PROTECTING YOUR CHURCH’S FAMILY

  PROTECTING YOUR CHURCH’S FAMILY James 3:13-18 Devotional:- “Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace” (V. 18) Understanding that the second purpose of God for man is to belong to the church family, there is therefore a strong need for you to protect the unity of your church. Unity is the soul of fellowship. Nothing on earth is more valuable to God than the church because he paid the highest price for it and He wants to protect it. For you to be able to protect the unity of your church, you need to focus on what you have in common and not your differences (Rom 14:19). God wants unity and not uniformity. God made our differences and that should be respected. We must not let our differences divide us. To protect the unity of your church you must be realistic in your expectations from people. Don’t over expect. We need to give up the thought that the church should be perfect and admit that we all are not perfect people but people that wants to be perfec...

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”
