FORGIVING YOURSELF

  FORGIVING YOURSELF Luke 22:54-62  Devotional:- “So Peter went out and wept bitterly.bitterly.” (V.62) NKJV Before a man can begin to enjoy the expressive love of God in his life, he must learn the act of self-forgiveness. Self-condemnation is always a terrible permission for the devil to take over in the life of a believer. This can make him lose his self-worth in God’s presence. It can make a believer lose his authority in Christ. It can make a believer lose his joy and build an environment of sorrow. And you need to know that the environment of sorrow removes from you the presence of God. He only dwells where there is fullness of joy (Psalms 16:11). Unforgiveness can make a man build an atmosphere of fear and then permit the presence of demons. This also breeds discouragement and frustration and makes the life of its victim miserable. The wonderful thing in the scripture we read today is that, though Peter denied Christ publicly and committed a grievous sin, he did not let...

GETTING FAITH

GETTING FAITH

Romans 10:13-17
Devotional:- “So faith comes by hearing and hearing the word of God” (V. 17)

    It is of great importance that we know that faith is not just confessions. It is not just believing but a fire in your spirit taking from the word of God when you meditate in it.

When faith does not have its source in the word of God, then it is fake and capable of bringing shame. The word of God is the source of genuine faith that cannot fail. The ignorance of this is the reason for the frustration in the body of Christ today. People think they have faith when they do not. The word of God could come to you through someone preaching the word. It could be through reading and meditating on the word of God or reading books written by men of the Holy Spirit. It is the Spirit from the Word that ignites faith.

To receive faith through the word is not just by reading but by meditating and seeking to know the truth. This is meditating in the word till the spirit of the word jumps on you (John 6:63; John 10:34-35). This is reading with an eye for solution. When your heart has taken faith from the word of God, everyone around you will know. It will generate and transmit strength into your spirit. You will be too ready to disgrace the devil in your situation. No one will need to tell you that you have faith, you will know it yourself. Even the devil will be afraid of you.

Friend, it is time to search the scripture to build up faith that will terminate the challenges of your life. You are already a victor; you only need to take faith from the word and your victory will manifest (1 John 5:4).

Prayer: Lord, deliver the word for my victory to me.

“WHEN FAITH COMES, VICTORY WILL NATURALLY FOLLOW”
