STRENGTH IN GOD

STRENGTH IN GOD 2 Corinthians 10:1-6 Devotional:- “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds” (V4) NKJV      Many Christians today have so much confusion about their strength in God. It has made the church think that a few limited people can demonstrate the strength of God. So, multitudes are weak in strength. Though they come to church, yet in times of challenges, you see them rushing to another Christian whom they know to be stronger in God. Neglecting the fact that a New Testament believer is a potential priest and king for Christ (Revelation 5:10; Mark 16:17).

OPERATING AUTHORITY

OPERATING AUTHORITY           

Luke 10:13-20
Devotional:- “Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you” (V. 19)


 

   When a man is standing in victory, he will equally stand in authority. This is because victory is a product of gaining more power to conquer an opponent.  Such people seems to have a sense of been in charge wherever they are. They operate with a victorious mentality and not defeated mentality.
 
   Jesus said “He has given us the authority to overcome all the powers of the enemy. To be given authority is like someone having the control over a thing and delegate the control to you. The issue is that, we did not fight and conquer the devil. It was Jesus that did that and now delegates the control over the forces of wickedness to us. That is why you need a mind shift to operate in authority delegated to you by the Lord Jesus.
 
   Every authority has power under their control (Matthew 8:8-9). The authority is the controller and the power is the one that execute the words given by the authority. This means, as you operate in authority, God make His forces available to carry out your words (Psalms 103:20). Understanding this makes you stand in victory. Elisha knew that there are forces with them, but his servant became worried because he did not know (2 kings 6:15-17). Take your place in authority. Peace.
 
PRAYER: Lord, give me the light of my authority in you.
 
“UNDERSTANDING YOUR AUTHORITY MAKES YOU LIVE IN VICTORY”

MASTER’S MINAS

MASTER’S MINAS Luke 19:11-27 Devotional:- “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come” (V. 13) NKJV      The word of God instructs us to do business. The Bible did not advise us to do business but it commanded us. That is why it would be wrong for you and me to be without a business. That makes idleness a crime against self (1 Thessalonians 4:11). Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.

FRUITFULNESS

FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV      One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans?  If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
