BLESSINGS Ephesians 2:1-8 Devotional:- “How we praise God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every blessing in heaven because we belong to Christ.” (V. 3) TLB. In the demonstration of the love of Christ to us, believers need to come to awareness that He has made every blessing available to us in heavenly places. You need to know that nothing happens physically on earth unless it has been first approved by heaven. You will observe some people trying to achieve something you consider not too difficult, but it eventually becomes impossible for them. This is because heaven has not approved it for them. You must have heard apostle Paul use the language, “from the foundation of the world," which is the things already concluded in heaven for us.  But as for you, the Bible says, God has already blessed you with all blessings in the heavenly places. It means they are approved for you. And whatever heaven approves for you, He will support you to attain it. You can...

PURPOSEFUL

1 Samuel 17:41-51 NKJV
This day the LORD will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you and take your head from you. And this day I will give the carcasses of the camp of the Philistines to the birds of the air and the wild beasts of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel. (V 46)

    There is a need for us to understand that God judge the intent of the heart. The Bible says, “by Him actions are weighed (1 Samuel 2:3). Your purpose of doing anything matters to God. This determines whether He will help you or not. Anything you do to acclaim a self-glory; don’t be surprised the end result will not be successful. God’s word says my glory will I not share with another (Isaiah 42:8). Therefore, you must watch the purpose of your step or actions anytime and every time.

David knew this as one of the factors of having the support of God for victory. So, he told Goliath that the whole world will know that there is a God in Israel. In other words, he was standing that God may be exalted. He has automatically engaged God in this battle. And when God is involved, victory is inevitable.

Make sure everything you do is to glorify God. Both in prayer, in preaching the gospel, in giving, in counselling, in assistance, in going for an examination, interview or facing a panel or in facing life’s challenges. God will do everything to always give you victory that you may glorify Him. Never you have selfish motive, it will make you lose God in your battle. Let His glory always be your motive and your motivation, then you will always win.

Prayer: Lord, let all I do only be for your glory

“YOUR PURPOSE DETERMINES THE END POINT”
