FRIENDSHIP WITH GOD

  FRIENDSHIP WITH GOD Romans 5:1-11 Devotional:- “For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life” (V. 10)  As a kingdom citizen please known that God wants to be your best friend. This is because intimacy is part of your act of worship. It is true that God is our maker and redeemer yet he wants to be our friend. Remember we were made to live continually in God’s presence but it is sin that makes us loose that (Gen 3, Roman 3:23)  In our scripture for today we saw that it was grace through the sacrifice of the cross that gives us access to friendship with God (2 Corinthians 5:18). Our friendship with God does not mean casual acquaintance but close and trusted relationships just like the best man in a wedding.

QUIET PLACE

QUIET PLACE

Scripture:  Matthew 6:1-8
Devotional:- But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly (v.6) NKJV

    For anyone to grow as a disciple of Jesus Christ, you need to create the right atmosphere for this. In our homes we have the seating room, bedroom, kitchen, toilets or dinning room. These rooms help us to do the right thing at the right place. The same with spiritual things. Jesus also have a place He alone always withdrew to pray ( Luke 22:39).

There is something significant in choosing a perfect place of prayer and studying the word of God. Just like your mind expect food to come whenever you sit at the dinning room, when you also get to the place you’ve appointed to seek the Lord, your mind will resume to study and prayers.

Friend,we can pray anywhere and God will answer, but you need a specific place in your house to be alone with Jesus. Some call it prayer alter or worship place in the house. Make sure it is not a place you can be distracted. Be sure you keep your Bible and writing materials around the place. Even if you have just a room to yourself, please choose a particular side of your bed. The Holy Spirit will always wait for you in  the appointed place. This is a critical factor in your discipleship journey. Peace.

Prayer:- Lord, give me an experience of your daily visitation

“When you get to the place with Jesus, heaven will always be opened”
