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.

HUMILITY TO CONNECT

HUMILITY TO CONNECT

Scripture Reading Psalms 25:8-15
Devotional:- “The humble He guides in justice, And the humble He teaches His way” (V. 9) NKJV

    If anyone is not humble, such cannot regularly connect with the Holy Spirit for inspiration. The word of God says pride goes before a fall (Proverbs 16:18). The reason a proud man will fall is because, there are many things our physical eyes cannot see or that man do not know. It takes humility to be guided out of any trap.

You are too precious to fall. So, you cannot degrade yourself to the level of pride. A proud man is belittling himself by subtracting the presence of God from his activities. So, he will be working or talking with mere head and human limitations, errors, mistakes etc, and this will soon bring shame to him.

 Friend, you cannot descend that low. You are not made to live without God. (John 15:5). Wisdom demand that you allow Him to be part of all you are doing and by all, I mean all (Psalms 23:6; Proverbs 3:5-6). This is wisdom (Matthew 7:24). No matter your degree, fourth or seventh, you are limited in understanding. You are prone to error. Don’t be too forward. Humble yourself to ask Him to help you in all things. Then, you are out for wisdom. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to always recognize my place in you.

“YOU ARE TOO PRECIOUS TO BE PROUD”

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.

FRUITFULNESS

FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV      One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans?  If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.

THE GRACIOUS

THE GRACIOUS Exodus 34:1-8 Devotional:- “…The Lord, the Lord a God merciful and gracious, long-suffering and abundance in goodness and truth” (V.6) AMPL      For believers of this Generation to have the fullness of heaven as the word of God promised, they will need to have the right understanding of who our God is. It is the wrong concept of God that has limited the exploitation of Christians and made many lives wrongly. God’s word says those who know their God shall be strong (Daniel 11:32). If you will be stronger than your challenges you must know your God.
