Hello my friends hope you are all doing great
Happy Sunday to you all Sunday is my best day in the week because it’s the day that I worship and praise God out loud I also praise God on other days of the week but Sunday is a very special day from other days
I woke up early in the morning I had my shower and then prepared myself breakfast and then dressed up well to go prayers
I pray from the phaneroo devotion ministry and it’s a very good ministry because I have learnt a lot from them
We always have devotion prayers every Tuesday where we move from door to door preaching the word of God
I would like to share with you today’s scriptures
NKJV Bible. Genesis 16:4-9
[4]So he went in to Hagar, and she conceived. And when she saw that she had conceived, her mistress became despised in her eyes.
[5]Then Sarai said to Abram, “My wrong be upon you! I gave my maid into your embrace; and when she saw that she had conceived, I became despised in her eyes. The Lord judge between you and me.”
[6]So Abram said to Sarai, “Indeed your maid is in your hand; do to her as you please.” And when Sarai dealt harshly with her, she fled from her presence.
[7]Now the Angel of the Lord found her by a spring of water in the wilderness, by the spring on the way to Shur.
[8]And He said, “Hagar, Sarai’s maid, where have you come from, and where are you going?” She said, “I am fleeing from the presence of my mistress Sarai.”
[9]The Angel of the Lord said to her, “Return to your mistress, and submit yourself under her hand.”

Apostle Grace Lubega
2 Timothy 3:14 (KJV); But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;
WISDOM FOR GREATNESS
A wise child never forgets the womb from which he came forth.
As a child rises in graces that are deeper and greater than those of his teacher or father, that child must not forget his master. This is the wisdom that Paul teaches in our theme scripture when he says that you should know from whom you have learned. Part of this knowledge is to never forget who taught you.
I have seen many fall short of this principle even as God elevates them and grants them deeper access to Him. They shun where they came from and despise the hands that held them while they ‘breastfed’, ‘weaned’ and eventually ‘ate meat.’
This folly is reflected in the story of Hagar. Despite the blame that some may place at Sarah’s door, it was by Sarah's permission that Hagar mothered a kingly seed.
The Bible says in Genesis 16:4 that when Hagar saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes. Because she was now pregnant, Sarah became less important in Hagar’s eyes. When Hagar eventually fled Sarah’s retaliation against her spurt of insubordination, God did not coddle her about her misfortune.
In Genesis 16:9, the instruction to Hagar is, " Return to thy mistress, and submit thyself under her hands."
The lesson to us is clear: you can never go far by despising where you came from. New births should never mock old wombs.
FURTHER STUDY: Genesis 16:4-9, Hebrews 13:17
GOLDEN NUGGET: You can never go far by despising where you came from. New births should never mock old wombs.
PRAYER: Father, I thank You for this wisdom. I walk in humility towards those that came before me. Even as You take me higher, my Lord, You humble me and continuously cause me to give honour to whom honour is due. In Jesus' name, Amen.
