A CHOSEN PEOPLE

A CHOSEN PEOPLE Deuteronomy 7:4-11 Devotional:- “…the Lord your God has chosen you to be a people for Himself a special treasure above all the peoples on the face of the earth…” (V.6)      The basic challenge we are facing that does not make us understand our new position in Christ is that of misunderstanding how we become a child of God. Because we do not understand what it takes, many don’t even value it. So they easily throw it off their mind. Many today are not holding on to their faith and are easily discouraged simply because they lack understanding of the richness of their choice. Some also put up some pride and some show up because they think they were qualified.

STRENGTH

STRENGTH

Scripture Reading: Isaiah 40:21-31
Devotional:- “But those who wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint”” (V. 31) NKJV

    It is important that you know strength come through your spirit. As muscular a man could be, when the spirit is out of him, he will lie down helpless. Strength is not just mental; it is only processed by the mind. That is why a man could be very intelligent but frustrated and helpless. It is the spirit that gives man strength, the mind processes it by thinking in the intellect decide by the will and carries it out through the emotional drive of the body. So, whenever you feel weak or you really cannot find enough strength to rise to action, the covenant responsibility is to wait on the Lord.

To wait on the Lord is to wait for His instructions or direction. His words are powerful (Hebrews 4:12). It comes with strength for execution (John6:63). This is what is called faith.

 We receive His word when we fellowship with Him: in worship and prayers (Acts 13:1-2). His word will come to us when we are praying in the spirit and meditating in His word (1 Corinthians 14:4; Psalms 1:1-3). Wherever His word is, His power is there (Ecclesiastics 8:4). His words transmit His power to man (Ezekiel 2:2). You will not be weak again in Jesus name. Peace.

 PRAYER: Lord, help me to always connect to your strength

“IT’S WHEN YOUR SPIRIT IS STRONG THAT YOU ARE STRONG”
