THE PAST

  THE PAST Isaiah 43:8-21 Devotional:- “Do not remember the former things, Nor consider the things of old.” (v.18) NKJV God, who gives us a memory, want us to use our past experiences to help us make quality decisions in the future, but the past is always the enemy of the future for many. If you don’t know how to manage your memory system of the past, it is capable of standing against your success in the future. As emotional beings, we are sometimes faced with the challenges of memories of our past experiences, our errors and failures. You will observe that at every point of decision-making to progress, the enemy will bring back to your memory the past experiences of your failure. This is just to bring fear to your heart and make you doubt the possibility of your success, so you could lose your joy. The scripture we read today instructs us to let go of the past. God is starting a brand-new thing with you. He is giving you new experiences of success and breakthrough. You need to lea...

AS HE COMMANDS

AS HE COMMANDS

1 Samuel 15:10-23
So Samuel said: “Has the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, As in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, And to heed than the fat of rams. (V 22)

    God is sovereign in all things. He is the alpha and omega of our lives. It is not when it comes to the battle and victory in life that He will not back us up. He is our creator. He has the right to direct us as His battle axe, we are to obey Him (Jeremiah 51:20). Failure to obey the commander, proves that you are rebellions and that can lead to total destruction.

Saul was made a king by God, yet God expect him to understand that He is still the commander. God expect that Saul should know that he is an instrument of battle in His hand. No matter your position or your level of wisdom, don't forget that you still have to do it as He commanded. He gave you all, and He knows how to withdraw them.

Saul eventually went to the battle in contrary to instruction, brought alive the people and those things God told him to destroy, and this led to the fall of Saul.

Friend, if you don't want to fall or fail as you go about facing life challenges, don't depend on your status or wisdom. Do it only as He has commanded. This is when your victory is secure and you will live without shame. This is when you can enjoy a lasting success. Don't forget that He is the master. Always ask for His leading and be obedient to Him. You will keep winning in Jesus name.

Prayer: Lord, help me to keep doing all things as you command me.

“HIS COMMANDS ARE OUR COMMISSION INTO VICTORY”.
