HOPE Psalm 42:1-11 Devotional:- “Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God; For I shall yet praise Him, The help of my countenance and my God” (v.11) NKJV If any man will experience sustaining joy, he must first be hopeful. Hope is the strength of joy. Hope is the reason for the coming joy. It is an expectation according to the will of God. It is an assurance of a coming joy (Hebrews 12:2). It is also the strength of faith (Hebrews 11:1). If there is no hope, there may also not be joy, but a man of hope will continue in joy. Oftentimes, we observe the current happenings around us, and it looks like there is no hope. The truth is that current events are not the determining factor for our tomorrow. God’s word says we cannot compare the suffering of now to the glory that is coming (Romans 8:18). The truth is that no hope can be genuine till it has a sure and certain promise. This is a promise that cannot fail, and that is why our hope should be in...

PEACE

PEACE

John 14:27-30
Devotional:- “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid” (V. 27) NKJV

    In the school of faith, the level of your peace determines the strength of your faith. That is why the Bible says that quietness and confidence shall be your strength (Isaiah 30:15). Part of our heritage in Christ is peace. This peace is given to us by the Spirit of the prince of peace in us. The prince of peace is Jesus Christ (Isaiah 9:6). When there is peace within you, there will be peace around you. The peace within commands the peace without.

In the realm of the spirit, a peaceful man is a strong man. An example is what you see in the barking of a dog. No matter how terrible a dog might be, the moment you are at peace, it considers you superior. Dogs can always make an attempt to attack but when they are met with unshaken minds, they quickly retreat but a fearful man is prey. It takes a man of peace to command peace.

This is exactly the way the devil operates. The first angel he often sent ahead of himself is the angel of fear. Fear will give birth to doubt, and doubt will make you lose all heavenly support (James 1:6-8). No matter what may be happening to you, retain your peace. Even in the face of riffle, how much more sickness, examination, interview, or any form assignment in the office. Never allow any accidental event or anyone to steal your peace. It is your strongest foundation to faith for victory. Learn to operate in the peace of God always. God’s word says you have been given, don't let any situation embarrass you again. Only put your total trust in God.

The peace we have received is not our making. It is of Christ and it is given us. Always thank God for His peace in your life and around you. Go out in peace. Do your business in peace of mind and come back home daily in peace. Then the Holy Spirit will be at His full manifestation in your life.

DECLARATION: I HAVE PEACE OF GOD WITHIN AND AROUND ME. NOTHING SHALL TROUBLE MY LIFE.

“THE STATE OF YOUR MIND DETERMINES THE STATE OF YOUR LIFE.”
