RIGHTEOUSNESS

  RIGHTEOUSNESS 2 Corinthians 5:14-21  Devotional:- “For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.” (V. 21) NKJV It is because of the love of God that we are called the people of God today (Romans 9:25). This has created an eternal problem for the devil. In the Old Testament, many people tried to please God, but they were not able, and this brought destruction upon them. The Bible mentioned that Jesus, when He died, went to hell to free the saints (1 Peter 3:19). These are men who had lived all their lives to obey the law, yet were not able to reach the mark of righteousness. Today, the righteousness they were not able to attain, we have effortlessly attained. This is not because we are better than they were, but because we are children born in due season. This is the righteousness referred to in the scripture as imputed righteousness (Romans 4:6-8). This righteousness is given to us through faith in the Lord Jesus Chri...

IMAGINE HIS PRESENCE

CourageToLead.comScripture Reading: Psalms 16:1-11
Devotional: “I have set the Lord always before me; Because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved” (V. 8)
It is important for you to know that your imagination is an instrument of the Spirit. Imagination is simply image formation. It is a mental image formation, but when you are connected with the Holy Spirit, you can see deep things through it. With imagination, you can be in your room from your office. This same way, you can be in the presence of God by imagination.
King David said, “I have set the Lord always before me because He is at my right hand, I shall not be moved”. This is by His ability to imagine that the Lord is with him. To be in the presence of God, learn to imagine the presence of God with you. If your imagination will not be taken over often by the devil, then learn to imagine the word of God. Turn scripture to picture. Your imagination of the word of God helps you perceive the things of the spirit. What you see in your imagination will be real to you.
He said, He will be with you, so, imagine Him there. How? The word of God describes the throne of God with light and lightening (Revelation 4:1-6). God is called the father of light (James 1:17). No shadow on His throne. Moses’ description told us the throne of God was like consuming fire (Exodus 24:16-18). Imagine Him as the Bible says He is. See yourself in His presence before His throne. Then, your spirit can deeply begin to commune with God. Peace.
PRAYER: Lord, let me know your presence always.

MASTER’S MINAS

MASTER’S MINAS Luke 19:11-27 Devotional:- “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come” (V. 13) NKJV      The word of God instructs us to do business. The Bible did not advise us to do business but it commanded us. That is why it would be wrong for you and me to be without a business. That makes idleness a crime against self (1 Thessalonians 4:11). Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.

COURAGE Joshua 1:1-9 Devotional:- “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go” (V. 9) NKJV      A major reason why many people are weak is because their level of courage is so low, that it cannot sustain them through to success. So they easily give up when faced with challenges. There is need for us to understand that there is no action that will not attract a reaction. So the only answer is courage.
