ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE Mark 9:14-27 Devotional:- “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes” (V.23) We need to come to the awareness of the potency of the God we serve. He can do all things. He created the heavens and the earth. He created the mountains and the sea; He parted the Red Sea; He brought water from the rock and what else can He not do? If you see any great and good thing happening in the life of anyone today, it is through Him and there is nothing He cannot do (Luke 1:37, John 3:27).

CITIZEN OF THE KINGDOM
Philippians 3: 17-21 Read: “For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ” (v. 20)
There are only two kingdoms in the realm of the spirit and dual citizenship is not permitted. The two kingdoms are; kingdom of God and of the devil, Kingdom of light and of darkness, Kingdom of righteousness and of sin, Kingdom of goodness and evil. If a man is not a citizen of the kingdom of God, he is automatically a citizen of the kingdom of the devil. That is why some people, though they go to church, yet will not be in heaven with Jesus (Matthew 7:20-23)
The word of God says, our citizenship is in heaven. This means the spirit in us is that of God, the creator of heaven and the earth. It is true we are on the earth but we are not of the earth (John 17:16). That is why as a child of God, heaven ought to be your final destination.
A major factor that differentiates the citizen of these two kingdoms is the life they live. A citizen of heaven is saved and redeemed by the blood of the lamb and he or she knows (John 1:12, Revelation 5:9-10). A citizen of heaven does not live in sin (1 John 3:8-9). He does not follow the way of the world (James 4:4, Romans 8:7). He does not desert the fellowship of children of God for human pleasure (Hebrew 10:25). He enjoys serving in the kingdom of his father (Psalm 122:1). These are the people who can overcome in this wicked world and please the Lord. Make up your mind to be a citizen of the kingdom of God and you will be ready for eternity with God. Peace
Prayer: Lord, give me a permanent stay in your kingdom.
YOUR CLAIM Scripture Reading: Isaiah 1:16-20 Devotional:- "Come now, and let us reason together," Says the Lord, "Though your sins are like scarlet, They shall be as white as snow; Though they are red like crimson, They shall be as wool” (V. 18) NKJV All God’s children have the right to the covenant provision of God (Galatians 3:13-14). The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ has purchased for us a right in God. God’s covenant is therefore for our claim as the prodigal son demanded for his portion.
NOTHING IS FREE Scripture Reading: Deuteronomy 28:1-14 Devotional:- "Now it shall come to pass, if you diligently obey the voice of the Lord your God, to observe carefully all His commandments which I command you today, that the Lord your God will set you high above all nations of the earth” (V. 1) You need to know that all the blessings of the word of God are all yours by the blood of the Covenant (Zechariah 9:11). As much as all God’s promises are available to all children of God, please know that they are all attached with condition which is the nature of covenant.
THE GRACIOUS Exodus 34:1-8 Devotional:- “…The Lord, the Lord a God merciful and gracious, long-suffering and abundance in goodness and truth” (V.6) AMPL For believers of this Generation to have the fullness of heaven as the word of God promised, they will need to have the right understanding of who our God is. It is the wrong concept of God that has limited the exploitation of Christians and made many lives wrongly. God’s word says those who know their God shall be strong (Daniel 11:32). If you will be stronger than your challenges you must know your God.
