WHEN GOD SEEMS DISTANT

  WHEN GOD SEEMS DISTANT  Isaiah 8:11-18 Devotional:- “And I will wait on the LORD, Who hides His face from the house of Jacob; And I will hope in Him” (V.17) God is real no matter how anyone feels. Since we are made to worship God whether it is going well or not we must always give all the glory to Him. It is easy to worship God when things are going well, but situations are not always pleasant. That is why we must learn to always give God glory in all situations. The richest of worship is during pains or trails. We must learn to trust God, surrender and love God when we don’t feel his presence. In our scripture today the man of God said ‘’I will trust and place my trust in Him even when God is hidden‘’. True friendship is often tested by distance and inability to communicate. It takes close time and distant time to grow relationship. That is why to mature your relationship with God He will test you with period of seeming separation, feeling abandoned or forgotten. In such ti...

KINGDOM OF POWER           

Read: I Corinthians 4:17-21
For the kingdom of God is not in word but in power. (Vs. 20)


    Every believer must know that the kingdom of God is characterized with power. It is important that you get used to power as a child of God. As a child of God, you must not be a victim of the devil who is the enemy of God and man. Being involved in a religion makes a man a victim. This is because religion is always void of the manifestation of power (Colossians 2:23).
 
    Power is the demonstration as well as the manifestation of the working strength of God. This working strength of God is the mysteries of God, which when demonstrated in understanding are able to put the devil under a check. The devil cannot contend with the power of God because it is a done deal. It is sealed and already perfected by Jesus on the cross.
 
    That is why as a child of God you must not be ignorant of your right over the power of the enemy. If the Spirit of God is in you, then you should get angry and pray for people whenever you see them sick or living under any form of affliction. The reason is that sickness and affliction are the manifestations of the devil. Get used to laying hands on the sick and they will be healed (Mark. 16:17-18). Get used to issuing commands in the name of Jesus and the devil will flee from you (James 4:7; I Peter 5:9). Don’t ever be in doubt or fear. (2 Tim 1:7; James 1:6-7). As you do this, you will see the power of God being demonstrated through your life on daily basis. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, baptize me with your power.
 
“IT IS EITHER THE DEVIL FLEES FROM YOU OR YOU FLEE FROM HIM. CHOOSE WHAT YOU WANT”

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.
