THE CHILD JESUS

  THE CHILD JESUS Luke 2:41-52 Devotional:- “And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them” (V. 51) KJV. Contrary to the right principle of life, the young people of this generation have started embarking on what may not profit their future. God’s Word say honour your father and your mother that it might be well with you and that your days may be long (Ephesians 6: 1-3). But very many young people of this generation have began to take to a life of dishonoring their parents and other elderly ones in the society. They think talking abusively and beating elderly ones is a way to shine in life. But little do they know that they put curses upon themselves. This is a fulfillment of the scripture (1 Timothy 3:1-2). Friend, one of the lessons of this season is that we should honour our parents and elders among us. Jesus was in Jerusalem with His parents.

KNOWING GOD

KNOWING GOD            

Daniel 11:29-39
Devotional :- “ Those who do wickedly against the covenant he shall corrupt with flattery; but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits” (V. 32)


   One of the major deceptions of the devil is to make man feel that all is limited to the physical (Hebrews 11:3). Therefore, man becomes limited to what he can see. That will simply make lives hopeless. But all of that, are lies of the devil (John 8:44). When a man knows God, he will start to operate at the realm far higher than the natural.
 
   The Bible says “some will be corrupted with flattery”. This is because they will play into the deception of the devil to disobey the covenant of God. They will argue the scripture. They will cancel the covenant of God. They will become encouragement of disobedience. So, their lives will become corrupt with time. That is, their mind will be malfunctioning (Romans 1:28)
 
   To know God is to know His name. It is to know His word and His ways. The revelation of the name and the ways of God makes you confidence to walk in power. Knowing God demands searching for Him through His word and not through nature alone (Proverbs 25:2). It takes seeking, to find out who God is (Matthew 7:7). When people know who God is, then they find strength of faith in His covenant (1 Corinthians 2:9-16). This will make them to be rude to the devil and resist him because they know his weaknesses. Peace. 
 
PRAYER: Lord, reveal to me the power in your name and your ways.
