LOVING THE LORD

LOVING THE LORD  John 14:19-24 Devotional:- “Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him” (V. 23) NKJV      It is important that we as believers truly love the Lord. It is only those who love the Lord that will enjoy the best of God. Do not be part of Christians who handle the things of God carelessly. No one can stay distant and enjoy the best of a relationship. Therefore, you must grow your love for God if you are His child.

SUBMIT TO GOD

SUBMIT TO GOD

James 4:7-10
Devotional:- "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you". (V. 7)

    God made man as a free moral agent but that was because he wants us to voluntarily submit to Him. To submit is to make your life a Sub under His mission. This means to make Him your controller. To make His mission your mission for life. To allow Him be the supreme over your life. It is to follow God’s way as your vision.

Submission is best done willingly not out of fear or force, but out of love. The word submission is best pronounced as surrender. To be able to surrender your life to God you must trust that he will not fail you (Romans 9:33). To be able to totally surrender to God you need to admit that you have limitations in other words there are things you cannot do for yourself. That is why you will need His strength in many parts of your life (Philippians 4:13).

Friend, Christians are not those who struggle with God or with his word. They are those who submit or surrender to Him. Christians don’t argue the word of God but obey it. Christians don’t live in fear; they live by trust in the faithfulness of God. They know their life is not theirs anymore; they use it in submission to God (Matthew 26:39). The Lord will give you grace.

 Prayer: Lord, help me to live in submission to you always.

 “You would not be able to handle God’s authority if you don’t submit to Him”.

THE GRACIOUS Exodus 34:1-8 Devotional:- “…The Lord, the Lord a God merciful and gracious, long-suffering and abundance in goodness and truth” (V.6) AMPL      For believers of this Generation to have the fullness of heaven as the word of God promised, they will need to have the right understanding of who our God is. It is the wrong concept of God that has limited the exploitation of Christians and made many lives wrongly. God’s word says those who know their God shall be strong (Daniel 11:32). If you will be stronger than your challenges you must know your God.

ONLY THE VICTORS Revelation 21:1-8 Devotional:- “He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son” (v. 7) NKJV      In this part of the world, many are not so used to taking responsibility over challenges. Instead of been proactive to foresee and prevent issues, people are used to looking out for whom to blame and who should help out (Proverbs 14:23). It is vivid that we are in a challenging season. It is also clear that we are drawing closer to the end of the age.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
