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.

ACKNOWLEDGING HIM

ACKNOWLEDGING HIM

1 Samuel 30:1-10
Devotional:- “So David inquired of the LORD, saying, "Shall I pursue this troop? Shall I overtake them?" And He answered him, "Pursue, for you shall surely overtake them and without fail recover all"(v. 8) NKJV

    As part of our faithful walk with the Holy Spirit, we must learn to always acknowledge Him. The word of God says “in all our ways, we should acknowledge Him” (Proverbs 3:5-6). It is when we acknowledge Him that we can consciously walk with Him.

The importance of acknowledging the Holy Spirit in us always is the fact that does not allow us to go on without Him. That put a check on our life not to go out of the will of God. That helps us to have quality walk with Him. That helps us to block out other spirit from taking advantage of us (Ephesians 4:27). That helps us to walk in the wisdom of God. That helps us to decide by the wisdom of God who can see beyond the immediate and live above human error.

Friend, the Holy Spirit will always try to be part of your life but it is when you always acknowledge Him that you are part of Him. If a man keeps going on without acknowledging the Holy Spirit, he will not know when he would have gone out into the influence of another spirit many times. This therefore demand that we are always sure that we are led by the Holy Spirit (1 John 4:1; Romans 8:14). Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, help me to always be connected to your Spirit.

“INCONSISTENCY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT IS EQUAL TO DISCONNECTION
