STRENGTH IN GOD

STRENGTH IN GOD 2 Corinthians 10:1-6 Devotional:- “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds” (V4) NKJV      Many Christians today have so much confusion about their strength in God. It has made the church think that a few limited people can demonstrate the strength of God. So, multitudes are weak in strength. Though they come to church, yet in times of challenges, you see them rushing to another Christian whom they know to be stronger in God. Neglecting the fact that a New Testament believer is a potential priest and king for Christ (Revelation 5:10; Mark 16:17).

FAITH   

1 Samuel 17:23-32
Devotional:- "Then David spoke to the men who stood by him, saying, “What shall be done for the man who kills this Philistine and takes away the reproach from Israel? For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?” (V. 26)

A major factor of strength in every man is faith. Faith is a product of the revelation of the word of God to our spirit man (Romans 10:17). Without faith, no man will rise to achieve anything. Most people envy a successful man but are not always ready to pay the price. Faith is the compulsion in your spirit man to step out.

Faith is the Holy Spirit activating strength in you to carry out the counsel of God. David was been instigated by the Holy spirit through the revelation of the word of God. So he kept repeating the word to himself. “Who is this uncircumcised philistine to defile the army of the living God”? It is the stimulation of this word that pushes David on to action of rising to overcome.

Friend, don’t just keep praying. Prayer is also an avenue to contact the revelation of the power of God (Jeremiah 33:3). In prayer, God shows us the way out. That is why we should be very sensitive to know what God want us to do. Meditating in the word of God also stimulate us with revelation to arise in faith (Daniel 9:1-3). By faith David steps out to terminate Goliath the enemy of God’s people. Stop being afraid to launch out. Meditate to access revelation of His word and you will have faith to rise.

Prayer: Lord, release the faith in me to arise

“NO FAITH, NO RISING, NO RISING, NO SUCCESS”

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.

FRUITFULNESS

FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV      One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans?  If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.

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.
