SUBMIT TO HIM

  SUBMIT TO HIM John 14:12-24  “Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.” (V. 23) NKJV   Sometimes on the platform of love, there is nothing men cannot offer to one another. If you truly love a man you will not want to reject or disobey him. You will want to do as much as it is in your capacity. You will not want to turn him down. Can you imagine how strictly you want to keep to an appointment with a loved one? If we have attached so much importance to responding to our lover, how much more God. If you truly love God it will be natural for you to submit to His will. You will not need to argue or ask too many questions. It will be a pleasure submitting to His will. Jesus said in the scripture we read today, if anyone loves me he will keep my words. In other word he will submit or obey my word.

FOR YOUR ADVANTAGE

FOR YOUR ADVANTAGE

Isaiah 60:1-8
Devotional:- “or behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and deep darkness the people; but the Lord will arise over you and his glory will be seen upon you.” (v. 2)

    It is visible in the scriptures we read today that God’s word has already foreseen the doom of this generation. In other word, the current shaking is from the Lord. It is part of His agenda for the end time. This shaking is actually necessary to put shame to ungodliness and people’s hope in material and money which has become the gods of many.

I like you to see that, as much as these shakings are programmed by God, it is also for your rising and glory. Our devotional verse shows us that darkness will cover the earth. Also in the middle of the verse comes a conjunction ‘but…’ this simply show us that some people shall be exempted like it happened to the children of Israel in Egypt (Exodus 8:23).

God’s word says, though darkness shall cover the earth but God shall arise over you. This darkness is confusion and lack of understanding of what to do. But the light of God will lighten your way. Since darkness is what brings out the glory of light, the darkness is therefore for your advantages. All you need to ask for is light from above. Remember, the word of God says you will stand out (Matthew 5:14-16). While the people in confusion are selling their properties, you will receive grace to be buying. While they are quitting, you will be getting established and taking over in Jesus name. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, Release Your Light On Me.

“LIGHT ALWAYS TAKES ADVANTAGE OF DARKNESS TO SHINE.”
