GOOD SHEPHERD

  GOOD SHEPHERD John 10:11-16  Devotional:- "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gave his life for the sheep”. (V. 11) Shepherds are one of the most caring people on earth. They value the lives of the sheep. They risk their life many times to save the life of the sheep. They follow the sheep wherever they go and lead them To green grass where they enjoy fresh food for their nourishment (Psalms 23:1-6). Their presence comforts and secures the sheep. They cannot tolerate the loss of any of them. So they watch over it so dearly. If anyone is missing, they take pains to look for it till they find it, and when it is found, they celebrate it (Luke 15:4-7). So also is the love of Jesus to you. He is your good shepherd. That is why He laid down His life for you. He died that you might live. He cares for you (I Peter 5:7). He cannot afford to see you in suffering. Whatever you are passing through now is for your glory (Romans 8:18). Everything shall turn to your testimony (Luke...

GOD IN YOU


GOD IN YOU

1 Corinthians 3:11-23
Devotional:- “Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?” (v. 16) NKJV

    The word of God says we are the temple of God. A temple is a house where a deity stays and there is worship. God made man to work through us to fulfill His plan on the earth. As a Spirit being, it will be out of place for God to operate in this world without man so also the devil. At creation, God put Himself into the dust and that is what makes Adam a living being (Genesis 2:7). Man, ignorantly allowed the devil to use him and the devil took over the rulership of the world from Adam (Luke 4:6, 2 Corinthians 4:4). God promised that the seed of the woman will defeat the devil (Genesis 3:15).

This is the reason Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8). As many as have accepted Jesus into their lives, the Spirit of Jesus is in them. That is the reason nothing will be able to stop you. So, you are the temple of God and God is in you. What is most important is for you to realize this and allow the Holy Spirit in you to rule your mind and life. This is by letting Him guide all you do (Romans 8:14). God will use you for His glory in this world.

You therefore need to know that what becomes of you as a child of God is up to you. You have to choose to allow the Spirit of God in you to direct your life or the flesh through the five senses (Romans 8:13). Take instructions from the Holy Spirit in you and obey Him by faith. And you will see your life moving in a supernatural dimension from now in Jesus name.

Prayer: Lord, give me the courage to step into my situation by your instructions.

“IF GOD IS IN YOU, THEN YOU CAN NOT FAIL”
