STRENGTH IN GOD

STRENGTH IN GOD 2 Corinthians 10:1-6 Devotional:- “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds” (V4) NKJV      Many Christians today have so much confusion about their strength in God. It has made the church think that a few limited people can demonstrate the strength of God. So, multitudes are weak in strength. Though they come to church, yet in times of challenges, you see them rushing to another Christian whom they know to be stronger in God. Neglecting the fact that a New Testament believer is a potential priest and king for Christ (Revelation 5:10; Mark 16:17).

SACRIFICE OF FAITH

SACRIFICE OF FAITH

Genesis 22:1-14
Devotional:- “And Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to slay his son” (V.10)

    Until men are ready to follow God at all costs, we may not yet see His best (Isaiah 1:19) NIV. Was Abraham mad? No, he was not. He was just willing to follow God no matter what it may cost.

God suddenly called him one day that he should take the only son he had waited for a hundred years and sacrifice him unto Him. Even though Abraham had waited so long to have Isaac yet, he knew God was not wicked but only wanted to show him another miracle he had never seen before. He concluded that God was able to raise Isaac back to life and he was willing to see the miracle of resurrection for the first time in his life (Hebrew 11:17–19). He knew God had said in Isaac shall your seed be called, so he concluded it must be time for a miracle.

Friend, what is God asking you to sacrifice? He can be replaced a thousand times. See, until your sacrifice of faith goes to God; His real treasure may not open unto you. Abraham stepped out by faith and you can step out by faith also. When Abraham did, he stepped into the covenant of greatness. You are about to step into yours. Don’t let any material hold down your destiny. God will surely test each of us by asking us to lay down something. It is only people who are willing to lay down that can pick up their greatness in God. No matter how the instruction may be, step out by faith and God will step in.

Prayer: Lord, strengthen me to step out to obey you.

MASTER’S MINAS

MASTER’S MINAS Luke 19:11-27 Devotional:- “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come” (V. 13) NKJV      The word of God instructs us to do business. The Bible did not advise us to do business but it commanded us. That is why it would be wrong for you and me to be without a business. That makes idleness a crime against self (1 Thessalonians 4:11). Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.

FRUITFULNESS

FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV      One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans?  If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
