PROOF OF GOD

  PROOF OF GOD I John 4:12-16 Devotional:- “No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us…”(V. 12) So many people today prove to be Godly. This is because it is becoming a noble thing to be Godly. This is the effect of the expansion of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. But many people have been trapped and disappointed by depending on the so-called Christian Brother or Sister syndrome. This is because we expect everyone who professes to be Christian and born again to just be honest and faithful. So we conclude on them because they are members orelders or pastors of the church.  But the Bible did not tell us that we will know them by their name or attendance in the church, but by their fruits (Matthew 7:15- 21). No man can give what he does not have. Anytime he wants to do so, he will give you frustration. What, therefore, is the proof of Godliness? It is love. If you observe the fruits of the spirit in the Bible, it is number one (Galatians 5:22). The scr...

SPIRITUAL DRYNESS

Judges 16:18-28
Devotional"= However, the hair of his head began to grow again after it had been shaven” (V.22) NKJV

    A man who is strong and deep in faith could sometimes have spiritual dryness. This is a period when faith seems to have vanished, A period when you as a leader want to read your Bible and it looks as if it is all erased. You wouldn’t even see any revelation in it. A period when you want to spend a good time praying and you end up thinking and pondering upon your problems. Prayer time becomes boring, and in such time, it could seem better for you to sleep than to pray. Your mind becomes so empty and carries no power to impart no one. No one likes to witness such a season but it does happen. You only need to know how to avoid and get out of such a situation.

Samson a mighty man of God, having revealed the secret of his power to a woman put his life in danger of death. The hair he was divinely instructed not to cut was shaven and he lost his might. This made him a victim of his enemy. But the hair later began to grow again. This is the restoration of life and anointing.

When we begin to give more time to the work of God than the God of the work, we are opening doors to spiritual dryness. When we have no time to pray, to eat the bread of life (The word of God) and we disobey the Holy Spirit at will. At such times, God will see the need to withdraw a little from us to make us see our inability without Him; So that we might run back to Him. This also happens to David the king (Psalm 51:7-12).

At such times, please set time aside to be with God. Let Him know you are nothing without Him and that you are willing to be back (John 15:5). Ask for a renewal of the Spirit and God will answer your prayer. The hair of your spirit will begin to grow again. Please avoid these lapses, the enemy can take advantage of them to fulfill his desires. Don’t forget that God is still with you, He has promised never to leave you no matter what. Stop being afraid, He is by your side, your strength is restored from now in Jesus name.

PRAYER: LORD, RESTORE UNTO ME THE JOY OF THY SALVATION.

“EVERY DRY SEASON WILL ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED BY A HEAVY RAINY SEASON”.

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.
