DON'T BLAME GOD

  DON’T BLAME GOD James 1:12-20 Devotional:- “And remember, when you are being tempted, do not say, "God is tempting me." God is never tempted to do wrong, and he never tempts anyone else” (V. 13) NLT Today, there is so much confusion the enemy places in the heart of men to make them feel that God hate them. So, when people are under the pressure of the flesh to sin, they say “God is tempting me”. When people are weak, they are going to face temptation through their flesh. It wil be wrong to say God is tempting you with sickness or troubles. Yes, God knows about it but He only allows it when we have been warned repeatedly and we refuse to change. He disciplines, but it is necessary for us to know that God is not the author of evil, that is the work of the devil (Hebrews 12:6; Matthew 4:24).  There is a difference between a test and temptation. To test means to examine or observe if someone is capable of doing something. To tempt means to entice or lure someone into doing some...

MANTLE

MANTLE 

2 Kings 2:9-15
Devotional:- “Then he took the mantle of Elijah that had fallen from him, and struck the water, and said, "Where is the LORD God of Elijah?" And when he also had struck the water, it was divided this way and that; and Elisha crossed over” (V.14) NKJV

   

     It is necessary to note that the mysteries of God look so ordinary to people of no understanding. Some of the things that have kept us from the power of God are religion, tradition, and human philosophy. For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved, it is the power of God (1 Corinthians 1:8). One of such neglected vessels of power is the mantle. These are materials that have contacted the anointing of God having contacted the anointed. The anointing flows when a Spirit-filled believer allows the Holy Spirit to flow through them.

You need to know that God’s anointing can be likened to perfume, oil, or electricity current. That is why whatever the anointed man touches can carry a portion of the anointing. Understand that the anointing is transferable by relationship (Proverbs 13:20). The handkerchief of Elijah that dropped became the vessel of miracles. Also, the woman with the issue of blood touched the cloth of Jesus and was healed (Matthew 9:20-22). Paul’s handkerchief was also sent to heal people (Act 19:11-12).

Do not despise these mysteries. Locate the anointed men of God and tap into this grace in their lives. These are men who carry the presence of God always with evidence of signs and wonders. Anytime you need healing or a miracle, stand or sit where your pastor stands or sits by faith. And you shall be delivered. Whatever the mantle touches come back to life (2 Kings 13:20-21). When this is done by faith you are too sure of your miracle.

Prayer: Lord, grant me a simple heart to live by faith

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

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.

COURAGE

COURAGE Joshua 1:1-9 Devotional:- “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go” (V. 9) NKJV      A major reason why many people are weak is because their level of courage is so low, that it cannot sustain them through to success. So they easily give up when faced with challenges. There is need for us to understand that there is no action that will not attract a reaction. So the only answer is courage.
