GOOD REPORT

  GOOD REPORT   Proverbs 15:28-33 Devotional:- “The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, And a good report makes the bones healthy” (v.30) NKJV Today, in the whole world, the only kind of news celebrated by men is bad news. The reporters have also realised that people want bad news. So, they hardly report good things. If you listen to the news, read from the media or browse through the net, it is all about evil things happening all over the world. This is the trick of the enemy to cage the sons of men into sorrow and break the flow of joy in the lives of the people. The scripture we read today says, “good report makes the heart glad”. You must recognise the principle of a joyful life. It is a product of regular joyful reports (Proverbs 25:25). It is what you love to hear that your life will look like (Mark 4:24). you must know you are a product of what you are hearing. Friend, this demands that you should be careful of what you hear if you want to live in joy. A sorrowful rep...

HEIRS OF GOD

HEIRS OF GOD

Galatians 4:1-7
Devotional:- “Therefore you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ” (V. 7) NKJV

    A slave is different from a son. A son bears the name of his father and has access to the father and all that he has. But it is not so with the slave. You hardly see the son of a great man suffering except he is not a legal son or disobedient to his father. The truth is that you are not to suffer as a Son of God. It is not your portion to be sick, fail, or be sorrowful. It is so in the life of many children of God because, though they are heirs of God, they refuse to grow to be sons. This is not gender-based but maturity-based.

The scripture we read today says the heir is not different from a slave as long as he is a child (Galatians 4:3-4). Though he owns all things, he is under the control of others. At such a time, even the slave could determine and control his life. That is why many Christians today are not in control of many good things in life.

Friend, the scripture is the book of truth. The truth refers to you as the heir of God. But you have to grow to maturity and become a son from a child. That is when you will be bold to take your place in Christ. What makes you grow in Christ is your fellowship with God through His word. That is, daily taking the word of God as food (Luke 4:7). Your fellowship with God in prayers, your fellowship with the church (Hebrew 10:25), and your obedience to God’s instructions are important. Let your fellowship with God be with meditation.

If you remain a child in God, it is a trick of the enemy to deprive you of your heritage in Christ. Don’t be a distant child from God; you will be suffering like the world (Psalms 82:5-8). Stop behaving like a bastard. Grow up in Christ, and your heritage shall fall into your hands. Wake up!

PRAYER: LORD, HELP ME TO ALWAYS FELLOWSHIP MEDITATIVELY WITH YOU TO GROW UP.

“YOUR GROWTH IN THE LORD DETERMINES YOUR STRENGTH FOR EXPLOITS ON THE EARTH.”
