NEW THING

NEW  THING Isaiah 43:18-21  Devotional:- “For I'm going to do a brand-new thing. See, I have already begun! Don't you see it? I will make a road through the wilderness of the world for my people to go home, and create rivers for them in the desert!? (V.19) TLB      Sometimes we make the mistake of basing our faith not on the word of God but upon our experiences. Many of us do not know that faith will always be weak in us when we allow it to attend the school of experience. That is, we weigh it or compare it with what we’ve gone through in the past. Then it becomes doubt. I know you might have gone through all kinds of experiences in the past years. You have prayed, and nothing happened. You have waited only to see nothing. Yet you will need to believe God afresh for a new experience in this year.

TAKING THE WORD

TAKING THE WORD

Ephesians 6:1 0-18
Devotional:- “And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the spirit which is the word of God” (V. 17)

    God’s children today need to know that faith is a work and we need to labour to enjoy its manifestation (Hebrew 4:11). We will need to labour

To enter into our rest in God. Faith is that labour. We need to know for instance, faith will not just be there in our hearts and we need to learn how to generate it. If not, it could fail. Just like a power-generating set cannot supply energy until it has generated it, so is our faith. It has to be generated to deliver.

To generate faith demands that you take the word. That is, you consciously sit to locate God’s word that addresses your situation and meditate on how it solves the problem. This is because faith comes from the word of God (Romans 10:17). The word that transports faith in many cases is the word God speaks into your spirit. It takes obedience to the word to deliver a sure result. When you receive a word from God, and then meditate on it you will find a quickening power of the word active in your heart (Joshua 1:8). At such time you are also sure your result shall be a success.

When you face a challenge, the first thing to take is the word. The first question to ask is, Lord, what do I do? That is why your spiritual ear must be sensitive to hear God in every situation. Don’t wait to train to hear God only when there is a need. This you should do in every situation. Then you will be used to it (Proverbs 3:5-6). Your ear of the spirit will be opened when you create time regularly to fellowship with God with an open mind. When you can get this right, you will surely get the expected result. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, help me to always hear the word in my situation.

“UNTIL YOU HAVE THE WORD FOR THE SITUATION, YOU ARE NOT IN CONTROL”

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.

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.
