  NOT AUTOMATIC Philippians.1:1-11 Devotional:- “And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns” (V.6 NLT) Knowing fully well that spiritual growth is one of your purpose of been on the earth, then you also need to know that developing Christ-like character takes years, it is not automatic. We open to God bit by bit. Discipleship is the process of conforming to Christ (Romans 12:2, Ephesians 4:13). The truth is that the journey to Christ-likeness is a life time journey. Growth involves believing, belonging (through fellowship) and becoming (through discipleship). Every day God want you to become a little more like Him (Colossians 3:10) Today we are interested in speed but God is interested in strength and stability than swiftness (2 Corinthians 3:18). The reason it takes time to grow is because we are slow learner. We often have to relearn a lesson forth or fifty times to reall...

KINGS OF THE KINGDOM

KINGS OF THE KINGDOM   

Revelation 5: 8-14
Read: “And have made us kings and priests to our God; And we shall reign on the earth” (V. 10)



    In the kingdom of God, Jesus is the King of kings, but there are kings (Revelation 19:16). These are the ones who stand for Him in places on the earth. These are His ambassadors (2 Corinthians 5:20). These are His representatives on the earth. These are the ones who rules over the forces of darkness by faith in Christ Jesus (Mark 16:17-18). These are the ones who are taking territory for Jesus. This office is given to all true believers who is taking their place in God. They know their position in God (Daniel 11:32). They know the authority they have in Christ over devil, sickness, sorrow and all the works of the enemy.
 
   Friend, it is either you are ruling in Christ or you are been ruled by the enemy. The truth is that Jesus has given authority to all believers to be able to take dominion over the forces of life (Luke 10:19). If you are been dominated in any way, it is because you are not dominating. If you are a child of God, understand that you are to take charge for God wherever you are.
 
   Make up your mind to join the rulers in Christ Jesus. This is by seeking to know Him (Daniel 11:32). Stop been a nominal Christian who just attend the church on Sundays. That way, the enemy will cunningly be ruling in your affairs. Draw near to Christ and He will draw near to you. (James 4:8). Willingly give yourself to learning His word to know Him (Philippians 3:10). Then you shall be a sign, a wonder and unstoppable in your world. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, strengthen me to draw near to you.
 
“YOU ARE EITHER DOMINATING OR BEEN DOMINATED”
