PRESENCE OF GOD

PRESENCE OF GOD  Psalm 16:5-11 Devotional:- “You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore” (v.11) NKJV As good as joy is, one of the greatest tasks of joy is sustaining it. So the world always finds it difficult to sustain. Many cannot even experience it for more than two hours per week. This is because they have not located the source of joy. As a believer, you need to know that joy is a product of the presence of God. Wherever God’s presence is, our scripture today says joy will fill the place. It means the oxygen and the hydrogen of the atmosphere of God are joy. So you cannot be in His presence and not know joy. No wonder David said he is always glad when it is time to go to the house of the Lord. (Psalm 122:1). To experience the presence of the Lord, you need to be filled with the Holy Spirit, and then His presence will be within you. You also need to believe that He is with you according to His word.

HEAVENLY PLACES

Ephesians 1:16-23
Devotional:- “which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places” (V. 20) NKJV

   The Bible says that we are seated in heavenly places, which means we are far above the reach of the forces of the earth. This simply talks about your status in Christ. This emphasizes the gap that exists between you and the forces that rule the earth. We all can understand that heaven is extremely far above the earth, and so is your level to the forces of the earth.

You must be careful to know that no matter the power or forces the enemy is displaying, Jesus, whom you are seated with, is the chief of it. The Bible called Jesus the head of principalities and powers (Colossians 2:10), not in terms of participation but of dominion. His rulership is spread wide over others. No matter the evil power that operates around you, Jesus made you to be authority over them, because He is in you. That is why at the mention of the name of Jesus, all kneels must bow.

You need to know as a believer that you are seated with Christ in the heavenly places (Ephesians 2:6). Christ is there for your sake. It will be totally out of place if for any reason you mingle with the people of the power lower than yours. Never be afraid of them; they cannot stand He that is in you (I John 4:4). Settle down to know where you belong. Refuse to allow earthly circumstances to trouble you. And your life shall carry the heavenly power and glory.

DECLARATION: I AM SITED IN THE HEAVENLY PLACES ABOVE THE REACH OF ALL EARTHLY TROUBLES IN JESUS NAME.

“HE THAT IS FROM ABOVE IS ABOVE ALL”

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.

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.
