Follow The Kingdom Meal for your daily devotional..
DATE: MONDAY, 14TH JULY 2025.
TOPIC: THE RESPONSIBILITY OF FREEDOM.
SCRIPTURE: And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force. MATTHEW 11:12.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: There is no rise without risk.
Bulldogs have been confirmed to be one of the most tenacious animals on earth. Their nose tilts backward as an adaptation mechanism, so that if they hold onto anything, they will still have enough air to breathe.
I heard a story about a little bulldog some time ago. The little bulldog would usually leave its compound to go and fight with a very big dog in another compound.
The big dog would beat it, and it would return home for that day. The following day, the little bulldog would return for another round of fight, and the big dog would beat it as usual. The little bulldog got up and went home but still came back again the next day for yet another round of fight. This cycle continues until one day, the big dog started running when it sighted the small bulldog approaching.
And I am sure, the big dog must be thinking, “I am not running because you are stronger than I; I am running because you are tireless, and I am wearied out. Okay, let me agree that you have won the fight so you can leave me alone.”
You see, the little bulldog accepted the responsibility to become victorious, and nothing could stop it. It was indeed victorious.
We live in a generation where many people don’t want to accept responsibility for anything. It is a symptom of mental bondage. When a person is mentally bound, he dodges challenges; he looks for a plastic life instead of a realistic life. That was the problem of the Israelites in the wilderness on their way to the Promised Land when they came out of Egypt. Every little challenge, they would complain to Moses. Their minds were so bound that they could not cope with the reality of a free life.
When people are bound mentally, they avoid anything that challenges their ability. But the truth is, there is no reach without stretch, and there is no rise without risk. For an airplane to fly in the sky, it takes risks. If you must fly high in life, you must embrace risks. And if you must survive, you must be ready to fight.
Beloved, even if a witch or a wizard is after your life, there is a degree of tenacity, violence, and iron will, that you can deploy and that witch or wizard will have no choice but to leave you alone.
Beloved, accept the responsibility to fight and win. Accept the responsibility to go up and stay up.
Remember this: There is no rise without risk.
ASSIGNMENT(S):
1. Always accept responsibility; refuse to dodge challenges.
2. Trust God to help you handle any challenge facing you.
3. Search the scripture and locate light (bullets) that will keep you in permanent victory.
PRAYER: Lord, I receive the grace to accept responsibility for my victory and success in life. I refuse to be swallowed up by the challenges of life. I triumph over the storms of life, Lord, In Jesus’ Name.

DAILY BIBLE READING: Song of Songs 6-8
QUOTE: Never accept or give any excuse for being where you are…Accept responsibility. Culled from the book, 30 Secrets to the Top by Dr Paul Enenche.
AMAZING FACT: Lion cubs are born blind and depend on their mothers for survival.
PROPHETIC DECLARATION/WORD: I decree the release of your liberty as you accept responsibility in this season in Jesus Name.
