VALUE YOURSELF

VALUE YOURSELF 1 Peter 2:1-10  Devotional:- “But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;” (V. 9) NKJV If anyone is going to enjoy the love of God, he must see himself as lovely. One of the ways for someone to see themselves as lovely is by valuing themselves. You need to know that of all the creatures of God, not only on earth but also in heaven, you are the most special. According to the word of God, there is no other creature that is as valuable as you are. You are the reason for the labour of the devil (1 Peter 5:8). You are the envy of the demons. You are the envy of the angels. A great percentage of the angels are serving the heirs of salvation (Hebrews 1:14). The scripture we read today calls you a chosen one. That is, among the multitude, God selected you out for Himself. You are a royal priesthood, that is, you are a kingly priest...

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”
