Topic: REQUIREMENTS FOR LIVING WITH ETERNITY IN VIEW
Text: Read: Hebrews 12:14
Daily Bible Study: Gen. 41-42; Matt. 11

“Follow peace with all men, and holiness without which no man shall see the Lord” (Heb. 12:14)

For every believer with eternity in view, certain requirements relevant to achieving this goal are expected to be made. God is a holy God and cannot behold evil (Hab. 1:13). As pilgrims on our journey to eternity, we must live our lives in holiness unto the Lord all the days of our lives.  As obedient children, we should live in holiness in order to please God.
For progress in our Christian race, we must feed on God’s word regularly and conscientiously. This will keep us far away from evil and help us know God in a better way, walking before Him in truth and in spirit. The word of God should be our standard and must be applied in all situations of our lives. Daily study and meditation on God’s word will make us prosper, and have good success in all our endeavours.
We need the baptism of the Holy Spirit to teach us what we ought to know. He will bring to our remembrance all that we have been taught. We need Him to counsel, help and lead us into all truth. No believer with eternity in view can go far without the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. Our lives should be a pointer to others that living in eternity with God is the ultimate goal we should aspire to achieve. We must strive daily to live in God’s glory. Through prayer we cast our cares and burden on God and in return, receive the enabling power to carry on our life’s journey.

Prayer: Dear Lord, thank You for Your peace upon our lives. Help us to enjoy Your divine protection as we pass through life’s journey to eternity. We pray in Jesus’ name – Amen.

POLITICS (PLEASE POST YOUR OPINION) Donald Trump will tonight hand out his inaugural ‘fake news awards’ to the media outlets that have most angered him during his first year as President. The Commander in Chief announced the bizarre ceremony in a tweet late Tuesday, writing: ‘I will be announcing THE MOST DISHONEST & CORRUPT MEDIA AWARDS OF THE YEAR on Monday at 5:00 o’clock. ‘Subjects will cover Dishonesty & Bad Reporting in various categories from the Fake News Media. Stay tuned!’ President Trump has been most vociferous in attacking CNN for its supposed ‘fake news’, with the network widely expected to win the majority of gongs. The awards are likely to be ‘handed out’ in a series of scathing tweets from Mr Trump, and it is unclear whether he will present winners with any sort of booby prize. He popularized the term fake news during his White House run, using it to attack reports whose facts he disputes. But Trump’s critics claim it is an easy way of shouting down va...
JANUARY 14, 2019 Left home around 6am and picked up Isaac at Itamaga. Left for Benin through Ijebu Ode. Arrived Benin around 10.30am. Very smooth drive. All marketing activities today went so well. Checked into the hotel with Isaac around 5.30pm. Worked on my report for today and caught up on my blog.
FEBRUARY 01, 2019 Thank God its Friday! Tate joined me in my car as I drove to work. I dropped him off at 7up bus stop, Lagos-Ibadan Expressway. He was heading for his company headquarters at Ajao Estate. I got to work early enough. Not very comfortable because I did not exactly carry out my duties properly yesterday. I eventually defended my activities in the meeting presided by the MD. I left with Dare in our separate cars for Iyare Transport Company to Waybill Oxide pigments heading for Benin to Golden Julirose. Joined the the brethren who visited the Old People's Home at the location. We sang and prayed with the old people and rounded up at 6pm. I left with Tobi to pick up Tate at Itamaga and drop off Tobi at her residence in Itamaga. Drove home with Tate. Hung about at B-Lounge with Tate later in the night. Took 2 bottles of beer and a plate of pepper soup each. Bought a plate of pepper soup as 'take away' for Ify.
