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...

STUDY THE WORD

STUDY THE WORD    

Joshua 1: 1-9
Devotional:- “This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success” (v.8) NKJV


   To grow is to increase in strength and strength is adding up in knowledge (Proverb 24:5) Those who hate knowledge cannot grow. That is why ignorance is a sin to God. (Hosea 4:6) This is because, those who lack knowledge have deliberately ignore knowledge. They don’t want to take the pain or pay the price. As a child of light, you must not live-in ignorance or else you will expose yourself to the activities of the devil (1 John 1:7). 

The word of God says, we must meditate on the word to be able to gain strength to do them. The challenge with studying is the fact that it is beyond reading. It is working or laboring to get more insight from an information. It is making research into an information. To make research demand some level of repetition and tautology. So, the lazy always avoid it. If you want to grow as a citizen of the kingdom of God, you must study the word of God. There is nothing really good that is at the surface. Good virtues are deeper than normal. It takes strong determination to fetch them out. 

Friend, stop rushing to read your Bible. Take two or three verses at a time and study them deeply by meditating over them. You need to search deeper to gain understanding (Psalm 119:130). Then you will find strength to do or to obey the word of God. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord, give me the grace to study.
