METAMORPHOSIS DEVOTIONAL. (Excerpts from Devotionalbox-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). 7th December,2014. TITLE:THE DOUBLE HONOUR GRATITUDE TEXT: 1Timothy 5:17 Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine. It would not be strange to think about getting your spouse a special thank you card or gift at regular intervals, even at such a time as this, but many would find the idea of giving a gift or sowing a personal seed to their pastor or church leader a strange idea. This restraint is definitely not from God! If your pastor or spiritual authority is nowhere near the top of your gratitude list this season, you are neglecting an important instruction from God. Our text today clearly specifies that those who labour in the Word of God and doctrine must be accorded double the regular honour or gratitude that we naturally give to others. Therefore, each time you have the opportunity to appreciate those who feed and look after you spiritually, go the extra mile to express your gratitude, and remember to do so often. Remember that no amount of money can buy that which they add to your life daily. They are a gift to you from God; cherish them and show your gratitude to them this season. Glory to God! * * * * * * * ISAIAH PROPHESIES: May your Prophet be revered in your eyes today in Jesus name. * * * * * * * Action Points DO THIS: Consider what you must give to honour God’s minister in your life today. * * * * * * * SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that I am lifted above every limitation in my life. * * * * * * * STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: ZECHARIAH 7, ACTS 23, PSALMS 10 * * * * * * * CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS.
