DISTANCING FROM THE SCRIPTURES

DISTANCING FROM THE SCRIPTURES Deuteronomy 8:1-11 Devotional:- “To teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD” (v.3) NIV      The word of God is the bank of our strength in God. The word of God is the strength of God (John 1:1-3; Hebrews 4:12). Through the word, God had done all He had done. God’s word says, without Him, nothing else was created (John 1:3). When a man, therefore, distances himself from the Word of God, such is distancing himself from his source, He will lack the strength of God.

POSITIVE WORD

POSITIVE WORD

Scripture Reading: Numbers 14:1-10
Devotional:- “If the LORD delights in us, then He will bring us into this land and give it to us, 'a land which flows with milk and honey” (V. 8) NKJV

    Our words are commands to the forces of the spirit of God that are assigned by God to be around us. (Psalms 91:11-12; Hebrews 1:14; Exodus 23:23). Their responsibility is to help us in the invisible part of our assignment. All they need to receive is a word of God from us. They are assigned to serve us (Psalm 103:20). When we speak the word of God, they take action to perform it.

The challenge is when we speak the negative, we confuse them (Ecclesiastics 5:6). Someone who wants to succeed should have the heart of speaking the positive (Joshua 1:8). To overcome the challenge of negative words, we have to understand that our words come from our heart (Matthew 12:34). So, to cultivate the habit of positive words, we have to cultivate positive heart by studying the word of God.

Positive heart and words are therefore cultivated by taking word the word of God repeatedly (Colossians 3:16). Positive words are majorly in the word of God (John 17:17). The heart of most people has already record multiple negative words, so, there is a strong need to renew our mind in the word of God (Romans 12:2). This is by accepting the word and the plan of God for us over and above our experiences or situations. Things happen from our heart, so we must impose the word of God over the negative. This is how to allow God of all possibility in our situations. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, give me the ability to keep speaking positive word.

MASTER’S MINAS

MASTER’S MINAS Luke 19:11-27 Devotional:- “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come” (V. 13) NKJV      The word of God instructs us to do business. The Bible did not advise us to do business but it commanded us. That is why it would be wrong for you and me to be without a business. That makes idleness a crime against self (1 Thessalonians 4:11). Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.

FRUITFULNESS

FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV      One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans?  If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
