*THE RESTORER'S DAILY GUIDE*

DATE: FRIDAY 13TH JUNE 2025

THEME: *KEEP YOURSELF*

MEMORIZE
1 John 5:18
We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.

READ
John 10:17-18
Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.
No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have the power to lay it down, and I have the power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
*You will be kept by God if you keep yourself.*

MESSAGE
The wicked one is not permitted to touch lives that are kept by their owners.

If you keep yourself, you will be kept by God.

One of the greatest privileges of those born of God is the power to keep themselves from the enemy of their souls and lives.

A life that is kept is secured, strong, safe, and unscathed.

The bold assertion of the LORD in today's text is a testimony of the fact that the Lord Jesus Christ kept His life from being taken by the enemy.

It is only what we keep from the enemy that enjoys divine preservation. Satan steals, kills, and destroys cheaply what we fail to keep.

Those who fail to keep themselves have announced to Satan their availability for destruction.

When men fail to keep themselves, they make themselves available for death and destruction.

It is important to note that the only people that God has on earth are those who have kept themselves.

Knowing what to keep yourself from, where to keep yourself, how to keep yourself, and keeping yourself is superior intelligence than that of the serpent that eats fallen men and women.

Those who know how to keep themselves are smarter than the serpent. God keeps them from evil and preserves them for His mighty works on the earth and for posterity.

A life that is kept is not easily touched by the enemy.

Many people are battling with so many unsavoury issues today due to the fact that they were not able to keep themselves.

For instance, those who fail to keep themselves from alcohol may face alcohol related issues in their health progressively, those who expose themselves to immorality are likely to be infested with sexually transmitted diseases, those who expose themselves to cigarettes are not likely to escape certain illnesses related to smoking of cigarettes, those who expose themselves to violence and reckless living are likely to die young. The list is endless of the things people expose themselves to and entangled themselves with in life, leading to so many issues and painful regrets.

Beloved, take my counsel today whilst your life is still whole in you, keep yourself free from sin, and you will be exempted from its ugly consequences.

The truth is that you can keep yourself. It's within your divine powers.

*You can do all things through Christ who strengthens you.*

ACTION STEPS
1. Prayerfully meditate on today's devotional guide.
2. Ask the Holy Spirit to help you keep yourself from everything that destroys men
3. Be determined to stay kept by God.

REMEMBER
*You will be kept by God if you keep yourself.*

PRAYERS
Dear heavenly Father, Thank you for today's devotional guide. I receive grace to be kept by God from every evil and to stay preserved by God in Jesus' name. Amen.

HYMN
What a Friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear !
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer !
Oh, what peace we often forfeit,
Oh, what needless pain we bear------
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer !

2
Have we trials and temptations ?
Is there trouble anywhere ?
We should never be discouraged ;
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a Friend so faithful,
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness-----
Take it to the Lord in prayer !

3
Are we weak and heavy-laden,
Cumbered with a load of care ?
Precious Saviour, still our refuge-----
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee ?
Take it to the Lord in prayer ;
In His arms He'll take and shield thee.
Thou wilt find a solace there,

DATE: WEDNESDAY 11TH JUNE 2025

THEME: *STAND OUT!*

MEMORIZE
John 15:19
If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

READ
1 John 2:15-17
[15]Do not love or cherish the world or the things that are in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in him.
[16]For all that is in the world–the lust of the flesh [craving for sensual gratification] and the lust of the eyes [greedy longings of the mind] and the pride of life [assurance in one's own resources or in the stability of earthly things]–these do not come from the Father but are from the world [itself].
[17]And the world passes away and disappears, and with it the forbidden cravings (the passionate desires, the lust) of it; but he who does the will of God and carries out His purposes in his life abides (remains) forever.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
*Loving the world is proof of lack of love for the LORD.*

MESSAGE
God did not call us to like the world or to be liked by the world, He called us to be His light to this dark world; and we do that by standing out as godly people.

We are not called to fit into this world but to stand out and stand tall enough to make a difference with our Christ-like lives.

We can not be pleasing to this world no matter how much we seek its validation and approval.

This world hates Jesus Christ our Lord, we should never love the world that killed our Saviour. To love the world is to betray our dear Lord and Saviour.

A world that crucified a perfect man like Jesus Christ will stop at nothing to destroy all who follow the Lord Jesus Christ.

We should, therefore, not be looking for anything else from this world other than to save its lost souls for the LORD.

If you live seeking the acceptance of this world, you will die suffering from the rejection of the world.

God's approval and applause are all you need to win in this life and be graciously accepted and celebrated in the world to come.

The only difference between us and this "sin-infested" world is Jesus Christ in us and the "Christ-lessness" in the world.

Therefore, my beloved, do not seek validation from the world that hated our Lord and Saviour enough to crucify Him.

If the world does not want my Saviour, I do not want the world either. It is strange to love the world that killed our Saviour and Lord and still claim to be following Him...

Who is on the LORD'S SIDE???

STAND OUT NOW!!!

ACTION STEPS
1. Prayerfully meditate on today's devotional guide.
2. Be determined to make a difference by strictly following the ways of the LORD always. Damn any consequences for following the LORD.
3. Fear nothing and no one else if you truly fear the LORD. He is the ultimate in the universe.

REMEMBER
*Loving the world is proof of lack of love for the LORD.*

PRAYERS
Dear heavenly Father, Thank you for today's devotional guide. I receive grace to truly follow you acceptably and faithfully to the end in Jesus' name. Amen.

HYMN
Arise and follow Me !
Alas, my Lord, I hear Thy word,
But Thee Thyself I can but dimly see ;
Help me to rise and follow Thee.

2
Arise and follow Me !
But I am bound to earth's cold ground
By many a tie : Come, Lord, and set me free,
Then I shall rise and follow Thee.

3
Arise and follow Me !
The way is rough, but 'tis enough
That through my life Thou wilt my
Leader be ;
And I will boldly follow Thee.

4
Arise and follow Me ! [tomb,
In mist and gloom, through tears and
Up golden streets and by the crystal sea,
I shall forever follow Thee,

PLEASE SHARE

Good morning my beloved brethren. I trust you are doing great , Praise God!

TODAY'S WORD OF GOD:

"Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. Matthew 24:35"

Following the Lord Jesus Christ in His speech and conduct makes greatness inevitable.
The greatest creation of God is heaven, followed by the earth. If these two greatest creations can pass away, what should you and I depend on to remain?
It is clear from the opening scripture that only the *Word of God stands forever* ; hence, to be able to remain, stand firm, and be relevant at all times depends on the Word of God.

Dear beloved, there is greatness in you because you are born again, but to manifest that greatness for the world to see and glorify God, you have to take the Holy Scriptures seriously and meditate on them day and night (Psalms 1:2-3).
May the Word of God make us as great as God wants us to be in Jesus Christ name. Be blessed!
SHALOM!

This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

THEME: *THE ULTIMATE POWER.*

MEMORIZE
Luke 5:5
And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.

READ
Luke 5:4-9
Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.
And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.
And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake.
And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink.
When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord.
For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the draught of the fishes which they had taken:

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: *When we submit to God's word over our lives, we have submitted to the ultimate in the universe.*

MESSAGE
The universe came into existence at the instance of God's spoken word.

He literally spoke everything into existence and held them in place firmly by the same word. So powerful is the Word, that He Himself submits to His word.

Everything is a product of words relatively.

Every man or woman is a product of words. We all are products of the words we have listened to cumulatively over the years.

The medical doctor was made by listening to certain words over a period of time. The lawyer was made by words. The Architect is a product of words. Our parents moulded our lives with words.

And God moulded the universe by simply speaking.

*In the realms of words, God's word is the ultimate.*

The Bible puts it this way;
Psalms 138:2 "I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name."

The word is the greatest revelation of God in the universe. He has always existed as the Word. He manifested as the Word. His word is His bond.

And when we submit to God's word over our lives, we have submitted to the ultimate in the universe. There is nothing as great as the Word of God anywhere in the universe.

The one who submits to God's word will be put in command of the world, because God rules and runs the world by His word.

It appeared that Peter the fisherman understood this truth even as an unschooled fisherman that he was.

As against his professional ethics in fishery, he hearkened to the word of the Son of God and his night was turned into day.
Peter became an apostle of the Word because he was converted by the power of the word that worked in his life. He was a living witness of the wonders of God's word.

*Beloved, everything changes and turns around at God's word.*

It doesn't matter how bad your case may be today, there is hope for you if you will surrender your life to God through His word and begin to obey what He says.

Make the word of God your greatest companion today, and your story will surely be rewritten. Shalom.

ACTION STEPS
1. Locate the scriptures that deals directly with your peculiar case and apply them to your life.
2. Meditate on them regularly until they become part of your life.
3. Act on them, speak them over your case until your change becomes obvious.

PRAYERS
Dear heavenly Father, thank you for today's devotional guide. Open my eyes that I might see wondrous things from your word. And let my own seasons of enjoying your wonders begin in Jesus name. Amen.

REMEMBER
*When we submit to God's word over our lives, we have submitted to the ultimate in the universe.*

HYMN
" There shall be showers of blessing " :
This is the promise of love ;
There shall be seasons refreshing,
Sent from the Saviour above.

Show - - ers of blessing,
Showers of blessing we need ;
Mercy-drops round us are falling,
But for the showers we plead.

2
" There shall be showers of blessing "
Precious reviving again ;
Over the hills and the valleys,
Sound of abundance of rain.

3
" There shall be showers of blessing " :
Send them upon us, O Lordl
Grant to us now a refreshing ;
Come, and now honour Thy Word.

4
" There shall be showers of blessing ":
Oh that to-day they might fall,
Now as to God we're confessing,
Now as on Jesus we call !
