  NOT AUTOMATIC Philippians.1:1-11 Devotional:- “And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns” (V.6 NLT) Knowing fully well that spiritual growth is one of your purpose of been on the earth, then you also need to know that developing Christ-like character takes years, it is not automatic. We open to God bit by bit. Discipleship is the process of conforming to Christ (Romans 12:2, Ephesians 4:13). The truth is that the journey to Christ-likeness is a life time journey. Growth involves believing, belonging (through fellowship) and becoming (through discipleship). Every day God want you to become a little more like Him (Colossians 3:10) Today we are interested in speed but God is interested in strength and stability than swiftness (2 Corinthians 3:18). The reason it takes time to grow is because we are slow learner. We often have to relearn a lesson forth or fifty times to reall...

WHAT IS INSPIRATION?

WHAT IS INSPIRATION?

Scripture Reading 1 Chronicles 12:16-21
Devotional: “Then the Spirit came upon Amasai, chief of the captains, and he said: "We are yours, O David; We are on your side, O son of Jesse! Peace, peace to you, And peace to your helpers! For your God helps you." So David received them, and made them captains of the troop” (V. 18) NKJV

    To be inspired is to be driven by a force into an action. It is to be influenced into an action. It is to be moved for a performance. It is a sudden mental stimulation to be brilliant or been creative to solve a problem. Whenever we are inspired, our mind is stimulated to act supernaturally. It is to have a sudden and timely idea that can show the next step forward.

Some men from the tribe of king Saul, the enemy of David was moved by the Lord to help David. It is a dangerous thing to accept people from the camp of your enemy. But the Holy Spirit inspired one of them and he started prophesying. As children of God, filled with the Holy Spirit, we should always allow the Holy Spirit to inspire us and not the flesh in any situation.

By inspiration, a man will always speak wisdom above his mental ability. He will act beyond the natural. As a writer, broadcaster or an actor, designer or whatever profession we are, the inspiration by the Holy Spirit will make us to excel above others. Acknowledging by asking the Holy Spirit in us to help us will always connect us to the inspiration of the Holy Spirit (Proverbs 3:5-6). And we will be a solution for progress. Peace

PRAYER: Lord, help me to always connect with your Spirit in me.

“THE INSPIRATION OF GOD WILL MAKE GOD WORK THROUGH YOU”
