  PROMISES Isaiah 55:1-13  Devotional:- “So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it” (V.11) NKJV One thing that is common with lovers are promises. It is part of what a true lover will want to hear. To a true lover, a promise is like a cheque capable of turning into cash. So when people who love us promise us, we cherish the promises. And when we remember them, it gladdens our heart. We even sometime feel happy enough to share it with other friends. One other terrible thing that is common with people is failing to fulfill promises. That is why it will be unwise to marry someone based on mare promises. These failure in promises of people, in some cases, are due to the inadequacy of human strength, or unforeseen circumstances that can overtake the promises, so the promised often feel deceived. But God is not like man. He will fulfill all that He ha...

MEEKNESS

MEEKNESS

Numbers 12:1-9
Devotional:- “Now the man Moses was very meek, above all the men which were upon the face of the earth” (V3) KJV

    The most vital aspect of faith is for man to yield to God’s instructions. God wants us to obey Him by faith. This is a level of honour to God. If Moses did not obey God, he would not have seen all the miracles he saw in Egypt and the wilderness. If the priests had not obeyed to step into Jordan by faith, the water would not have parted for them (Joshua 3:13).

 If Peter had not obeyed Jesus to launch his net into the deep, he would not have seen the miracle of many fishes (Luke 5: 1-10). If the disciples did not obey Jesus to fetch water as commanded, they would not have seen the miracle wine (John 2: 1 -10). If anyone does not obey God’s instruction, he may not see the glory of God.

The grace for obedience is embedded in meekness. We therefore need meekness to enjoy the working power of God. Meekness will help us to look away from the shame and mockery of men when God instructs (Philippians 2:5-10). Please, ask for the grace of meekness and God will give you. Meekness is tenderness to submit to God’s instruction (Psalms 25:9). The meek will inherit the earth (Matthew 5:5). Why? They know how to walk with God. Man, and God’s levels are too far and distant to walk by mere reasoning but meekness is the link (Isaiah 55:8-9). Peace!

Prayer: Lord, give me the spirit of meekness.

“MAN PLUS MEEKNESS IS EQUAL TO GOD’S MANIFESTATION”
