  RIGHTEOUSNESS 2 Corinthians 5:14-21  Devotional:- “For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.” (V. 21) NKJV It is because of the love of God that we are called the people of God today (Romans 9:25). This has created an eternal problem for the devil. In the Old Testament, many people tried to please God, but they were not able, and this brought destruction upon them. The Bible mentioned that Jesus, when He died, went to hell to free the saints (1 Peter 3:19). These are men who had lived all their lives to obey the law, yet were not able to reach the mark of righteousness. Today, the righteousness they were not able to attain, we have effortlessly attained. This is not because we are better than they were, but because we are children born in due season. This is the righteousness referred to in the scripture as imputed righteousness (Romans 4:6-8). This righteousness is given to us through faith in the Lord Jesus Chri...

JEHOVAH-JIREH

JEHOVAH-JIREH

Devotional:- “And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah – Jireh: as it said to this day, in the mount of the Lord it shall be seen”. (V. 14) KJV

    God is a great provider. A provision at a time of need is like water at a time of thirst. All of us are often faced with one need or the other. Some don’t always have their needs met and so they join the poor and become a failure in life. Some others force their need to be met through away and become one of the wicked. And by so doing create sorrow of tomorrow for themselves (Proverbs10:22). But not very many people have known God as a great provider.

God instructed Abraham to go and sacrifice his only son unto Him. Abraham obeyed God by going to the described mountain. As he lifted his hand to kill the child God, called unto him to show him a lamb that He has provided. Abraham named that place Jehovah-Jireh, meaning God shall provide. 

If you like to see God‘s hand of provision in your life also, you must learn to believe Him for it. You must learn to see Him as your provider, God hates no man. So, you should always make your needs known to Him in prayers. Then wait on His instruction for the meeting of your need. And as you obey Him your needs will always be met (Philippians 4:19). He will always provide for you. You need to know that He will not fail those who will trust in Him. And soon you will be out of debt to abundance.

Prayer: Lord, meet my need today

“YOUR NEEDS ARE ONLY OBEDIENCE AWAY FROM YOU”
