Hell Is Real (2)

Date: Saturday, 26th September, 2026

Text: Matthew 25:41, 46; John 3:16–17

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

Jesus spoke about Hell more than anyone else in Scripture, not because He delights in judgment, but because He desires that no one should perish. Hell was prepared for “the devil and his angels” (Matthew 25:41), yet those who persistently reject God’s offer of salvation choose separation from Him. Christ’s repeated warnings reveal the depth of His love, for He tells us the danger so that we may escape it.

The greatest rescue mission in history was the Cross. “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son” (John 3:16). Jesus came to save sinners, forgive the repentant, and give eternal life to all who believe in Him. God’s mercy is available today, but His invitation must not be postponed.

Do not gamble with eternity. Receive Christ wholeheartedly, continue in holiness, and encourage others to do the same. The greatest success in life is not wealth, fame, or achievement—it is hearing the Lord say, “Well done,” and entering His eternal Kingdom.

Prayer Nugget: Father, thank You for the gift of salvation through Jesus Christ. Keep me faithful until the end, and use my life to lead others to the path of eternal life, in Jesus’ name.

Hell Is Real (1)

Date: Friday, 25th September, 2026

Text: Hebrews 9:27; Mark 9:43–48

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

Wise people prepare before the day of crisis. We prepare for war in times of peace, save during seasons of plenty, and make preparations for eternity while we still have breath on earth. The greatest preparation anyone can make is not merely for tomorrow’s needs but for where they will spend eternity.

It is dangerous to dismiss the reality of Hell simply because it is unseen. Just as earthly societies have prisons for those who violate justice, God’s perfect justice also has eternal consequences for unrepentant sin. Scripture declares, “It is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment” (Hebrews 9:27).

Jesus described Hell as a place “where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched” (Mark 9:48). These solemn warnings were not given to frighten us unnecessarily but to awaken us to the seriousness of eternity. While there is still time, choose the path that leads to life.

Prayer Nugget: Father, give me the wisdom to live with eternity in view. Help me to walk in repentance, obedience, and faithfulness, so that I will never depart from the path of life, in Jesus’ name.

Don’t Miss Heaven (2)

Date: Thursday, 24th September, 2026

Text: Revelation 21:4, 18–23

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

The Bible gives us a glimpse of Heaven’s incomparable glory. “God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying” (Revelation 21:4). Every pain, disappointment, grief, and suffering we experience in this present world will forever disappear in God’s presence.

John describes the heavenly city as one built with jasper walls, foundations adorned with precious stones, gates of pearl, and streets of pure gold like transparent glass (Revelation 21:18–21). Yet the greatest beauty of Heaven is not its splendour but the presence of God Himself. “The Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it… the glory of God did lighten it” (Revelation 21:22–23).

Let the hope of Heaven shape the way you live today. Endure faithfully, pursue holiness, and keep your eyes fixed on Christ. The sufferings of this present life cannot compare with the eternal glory awaiting those who belong to Him.

Prayer Nugget: Father, let the hope of Heaven strengthen me to live faithfully every day. Keep my eyes fixed on Christ until I rejoice forever in Your glorious presence, in Jesus’ name.

Don’t Miss Heaven (1)

Date: Wednesday, 23rd September, 2026

Text: John 14:1–3; Matthew 18:8–9

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

There are no human words sufficient to describe the beauty, joy, glory, and peace of Heaven. The most beautiful place on earth cannot compare with the home Christ is preparing for His people. Jesus gave this comforting assurance: “In my Father’s house are many mansions… I go to prepare a place for you” (John 14:2). Heaven is real, and our greatest preparation should be to make it there.

Because Heaven is eternal, it is worth every sacrifice required to enter it. Jesus said, “If thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off… it is better for thee to enter into life” (Matthew 18:8–9). He was teaching that no sin, pleasure, relationship, or possession is worth losing eternal life.

Live each day with eternity in view. Guard your heart, obey God’s Word, and refuse to exchange everlasting joy for temporary pleasures. Whatever this world offers will pass away, but those who remain faithful to Christ will inherit a Kingdom that will never end.

Prayer Nugget: Father, fix my heart on eternity. Give me grace to forsake every sin and remain faithful to Christ until I enter the glorious home He has prepared for me, in Jesus’ name.

The Ways of God (8)

Date: Tuesday, 22nd September, 2026

Text: Exodus 23:2; Matthew 7:13–14

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

Human society often assumes that the majority must be right. Some even say that the opinion of the majority is God’s opinion. But Scripture teaches otherwise. God warns, “Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil” (Exodus 23:2). What is celebrated by men is not always approved by God, and what is popular can sometimes be detestable in His sight.

The days of Noah prove this truth. The whole world had turned away from God, yet only eight people were found righteous and were preserved through the flood (1 Peter 3:20). Likewise, in Sodom and Gomorrah, only Lot and his family were delivered while the cities perished. God’s standard has never been determined by the crowd but by His unchanging Word.

Jesus declared that “wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction… and many there be which go in thereat” while “narrow is the way… which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it” (Matthew 7:13–14). Do not measure truth by popularity. The world and its desires are passing away, but those who remain faithful to God’s Word—even if they stand in the minority—will inherit everlasting life.

Prayer Nugget: Father, give me the courage to stand for Your truth even when I stand alone. Help me never to follow the crowd into error, but to remain faithful to Your Word until the end, in Jesus’ name.

The Ways of God (7)

Date: Monday, 21st September, 2026

Text: Proverbs 25:21–22; Matthew 5:43–48

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

One of the most challenging ways of God is that He calls us to love beyond human instinct. Human nature finds it easy to love those who love us and dislike those who hurt us, but God’s way is different. “If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink” (Proverbs 25:21). In God’s Kingdom, kindness is stronger than revenge, and mercy triumphs over bitterness.

Jesus raised the standard even higher when He said, “Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you” (Matthew 5:44). This kind of love is not natural; it is supernatural. It does not excuse wrongdoing, but it refuses to allow hatred to rule the heart. When we respond with Christlike love, we reflect the character of our Heavenly Father, who shows kindness to both the just and the unjust.

True spiritual maturity is revealed not by how we treat those who are good to us, but by how we respond to those who offend us. Choosing forgiveness over vengeance, blessing over cursing, and prayer over retaliation breaks the cycle of hatred. As children of God, let our lives demonstrate the Father’s perfect love in a world that desperately needs it.

Prayer Nugget: Father, fill my heart with the love of Christ. Give me grace to forgive those who have hurt me, bless those who oppose me, and reflect Your mercy and kindness in every relationship, in Jesus’ name.

The Ways of God (6)

Date: Sunday, 20th September, 2026

Text: Mark 11:23–24

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

Another way in which God’s ways differ from man’s ways is in the matter of faith. Human reasoning says, “Seeing is believing,” but God’s Word says, “Believing is seeing.” The natural man wants visible evidence before he believes, but God calls us to trust His Word even before the evidence appears. Faith is confidence in God’s promises before they become physical realities.

Jesus taught this principle in Mark 11:23–24 when He said that whoever speaks to a mountain and does not doubt in his heart, but believes, shall have what he says. He further declared, “What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.” God expects us to believe first and then receive. Faith reaches into the invisible realm and lays hold of what God has promised before it manifests in the visible realm.

This was the secret of many heroes of faith. They trusted God’s Word despite contrary circumstances. If God has spoken concerning your life, do not wait for visible proof before believing Him. Hold firmly to His promises, pray with expectation, and continue walking in obedience. In God’s Kingdom, faith comes before sight, and believing comes before seeing.

Prayer Nugget: Father, strengthen my faith to trust Your Word above what I see or feel. Help me to believe Your promises without doubting, and let my faith produce visible testimonies that will glorify Your name, in Jesus’ name.

The Ways of God (5)

Date: Saturday, 19th September, 2026

Text: Proverbs 11:24–25

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

One of the surprising ways of God is that His economy is different from the world’s economy. Human wisdom says that the way to have more is to hold tightly to everything you possess. But God’s Word declares, “There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty” (Proverbs 11:24). In God’s Kingdom, generosity is not a loss—it is a pathway to increase.

This principle goes beyond money. We can scatter kindness, encouragement, forgiveness, time, prayers, and love, and God has a way of returning what is sown in His own perfect measure. “The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself” (Proverbs 11:25). When we become channels of blessing, God ensures that the channel never runs dry.

Live with an open hand rather than a clenched fist. Give as the Holy Spirit leads, help those in need, and trust God as your Source rather than your possessions. The more you reflect God’s generous nature, the more you position yourself to experience His abundant provision.

Prayer Nugget: Father, deliver me from the fear of lack and give me a generous heart. Make me a channel of blessing to others, and let Your abundant provision continually flow through my life, in Jesus’ name.

The Ways of God (4)

Date: Friday, 18th September, 2026

Text: Matthew 20:25–28

Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan

Exhortation:

One of the greatest ways of God is that true greatness is measured by service. The natural man often seeks titles, recognition, and opportunities to exercise authority over others. But Jesus overturned the world’s definition of greatness when He said, “Whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister” (Matthew 20:26). In God’s Kingdom, leadership is not about being served; it is about serving.

Jesus is our perfect example. Though He is the King of kings, “the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many” (Matthew 20:28). He washed His disciples’ feet, fed the hungry, healed the broken, and ultimately laid down His life for humanity. His greatness was revealed through humility, sacrifice, and love.

If we truly desire to walk in God’s ways, we must exchange pride for servanthood. Whether at home, in church, at work, or in society, seek opportunities to lift others rather than dominate them. The hands that serve faithfully are the hands that God delights to honour.

Prayer Nugget: Father, clothe me with the humility of Christ and give me a servant’s heart. Help me to seek greatness through serving others, and let my life reflect the love and selflessness of Jesus, in His mighty name.
