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).

PRODUCT OF SIN

PRODUCT OF SIN

James 1:9-18
Devotional:- “Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.” (V. 15) NKJV

    Believers should be careful not to fill their minds with the mentality of sin. There are some facts we need to know about this so that we are not ignorant of the devices of the devil. Then the devil will not find it easy to outwit us in Jesus' name (2 Corinthians 2:11). What pushes most great men into the traps of sin are what could easily be avoided, but they became victims of it through their ignorance.

The scripture we read today gives us the process and products of sin, so that at any level we are in the process, we can always resist the flesh to discontinue because it will put us into the trap. God’s word says, God doesn’t tempt anyone with evil (sin), but everyone is tempted by their lust and enticed. This means that sin commences in the heart of men when they start to have wrong thoughts and desires for the things of the flesh. As this is not curbed, it soon develops into an enticement that is uncontrollable, then gives birth to sin. And sin gives birth to death (2 Corinthians 6:16-18). Death in this context talks about separation from God, which, if not corrected, could now lead to eternal separation from God in hell.  Why is it this hard? May I let you know that any activity of sin is an act of the devil, manipulating people to disobey God. Sin is not just behaviour (1 John 3:8). Please understand that light and darkness do not coexist, so also God and the devil cannot co-dwell in your heart.

Friend, you can therefore kill the seed of sin, which is wrong desire, rather than struggling with its fruit when it begins to manifest, so that it does not lead you to trials or temptation. You are going far, do not let sin hinder your journey. And you will soon arrive at your destination of glory.

PRAYER: LORD, HELP ME TO ALWAYS CHOOSE TO OBEY YOU NO MATTER WHAT.

“IF SIN COULD PROLONG YOUR JOURNEY, THEN YOU SHOULD DESTROY ITS SEED
