Mobile Daily Devotional with Pst. Oluboye Emmanuel Week 16, Day 2: Monday, 17th April, 2023. Topic: CHRIST TEACHING 2: Keeping Secret

2. For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known.

3. Therefore whatsoever ye have spoken in darkness shall be heard in the light; and that which ye have spoken in the ear in closets shall be proclaimed upon the housetops.

The second lesson of Jesus Christ is about Keeping Secrets, hiding the truth about a matter, Jesus said, all will be expose. Corrupt act in place of work, going into rituals or being part of an occultic group, having extramarital affairs, it will be expose sooner or later, why? Because nothing is hidden before God. Keeping secrets brings fear, and makes one live a life of suspicious. Keeping Secret makes you live in lies all the days of your life. The more secret you keep the more restless you are.

Ecclesiastes 12:14.

“For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.

Let me share a little story with us.

There was a gateman, working in a poultry. One faithful day, he stole one of the bird and was caught by the supervisor. Since then, the supervisor gets half of the gate man’s

salary just to cover up the secret. Many months later, the gate man went to the manager to confess his act of stealing and the manager forgive him. Then came the supervisor for half of the salary as usual but the gateman was already free from keeping Secret, and from then on, he became a free man from past secrets while the supervisor was forced to return all the gate man’s half salary.

If you don’t confess the secret, it will take you captive for life and still expose you. Better to reveal the secret, be punished and be a free man forever. Watch your life, what secret do you need to expose and be free from?

Good day and God bless you.

Happy Birthday to all celebrants and Happy Wedding Anniversary to those celebrating today. May you experience God’s fruitfulness in Jesus Mighty name, Amen.
