GROWING

  GROWING Ephesians 4:9-16 Devotional:- “But, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head of Christ” (V. 15) God’s plan and desire is that we grow up. So many Christian today are growing older but not growing up. Many are stocked in perpetual spiritual infancy. This is because they never intend to grow. Spiritual growth is not automatic, it takes intentional commitment. You must want to grow, decide to grow, make an effort and persist in growing. Discipleship is the process of becoming like Christ (Matthew 10:25). In your spiritual growth, God has a part and you have a part. To be Christ-like you will need to make Christ like choices and depend on the Holy Spirit to help you fulfill those choices. The moment you are ready, you will need to let go of some old routines and develop some new habits. You will need to intentionally change the way you are thinking (Philippians 2:12-13). To work out your salvation with fear and trembling means to take you...

NEW COVENANT

NEW COVENANT

Luke 22:15-20
Devotional:- “Likewise He also took the cup after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is shed for you” (V. 20) NKJV.

    Believers in Christ are the people of the new covenant. They enjoy the new order of covenant with God. That is why the Bible has two parts. The Old and the New Testament. The word testament means covenant. Under the old covenant, which is of the law, humanity has been brought under a great yoke. That is why God saw it as faulty, and organized to establish the new (Hebrews 8:8). Under the old covenant, the devil has taken so much advantage of many people. Part of the Old Testament is that any soul that sins shall die (Ezekiel 18:4). Whoever sins is of the devil (1 John 3:8). Under this, the devil has caged the multitude into covenant bondages, which gave him legal right. So he has deceived so many people into covenant bondage ignorantly when they come to request anything from him.

The covenant operating upon some doesn’t make them prosper. So many people have been dedicated to demons by covenant. Some have been given spiritual spouses by covenant. So many are troubled by forces of darkness with bad dreams nightmares, and much more.

The truth is that Jesus has become the mediator of a new covenant (Hebrews 9:11-18, 8:6). That is why He offered Himself as a sacrifice and shed his blood to put the new covenant in place. All covenants are sealed with blood (Hebrews 9:18). He shed His blood for us (Luke 22:20). And the Holy Communion table is a symbol of our part in the new covenant (John 6:53).

As a new covenant child, the old has passed away in your life. Don’t let the devil tie you down to the old. The blood of Jesus has broken the former no matter who did it on your behalf. The blood of Jesus has given you access to better things in life (Hebrews 12: 24). So, you are not part of the old order in your family or society. These are what have passed away in your life (2 Corinthians 5:17). Renounce the covenant in the name of Jesus (Philippians 2:9-10). Cover your spirit, soul and body with the blood of Jesus (Hebrew 9:14). Then start to resist the devil over your life with the word of God (Luke 4:1-13). You will overcome him by the blood of Jesus and the word of God (Revelation 12:11). You are free from the old covenant. If you will believe, that old things have passed away in your life. The new order has started. Now you shall be progressive and prosperous in Jesus' name.

DECLARATION: THE DEVIL HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MY LIFE AGAIN; I BELONG TO THE NEW COVENANT.

“THE NEW HAS CANCELLED THE OLD IN CHRIST”
