GIFT AND GRACE

  GIFT AND GRACE Romans 12:3-8 Devotional:- “We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith”(V. 6) NIV   One of the means through which we can demonstrate our love to others is by using the grace and the gifts that are in our lives. As a child of God, you are privileged to enjoy two levels of gifts. The first are the talents and gifts. The second are the gifts of the Holy Spirit. There is no one who is not talented in one area or the other. It may be to cook, sing, design, draw or write. It could also be in the area of sport or decoration. But as a child of God, there is another dimension of gifts in your life given by the Holy Spirit. These are gifts of prophecy, healing, knowledge, wisdom, working of miracles, discernment of spirit, diverse tongues or interpretation of tongues (1 Corinthians 12:6-10). If you don’t know that you have any of this gift, it is because you have not care...

GREATER THAN

GREATER THAN

I John 4:3-6
Devotional:-" ...and have overcome...because He who is in you is greater than He who is in the world." (V. 4)

    It should be very clear what the terms of your victory are. In the spirit realm, there are just two forces and not more than that. They are the forces of the devil and the forces of God. These are the only oppositions that exist in the spiritual realm, and there is no other party. The issue of who is stronger does not call for debate, as all know the great and strong one. And that is the living God. God created even the devil himself but fell by the curse of God on him (Isaiah 14:12–15). 

Are Any of these two forces that rule your life determines your victory. Since you have chosen Jesus to be your Lord and your Saviour, you have chosen the spirit of God. That is why darkness that is of the devil cannot overcome you since you are a light (John 1:5). You are therefore going to continue to be a victor because greater is He that is in you than He that lives in the world.

Friend, since you carry a greater God in you, stop looking at the power of the devil as though more powerful. It is the spirit in a man that determines his class. You are not in the class of the devil, so stop being afraid of him (Psalms 8:5–6). The greater one is inside you. And the Bible says, "If God be for us, who can be against us?” (Romans 8:3 1). That statement is a question, and no one has ever responded to say, ‘I will’. They have not given birth to such one. See you are too much for the devil. Even when you are lying down, he is afraid to come close to you, and how much more when you stand. That is why you need to keep growing your spiritual muscles in the word. And you will always overcome.

Prayer: Lord, strengthen me by your word for my daily victory.

“SINCE YOU CARRY THE GREAT ONE IN YOU, YOU WILL ALWAYS WIN”
