STAND IN

  STAND IN 1 Timothy 2:1-7  Devotional:- “Here are my directions: Pray much for others; plead for God's mercy upon them; give thanks for all he is going to do for them.” (v.1) TLB . When God lifts a man, such a man must have enjoyed the intercessory ministry of others. It is part of the principle of God for us to receive (Matthew 7:7). This is because He does not want to break into our free will and damage our choice. He does not want to break into our decision. That is why we say it sometimes when an event happens, "Did God not see it?” Until He is asked to do something, He finds it difficult to do it. Rather, if He wants to promote a man and the man is not aware, He will touch other people to pray for him.  That is why you and I must also be willing to pray and stand in the gap for others. Paul was instructing Timothy and all of us as members of the body of Christ to pray for others. There are so many people around you who need one thing or another. Even though you ca...

THE RULING KINGDOM

THE RULING KINGDOM            

Read: Daniel 4:24-37
They shall drive you from men, your dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field, and they shall make you eat grass like oxen. They shall wet you with the dew of heaven, and seven times shall pass over you, till you know that the Most High rules in the kingdom of men, and gives it to whomever He chooses. (Vs. 25)
    Another major nature of the kingdom of God is sovereignty. It is a ruling kingdom. In other words, the kingdom of God enthrones and takes over thrones. Wherever the kingdom is established, kings and rulers will be raised over every other throne (Revelation 11:15). This is one of the things the devil does not want you to know (John 8:32).

    The Bible says king Nebuchadnezzar was boasting that he built his kingdom himself and never gave glory to God (Isaiah 48:11). God had to teach him a great lesson, until he realizes that God rules in the affairs of men. If there is any power boasting or proving to be something against your life, such power will soon come under your feet (Romans 16:20).
 
    The word of God says above only you shall be (Deuteronomy 28:13). The word of God says you shall be the head and not the tail. God’s word says you are redeemed to rule (Revelation 5:9-10). Friend, the spirit of this kingdom is a ruling Spirit. You are from above and you are above all (John 3:31). So, very soon, you will take over in your office, business, family, community and nation. Just keep obeying the Lord. You belong to a ruling kingdom.
 
Prayer: Lord, anoint me to rule over every forces around me.
 
“HE THAT IS FROM ABOVE WILL ALWAYS BE ABOVE”

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.
