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...

HIS ENERGY

Scripture Reading: 2 Peter 1:16-21
Devotional:-“ for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit” (V. 21) NKJV


    God’s vessel of honour are the people who serve with His energy. To serve with His energy is to run in life with the strength of the Holy Spirit. The energy of God will make someone to serve above his/her ability or capacity. The energy of the Spirit makes God to work through us (Philippians 2:13). When a man is running with the energy of the spirit, he cannot be weary (Isaiah 40:31). When someone is running or serving with the energy of the spirit, all barriers will crumble (Zechariah 6:6-7). He will be strong.

The word of God told us that the scripture was written by inspiration of the Holy Spirit (2Timothy 3:16). This means, they were written by the energy of God. (Philippians 2:13). Everyone who wants to be a vessel unto honour should be ready to run with the energy of the spirit. This is by allowing the Holy Spirit to insure and instruct us into our actions.

To run by the energy of the spirit is to regularly wait on the Lord for directions (Isaiah 40:31). We receive the energy by regularly meditating upon the word of God (Psalms 1:1-3). We tap into the energy of the spirit when we fellowship with God (Acts 4:13). This we also experience when fellowshipping with children of God (Psalms 84:7). When you are riding on the energy of God, you will keep manifesting His honour. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, teach me the way of your strength

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

MASTER’S MINAS Luke 19:11-27 Devotional:- “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come” (V. 13) NKJV      The word of God instructs us to do business. The Bible did not advise us to do business but it commanded us. That is why it would be wrong for you and me to be without a business. That makes idleness a crime against self (1 Thessalonians 4:11). Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.

COURAGE

COURAGE Joshua 1:1-9 Devotional:- “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go” (V. 9) NKJV      A major reason why many people are weak is because their level of courage is so low, that it cannot sustain them through to success. So they easily give up when faced with challenges. There is need for us to understand that there is no action that will not attract a reaction. So the only answer is courage.
