TRAIN FOR YOUR FUTURE 
(Don’t Neglect Your Responsibilities)

📖TO THE BIBLE : 1 Samuel 17:34-37
“...David said to Saul, “Your servant used to keep his father’s sheep, and when a lion or a bear came and took a lamb out of the flock, I went out after it and struck it, and delivered the lamb from its mouth...Your servant has killed both lion and bear; and this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, seeing he has defied the armies of the living God....”

LET'S TALK ⏩
The opening scripture is the account of David’s first encounter with Saul, the king of Israel. I want you to note that at this time he wasn’t qualified to be in the army. Yet, the confidence he exuded as he spoke was nothing short of that of an experienced warrior. As you study the life of David, you’ll understand the reason he was so bold and confident of killing Goliath of Gath was that he had been trained for it. Nobody knew that while he was tending his father’s sheep, God was also training him for the future. 

The responsibilities given to him at home seemed menial and mundane compared to those of his “warrior” brothers. Nonetheless, he performed every task faithfully and with utmost diligence. These were the qualities that brought him before Saul. Though David was a fresh-faced teenager, seemingly unfit and untrained for combat, he killed Goliath, brought Israel victory over the Philistines and went on to become God’s great general for Israel! God had trained him for his future. 

Don’t despise any responsibility you’re given today, irrespective of how lowly it may seem. Always remember that God is training you for the great future ahead of you through His Word and by His Spirit.

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6TH 2025 LET THE GOSPEL BE YOUR PASSION For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth... (Romans 1:16). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the power of God to save, heal, deliver and transform lives. That’s why it must be a message you understand, live by, and burn with passion to share with others especially as the coming of the Lord draws nearer than we’ve ever known. Paul the Apostle declared that he was not ashamed of the Gospel. That statement came from a place of deep conviction and unwavering commitment. For him, preaching the Gospel wasn’t optional but life itself. He lived for the Gospel and was willing to die for its advancement. Read His inspiring and heart-stirring words in Acts 20:22-27, “And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there: Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying ...

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

  SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 16TH 2025 THE KINGDOM, THE FIELD, AND THE SEED Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field (Matthew 13:24). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. The Lord Jesus, in His remarkable teachings about the Kingdom, used parables to unveil profound truths. One of such examples is the parable of the wheat and tares in Matthew 13. He said, "...the kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field" (Matthew 13:24). That "man" is the Lord Himself, while the "good seed" represents the children of the Kingdom. The "field," as He later explained, is the world. This is extraordinary. The Lord sowed good seed, not in someone else's field, but in His own field. That tells you the world is His field and part of His Kingdom. It belongs to Him. No matter what we see in the world today, no matter how polluted it appears, the field still b...
