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.

LIVING SACRIFICE

LIVING SACRIFICE

Scripture Reading: Romans 12:1-5
Devotional:- “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service” (V. 1) NKJV


    Jesus is the sacrificial Lamb of God. He laid down His life to redeem us. His blood has become the price of our salvation (Ephesians 1:7). The Bible calls Him the first among the living (Romans 8:29). This means we are to follow His example to please the Lord. That is why the word of God says “we are to be a living sacrifice”.

A living sacrifice is a sacrifice that is still alive. Whatever is sacrificed ought to be killed. A sacrifice is a life released to be used to serve and to worship God. It is to let go a life in honour and worship to God. Being a living sacrifice is to surrender once life to God to be used. That is why the Bible says “this is our reasonable service.

Friend, if you want to be a vessel unto honour, then, you must present your bodies as a living sacrifice to God. Then, the Holy Spirit will sanctify your body and make it holy and acceptable unto the Lord. This will happen when you stop conforming to the way of the world. Then start to take time to study the word of God. Let the Holy Spirit transform you into the will and the way of God. Do this by yielding to His instructions. Then, you will become a living sacrifice and a vessel unto honour. Peace

PRAYER: Lord, help me to totally surrender to you

“A SACRIFICIAL LAMB IS DEAD TO HIMSELF BUT ONLY ALIVE TO GOD”
