THE PAST

  THE PAST Isaiah 43:8-21 Devotional:- “Do not remember the former things, Nor consider the things of old.” (v.18) NKJV God, who gives us a memory, want us to use our past experiences to help us make quality decisions in the future, but the past is always the enemy of the future for many. If you don’t know how to manage your memory system of the past, it is capable of standing against your success in the future. As emotional beings, we are sometimes faced with the challenges of memories of our past experiences, our errors and failures. You will observe that at every point of decision-making to progress, the enemy will bring back to your memory the past experiences of your failure. This is just to bring fear to your heart and make you doubt the possibility of your success, so you could lose your joy. The scripture we read today instructs us to let go of the past. God is starting a brand-new thing with you. He is giving you new experiences of success and breakthrough. You need to lea...

VENGEANCE

VENGEANCE             

Mathew 5:38-42
Devotional Verse:-"You have heard that it was said, 'An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.'”  (Vs. 38).

    In the ungodly world, life is tit for tat when people’s cars are mistakenly bashed. There must be a payback for any property mistakenly hit or destroyed. It is actually not out of hand to make a man pay for what he has carelessly handled as a way of discipline for him, but we must not always insist on this so as not to offend God (Romans 12:17).
    In our Scripture for today, Jesus teaches us to be willing to give out things. This teaching is about being liberal and willing to let go by letting God have His way because we must not take vengeance (Romans 12:19). We all could have been involved in this before but we need to learn from the word of God to always let go. We must not be so attached to things that we start returning a slap for a slap, or an eye for an eye (Matthew 5:40).
 
    Sometimes, we must accept that whatever is done is done. It becomes a test for us before God who is our provider. Don’t let Him stop your provision. Remember that, vengeance should be left for God (Deuteronomy 32:35).  Let Him fight for you. Prevent evil and don’t wait for them to happen before you start to think of revenge. Don’t lose your life because of properties but teach people that they must not demonstrate the bitterness of vengeance. Teach them to show love so that God will reward them. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, deliver me from the spirit of vengeance 
 
“TEACH PEOPLE LESSONS BUT ONLY IN LOVE”
