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...

DOMINION

Scripture Reading: Romans 5:12-21
Devotional:- “For if by the one man's offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ”.(V.17)

    God made man for dominion over all other creatures (Genesis 1:27), yet one will find out that forces dominating the life of many people. This is quite contrary to the order of God for our lives. That is why you must refuse to allow any factor of this world to enslave you. If that will be so, I like to introduce you to one of the wisdom that produces dominion. This is the righteousness of God.

Righteousness is the very nature of God. It is the atmosphere that surrounds the throne of God (Hebrews 1:8). That is why the angels must be singing Holy Holy Holy 24/7 around the throne of God (Isaiah 6:1-3). It is when you sustain your righteous walk with God in yielding to obey Him that you become holy (Matthew 6:48). That is why Jesus gave us the Holy Spirit to help us to be holy.

When you are walking in righteousness, the atmosphere around you will become unapproachable to the forces of wickedness. This is because what is around God will be around you. (Proverbs 11:8). Friend, you will be wise to choose righteousness in all your way. This is by choosing to obey the Lord in all you do. Wherever you appear, wicked forces will disappear and you will live in constant dominion. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, strengthen me to walk in your righteousness all my days

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

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.
