  MEDIATING Hebrews 8:1-13 Devotional:- “But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, inasmuch as He is also Mediator of a better covenant, which was established on better promises” (V. 6) NKJV In the Old Testament, the human priest used to stand in the gap between God and man. But because they are also human and can also sin, their priesthood was not able to actually deliver the human race. This is the ministry Jesus is carrying out on behalf of the believers since His ascension to heaven.  This ministry was taken over by Jesus because He loves us. Though He is seated on the throne but sitting closely to the Father to advocate for us. A mediator is someone who stands in the gap between the benefactor and the beneficiary. He is the one who pleads our cause to God. He is the one who intercedes for us before the Father. That is why we can be certain of our faith in God through Christ Jesus. Friend, since we know that we have Christ Jesus standing in for us, then our faith ...

BLESSING AND CURSES

BLESSING AND CURSES 

Scripture Reading: Deuteronomy 30:11-20
Devotional:- “I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live” (V. 19) NKJV

    It is important that you understand the God you are relating with in other to enjoy the best of your God. It should therefore be clear to you that your God is a God of covenant. Covenant is an agreement sealed by blood. It always contains the terms of agreement as a strong relationship. It also contains two-coin side blessings and curses.

Since each party has a role to play, when each party is faithful, there are blessing for the faithfulness. But when any of the party defaults, there are curses (Deuteronomy 28:15; Isaiah 1:19-20; Galatians 6:7). This is the major reason why many children of God are not enjoying the blessings of the Lord.

Please remember, that it is the grace of God that gives us access to the father and son relationship we have with God. Grace of God brought us in, but without our obedience, grace will not sustain the relationship (Romans 6:1-2; John 15:14). Friend, find your way back to the word of God. Start to ask for the grace to obey His covenant word. And you will be blessed. You can not obey Him and be disappointed. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to keep obeying your word for my lifting.

“THE BLESSING OF THE COVENANT IS IN YOUR PART”

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

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.

COURAGE

COURAGE Joshua 1:1-9 Devotional:- “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go” (V. 9) NKJV      A major reason why many people are weak is because their level of courage is so low, that it cannot sustain them through to success. So they easily give up when faced with challenges. There is need for us to understand that there is no action that will not attract a reaction. So the only answer is courage.
