Topic: BEHIND EVERY GLORY!
Basic Scripture: HEBREWS 12:1 – 11; “Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, 2 fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. 3 Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.
God Disciplines His Children
4 In your struggle against sin, you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood. 5 And have you completely forgotten this word of encouragement that addresses you as a father addresses his son? It says,
“My son, do not make light of the Lord’s discipline, ***Our Daily Manna Devotional (ODM) Sunday 15 January, 2023
and do not lose heart when he rebukes you,
6 because the Lord disciplines the one he loves,
and he chastens everyone he accepts as his son.”[a]
7 Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as his children. For what children are not disciplined by their father? 8 If you are not disciplined—and everyone undergoes discipline—then you are not legitimate, not true sons and daughters at all. 9 Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of spirits and live! 10 They disciplined us for a little while as they thought best; but God disciplines us for our good, in order that we may share in his holiness. 11 No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.”
Our Daily Manna Devotional (ODM) Sunday 15 January, 2023
We celebrate birthdays, promotions, healings, new houses, new Cars, new visas and success in general. These are glorious times. Failure is considered an orphan, while success has many fathers! Everybody wants to identify with success.
However, few people understand that behind every success (glory) there is always a story, untold. 1 remember when my children graduated from their various Masters degrees! One has a double Masters! As a family, there was celebration concerning this outstanding success. **Our Daily Manna Devotional (ODM) Sunday 15 January, 2023.
But behind their success (glory hour) were tears, hard work and pain. However, none of know the story behind the production of this booklet for the past quarter of a century – 25 years! It’s a story of tears and pain baked and wrapped in the anointing of the Holy Ghost!
When I am writing, many times 1 forget food and sleep. But when I hear the outcome, the testimonies and move of God via this booklet globally, 1 feel comforted!
Hear this. Behind the glory of heaven is the agonizing story of the cross and the BLOOD shed on it. The untold story behind the glory of America today, s n very/bondage and colonization by Britain. Whatever you an family are going through today, shall be a great encouraging story for generations yet unborn.
No pain, no gain; so continue this 21 day annual and worldwide fasting programme and prepare to be at the last-day WORLD ANOINTING SERVICE at the manna MOUNTAIN HEADQUARTERS , OGUDU ORIOKE, via Ojota, LAGOS. Time is 12pm Lagos Time. Come with your points of your glory and timing shall manifest, because, behind every glory there is a story. Hold on! Men shall celebrate you!
