HELP

Image
  HELP Isaiah 41:10-20  Devotional:- “Fear not, you worm Jacob, You men of Israel! I will help you," says the LORD And your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel” (V. 14) NKJV Just because God loves us, He has promised to help us. Every man, at one time or another, will need help. This is because the strength of man is inadequate in most cases. Most of the time, our strength proves inadequate, even when we are close to success. You will observe that with all your determination, thinking you can do something, sometimes, you will only get to the middle, to discover that your strength has been exhausted. At such a point, people who don’t have God turn to the devil for help. The devil will always take advantage of such a time, pretending to have a solution but only trying to trap their lives. Friend, don’t turn to the evil way for help. He that creates you and loves you says, “He will help you.” Stop looking unto men (Psalms 121:1-2). Look unto Jesus today. Call upon Him now, and He wi...

PEACE

  PEACE John 14:19-31  Devotional:- “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid” (27) NKJV Peace has been the desire of every nation and tribe. Even the United Nations (UN) is set up for peacemaking in the world. But the more the world seeks peace, the less they have it. This is because man cannot give peace. Until the world embraces the Prince of Peace, her peace may not be established. Though we are in the world, we are not of the world. The love of Christ for us has given us peace. He is the Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6). The world does not know this because they are not of his own. Peace is a product of the love of God for you. If you don’t have it, receive it from today. This peace begins in our heart, and it goes on to affect everything around us. Since the world does not have it within, they cannot manifest it. Jesus said, He has given you His peace. So, you have it fro...

NO OFF DUTY

  NO OFF DUTY Psalms 121:1-8 Devotional:- “He will not allow your foot to be moved; He who keeps you will not slumber.” (V. 3) NKJV We have heard of men who are strongly secured physically yet destroyed by the enemy. Most people in the world cannot even afford the cost of security gadgets. As a matter of fact, the world is getting increasingly insecure daily. Let me quickly remind you that God has become your security (Colossians 3:3). This is because of His love for you. The reason why strong men fall victim to the enemy is that their security is not adequate, and that is because it is of man. Since man makes it, men can fault it. Men can be weary and weak. There is no way they will be there always. Do you know that you are secure in Christ Jesus? He is never off duty. He watches over you always because He loves you. No matter how insecure the world grows. They canmot meet up to His security standard. He does not slumber nor sleep. The sun cannot strike you day or the moon by nigh...

DON'T BLAME GOD

Image
  DON’T BLAME GOD James 1:12-20 Devotional:- “And remember, when you are being tempted, do not say, "God is tempting me." God is never tempted to do wrong, and he never tempts anyone else” (V. 13) NLT Today, there is so much confusion the enemy places in the heart of men to make them feel that God hate them. So, when people are under the pressure of the flesh to sin, they say “God is tempting me”. When people are weak, they are going to face temptation through their flesh. It wil be wrong to say God is tempting you with sickness or troubles. Yes, God knows about it but He only allows it when we have been warned repeatedly and we refuse to change. He disciplines, but it is necessary for us to know that God is not the author of evil, that is the work of the devil (Hebrews 12:6; Matthew 4:24).  There is a difference between a test and temptation. To test means to examine or observe if someone is capable of doing something. To tempt means to entice or lure someone into doing some...

NEVER BREAK YOU

  NEVER BREAK YOU 1 Corinthians 10:6-13  Devotional:- “No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it“ (V. 13) NKJV When some people go through challenges today, it looks as if the end has come. And sometimes we think, it is going to be forever. But God’s love is revealed to us even in our challenges. His help and strength are always available to us, even in our most difficult situations. He has promised never to leave us alone. He is right there with you in your challenges. And that is why you cannot be swallowed nor destroyed, even by any situation you may be facing right now. The scripture we read today says, God will not watch us fall into any pit of trouble above what we can come out from. That means, He is looking at you in that situation, He knows your shame. But He also knows that...

HE NEVER CONDEMNS

  HE NEVER CONDEMNS John 8:1-11  Devotional:- “She said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said to her, "Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more”” (V. 11) NKJV One of the tricks the devil often used against man is to make us feel condemned. To be condemned is a feeling of self-judgment. It is the act of judging oneself to death when God has not. A man with condemnation cannot be bold or courageous. He cannot exercise faith. He cannot take a risk and so cannot find it easy to succeed. The truth is that God does not condemn man. So it is like man to feel condemned, and it is the handiwork of the devil. It was said about Jesus, “for God did not send His son into the world to condemn the world, but that through Him might be saved” (John 3:17).  God has appointed Jesus to judge the earth. But that is not now. Condemnation is a feeling that one has been written off and is not worthy of living anymore. The only people who will face God’s final condemnation are those who refused to...

NEVER FORGOTTEN

Image
  NEVER FORGOTTEN Isaiah 49:13-23  Devotional:- “Can a woman forget her nursing child, And not have compassion on the son of her womb? Surely they may forget, Yet I will not forget you” (V. 15) NKJV Delays in some situations of life could sometimes make one feel forgotten. This could make anyone feel neglected and hated. Have you ever been in a situation where everyone was served but you alone were forgotten? This could bring a big embarrassment. But God cannot make such a mistake. Before He began serving, you were the one in His mind. His mind is filled with the memory of your love.  The scripture we read today says, even if a mother forgets to nurse her child, which I think is impossible, God said He cannot forget you. If a woman, for example, is far away from a child which has not been weaned, two of them will not find it easy. The baby will soon be crying, and the mother’s breast will soon be heavy and painful. Friend, God can never forget you. That is why He said He ...
