DISTANCING FROM THE SCRIPTURES

DISTANCING FROM THE SCRIPTURES Deuteronomy 8:1-11 Devotional:- “To teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD” (v.3) NIV      The word of God is the bank of our strength in God. The word of God is the strength of God (John 1:1-3; Hebrews 4:12). Through the word, God had done all He had done. God’s word says, without Him, nothing else was created (John 1:3). When a man, therefore, distances himself from the Word of God, such is distancing himself from his source, He will lack the strength of God.

WALKING WITH GOD

WALKING WITH GOD            

Genesis 17:1-12
Devotional - “When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him, "I am Almighty God; walk before Me and be blameless”” (V. 1)


    To stand in victory is not just by head knowledge or by title. It is a status of the Spirit. It takes faith to stand in victory (1 John 5:4). And faith is a product of the revelation of the word of God (Romans 10:17). No one can consistently be strong in faith except by constant relationship with God. It is not just by reading but by meditation and continuous relationship with God. 
 
   Abraham and his wife were trying to help the word of God to come to pass: Therefore, they device their own way to have a child. But God called him to order by telling him that His promises will surely come to pass. These will only demand quality relationship with God.
 
   To have quality relationship with God: demands overcoming the power of the flesh and be willing to hang around God in worships and in prayers daily. It demands acknowledging and receiving instructions for direction in all things. It demands obedience to His directions. A man can only enjoy this by taking time out to regularly fellowship with God personally and with the church (Psalm 84:7). This is a major price to be paid to become completely untouchable for the enemy. By walking with Him, His power comes to be at work with us for our victory. Peace.
 
PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace to always walk with you
 
“ONLY THOSE WHO ARE WALKING WITH GOD CAN GAIN HIS STRENGTH”

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.
