  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 ...

GOD OF COVENANT

GOD OF COVENANT

Scripture Reading: Deuteronomy 7:1-10
"Therefore know that the Lord your God, He is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commandments” (V. 9)

It is important that you as a believer come to an understanding that your God is a God of covenant. He is not like man and does not do things like people does things (Isaiah 55:8-9). His dealings with us is govern by His covenant. That is why no matter what anybody does as long as it is not according to the covenant of God, God is not committed to respond.

Often time, Christian get confused of how they feel they have done all they need to do and it is like God is not doing His part of the deal. But most of the time, we don’t even know the covenant of God nor work in it. So God has no business in such practices. This is because He relates with man only on the basis of His covenant (Galatians 6:7).

Some fellow want to just throw money or prayer at God and expect their own expectant result. Such often get disappointed because God is not involved. Please know from today that you don’t deal with God as with men. His covenant is the terms and condition of getting things done in God. Give yourself to studying His covenant to understand His ways. Peace

PRAYER: Lord, teach me your covenants

“GOD IS ONLY COMMITTED TO WHATEVER WE DO WHEN IT IS ACCORDING TO HIS COVENANTS”

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 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 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.
