text today states clearly what we must do when our flesh gets in the way of compliance to God’s Word – bring it into subjection!
If you know you ought to pray, do not listen to the dictates of the flesh. Instead, coerce it. Making an excuse of tiredness or sleepiness when you ought to study the Word or head to Church would only rob you of spiritual benefits and blessings. Hence, beat your body when you need to, and do God’s will nonetheless.

Let's Pray For Liberia🇱🇷...
The physical needs in Liberia are many – poverty, illiteracy and under-education, HIV/AIDS etc. Islam’s expansion is also alarming as Liberia remains a major target for African Islam.
🙏🏽We are praying for more teaching ministries to come into the nation to teach the word and take the people from a point of poverty, illiteracy etc into the plan of God for them.
🔹 START-UP PRAYER:
Dear Father, strengthen me to yield only to the spirit and not to my flesh in Jesus name.
🔹 PRAYER OF REDEDICATION
Dear Father, I thank you for this new day and for the privilege to see the tenth month of this year. I ascribe all glory, honour and praise to your holy name and acknowledge that you are the Source of all that I have and all that I am. I consecrate my whole body, soul and spirit to you today; work in me that which is well pleasing in your sight and make me a vessel fit for your use today in Jesus Name. Amen.
