LOVE OF GOD

  LOVE OF GOD I John 4:7-19 Devotional:- “Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God” (V. 7) NIV You can hardly separate these two virtues; they are love and joy. They work together as twin brothers. You cannot love and not be joyful. In this season of joy, one of the things you must give room to for your joy to come is love. If you were not billing to love, you may not see joy. They have the same source; they both come from God (Psalm 16:11, 1 John 4:8) The scripture we read today said, Love comes from God and love is God. This means God cannot be in you and you can still hate. If you do, it is a sign that you are not born of God. You cannot be stealing and cheating, and you say you are a child of God. The bible teaches us how to truly demonstrate love. This is by following the example of God. He demonstrated His own love by giving us His most precious gift, Jesus Christ.

KNOWING THE TRUTH

KNOWING THE TRUTH          

John 8:31-36
Devotional:- “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" (V. 32)


   Standing in victory demands that, we have the belt of the truth around us always. It is through this that we can brace up ourselves to stand strong in victory (Ephesians 6:14). It is the knowledge of the truth that gives our heart the confidence and the courage to stand in victory. This knowledge is not just in knowing. It is in accessing the revelation of the word of God. The truth is written all over the Bible, but it takes revelation to find it. And it takes revelation to truly access the power in it (Ephesians 1: 17-18).
 
   What is the truth? It is the revelation of the fact that we have been given the power to become sons of God (John 1:12). It is the knowledge that Jesus died, that we might live. He rose again on the third day. By His death and resurrection, He has conquer the powers of the devil (John 19:30). The truth is that, all powers in heaven and on earth is now given to Jesus alone (Matthew 28:18). The truth is that, the devil and his host has lost all their powers and left with devices (Revelation 12:7-8; 2 Corinthians 2:11).
 
   The truth is that Jesus is now seated in the place of power (Ephesians 1:20-21). The truth is that we as His body has been given grace to sit with Him in power (Ephesians 1:22-23; 2:5-6). We now have the authority to cast the devil and his host out wherever we see them (Luke 10:19; Mark 16:17-18). You cannot truly have the revelation of these truths and remain in defeat. You can gain the revelation of these truths by meditation over them. The faith produced by the revelation of this truth will drive you to pray till you will prevail. Peace.
 
PRAYER: Lord, reveal the truth of my victory to me
 
“THE TRUTH HAS THE POWER TO SET FREE”
