STRENGTH IN GOD

STRENGTH IN GOD 2 Corinthians 10:1-6 Devotional:- “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds” (V4) NKJV      Many Christians today have so much confusion about their strength in God. It has made the church think that a few limited people can demonstrate the strength of God. So, multitudes are weak in strength. Though they come to church, yet in times of challenges, you see them rushing to another Christian whom they know to be stronger in God. Neglecting the fact that a New Testament believer is a potential priest and king for Christ (Revelation 5:10; Mark 16:17).

FEAR OF GOD

FEAR OF GOD

Genesis 39:7-16
Devotional:- “There is no one greater in this house than I, nor has he kept back anything from me but you, because you are his wife. How then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?” (v.9) NKJV

    Wherever the Holy Spirit is, He has seven major dimensions by which he manifests if He is allowed. One of the dimensions is putting in the believer the Spirit of the fear of God. This is not a fear of God because He is wicked but because we know His greatness, love, and we love Him. Do you know that because a man loves his wife, he will not always like to do what offends her except for correction, which is even to be done in love? So also believers operate in the fear of God because he loves the Lord (John 14:23). If you see a believer rising and falling, it is because the fear of God is not in place. It is because the Spirit of God is not allowed to operate in his/her life.

As for you, I know you will not hinder the Holy Spirit from working in you. Solomon described the fear of God as the first step to wisdom (Proverbs 9:10). This is because whatever is against God’s will, will not stand (Proverbs 21:30). People could think that stealing is gaining, but the truth is that such will attract the destruction of God (Proverbs 13:11). That is why you must activate God’s Spirit in you by asking in prayers.

If Joseph had slept with that woman, do you know that the woman could rent a duplex for him outside, to continue the relationship and to keep it from the husband? Then Joseph would not have been in prison nor have found the man who introduced him to the palace (Genesis 39-40) Watch out! Don’t think it is smart to continue in sin (Romans 6:1). You need to activate the Spirit of the fear of the Lord in you. And you shall be able to get to your place in Jesus name.

PRAYER: LORD, LET THE SPIRIT OF THE FEAR OF THE LORD BE AT WORK IN MY LIFE.

“THE FEAR OF GOD IS THE FOUNDATION TO ALL LASTING RISING”

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.

FRUITFULNESS

FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV      One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans?  If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.

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.
