  SPIRIT OF JOY Galatians 5:16-26 “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness” (v.22) NKJV For all men to experience an ever-flowing joy, we must first possess the spirit of joy. God is the source of joy. When He is in a man, He brings His joy along (Psalm 16:11). Since God is a Spirit, He can only be with men by dwelling in them. When the spirit of God dwells in a man, he will experience unlimited joy. One of the most neglected exercises in the church is people receiving the Holy Spirit. Most Christians look for one excuse or the other to neglect the Holy Spirit in their life. Sometimes people feel the Holy Spirit is not that necessary. Some people feel it is an old way of following the Lord. But you need to know that if you lack the Spirit of God, God’s word says that you are none of His own (Romans 8:9). Friend, it will be wisdom for you to set aside time to ask and be filled with the Spirit of Christ. When you are filled wit...

YOUR COMPANY

YOUR COMPANY

2 Kings 6:8-23
Devotional:- “So he answered, "Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them” (V. 16) NKJV

    If you do not have the right company around you, the devil will help you compose one. All of us have to be spiritually conscious that some spiritual forces are always around us (Exodus 33:14, Psalms 91:11). We know this by our feelings because we are also spiritual beings. It is only the body we live in that has limited us to be able to have a physical view of them. But then, you need to know that you are the one who determines the forces that stand around you.

In the scripture we read today, Elisha the man of God received God’s revelations of what the enemy was planning and will always reveal it to the king. This was bringing great victory for the nation of Israel. The enemy was not happy and then planned to arrest the man of God. When the army came, his servant was afraid, but he quickly helped him to see the forces with them and he too gained confidence. All you need to build faith and confidence in the pursuit of your assignment is to see God’s presence with you always (Psalms 16:8)

Friend, you determine the forces around you by what you imagine. If what you see in your mind is the presence of the Lord and His host, the enemy dare not come near you. But if you always see devil, demon, and evil in your mind you will always have what you see (Titus 1:15). You can just set yourself free from those nightmares and daymares by changing your mind to agree with the word of God that God is with you (Psalms 23:4). Be careful of the films you watch and books you read. These are what determine your imagination. Now you are stepping into peace in Jesus' name.

Prayer: Lord, open my eyes to see you with me always.
