MERCY

  MERCY Romans 9:14-27 Devotional:- “So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy” (V 16) NKJV It has often been completely impossible for any human to qualify for the things of God. This is the reason why the world looks like a place of struggle for so many people. Even many Old Testament saints couldn’t make it because of their inadequacies. For Example, if anyone had not achieved their goal on earth. I would least expect a man like Moses to be one. But because he could not fully obey the Lord, he and Aaron could not get to the Promised Land. But you and I in the New Testament have come to enjoy the abundance of the mercy of God. In the scripture we read today, Jesus said, He would have mercy on us. We are the one the bible refers to as the chosen generation. We are the people of His mercy. This is an assurance that we, by His grace, will achieve our purpose on earth, for His mercy shall see us through. The trouble in the life of our paren...

WISDOM TO GATHER

WISDOM TO GATHER

Genesis 41:46-57
Devotional:- “And Joseph gathered grain as the sand of the sea, very much, until he stopped counting for it could not be measured” (V. 49) AMPL

    One of the great virtues that have eluded the life of many people on the earth is the inability to gather good fortune in life. This in turn produces poverty and an inability to achieve good and great things in life. Since many do not understand what is wrong with them, they then resort to looking for wealth through any means good or bad. But let me introduce you to a God who can teach you to profit and give you the power to gather good wealth.

Joseph was a young man exalted in the land of Egypt. During the time of his rulership in the land, God gave him wisdom to gather. And he was successful in the assignment given to him by the king. What wisdom is this? It is wisdom that comes as a virtue of God’s grace. He never saw any of the goods as belonging to him. So, he lives in faithfulness, integrity, loyalty and self-discipline. Not by power nor by might nor by any human ability.

When a life is submitted to God in obedience to His instructions, He guides and empowers to gather. It is therefore a product of knowing the will of God and doing it. It is a product of asking God what to do and doing it (Isaiah 1:19). Then He will be able to lead us into abundance that is more than our needs (Psalm 23:1). And we will need the grace to deny ourselves to start to set things aside no matter how little. Savings is not just a practice but an attitude. There are several ways to walk in this. You can enquire about this. Joseph started saving 20% of the land till he lost count. As soon as you take up this attitude you will have your gathering as the sand of the sea in Jesus name.

Prayer: Lord, teach my hand to gather.

“WHEN YOU ENJOY GRACE TO GATHER YOU CANNOT BUT ENTER INTO YOUR WEALTH”
