  1. Shalon Beloved, you are welcome to today's Morning Glory Devotion.

  2. We are Pastor in diginess kills him from the Harvest

  3. Chapel International Daniamko Marcy, and we are delighted to be

  4. bringing you another episode of our Morning Glory devotion. Let

  5. us kindly share a word of prayer. Our heavely Father,

  6. we thank you for this wonderful privilege given to us

  7. to come and hear your word. We pray that Lord

  8. you open our hearts and grant us the nourishments that

  9. only can come from your word in Jesu's name. Pray

  10. with thanksgiving. Amen, let us kindly take our confession for today.

  11. Our confession is taken from josh Wat Chapter one the

  12. verse eight. Josh Wat Chapter one, the verse eight. This

  13. book of the Law shall not depart from my mouth,

  14. but I shall meditate in it day and night, that

  15. I may observe to do according to all that is

  16. written in it. For then I will make my way prosperous,

  17. and then I will have good success. Amen. Today's message

  18. is titled A Balanced Diet. A Balanced Diet written by

  19. Miss Amanda Baidu. Our scripture readings shall be taken from

  20. Luk chapter two, the verse fifty two, and Hebrews Chapter five,

  21. the verse twelve to fourteen. Look chapter two, the verse

  22. fifty two and Hebrews Chapter five, the verse twelve to fourteen.

  23. I will be reading from the New King James version.

  24. Look chapter two the verse fifty two, and Jesus increased

  25. in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men. Amen.

  26. Hebrews chapter five, the verse twelve to fourteen. For though

  27. by this time you ought to be teachers, you need

  28. some one to teach you again the first principles of

  29. the oracles of God. And you have come to need

  30. milk and not solid food. For every one who partakes

  31. only of milk is unskilled in the Word of righteousness,

  32. for he is a babe. But solid food belongs to

  33. those who are of full age, that is, those who,

  34. by reason of use, have their senses exercised to descend

  35. both good and evil. The Lord adds his blessings to

  36. the reading and hearing of this word. Thanks be to God. Amen.

  37. A balanced diet, A balanced diet. Beloved, we have a

  38. duty to grow in the Lord as his children, and

  39. we can only grow when we feed well. The bonn

  40. again experience is an entry point into the Kingdom of

  41. God and an entry points to all the things God

  42. has in store for us. When we get born again,

  43. we are adopted into the family of God and become

  44. His children. After receiving the Seal of the Holy Spirit.

  45. We have a responsibility to grow in the faith by

  46. feeding the right, and God gives us access to ingredients

  47. which are designed to help us grow. These resources include

  48. studying the Word, prayer, obeying the promptings of the Holy Spirit,

  49. fasten fellowship in Word, believers given, serving others, and many more.

  50. And all these are ingredients required to help us grow. Beloved,

  51. we cannot pick and choose what we want to feed on.

  52. We must have a balanced diet of all these ingredients

  53. if we want to grow as healthy believers. A believer

  54. who prays and does not read a word will suffer

  55. standard growth. Similarly, a believer who only feeds on the

  56. Word but doesn't pray or go to church will suffer luck. Beloved,

  57. God has designed all these elements in our nutrition to

  58. help us grow and become strong in spirit, just like Jesus.

  59. They are all important, and therefore we must attend to

  60. all of them. By the help of the Holy Spirit.

  61. Feeding on a balanced die of all these ingredients will

  62. build up our faith and sharpen our service to the Lord.

  63. So let us examine ourselves. Are we feeling well? Are

  64. we lacking in certain areas of our growth? Are we

  65. neglecting prayer or fasting, or fellowship or obedience. Let us

  66. assess our nutrition and make sure we are eating a

  67. balance dite so that we can grow and become strong

  68. and healthy in the Lord. Amen, let us kindly take

  69. our memory verse for today. Our memory verse for today

  70. is taken from Second Picture, Chapter one, the Best ten

  71. two Peter Chapter one, the West ten. I will be

  72. reading from the New King James version. Therefore, Brethren, be

  73. even more diligent to make your call an election shore,

  74. for if you do these things, you will never stumble. Therefore, Brethren,

  75. be even more diligence to make your call an election shore,

  76. for if you do these things, you will never stumble. Amen,

  77. let us kind of share a word of prayer. Our

  78. heavily Father, We thank you for the rich resources you

  79. have provided for our spiritual growth. We admit that there

  80. are times we have neglected certain areas of our work

  81. with you. We have been picking and choosing only what

  82. is comfortable. Please grant us the grace and the discipline

  83. by your Holy Spirit to maintain a balanced spiritual diet.

  84. Help us to dedicate ourselves deeply to prayer, to steady

  85. your word, to fasting, to fellowship, and seven, so that

  86. we may grow to become strong and healthy believers in

  87. our faith, just like Jesus. In Jesus' might name, we pray. Amen, Beloved,

  88. Always remember that to grow into healthy and mature believers,

  89. we cannot pick and choose our spiritual food. We must

  90. discipline ourselves to take all the ingredients God will have

  91. us take. Amen. Thank you so much for being a

  92. part of today's Morning Glory Devotion. We look forward to
