  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).

TRUST-LIFE INSURANCE

TRUST-LIFE INSURANCE

Psalm 37:1-6
Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass. (V 5)

    When you entrust something to someone hand, you expect him not only to keep it but to keep it very well. Many of us save in the bank because we have trust in them to keep it very well for us. This is also important to anyone who will not be defeated in the battle of his/her life.

If a man goes to battle alone putting his life into his own hand, that makes it easy to be defeated and kill finally. Most army find one thing or the other to trust their life on before going to battle (Proverbs 25:19).

David always put his trust and confidence in the Lord. That is why he always he goes to each battle and wins (Psalm 20:7-8). Jesus wanted to go to the final battle with death and hell when on the cross and have to commit his life to the hand of God (Luke 23:46). Paul also showed us this secret of victory in his life (2 Timothy 1:12). I am convinced that He is able to keep whatever I have committed unto Him.

Friends, I don't know whose hand you are committing your life to. Is it to money, materials, position, influence or people? All these do not guarantee your security in time of troubles (Ecclesiastes 8:8). But if you trust your life into the Lord of the Lord, you will be as firm as a rock. Your security and victory shall be guaranteed in Jesus name.

Prayer: Lord, into your hand I commit my life, family and destiny

"WHOSE HAND YOU TRUST YOUR LIFE DETERMINES YOUR SAFETY".
