  LEARN TO RELATE Romans 12:14-21  Devotional:- “Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position. Do not be conceited” (v. 16) NIV. We live in a world today that promotes youthful excesses more than that of the mature. We do this in the name of youthful innovations. That is why no office wants to employ relatively old individuals any more. It’s a competitive world. This is making a greater percentage of the world fail in the area of relationships. This is because it is a youthful idea to think you don’t need others. The world of this age is trying to build self-sufficient people. This is the reason many have not learnt the wisdom of relationships. For this reason, today, many people don’t have a home. Many have lost their job and joy. Many have missed many opportunities. The scripture we read today teaches us the right attitude to enjoy a relationship with others. Be careful of pride or overvaluing yourself (Romans 12:...

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”
