A CHOSEN PEOPLE

A CHOSEN PEOPLE Deuteronomy 7:4-11 Devotional:- “…the Lord your God has chosen you to be a people for Himself a special treasure above all the peoples on the face of the earth…” (V.6)      The basic challenge we are facing that does not make us understand our new position in Christ is that of misunderstanding how we become a child of God. Because we do not understand what it takes, many don’t even value it. So they easily throw it off their mind. Many today are not holding on to their faith and are easily discouraged simply because they lack understanding of the richness of their choice. Some also put up some pride and some show up because they think they were qualified.

THE AUTHOR

THE AUTHOR 

Devotional:- "So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them" (V. 27)

God, the creator of all human is the author of marriage-relationship. He is the one who knows the purpose of marriage. He is the one who determines the way marriage is to be instituted. It will therefore be very important for us to follow His pattern and to get the best of our relationship. His intension was to make man have the best of each other. His intention is to make a marriage the best place for man on earth.

For you to have the best of your relationship, you need to look into how the author aimed it to be. If God is the author, then we have to look into his pattern to have our best. God then must be allowed to govern our home; in how we relate and communicate, in how we treat ourselves in the family, in how we raise our children and in how we manage our resources. All of these should not be patterned after the world but by the instructions of God. A godly family should daily have fellowship with God and His word. This is how God will rule in our home. Anything outside this is of the devil and not of God.

Friend, let us all submit to what the author prescribed. His wisdom cannot be compared to ours. Let us follow His pattern and His approach. The church of Jesus should not be part of worldliness in marriage. Peace

Prayer: Lord, give me the grace to allow you to govern my home by your pattern.

"A HOME NOT GOVERN BY GOD WILL BE GOVERNED BY THE DEVIL"
