  DON’T HATE Matthew 5:43-48  Devotional:- “But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you,” (V. 44) NKJV The subject of love is not always easy to practise between you, and those who have shown themselves as committed enemies. Those who will openly stand against you. Those who just hate you for no reason. Those who don’t pray that anything good should happen to you. Yet the Bible gave us a commandment in the midst of it all to love and never to hate them. What a great task! But until a Christian grows to this level, he cannot actually be called mature. The way to handle it is that we should bless those who curse us. Always do good to those who hate you. If they are moved by the spirit in them to do evil to you, be moved by the Spirit in you to love them. We cannot truly say we love till we can prayerfully demonstrate the character of love.

SPIRIT CONNECTION


Scripture Reading: Job 32:1-9

Devotional Verse –
“But there is a spirit within people, the breath of the Almighty within them, that makes them intelligent” (V. 8)

Man in his nature can only see the physical things but perceive spiritual things. Most people have little or no understanding of the affairs of the spirit. Man needs to realize that he is not just spiritual, but he is a spirit made in likeness of God who is a Spirit (Genesis 1:20-27). It is important we know that man receives from God through his spirit (John 3:27).


The word of God says there is a spirit in every man but it is the breath of God that gives them understanding. This talks about the impact of the Spirit in the life of every man. It is by our spirit that we can connect with God because He is a Spirit (John 4:24). We can therefore receive the ability to prosper by His breath on us. His breath on us comes to inspire our mind to action. Our understanding becomes receptive to information as the spirit breathe on us (Ephesians 1:17-18). This is how God empower us to prosper.

We will be able to connect with God for this ability to prosper as we fellowship in His presence regularly. This should be mostly personal time with God alone or with the church (Psalms 84:7). That is why each of us as children of God should not joke with the issue of fellowship with God. It is for us to contact revelation for the strength of the spirit. This in turn makes us intelligence to prosper. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, help me to enjoy the blessing of your Spirit
“YOU ARE HELPLESS WITHOUT THE HELP OF THE SPIRIT”
