  PROMISES Isaiah 55:1-13  Devotional:- “So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it” (V.11) NKJV One thing that is common with lovers are promises. It is part of what a true lover will want to hear. To a true lover, a promise is like a cheque capable of turning into cash. So when people who love us promise us, we cherish the promises. And when we remember them, it gladdens our heart. We even sometime feel happy enough to share it with other friends. One other terrible thing that is common with people is failing to fulfill promises. That is why it will be unwise to marry someone based on mare promises. These failure in promises of people, in some cases, are due to the inadequacy of human strength, or unforeseen circumstances that can overtake the promises, so the promised often feel deceived.

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”
