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).

YOU ARE THE BRANCHES
John 15:1-8 Devotional Verse:- "I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing" (Vs. 5)
As citizens of the kingdom of God, we are so special in the hand of our God that we are given special roles to play. The role of glory that Christ has given us is not common in the generations of men. We are given this special place because Christ loves us and made Himself a sacrifice for our redemption (Revelation 5:9).
Jesus says, He is the vine and we are the branches. This is a rare position only for the citizens of the kingdom of God. Jesus went ahead to say that His father is the vine dresser while He is the vine. Just picture it in your mind that God is a gardener, Jesus is the plant while you and I are the branches. Do you know that it is the joy of the gardener to see the flower and the fruits of the plants? What a great honour it is that we are to carry the beauty and the fruits of the Spirit of God!
We must therefore do everything to bear fruits in response to such love from Jesus. These fruits are the fruits of repentance unto righteousness which are the fruits of turning to obey God (Matthew 3:8). They are the fruits of the Spirit of God (Galatians 5:22) and the fruits of soul winning. Make up your mind to do the will of the father in soul winning and giving. Work on yourself in the word of God to bear the fruits of the Spirit so that you will not be cast out (John 15:2). It's a new day!
Prayer: Lord, help me to be focused and fruitful to keep my place in you.
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.
