Word of Hope for Today by Bro. Rolly Custodio


Crucial Decision Requires Advise from the Wiseman
‘Listen to advice…and…you will be wise…’ Proverbs 19:20 NIV

 

Today’s Insight

You may be good at what you do. Indeed, you may be better than most, but without the help of others you will never be as good as you could be. You will never reach your highest potential without a good adviser. It’s impossible. Why would a world-class tennis player need a coach, especially one who is not as good on the court as he or she is? AndrĂ© Agassi answered the question this way: ‘Tennis requires subtle adjustments crucial to winning and my coach, Gill, is the best at making them. The older I get, the more valuable he becomes.’ Why is that? Because age and experience don’t necessarily make you better; often they just deepen the rut you’re in.

In life, as in sports, you never reach the point where you don’t need good input. Yet many of us operate under the misguided assumption that because we lead, we don’t need to be led. We make the mistake of measuring ourselves against others instead of our own God-given potential and in the end we never become what we could have been.

Self-evaluation is important, but the evaluation of others is crucial. A good coach measures your performance against your strengths, not somebody else’s. That’s because he or she knows what you’re capable of and they will push you to your limit. And by the way, good coaches are constantly on the scene observing, not back at the office waiting for a report. That’s because they are personally invested in your success; a win for you is a win for them.

Ruth needed Naomi and Timothy needed Paul. Who advises you? I suggest going to your Pastors or Church Elders or Deacons because they are the one knowledgeable of the Word of God.


Today’s Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank you for your Word today. Lord thank you for giving me an opportunity to receive your blessing today but you oh Lord knows my strength and my weaknesses and Lord give me wisdom to inquire from my Pastors or Elders and Deacons that I would not make mistakes of any decision which is crucial to my life’s quest. Lord helps me to weight every advises which would be related to my present situation and make a crucial decision which will bring me in my future. Lord helps me to make a final decision based on the counsels of my Pastors or Elders and most especially the counsel from your Word. I want to have a decision that will not contradict against your Word so that I am free from every conscience or sins against your commandments for your glory In Jesus’ Name. Amen!

Prayer for Salvation

Lord I admit I am a sinner I repent of all my sins and I receive you into my heart as my personal Lord and Savior Amen. If you mean that prayer above from the bottom of your heart you are now saved. It is God’s Word promise in John 3:16 that if you trust His Son Jesus you will not die but you will have Eternal Life. Welcome to the family of God. In order to grow in your faith with God please do these consistently starting today; 1. Pray always 2. Read your Bible Daily 3. Attend Church Services Regularly 4. Attend Prayer Meeting, Bible Study, Church Seminars and make God first place in your life with your talents and finances 5. Lastly, witness Jesus to others that they may receive Eternal Life also.
