Text: Judges 8:1–3; Judges 12:1–6

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

Attitude is a major determinant of the quality of our relationships with God and fellow human beings. When Gideon was confronted aggressively by the men of Ephraim, his gentle response calmed their anger and prevented further conflict. However, when Jephthah faced a similar confrontation, his response escalated the disagreement into bloodshed. Judges 8:1–3; Judges 12:1–6

The difference was their attitude! A soft answer can turn away wrath, while an aggressive response can ignite unnecessary conflict (Proverbs 15:1). Marriages, friendships, businesses, and even churches can either thrive or deteriorate because of the attitudes of those involved. Sometimes, it is not the issue itself that destroys a relationship, but how we respond to it.

Your academic qualifications, professional certificates, and technical skills may secure a job, but your attitude can determine whether you retain that job, earn promotion, or build lasting professional relationships. Nobody enjoys working with someone who is arrogant, hostile, disrespectful, or unwilling to learn.

Beloved, never underestimate the power of your attitude. Learn to respond rather than react, listen rather than argue, and correct others without unnecessary hostility. Your attitude can either become a ladder to your next level or an obstacle to your progress. How do you respond when you are provoked?

Prayer Nugget: Father, help me to cultivate a godly attitude towards You and everyone around me. Deliver me from pride, anger, arrogance, and unnecessary confrontations. Let my attitude attract favour, peace, and meaningful relationships, in Jesus’ mighty name.

Prayer Nugget : Father, thank You for bringing me into November. Let Your goodness, mercy, favour, and supernatural intervention speak in every area of my life. Let this month be filled with testimonies that will glorify Your name, in Jesus’ mighty name.

Bible in One Year: John 1–2

Date: Saturday, 31st October, 2026

Text: John 10:10; Psalm 23:5

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

The third level of preparation we shall be discussing today is more-than-enough preparation. God loves excellence and delights in abundance. Jesus declared, “I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly” (John 10:10b). God does not call us to a life of careless inadequacy but to a life that reflects His abundant grace.

God is not a God of insufficiency; He is the God of abundance. When He pours into a cup, it overflows—not as a sign of wastage, but as a demonstration of His abundant provision. David testified, “Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over” (Psalm 23:5). When Jesus fed the five thousand with five loaves and two fishes, twelve baskets of fragments were gathered afterwards (John 6:1–14).

We are created in God’s image; therefore, we must cultivate a spirit of excellence and go beyond the bare minimum in whatever we do. When Saul demanded one hundred Philistine foreskins as the bride price for his daughter, David went beyond the requirement and brought two hundred (1 Samuel 18:25–27). That was more than enough! He did not merely meet the requirement; he exceeded it.

Beloved, do not develop a mentality of barely enough when God has given you the capacity to do more. Whether in your prayer life, service to God, studies, business, career, or relationships, cultivate the habit of going the extra mile. Do not just prepare to meet the demand; prepare to exceed expectations. Excellence is not doing the bare minimum; it is giving your best and making room for more.

Prayer Nugget: Father, deliver me from the mentality of insufficiency and mediocrity. Let my life, service, and accomplishments reflect Your excellence and abundance, in Jesus’ mighty name.

Bible in One Year: Luke 23–24

Date: Friday, 30th October, 2026

Text: Matthew 25:1–13; Luke 6:38

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

There are at least three levels of preparation: inadequate preparation, just-enough preparation, and more-than-enough preparation. Yesterday, we considered the danger of inadequate preparation; today, our focus is on those who prepare for just enough. Many people make preparations, but they fail to make room for unforeseen circumstances.

From childhood, my mother taught me that whenever you embark on a journey, your financial preparation should go beyond what you think is sufficient. It is better to have extra money because you never know what unexpected expenses may arise along the way. Preparing for just enough leaves you vulnerable when the unexpected happens.

The parable of the ten virgins illustrates this perfectly (Matthew 25:1–13). The five foolish virgins took oil for their lamps but made no provision for a delay, while the five wise virgins carried extra oil. When the bridegroom delayed, the foolish ones ran out of oil, but the wise ones were ready. Their extra preparation made the difference between being admitted to the wedding feast and being shut out.

Many remain average because they are accustomed to preparing for just enough, often leaving themselves stranded when challenges arise. May you never be stranded in the journey of life! Go the extra mile in prayer, fasting, giving, studying God’s Word, and evangelism. Do not settle for the bare minimum when you can prepare for more than enough.

Prayer Nugget: Father, deliver me from the habit of doing just enough. Give me the grace and discipline to go the extra mile in my spiritual life and daily responsibilities in Jesus’ mighty name.

Bible in One Year: Luke 21–22

Date: Thursday, 29th October, 2026

Text: Luke 14:28–32

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

Your level of preparation is determined by the scope of what you intend to achieve. Someone planning to build a skyscraper must prepare more than someone planning to build a three-storey building, just as the latter must prepare more than someone building a bungalow. The greater the vision, the greater the preparation required.

Jesus illustrated this principle in Luke 14:28–32, where a man planning to build a tower must first count the cost. Many fail in life because they leave things to chance or underestimate the preparation required to achieve their goals. Faith is not an excuse for poor planning; wisdom demands adequate preparation.

The taller a building must rise, the more attention must be given to its foundation. Consider the gestation periods of a rat (about three weeks), a dog (about two months), a cow (about nine months), and an elephant (about twenty-two months). Different animals have different gestation periods, reminding us that growth and development take time. The bigger the expected offspring, the longer the preparation takes.

Do not envy another person’s results without considering the preparation behind them. Ask God for wisdom to plan your today and tomorrow, and invest the discipline, knowledge, and effort your vision requires. How prepared are you for what you are asking God to do in your life? Your preparation today can influence your results tomorrow.

Prayer Nugget: Father, grant me wisdom to plan diligently and prepare adequately for the opportunities You bring my way. Deliver me from carelessness and procrastination, and help me build a solid foundation for my future, in Jesus’ mighty name.

Bible in One Year: Luke 19–20

Date: Wednesday, 28th October, 2026

Text: Acts 4:12; John 14:6

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

There are many religions in the world, but do they all lead to God? We must not allow ourselves to be misled into error in the name of religious tolerance. The Word of God confirms, “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved” (Acts 4:12).

Jesus Christ Himself made this exclusive declaration: “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” (John 14:6). He did not say He was one of many ways; He declared Himself to be the Way. Any path that rejects Christ as the only Saviour cannot lead us to the Father. The belief that all religions are simply different roads to the same God contradicts the clear teaching of Scripture.

The Lord Jesus Christ is unique in His identity and mission. He was born of a virgin through the power of the Holy Ghost, shed His blood for the redemption of mankind, rose bodily from the dead, and ascended into Heaven. His resurrection was witnessed by His followers, and He has promised to return. No human religious leader can take His place in God’s plan of salvation. Christianity is not about combining religious beliefs; it is about placing our faith completely in Jesus Christ.

Beloved, do not allow the pressure to appear tolerant, diplomatic, or acceptable to the world to make you dilute the truth of the Gospel. Syncretism attempts to blend what God has clearly distinguished, but the believer must stand firmly on the Word of God. Jesus is not merely a way to God; He is the only way to the Father.

Prayer Nugget: Father, establish my heart in the truth of Your Word. Deliver me from deception and every teaching that seeks to diminish the Lordship of Jesus Christ.

Bible in One Year: Luke 16–18

Date: Tuesday, 27th October, 2026

Text: 1 Kings 11:1–11

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

Solomon, the wisest king who ever lived, started well by devoting his heart to God, as his father David had done, and he enjoyed unprecedented peace. But along the line, he began to compromise his devotion. He formed marital alliances with pagan nations, probably for political reasons, despite God’s clear warning that such relationships could turn his heart towards other gods.

The same hand Solomon used to build a temple for God was later used to build altars and high places for strange gods. What a contradiction! His father David would never have done this. In trying to accommodate his foreign wives and perhaps maintain political unity, Solomon compromised his loyalty to God and made room for the very idolatry God had forbidden.

God is a jealous God who will not share His glory with idols (Isaiah 42:8). Solomon’s problem was not merely that he married foreign women; it was that he allowed their gods to turn his heart away from the Lord. The man who once built God’s temple became a promoter of idolatry. When we prioritise pleasing people above obeying God, we risk losing what God has entrusted to us. Solomon’s disobedience brought God’s judgment, and the kingdom was eventually torn from his house.

Beloved, do not allow political interests, business relationships, marital connections, or the desire to please people to draw you away from God. You cannot compromise God’s truth in the name of diplomacy and expect to remain faithful to Him. Remember, whatever makes you accommodate what God condemns is a threat to your devotion. Let your loyalty to God remain undivided.

Prayer Nugget: Father, deliver me from every compromise that can turn my heart away from You. Give me the courage to obey You above the pressure to please people, and let nothing or no one take Your place in my life, in Jesus’ mighty name.

Bible in One Year: Luke 13–15

Date: Monday, 26th October, 2026

Text: 2 Kings 17:33; 2 Corinthians 6:14–18

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

When you try to mix kerosene with water, it is only a matter of time before the two separate. It is like trying to mix iron with clay; the two cannot become one. In the same way, purity and integrity demand that we do not blend our devotion to God with practices that contradict His Word.

It is also like marriage: a faithful spouse does not share marital devotion with another. In the same way, you cannot serve both God and mammon (Matthew 6:24). Syncretism is the blending of different, often contradictory, religious beliefs and practices into one system.

We see this in 2 Kings 17:33, where the people feared the Lord yet served their own gods. Sadly, this still happens today: some profess Christ but continue to serve village idols, compromise their faith for business partnerships, or accommodate other deities to avoid offending people. They are Christians on Sunday, Muslims on Friday, and worshippers of other gods when situation presents it.

But God’s Word is clear: “And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols?” (2 Corinthians 6:16). We cannot claim to belong wholly to Christ while sharing His place with idols. God calls us to come out from among them and be separate (2 Corinthians 6:17). Our devotion to God must be exclusive, undivided, and uncompromising.

Prayer Nugget: Father, deliver me from every form of syncretism and divided loyalty. Give me the courage to reject every practice that competes with Your place in my life, and help me to serve You in spirit and in truth, in Jesus’ mighty name.

Bible in One Year: Luke 11–12

Date: Sunday, 25th October, 2026

Text: Proverbs 3:5–6

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

It is relatively easy to choose between good and evil because the difference is often obvious. However, the real test of discernment comes when we must choose between two good things that appear equally attractive. It could be two promising jobs offering similar salaries or choosing a life partner from among equally attractive, godly, and spiritually committed believers. In such situations, making the right choice requires more than human reasoning.

This is where the grace of discernment becomes essential. God sees the hearts of men, knows our future, and understands us better than we understand ourselves. While we may be impressed by outward appearances and immediate benefits, God sees the hidden details and long-term consequences. That is why Proverbs 3:5–6 instructs us to trust in the Lord rather than lean on our own understanding, allowing Him to direct our paths.

Beloved, the fact that something is good does not mean it is good for you as an individual; and it doesn’t necessarily mean it is God’s best for you. Not every attractive opportunity is your divine opportunity, and not every open door is a door you should enter. Ask God for wisdom and discernment before making life-changing decisions.

Prayer Nugget: Father, grant me the grace to discern correctly in every decision I make. Help me to recognize Your perfect will and choose what is best according to Your purpose for my life, in Jesus’ mighty name.

Bible in One Year: Luke 9–10

Date: Saturday, 24th October, 2026

Text: Isaiah 66:1–2, 5

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

Many of us have become so familiar with certain important scriptures that we have lost the weight and significance of their meaning. We quote them so frequently that they no longer stir our hearts or move us to obedience. Yet God declares in Isaiah 66:2, “But to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word.”

Some of us even sing God’s Word in songs, but have reduced sacred truths to mere musical lyrics without a corresponding sense of urgency, reverence, or responsibility. We sing about holiness without pursuing holiness, forgiveness without forgiving others, and obedience without submitting to God’s instructions. When familiarity with the Word no longer produces obedience, we must examine the condition of our hearts.

To tremble at God’s Word is to hold it in reverence, take His instructions seriously, repent when corrected, and obey even when obedience is uncomfortable. Isaiah 66:5 speaks of those who tremble at God’s Word, reminding us that genuine reverence for God must go beyond hearing and speaking His Word. Beloved, when last did a scripture convict you, correct you, or cause you to change your ways?

Prayer Nugget: Father, deliver me from taking Your Word for granted. Restore in me a contrite heart that trembles at Your Word, responds to Your correction, and obeys Your instructions wholeheartedly, in Jesus’ mighty name.
