  PROMISES Isaiah 55:1-13  Devotional:- “So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it” (V.11) NKJV One thing that is common with lovers are promises. It is part of what a true lover will want to hear. To a true lover, a promise is like a cheque capable of turning into cash. So when people who love us promise us, we cherish the promises. And when we remember them, it gladdens our heart. We even sometime feel happy enough to share it with other friends. One other terrible thing that is common with people is failing to fulfill promises. That is why it will be unwise to marry someone based on mare promises. These failure in promises of people, in some cases, are due to the inadequacy of human strength, or unforeseen circumstances that can overtake the promises, so the promised often feel deceived.

GOD ON EARTH

GOD ON EARTH

Joel 2:27-32
Devotional:- "And it shall come to pass afterward That I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your old men shall dream dreams, Your young men shall see visions” (V. 28)

    God gave His word to His people through Prophet Joel that He will pour out His Spirit on all flesh. This prophecy became fulfilled from the day of Pentecost. Before this time, the Spirit of the Lord rested on few people who are used by the Lord to carry out different assignments for God. God gave a promise that He will pour out His Spirit on all to cone to be on earth and live on earth through men.

Since the day of Pentecost, God the Holy Spirit has been permanent on the earth just like Jesus was on the earth physically at a time. The strong revelation here is that God is on earth in men. This is a mystery that God is on earth through human vessel (1Corinthians 3:16). That is why you as a spirit filled believer should know that you are a divine vessel of God.

Friend, wherever you are, God is there through you. It will therefore be wrong and grieving to the Holy Spirit by living as mere men (Ephesians 4:30). Many have grieved Him because they do not understand Him. Many take Him to be for the church time, outside that, they live as men and disobey the Holy Spirit at will. Please recognize you are a carrier of God. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to recognize you in me always.

“The world has not known God because you have not known Him”
