TIME OF JOY Philippians 4:1-7 Devotional:- “Rejoice in the Lord always: and again l say, rejoice.” (V. 4) KJV One of the most important and most needed virtues of life is joy. When joy is not in place, many things may not be in place. It is joy that eases a man off the tension of life. It is joy that puts men always in health (Proverbs 17:22). It is joy that destroys our doubt. It is the joy in the Lord that increases our faith. It is joy that refreshes our minds and gives us mental richness. There are many more things that joy does in our lives, yet it looks so scarce in the lives of many. This is because there are not many pleasant situations that will help them rejoice. But you, as a believer, should know that you cannot afford to live in sorrow, for without joy, life will be totally in shambles. It is with joy that we can bring our situation back to life and beauty (Isaiah 12:3). It is the strength of life (Nehemiah 8:10). The coming of Jesus to the world brought the joy that would...

YOUR CLAIM

YOUR CLAIM

Scripture Reading: Isaiah 1:16-20
Devotional:- "Come now, and let us reason together," Says the Lord, "Though your sins are like scarlet, They shall be as white as snow; Though they are red like crimson, They shall be as wool” (V. 18) NKJV

    All God’s children have the right to the covenant provision of God (Galatians 3:13-14). The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ has purchased for us a right in God. God’s covenant is therefore for our claim as the prodigal son demanded for his portion.

The word of God asked us to bring forth strong reasons (Isaiah 41:21). The word of God said we should come and reason together with God (Isaiah 1:8). This is not as contending with our maker, but as claiming our right from our father. That is why; we must put in mind that we must identify our part and be obedience to the covenant before we start to claim in prayers.

The word of God says, you should clean up yourself. Then you can come to claim in prayers (Luke 15:12). This is walking in the covenant and not religion. The elder brother of the prodigal son claimed nothing and he was blamed (Luke 15:25-32). He is the owner of all but claimed nothing. That is how religious people will always be angry with covenant children. Be warned. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, deliver my portion to me

“HE THAT CLAIM NOTHING HAS NOTHING”
