FRIENDSHIP WITH GOD

  FRIENDSHIP WITH GOD Romans 5:1-11 Devotional:- “For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life” (V. 10)  As a kingdom citizen please known that God wants to be your best friend. This is because intimacy is part of your act of worship. It is true that God is our maker and redeemer yet he wants to be our friend. Remember we were made to live continually in God’s presence but it is sin that makes us loose that (Gen 3, Roman 3:23)  In our scripture for today we saw that it was grace through the sacrifice of the cross that gives us access to friendship with God (2 Corinthians 5:18). Our friendship with God does not mean casual acquaintance but close and trusted relationships just like the best man in a wedding. In the palace the servant must keep their distance from the king but there are some people in circle of intimate and trusted friends with the king. They enjoy free an...

CHURCH FELLOWSHIP

CHURCH FELLOWSHIP          

Psalms 84:1-12
Devotional:- “They go from strength to strength; Each one appears before God in Zion” (V. 7)


 

   The fellowship of the church is a place of strength for our victory. Only a strong man can win in the battle of life (Proverbs 24:10). Children of the living God are strong because God is strong. That is why you must not let the devil reduce the fellowship of the church to mere place of meeting with friends. It is what you take a thing to be that it will be to you. 
 
   The word of God referred to gathering of children of God as Mount Zion. It is called the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, where there is innumerable company of angels. The general assembly and the church of the first born that are registered in heaven. God is always there, Jesus is always there. In the church, the blood speak better things (Hebrews 12:22-24).
 
   That is why; those who imbibe the habit of being in God’s house will go from strength to strength. You cannot be in fellowship with God and be weak. You must be careful not to allow what you are going through to determine who you will be. The project that fails in your hand does not make you a failure. That you are going through a challenge does not mean your church is a disappointment. If Jesus can go through challenges, then, all of us will (Luke 23:31; John 16:33). Challenges are there to make us strong (Hebrews 12:11, Hebrews 5:8). So, it should not be the reason to turn you away from the church Jesus. It is as you hold on, that you become victorious. Be wise. Peace.
 
PRAYER: Lord, help me to connect to your house for my victory.
