THE REDEEMED

THE REDEEMED Galatians 3:10-14  Devotional:- “Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree” (V. 13) KJV . Today, we children of God do not understand the meaning of redemption. And so it does not really have any meaningful impact on our lives. This is because it is only knowledge that brings about outstanding strength and makes a man stand over his enemy. Many Christians are building muscles instead of knowledge of our God to build our spirit and soul for victory (Daniel 11:32). Though we sing redemption and even bear it as a "knowledge is power name, yet we still find ourselves in bondage. Notice that prayer without knowledge is a religious exercise. Not only in this world but in the spirit realm. Our redemption is tickly packaged for our victory, but it will take the revelation of God’s word to unfold it for our use. God’s word says, “Christ has redeemed us,” which means He has paid th...

CITIZEN OF THE KINGDOM

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.
 
“NO DUAL CITIZEN IN THE SPIRIT”

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

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.

COURAGE

COURAGE Joshua 1:1-9 Devotional:- “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go” (V. 9) NKJV      A major reason why many people are weak is because their level of courage is so low, that it cannot sustain them through to success. So they easily give up when faced with challenges. There is need for us to understand that there is no action that will not attract a reaction. So the only answer is courage.
