A FRIEND

  A FRIEND John 15:9-17  Devotional:- “...but l have called you friends…” (V. 15) In this generation, it is not a common thing to find true friends. This is someone who goes all out to see to your well-being. Someone who wants to identify with you in all situations. Someone who is not feeling fine until he sees you, someone who daily remembers to pray and intercede for you. It can be a terrible thing sometimes when you desire to share your mind with someone, and no one is willing to listen to you, or someone who could offer a little help. Sometimes we could be in need of a little encouragement, but no one to really do it. The people who are supposed to encourage us are the ones who misunderstand us and condemn us. We need to come to the understanding that God is our friend. He is not just your Lord and God. He always wants to listen to you. He is not happy when you are not (Hebrews 4:15). He is always around you. He wants to identify with you in all situations. He is not out t...

BEHOLD HIS GLORY

Behold His Glory: John 1:14-18Scripture Reading: John 1:6-14
Devotional: “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth” (V. 14)
One of the ways to have a quality time in the presence of God is to learn to behold the glory of the Lord (Exodus 33:17-19). Whenever you are personally in His presence, His glory will always overwhelm you. This is very important because the devil don’t want you to have a time in the presence of God. Therefore, the way he can discourage you is by making you to see fearful and negative things. The devil knows that the moment you start to enjoy the presence of the Lord, you are free from him. That is why you must bring the scripture alive through imagination.
The word of God described Jesus as glorious and Apostle John described Him the glory they saw (Luke 9:29). That the exact thing King David was talking about when he said “he set the Lord before him” (Psalms 16:8). The disciples saw Him on the transfiguration hill and they saw His glory (Luke 9:29).
Friend, you need this scripture to help you when you want to be alone with Him. Beholding His glory makes all your mountains to disappear even when you have not prayed (Psalms 97:5; Micah 1:4). That is why the disciples said, they cannot but talk about it (1 John 1:1). They have seen His glory. From today, you will start to see the glory of the Lord. All your mountains will melt away in Jesus name. Peace.
PRAYER: Lord, open my eye to always see you glory around me
“WHAT YOU’VE SEEN IS WHAT YOU HAVE RECEIVED”
