STAND IN

  STAND IN 1 Timothy 2:1-7  Devotional:- “Here are my directions: Pray much for others; plead for God's mercy upon them; give thanks for all he is going to do for them.” (v.1) TLB . When God lifts a man, such a man must have enjoyed the intercessory ministry of others. It is part of the principle of God for us to receive (Matthew 7:7). This is because He does not want to break into our free will and damage our choice. He does not want to break into our decision. That is why we say it sometimes when an event happens, "Did God not see it?” Until He is asked to do something, He finds it difficult to do it. Rather, if He wants to promote a man and the man is not aware, He will touch other people to pray for him.  That is why you and I must also be willing to pray and stand in the gap for others. Paul was instructing Timothy and all of us as members of the body of Christ to pray for others. There are so many people around you who need one thing or another. Even though you ca...

A SWORD

A SWORD               

 
Ephesians 6:13-20
Devotional: -“And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God” (V. 17) NKJV


   
   Everyone who engages in battle knows the importance of the weapon called sword. This is what stand in place of AK47 today. Sword is both defensive, but mostly offensive weapon. By it, you will protect yourself and destroy the enemy. The enemy seeing it with you, is enough to scare them because it's a deadly weapon in the hand of warrior.
 
   The Bible calls the word of God the sword of the spirit and that is what it is. When the word of God is loaded in your heart through meditation, then it proceed out of your mouth (Matthew 12:34). Remember the word is what commands the forces of God to action (Job 22:28; Psalms 103:20). So, when a child of God is speaking or praying with the word, it becomes power through his mouth. People of darkness call this incantation.
 
  Friend, your mouth will lack authority without the word of God. This sword of the spirit works either in your dream or in real life. The devil dare not wait for it. That is why you must let it dwell in your heart richly (Colossians 3:16). Wherever you are confronted with any challenge in life, the word will be strong enough to give you victory. God bless you. Peace!
 
PRAYER:  Lord, let your words ever be in my mouth
 
“THE STRONGER YOUR SWORD, THE BIGGER YOUR VICTORY”

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

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

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.
