*RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL*
*|| GIVE CARE AND ATTENTION TO OTHERS ||* *|| And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me (Matthew 25:40). ||* Wednesday, 19th August. Pastor Chris God’s desire is for you to be highly successful and happy, so you can reach out to help others who are despondent, for He said: “…I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing” (Genesis 12:2). Instead of seeking attention and expecting someone to make you happy, He wants you to be the one offering care to others. There’re those who get frustrated because they think others don’t care about them. The more they crave attention, the more it seems they’re ignored, and this upsets them. Philippians 2:4 TLB says, “Don’t just think about your own affairs, but be interested in others too….” Even in prayer, don’t be self-centred, conscious of your needs only; be conscious of the needs of others. I remember a dear brother who was brought in for one of our meetings, sick and so weak. While he was still trying to keep his broken body stable on the chair, another sick person in a more terrible state was brought in and laid beside him. His debilitating condition moved this brother to tears, and he later said when he saw this sick man and how dire his state was, he forgot about himself and began praying for him to be healed. The man received his healing and he also was healed! When you get concerned about others, God will take care of your own desires. Maybe you’ve been praying and asking God for a new job for a while now, why don’t you pray for others who are out of jobs too? Rather than being overwhelmed by the issues in your family, begin to pray for other families around you. When you live with this consciousness, miracles will happen in your life without your having to ask. Hallelujah! Always be gracious enough to help others, and loving enough to care about them. You’re God’s outstretched arm of blessings, love and care to your world. Think this of yourself today, because it’s God’s perception of you. *CONFESSION* *God is able to make all grace—every favour and earthly blessing—come to me in abundance, so that I may always and under all circumstances and whatever the need be self-sufficient, possessing enough to require no aid or support, and furnished in abundance for every good work and charitable donation. Glory to God!* *FURTHER STUDY* *|| Matthew 7:12 ||* Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets. *|| Matthew 7:12 GNB ||* “Do for others what you want them to do for you: this is the meaning of the Law of Moses and of the teachings of the prophets. *|| 1 YEAR BIBLE READING PLAN ||* 1 Corinthians 4 Psalm 113-116 *|| 2 YEAR BIBLE READING PLAN ||* Philippians 4:14-23 Jeremiah 4 *|| Thank You For Studying And Sharing With Other People. God Bless You ||* |

I really like your reflection on the word of God ,it brought change in me very moment I read it today .Me and my partner had a really bad understanding between us .I gave him all my love and care and attention in all the sphere of life but he never gave me any attention ,though I always crave attention from him but I was getting frustrated more and more each day when he never gave me attention above all he was ignoring me and neglecting me .
I can only forgive him and even love him more .As today I realise that I am substantial to God's arms and blessings to his life .It is a plan of God to love my Partner .Thank God and Praise the Lord Alleluia !Amen Please Pray for us .Thank you . |

I'm glad the word of God is touching your life. I pray in the name of Jesus you and your partner receive more light of God and give each other attention deserved and love each other more. Amen.
