RIGHTEOUSNESS

  RIGHTEOUSNESS 2 Corinthians 5:14-21  Devotional:- “For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.” (V. 21) NKJV It is because of the love of God that we are called the people of God today (Romans 9:25). This has created an eternal problem for the devil. In the Old Testament, many people tried to please God, but they were not able, and this brought destruction upon them. The Bible mentioned that Jesus, when He died, went to hell to free the saints (1 Peter 3:19). These are men who had lived all their lives to obey the law, yet were not able to reach the mark of righteousness. Today, the righteousness they were not able to attain, we have effortlessly attained. This is not because we are better than they were, but because we are children born in due season. This is the righteousness referred to in the scripture as imputed righteousness (Romans 4:6-8). This righteousness is given to us through faith in the Lord Jesus Chri...

THE PRAYER OF FAITH

THE PRAYER OF FAITH

MATTHEW 21:18-22
DEVOTIONAL: “So Jesus answered and said to them, "Assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but also if you say to this mountain, 'Be removed and be cast into the sea,' it will be done” (Vs.21).

    The prayer of a child of God is powerful when it is prayed in faith. In our Scripture for today, we are taught what it will take to make our prayers powerful. Our prayers can only be powerful when they are said in faith. This is why the devil always wants to intimidate us by planting the seed of doubt in us to weaken our prayers. 
    In the Scripture for today, we see how Jesus demonstrated the power of praying in faith. He was hungry as He passed by a tree which He expected to bear fruits but He found no fruits on it. So, Jesus made a decree that no one would ever eat from the tree again. In other words, He condemned the tree which withered and died afterwards. This clearly explains Jesus’ message; that when we pray in faith, even mountains will move at our command.

    Friend, it is time to get result in your prayer life. To pray in faith is to make a decree according to the belief you have in the word of God. Faith grows in our heart when we meditate in the word of God. Faith grows in our hearts when we are inspired by the word of God (Romans 10:17). Don’t keep looking at your situation, but take the word of God in your mouth, cast out the devil and he will flee (James 4:6-7). Peace!

Prayer: Lord, all that troubles my life must move out today in Jesus’ name.

“WHEN WE DON’T DOUBT, THE ANSWERS TO OUR PRAYERS ARE SURE”.
