NEW THING

NEW  THING Isaiah 43:18-21  Devotional:- “For I'm going to do a brand-new thing. See, I have already begun! Don't you see it? I will make a road through the wilderness of the world for my people to go home, and create rivers for them in the desert!? (V.19) TLB      Sometimes we make the mistake of basing our faith not on the word of God but upon our experiences. Many of us do not know that faith will always be weak in us when we allow it to attend the school of experience. That is, we weigh it or compare it with what we’ve gone through in the past. Then it becomes doubt. I know you might have gone through all kinds of experiences in the past years. You have prayed, and nothing happened. You have waited only to see nothing. Yet you will need to believe God afresh for a new experience in this year.

TAKE YOUR CROSS AND FOLLOW

TAKE YOUR CROSS AND FOLLOW

Luke 9:21-27
Devotional:- “Then He said to them all, "If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me” (V23)


    No one can end up his/her journey in heaven with Jesus except he/she is ready to follow Jesus with the cross. Jesus, been our perfect example in God carries His cross a long distance to the place of crucifixion. It was a painful experience of His life. So we must all do the same. This time not to the mountain of Crucifixion but of glorification.

To carry our crosses and follow Him means we keep our walk with Jesus not minding the challenging experiences of our lives. The crosses are the different challenges and trials of our lives. Those crosses intend to stop us in the journey of life but we must be determined to use it as our factor to growing stronger in the Lord. 

This will surely demand good understanding of the way of the Lord. It will demand you denying yourself in every situation to follow only the way of the Lord. Then, we will be strong enough to take the journey to eternity with Jesus. Peace. 

PRAYER: Lord, strengthen me to follow to the end.

“MUCH STRENGTH IS A PRODUCT OF VICTORY OVER CHALLENGES”
