FLOATING AXE

FLOATING AXE Devotional:- 2 Kings 6:1-7 “So the man of God said, "Where did it fall?" And he showed him the place. So he cut off a stick, and threw it in there; and he made the iron float’’ (V.6) NKJV  Sometimes when we read about some great wonders of God in the Bible, something makes us feel it was because the people were very special. But we need to know that they are men of like passion (James 5:17-18). They were just exactly like we are, but they were only men of faith. This makes God to work wonders through them. The sons of the prophet needed a big place of dwelling. So they decide to cut trees to make a new home. Thank God they requested that Elisha should go with them. As they were cutting the trees, the axe head fell into the deep river. And the man of God asked the Holy Spirit for what to do. The Holy Spirit was what they also depended upon, and there was a miracle. Friend, you also have the Holy Spirit. That stick is the word of God. Speak to the sinking situatio...

HABIT

HABIT     

Joshua 7:16-26 
Devotional- “When I saw among the spoils a beautiful Babylonian garment, two hundred shekels of silver, and a wedge of gold weighing fifty shekels, I coveted them and took them. And there they are, hidden in the earth in the midst of my tent, with the silver under it." Vs. 21


    One terrible thing that has held many people down from experiencing their change is habit. Habits are attitude or practices we have allowed to dominate our lifestyle. There are good and bad habits. The bad ones are practices that could be detrimental to our progress in life. The moment people get used to such habits, the devil takes advantage of it and uses it as a factor of delay and destruction. 

The man we read about today put himself and his family into terrible shame and destruction because of bad habit. This bad habit was covetousness. Most people use to think they will manage through with it but it is not manageable. If you have any bad habit, it is always better to deal with it before it deals with you. Any time God sees this life style in you, He sees no reason for releasing your promotion.

It may be that you are used to lying or stealing or adultery or wickedness or smoking or drinking alcohol. None of these will qualify you for your change. You need to know that God has been giving you a long rope to pull. That is, giving you warning to repent (2 Peter 3:9)

All you need to do is to see the need for change. Then, go back to God and repent before Him. Seek for the counsel of men of God and confess before them. Give more time to fellowship with the word of God and his people (John 15:3). Depart from any association that encourages such habits, then, your change shall come. And you will see your glory emerging. 

Prayer: Lord, deliver me from bad habits

“YOU NEED TO OVERCOME BAD HABIT NOW, SO THAT IT DOES NOT PUT SHAME ON YOUR DAY OF GLORY”
