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).

SELF PERCEPTION

SELF PERCEPTION

Numbers 13:26-33
Devotional:- “There we saw the giants (the descendants of Anak came from the giants); and we were like grasshoppers in our own sight, and so we were in their sight” (v.33) NKJV

    No one will be able to fly when he has a wrong perception of him/themself. Wrong self-perception is to look down on your personality. To disqualify yourself from the race set ahead of you. To look at yourself as being weak. This could become a weight on you and hinder you from being able to fly in life.

This happens to us because sometimes we allow people’s wrong comments about us to dominate our minds. Some people have the picture of successful men and women in their mind, and anytime they look at themselves in the mirror, they can't see themselves fit into a mode of success. Some people’s experience of failure makes them conclude that they can’t make it. But none of these is a strong enough reason for you to undervalue yourself.

Though God had invested so much to bring the Israelites so far, and now they are about to enter the land of Canaan but they now see themselves as grasshoppers that are not able to possess the land. This got God annoyed, and they all died in the wilderness as a result of their fear. Self-intimidation is an activity of demons and darkness. People need to be set free from such (2 Timothy 1:7). We should be careful not to equate it to a bad mood or feelings. It takes the light of the truth to shatter such spirit (Psalm 119:130). Please don’t just blame and mock such a person. 

Friend, stop underrating yourself for greater is He that is in you (1 John 4:4). You can do all things through Christ that strengthens you (Philippians 4:13). Look at the mirror again today and know that you are an Image of God (Genesis 1:26-30). You are the very image that could be referred to as success. You can make it, no matter what men may say about you. The only final word on your life is the word of God. You are made to fit into your destiny. God cannot make a mistake. There is a glorious purpose for your make. From the day you see yourself able, your strength will be restored, and you will also move to your next level of glory.

PRAYER: LORD, I DECREE MY FREEDOM FROM THE SPIRIT OF TIMIDITY

“NEVER YOU SAY I CAN’T DO IT BUT I CAN”
