BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 7th DECEMBER 2025 YOUR SHIELD, GLORY AND LIFTER Psalms 3:3 But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head. (KJV) God is your shield, glory and lifter up of your head. Shield is a protective armour against the attacks of the enemies. And God Himself is your shield. He is round about you as a shield, He nullifies all the attacks against you. You never need worry about all that your enemies are planning against you, only take advantage of your shield; God Almighty. He is your glory. That is, the beauty of your life. And He is your beautifier. He is the essence of your life. He gives value to your life. Someone may have everything materially but without God he has no glory. God gives you all good things including material possession. But your ultimate value and glory is His life in you. He is the lifter up of your head. That is, He is the One who honours you. Men may try to dishonour you, but God honour...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 6th DECEMBER 2025 LIVE IN CHRIST Acts 17:28 ’For in him we live and move and have our being.’ As some of your own poets have said, ’We are his offspring.’ (NIV) There are three realms man live in at the same time; mental, physical and spiritual realm. The spiritual realm is the highest, followed by the mental realm and then the physical. The physical is the least realm though it is the most familiar. The spiritual is the most real realm, that is, the actual realm and state of man. Who you truly are is who you are in the spirit. Where you are in the spirit is your real place. The Bible says "In Christ we live and move and have our being." Christ is your place. Live here. Christ is an actual place in the spirit realm where activities go on, and you have a place here. But like every other place you can choose whether or not to live here. If you were given a house at the government estate you can choose whether or not you wan...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 5th DECEMBER 2025 BLESS THE LORD! Psalms 103:1-2 Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: (KJV) In the heat of challenges one could easily forget God's favour he enjoyed in the past; the victory God gave him, the testimonies he had and shared. If everyone including unbelievers would genuinely look for reasons to praise God they would find too many. Blessing and praising God is a way of life for the Christian, and should be his practise. Everyone has reasons to praise God but you can praise God beyond the reasons. Praise is due God. He alone is worthy to be praised. Beyond the good things He's done for you praise Him for who He is.  Our theme scripture says "Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name." This is an expression of worship. It is hallowing the Name of the Lord; proclaiming His Hol...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 4th DECEMBER 2025 IT SHALL NOT COME NEAR YOU Psalms 91:7 A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you. (NIV) The Lord has given His word concerning your safety and it is worth relying upon. In the midst of the turbulence in the world God's word remain true. It's easy for you to have questions about the things that aren't working in your life but God's word remain true. A thousand may fall at your side and ten thousand at your right hand but it shall not come near you. That's what God says. If it falls at your side it means it's close to you. You would see the effect around you but it cannot affect your life. No matter how close it is, it cannot affect you negatively. That's what that structure means. You may say "I am fighting for my breath, it is getting too much for me, I am losing it."  Just hold on to the word and God will fix you up becau...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 3rd DECEMBER 2025 MORE THAN THE WATER OF NOAH John 7:38-39 Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them." By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified. (NIV) Jesus made a remarkable statement in this above scripture, that rivers of living water will flow from within them that believe in Him. That brings to mind the water of Noah that condemned the world of his time. Genesis chapter 7 has the record how that water came from heaven, its flood became so great and destroyed man, animals and other living things.  Man could not have an answer to the water of Noah, devil couldn't put a stop to it. It swept the whole world away. But something more than that water resides in you. Jesus stated emphatically that those who believe in Him rivers of living water w...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 2nd DECEMBER 2025 LOOK FOR SEED INSTEAD 2 Corinthians 9:10 Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;) (KJV) A lot of times people look for where to take and not where to give, where to harvest and not where to sow, for bread to eat and not seed to sow. You cannot find harvest where you have not sown, or bread where you did not put seed. Instead of looking for harvest and bread look for seed.  God often give seed not bread. Even when He gives you bread there is seed inside. If you eat the whole bread without finding the seed to sow you would be without bread the following season. When God give you bread for this season He expects you to sow seed from it to sustain the next season. Don't spend all that you get, invest some. Don't eat all that you get, give some. He is the One who ministers seed to the sower, and the ...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 1st DECEMBER 2025 GLORIOUS THINGS ARE SPOKEN OF YOU Psalms 87:3 Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. Selah. (KJV) The city of God referred here is Zion and by extension the Church of God, of which every Christian is a member. So the scripture literally refers to God's children. You can simply say "Glorious things are spoken of you oh children of God!" Amazing things God has spoken of us in the Word. The Word speaks of you. Only the word of God speak glorious things about you, the world doesn't. People won't speak glorious things about you, even when they do most of the time it is in pretense. Don't let what the world says about you define you.  There are those who are always concerned about what others say about them. They allow the perception of others define their lives. When people say negative things about them they feel bad about themselves. But that shouldn't be.  God did not create...
