  PEACE Proverbs 12:15-25 Devotional:- “Deceit is in the heart of those who devise evil, But counselors of peace have joy” (v.20) NKJV Two virtues often work together, and they are hardly separable; they are peace and joy. You cannot have one without the other. The moment one of them is with you, it will draw the second. This is because they are both products of God’s presence. Wherever the kingdom of God is established either in the house or office, surely peace and joy of the Lord will be present there (Galatians 5:22, Romans 14:17). The scripture we read today said there shall be joy for those who promote peace. Jesus says Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God (Matthew 5:9). And you know that God dwell in the heart of His children (I Corinthians 3:16). You also know that God’s presence commands joy (Psalms 16:11).

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”
