SUCCESS AND YOUR PURPOSE

SUCCESS YOUR PURPOSE 2 Timothy 4:1-8 Devotional:- “And now the prize awaits me-the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give me on the day of his return. And the prize is not just for me but for all who eagerly look forward to his appearing” (V. 8) NLT When a person turns to the Lord, invite Jesus to his/her life, and surrender to Jesus as Lord and saviour, then he/she sincerely becomes a Christian. This is the state many in the church has not attained. Many struggle to surrender their lives to the Lord because they are afraid of failure, not able to trust God to give them success, and their love for the things of this world (1 John 2:15-17). When you sincerely surrender your life to Jesus Christ, your view of success cannot but change. Apostle Paul said, “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, and I have remained faithful” (2 Timothy 4:7).

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”
