To Trust In The Lord
The Phaneroo Devotion: To Trust In The Lord
Apostle Grace Lubega
Jeremiah 17:5-7(KJV); Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD. For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited. Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is.
When we speak of trusting in the arm of flesh, some people assume that it is only trusting in other men and depending on them for survival. This is not the only angle, child of God. Trusting in the arm of flesh also involves trusting in your own self and your own ability.
When we look to what we can do and what we can achieve by virtue of our status in society, our physical appearance, our academic qualifications or our bank account balances, that too is trusting in the arm of flesh.
When we think that success is achievable by our rigid self-discipline, our enduring charisma and charm, our smooth accents and hard work, that too is to put trust in the arm of flesh.
God does not expect you to put your trust in any man, beginning with yourself. In the same way that men can fail you, you too can fail yourself.
In your own power, you are capable of great self-disappointment. It doesn’t matter how lofty your view of your self is, life has proved over and over again how the mighty do fall.
This does not mean that we should discredit any form of self-belief and hang ourselves on the trees of self-doubt by the noose of insecurity. Rather, it means that any form of trust in self must start with trust in God. It is what He has done in us that we lean on as a guarantee for success. It is His power in us that we rely on for achievement.
Hallelujah!
FURTHER STUDY: Proverbs 3:5, Psalm 40:4
GOLDEN NUGGET: Any form of trust in self must start with trust in God. It is what He has done in us that we lean on as a guarantee for success. It is His power in us that we rely on for achievement.
PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this Word. You are the beginning, the middle and the end of my life. You are at the centre of my existence and my trust is fully in You. In whatsoever I do, I choose to look to You, the unshakeable, unchangeable and unbreakable God. In Jesus’ name, Amen
OKWESIGA MUKAMA
Omutume Grace Lubega
Yeremiya 17:5-7(KJV); Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti; Akolimiddwa omusajja oyo eyeesiga abantu, n’afuula omubiri okuba ensibuko y’amaanyi ge, n’omutima gwe ne guva ku Mukama. Kubanga alifaanana omwoloola oguli mu ddungu, so taliraba ebirungi ebirijja; naye alibeera mu biwalakate mu ddungu, ensi ey’omunnyo eteriimu bantu. Naye alina omukisa omusajja oyo eyeesiga Mukama, era Mukama nga lye ssuubi lye.
Bwe twogera ku kwesiga omukono gw’omuntu, abantu abamu bateebereza nti kiri ku kwesiga bantu balala era okwesigama ku bbo okubeerawo kyokka. Wabula tekiri kw’ekyo kyokka, mwana wa Katonda. Okwesiga omukono gw’omuntu era kirimu n’okuteeka obwesige mu ggwe kennyini nga weesigama ku busobozi bwo.
Bwe tutunuulira ebyo bye tusobola okukola era okufuna olw’eddaala kwetuli mu bitundu byaffe ebyenjawulo, endabika yaffe, ebisaanyizo byaffe eby’emisomo oba omutitimbi gw’ensimbi gwe tulina mu banka zaffe, ekyo nakyo kitegeeza kussa bwesige mumukono gw’omuntu.
Bwe tulowooza nti obuwanguzi butuukibwako okuyita mu kutambulira mu mpisa ezitaliiko kamogo, oba mukubeera emmekete z’abasajja abatanyigirwa mu nnoga, oba nate munjogera yaffe ey’eggwoowo ,awamu n’okukola obutaweera, ekyo nakyo kuba kuteeka bwesige mu mukono gw’omuntu.
Katonda takusuubira kuteeka bwesige bwo mu muntu yenna, okutandika naawe wennyini. Mu ngeri y’emu abantu nga bwe basobola okulemererwa, naawe era osobola okulemererwa.
Mu maanyi go, osobolera ddala okweyiwayo ng’enjogera yennaku zino bweri. Ssi nsonga oba weerabira waggulu otya, obulamu butulaze era nebutukakasiza ddala emirundi mingi ejjeddiηηana, ng’abantu abamaanyi balabibwa nga bagwa saako okulemererwa entakera.
Kino tekitegeeza nti tetulina kwekkiririzaamu era mbu tutuule ntende mu ntebe y’okwebuusabuusa wakati w’okutya, wabula, kitegeeza nti engeri yonna ey’okwesiga mu ffe erina kutandika n’obwesige mu Katonda. Kiri ku kki Kyakoze mu ffe kwe twesigama ng’okukakasa kw’obuwanguzi bwaffe. Amaanyi Ge mu ffe kwe twesigama okusobola okufuna byetwetaaga.
Alleluya!
YONGERA OSOME: Engero 3:5, Zabbuli 40:4
AKASUMBI KA ZAABU: Engeri yonna ey’okwesiga mu ffe erina kutandika n’obwesige mu Katonda. Kiri ku ki Ky’akoze mu ffe kwe twesigama ng’okukakasa kw’obuwanguzi bwaffe. Amaanyi Ge mu ffe kwe twesigama okusobola okufuna byetwetaaga.
ESSAALA: Kitange omwagalwa, nkwebaza ku lw’Ekigambo kino. Oli ntandikwa, massekkati era enkomerero y’obulamu bwange. Oli nkulungo y’okubeerawo kwange era obwesige bwange bujjuvu mu Ggwe. Mu buli kye nkola, nnondawo okutunuulira Ggwe, atanyeenyezebwa, atakyukakyuka era Katonda atamenyebwa. Mu linnya erya Yesu, Amiina.

OKWESIGA MUKAMA
Entumwa Grace Lubega
Yeremia 17:5-7 Oku nikwo MUKAMA arikugamba naagira ati: Orikwesiga ondiijo muntu, Akahindura omuntu-buntu eky’okumurinda, Akaimuura MUKAMA omu mutima gwe, akyeenirwe. Ari nk’akashaka k’omu ihamba, Kandi ekirungi kyona ekiriija tarikireeba, Kureka aryatuura omu myanya y’omu ihamba ekarangataine, Omu nsi y’omwonyo etatuurwamu bantu. Orikwesiga MUKAMA, kandi ou MUKAMA aba amatsiko ge, Ahiiriirwe;
Kuturikugamba okwesiga ondiijo muntu, abantu abamwe nibateekateeka ngu n’okwesiga abandi bantu kwenda kubaho. Ogu tigwo muringo gwonka, mwana wa Ruhanga. Okwesiga ondiijo muntu kirimu n’okwesiga obushoboorozi bwaawe nk’omuntu.
Kuturikureeba ebi turikubaasa kukora n’ebiturikubaasa kuhikaho ahabwa oku turi omunsi yaitu, okuturi omu mubiri, okushoma kwaitu nari sente zaitu nyingi, okwo nakwo nokwetamu obwesigye.
Kuturikuteekateeka ngu okugogyera nikubaasika ahabw’emicwe yaitu, okugumisiriza kwaitu, okugamba gye n’okukira n’amaani, okwo nakwo nokwetamu obwesigye.
Ruhanga tarikwenda ngu oyesigye omuntu wena, okutandika naiwe. Omu muringo nigwo gumwe ogu abantu barikuremwa, neiwe wenka noyeremererwa.
Omu maani gaawe, nobaasa kwereebya. Ti nshonga oku orikwereebera ahaiguru ota, amagara gatworekire oku ab’amaani barikugwa.
Eki tikirikumanyisa ngu tutushemereire kweyikiririzamu nokwehanika aha miti y’okwebanganisa ahabw’okutiina. Kureka okwetamu obwesigye kwoona kushemereire kutandika n’okwesiga Ruhanga. N’eki akozire omuriitwe ekitukwegamira nk’obuhame bw’okugogyera. N’amaani gye omuriitwe agu turikwesiga kusingura.
Hallelujah!
SHOMA NEEBI: Enfumu 3:5, Zaaburi 40:4
EZAABU: Okwetamu obwesigye kwoona kushemereire kutandika n’okwesiga Ruhanga. N’eki akozire omuriitwe ekitukwegamira nk’obuhame bw’okugogyera. N’amaani gye omuriitwe agu turikwesiga kusingura.
OKUSHABA: Taata omukundwa, ninkusiima ahabw’ekigambo eki. Ori obutandikiro, obugati n’obugarukiro. Ori ahagati y’okubaho kwangye kandi obwesigye bwangye bwoona buri omuriiwe.

Often times when people speak of sowing to the flesh or to the spirit, they in fact are referring to the results of sowing to the flesh or the spirit.
Faith has degrees. The degree of faith determines the results of your faith.
There are laws in the realm of God and one such law is the law of life.
There is so much that God has placed inside you. The Bible equates it to deep water and it is by understanding that you draw these things out.
Every believer must have certainty in the things of the Spirit. God has not called us to a life of doubt when it comes to what we can do in Him and what He can do through us.
The garden of Eden had no seasons of lack. There is no record in the scriptures that at some point in time, a certain tree would fail to bear fruit because that was not its season. It was green all year round because that is how God intended it.
In our theme scripture, the Lord teaches us a fundamental principle on how we relate with the world around us when it dares to question the authority that we have in God.
When Christ stood before the fig tree demanding that it yield its fruit to Him because He was hungry, its failure to do so was a direct challenge to His divine authority because the tree saw Him as a mere man.
Success in life should never breed indifference to the presence of God. Unfortunately, this is the reality in the lives of some believers. When success, influence and wealth came their way, they distanced themselves from God.
The seed of greatness seeks to serve many. The reason why some are not elevated in influence and wealth is because the vision of their lives is limited to themselves and their immediate family. They do not dream for their communities, nation or the world.
It is a puzzling reality for a man to sow much and bring in little and yet the Bible reveals that it is possible for one to give their tithes, offerings and seed and not walk in the abundance of blessings because of that person’s ways.
