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.

STRENGTH

Proverb 24:1-5
Devotional:- “A wise man is strong Yea a man of knowledge increaseth strength” KJV

    Victory in the world belongs only to strong people. Strength is in different dimensions. Someone may be strong financially, and another may be strong politically. Someone else may be strong socially, and someone else may be strong physically. But do you know that all of these are not strong enough to overcome in this world? Yes, they could go to some length, but they have their limitations. To be strong enough to overcome, you need spiritual strength. This is the Supreme strength. This controls all other forms of strength.

Solomon in his wisdom was able to discover the primary requirement of Spiritual Strength. So also, was Daniel and the disciples. What gives access to spiritual strength is knowledge of God (Daniel 11:32). This will make you increase in strength. In the School of the Spirit, the more you know, the stronger you will be. Knowledge here does not refer to your degree or certificate but having contact with the understanding of God’s word by revelation (John 8:32). Knowledge of God builds our confidence because it produces faith in us (Romans 10:17).

You can enter this school of the spirit as you study God’s word and books written by men of God, who have contacted the deep things of God. Anytime the Holy Spirit sees you making yourself available to seek knowledge, He will always be there to teach you. It is this knowledge that will promote you spiritually. It infused in you the strength of heaven to reign on earth.

The level of your knowledge of God’s word equips your Spirit and determines the strength of the power you can release. For example, someone calls the name of Jesus, and the devil trembles and another person call Him and is wounded by the devil (Act 19:14-16). The difference is knowledge or how acquainted they were with the Lord. Since you physically grow daily, you must also grow spiritually. Then your victory and success will be ascertained. You will get there.

PRAYER: LORD, GIVE ME A PASSION FOR YOUR WORD

“IT IS A RISK TO GROW IN AGE WITHOUT GROWING IN KNOWLEDGE”

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.
