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.

STORM

Matthew 8:23-27
Devotional:- “But He said to them, "Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?" Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.” (V. 26) NKJV

    Sometimes in the life of people, stormy situations could arise. This is often a period of total confusion. A period that the enemy wants to take advantage of. For one reason or the other, there could just be one form of problem or another all around. And it looks as if life is at the endpoint of life. It is a time when it looks as if it is finished for you. At such a time people may desert you and it may look as if you are the only one facing challenges on earth. In such a period many people ask: “God where is your face?” And we ask if He is still alive. Little do we realize that when a situation begins to turn so bad, it is just about to turn good. I don’t know what the situation is like with you, your work, family, finances, or academics. This happens to people when they see more of their situation and not the power of God available to them.

The disciples of Jesus had also faced stormy situations before. Though Jesus was in the boat, the disciples lost sight of Him. It is a period to test us before our triumph. The enemy is aware of the glory ahead of us and wants to see if he can frustrate us and turn us against God before the release of that glory (Romans 6:18-20). All you need to do in this kind of situation is to keep your eye on Jesus as your saviour (Hebrews 12:2). He will save you and preserve your glorious future; knowing that He shall fulfill them. Then settle down in your heart to see the force of God and His power around you. Always speak the word of God by faith to the situation. This will grow your faith, and then start to rebuke the storms one by one. Soon, there shall be great calm all around you. The enemy is only trying your faith. You will win at last and men shall marvel at your God.

PRAYER: LORD, STRENGTHEN MY FAITH TO SEE MY CALMNESS.

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.
