A CHOSEN PEOPLE

A CHOSEN PEOPLE Deuteronomy 7:4-11 Devotional:- “…the Lord your God has chosen you to be a people for Himself a special treasure above all the peoples on the face of the earth…” (V.6)      The basic challenge we are facing that does not make us understand our new position in Christ is that of misunderstanding how we become a child of God. Because we do not understand what it takes, many don’t even value it. So they easily throw it off their mind. Many today are not holding on to their faith and are easily discouraged simply because they lack understanding of the richness of their choice. Some also put up some pride and some show up because they think they were qualified.

LACK OF HELP

LACK OF HELP

Psalm 121:1-8
Devotional:- “I look up to the mountains- does my help come from there?” (V. 1) NLT

    God has not created man to succeed alone. He created us to need each other. And that is where help comes in. No man can achieve or attain anything without the help of God. No one can truly receive help from others unless God approves it for them (II Kings 6:27).

The statement of King David that we read today shows that he needed help and was looking to the mountains for help. Many people often don’t find help when they need it. Some don’t even know who to turn to at all, yet it is not the plan of God that we lack help.

To begin to enjoy the help of God, stop looking at the mountains for help. The mountain here represents people you know or the connections you have made for yourself. It also means having confidence in people. If you make people the focus of your help, you will always be disappointed. God should be the focus of our help. He will indeed use men, yet we should not see these men as the source of our help but God.

So, start to turn to Him in prayer, asking for His help and you will go out to begin to meet the help of Cod in your ways. Stop depending on men, start looking unto God for help. Soon your help shall be daily till you become great in Jesus name. (I Chronicles 12:22).

PRAYER: LORD, LET THERE BE DAILY HELP FOR ME FROM NOW.

“GOD IS THE SOURCE; MAN IS ONLY A MEANS”

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.

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.

THE GRACIOUS

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.
