DESTROYING DELAY

DESTROYING DELAY I Samuel 1:9-20 Devotional:- “And it happened, as she continued praying before the LORD, that Eli watched her mouth” (V.12) NKJV      Sometimes in the life of a child God, there could come a time of delay. This is when God’s promises seem foot-dragging, and expectations are not fulfilled when expected. When you have been praying about some situations and nothing seems to change. Sometimes such periods defy all kinds of wisdom and if care is not taken such a person’s faith could become cold. Such times are for you to grow strong enough to receive and retain your inheritance in God.

JILTED LOVE

JILTED LOVE

II Samuel 13:7-18
Devotional:- “Then Amnon hated her exceedingly, so that the hatred with which he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her. And Amnon said to her, "Arise, be gone!” (V. 15) NKJV

    Today many people in the world have become victims of love that has been turned to hatred. The best of friends sometimes can become the worst enemies. Some marriages that started full of love have turned bitter. Many couples have rendered their marriage vows null and void. Some spouses have allowed the third party to destroy their relationship. And someone is always a victim of such evil.

Ammon the son David demonstrated immaturity in operating fake love. This kind of love is called infatuation or lust. This is what young people always mistake for love. But the end of it is often hatred. The reason why there are many jilted loves today is because the foundation of most love affairs is not sure (Psalm 11:3). The foundation is mostly infatuation and insincerity. It is a product of the indiscipline of the sexual urge. Instead of dealing with this weakness, some assume sleeping around will solve it. That was what killed Samson and brought Solomon down.

Many spouses also give in to the devil to allow a third party to break their love. This is often due to the carelessness of one who may be playing a foolish game till it turns around to be a trouble. If anyone is a victim of jilted love, let him make Jesus his or her lover. Make Him your friend. Let Him redirect your life. Forgive the one that jilted you for your peace to be established. Then make yourself available for the service of God. And the Lord will recognize your life. He will turn around your life. And you will have testimonies.

PRAYER: LORD, RESTORE YOUR PEACE AND LOVE TO MY HEART.

“THE GREATEST LOVE CAN BE FOUND IN JESUS”

ONLY THE VICTORS Revelation 21:1-8 Devotional:- “He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son” (v. 7) NKJV      In this part of the world, many are not so used to taking responsibility over challenges. Instead of been proactive to foresee and prevent issues, people are used to looking out for whom to blame and who should help out (Proverbs 14:23). It is vivid that we are in a challenging season. It is also clear that we are drawing closer to the end of the age.

THE GRACIOUS Exodus 34:1-8 Devotional:- “…The Lord, the Lord a God merciful and gracious, long-suffering and abundance in goodness and truth” (V.6) AMPL      For believers of this Generation to have the fullness of heaven as the word of God promised, they will need to have the right understanding of who our God is. It is the wrong concept of God that has limited the exploitation of Christians and made many lives wrongly. God’s word says those who know their God shall be strong (Daniel 11:32). If you will be stronger than your challenges you must know your God.

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.
