GRATITUDE

-

GRATITUDE Habakkuk 3:8-19 Devotional:-  “Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation..” (V. 18) NKJV      One of the great weapons to help you retain your strength in God is gratitude. This is because ingratitude reduces our strength. That is why it is often said that gratitude is the mother of altitude. Gratitude strengthens you with peace sufficient for progress. It makes God approve of you for your next level in life (Luke 17:17-19).

GOD’S PRESENCE

GOD’S PRESENCE  Psalms 16:1-11 Devotional:- “I have set the LORD always before me; Because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved” (V. 8) NKJV      One of the weapons of faith all God’s children must carry in their minds is the presence of God. God promised us that He will be with us in whatever situation we may be (Isaiah 43:1-5, Matthew 28:19). But this will have no effect if left in our bible and not established in our Soul. You need to let it be settled in your heart that God is with you, and this will produce great power in your heart.

REGULAR MEAL

REGULAR MEAL Luke 4:1-8 Devotional:- “But Jesus answered him, saying, "It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.'"” (V. 4) NKJV      Physically, what a man regularly feeds on will always determine his fitness. So it is in all areas of our life. Most of us have not come to the awareness of the fact that what we feed our Soul with will always determine our strengths or weaknesses. That is why God’s word warned us to be careful of what we listen to (Mark 4:24).

IGNORANCE

IGNORANCE Hosea 4:4-10 Devotional:- “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest for Me; Because you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children” (v.6) NKJV      One of the strongest enemies of your strength in God is ignorance. There are several categories of ignorance. There is a level yet to be out. There is another level of no light. But whichever of the levels is affecting a man, it is so strong that it will destroy the Strength of that man. I want to say that either of the levels can be removed by seeking the Lord (Isaiah 40:31)

PLAYING WITH SIN

PLAYING WITH SIN Judges 16:11-21 Devotional;- “And she said, "The Philistines are upon you, Samson!" So he awoke from his sleep, and said, "I will go out as before, at other times, and shake myself free!" But he did not know that the LORD had departed from him” (v.20) NKJV      God’s word says we cannot continue in sin and expect the grace of God to continue to abound (Rom. 6:1). Since divine strength feeds on grace, it is therefore impossible for a man to retain godly strength with sin. The word of God says whoever is sinning is of the devil, for the devil sinned from the beginning.

PRIDE

PRIDE Proverbs 16:10-19 Devotional:- “Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.” (V 18) NIV      Strength is primarily a function of grace. A man is strong because God has granted him the ngrace. That is why you will observe that each man is strong in different areas of life. The area of our strength is simply the area of our grace, and the giver of grace is God. Therefore, it demands that we humble ourselves to retain our grace.

LOSING FOCUS

LOSING FOCUS  Matthey 14:22-30 Devotional:- “But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, "Lord, save me!” (v.30) NKJV      God’s children have not fully come into the realm God has packaged for us. That is why I know that in your life, God will yet do great and awesome things. God will use your case to prove His power. Peter, having enjoyed the grace of God, had a strong faith and courage in God.

FEAR

-
Image
FEAR Numbers 13:26-33 Devotional:- “But the men who had gone up with him said, "We are not able to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we."” (v.31) NKJV      Fear is an act of admitting that your enemy is stronger than you. Any time you are afraid of your situation, you simply make God a liar, and His word of no effect. God’s word says, greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world (1 John 4:4). But fear makes you accept that he that is in the world is greater than He that is in you.

IMPATIENCE

IMPATIENCE I Samuel 13:7-14 Devotional:- “And Samuel said to Saul, “You have done foolishly. You have not kept the commandment of the LORD your God, which He commanded you. For now, the LORD would have established your kingdom over Israel forever” (v.13) NKJV      You must let nothing reduce or remove your strength in God. One of the things that removes human’s strength in God is impatience. It is in the nature of man to always want to dominate and control things around him and in his life because God has created us with the grace for dominion.

RUNNING WITHOUT DIRECTION

Image
RUNNING WITHOUT DIRECTION Proverbs 8:22-36 Devotional:- “Blessed is the man who listens to me, watching daily at my doors, waiting daily at my doorway (V. 34) NIV      We came to this world by the single decision of God. He made us for His purpose. We came here to serve Him. It will then be out of order for us to want to live here as we like. This is the reason for many believers' weaknesses. God gave us Jesus to return us to Himself, but when we give our lives to Christ, we still want to live for ourselves and as we like.

ABSENTING FROM ZION

-
Image
ABSENTING FROM ZION Psalm 87:1-7 Devotional:- “They go from strength to strength; Each one appears before God in Zion” (v.7) NKJV      It is important that you, as a believer, understand the importance of fellowshipping with the church. It is a place where people of the same Spirit come together and share strength. It is a place where the God of the church comes to bless His people (Ps. 133:3).

DOUBT

DOUBT 2 Kings 7:1-3, 17-18 Devotional:- “So an officer on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God and said, "Look, if the LORD would make windows in heaven, could this thing be?" And he said, "In fact, you shall see it with your eyes, but you shall not eat of it."" (V.2) NKJV      Men in their physical nature often want to exercise doubt in the invisible. We look at what is not visible as almost impossible. We forget that many virtues supporting our technology today are also not visible, but they are possible.

DISCOURAGEMENT

DISCOURAGEMENT 1 Samuel 30:1-6      Devotional:- “Now David was greatly distressed, for the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and his daughters. But David strengthened himself in the LORD his God.” (v.6) NKJV        As we pursue our desire on earth, we are bound to face some challenging situations, and this should not scare you. This is because whenever you want to take a positive step, you need to know that you are taking action. And every action commands a reaction. Your steps to progress are inadvertently weakening some forces. So your action must always expect a reaction.

SORROW

SORROW Nehemiah 8:4-12 Devotional:- “Then he said to them, “Go your way, eat the fat, drink the sweet and send portions to those for whom nothing is prepared; for this day is holy to our Lord. Do not sorrow, for the joy of the LORD is your strength.” (v. 10) NKJV      It is the target of the enemy, using every avenue to make a strong man weak. One of the weapons of the enemy to make a man weak is sorrow. This is not just a psychological feeling, it’s an affliction released or unleashed upon the life of a man from the pit of hell. No matter how strong a man is, when he allows sorrow, he is coming down. God’s word says; sorrow rotten bones (Proverbs 17:22).

HOPE DEFERRED

HOPE DEFERRED Proverbs 13:12-16 Devotional:- “Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but when the desire comes, it is a tree of life” (v. 12) NKJV      When we want to set goals for ourselves, it would be wonderful if we set a time for our goals. But when it comes to an expectation in our life, when we set goals by faith, we should never waver. We term a hope delayed, when we have an expectation schedule for a time, and it does not seem to be coming at the time we have set for it.

DISTANCING FROM THE SCRIPTURES

-
Image
DISTANCING FROM THE SCRIPTURES Deuteronomy 8:1-11 Devotional:- “To teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD” (v.3) NIV      The word of God is the bank of our strength in God. The word of God is the strength of God (John 1:1-3; Hebrews 4:12). Through the word, God had done all He had done. God’s word says, without Him, nothing else was created (John 1:3). When a man, therefore, distances himself from the Word of God, such is distancing himself from his source, He will lack the strength of God.

WITHOUT HIM

WITHOUT HIM  John 15:1-8 Devotional:- "I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing” (V. 5) NKJV        God made man to be independent. He made us as being that is capable of carrying out our destiny on earth. We are made like God. Yet, we must know that true independence is to know what you want and choose to connect to where you can get it. No independence means not depending on a source. You are made to be influenced by a spirit, depending on your choice. It could now be of God or the devil (Job 32:8).

BE STRONG

BE STRONG Ephesians 6:10-18 Devotional:- “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the Power of His might.” (v.10) NKJV      When you see a man with a strong body behaving like a chicken, something is really wrong. We all know that it is humiliating to hear that a seven-year-old girl defeats a man of thirty years in battle. This should be a function of ignorance, i.e., not knowing how to deal with such an embarrassing situation.

YOU HAVE TO FIGHT

YOU HAVE TO FIGHT Deuteronomy 20:1-4 Devotional:- “When you go out to battle against your enemies, and see horses and chariots and people more numerous than you, do not be afraid of them; for the LORD your God is with you, who brought you up from the land of Egypt” (V. 4) NKJV      God’s children must come to realize that our victory has been purchased by by the blood of Jesus, but we have to fight to establish it in our lives. If you have to face the devil, it will be impossible to defeat him. he was in a greater glory before than you are now. He has been in a battle game before the creation of man (Revelation 12:7-8). He knows far more than we do.

YOUR OPPONENTS

YOUR OPPONENTS     1 Peter 5:5-11 DEVOTIONAL:- “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.” (v. 8). NKJV      When a man does not know his opponent, he will be totally ignorant of the way to victory. Most people always make the mistakes taking man as their enemy. As God’s children, we must come to understand that the forces against us are the forces of the devil, though they always use people.

STRENGTH IN GOD

-
Image
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).

WHAT IS STRENGTH?

Image
WHAT IS STRENGTH? I Corinthians 2:1-6 Devotional:- “And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,” (v. 4) NKJV      All God’s children must understand what strength is. This present world only recognizes that there is strength, but most people don’t understand what it is or where it is from. If anyone is not strong, neither will he/she be able to share with the strong (Isaiah 53:12). Strength is not in words, but it is in the demonstration of power.

HE IS MY STRENGTH

Image
HE IS MY STRENGTH  Psalm 18:28-34 Devotional:- “It is God who arms me with strength, and makes my way perfect” (V. 32) NKJV      One of the reasons why God is shaking everything now is that man has been building in his own strength without God. Men have stopped giving glory to God but to self (Isaiah 42:8).

STRENGTH FOR YOU

STRENGTH FOR YOU Isaiah 41:8-14 Devotional:- “Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand” (V. 10) NKJV      Part of the unfailing promises of God is to continue to strengthen His children. So, the word of God to you today is that He will strengthen you. No matter the area you need strength, be it finances, family, business connections or ministry, the Lord will strengthen you. As the Lord is giving you a promise today, you need to know how to connect to His covenant promises for your strength.

YOU MUST NOT BE WEAK

YOU MUST NOT BE WEAK Job 22:21-30 Devotional:- “When they cast you down, and you say, 'Exaltation will come!' Then He will save the humble person” (v. 29) NKJV      The experience that many people are going through in the world today is making them weak. Too many people are now in deep sorrow of defeat by situations and circumstances. Those we used to think were strong are now very weak. The tables are turning against so many strong men.

ONLY THE VICTORS

ONLY THE VICTORS Revelation 21:1-8 Devotional:- “He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son” (v. 7) NKJV      In this part of the world, many are not so used to taking responsibility for challenges. Instead of being proactive to foresee and prevent issues, people are used to looking out for whom to blame and who should help out (Proverbs 14:23). It is vivid that we are in a challenging season. It is also clear that we are drawing closer to the end of the age.

FOR YOUR ADVANTAGE

Image
FOR YOUR ADVANTAGE Isaiah 60:1-8 Devotional:- “For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, And deep darkness the people; But the LORD will arise over you, And His glory will be seen upon you” (v. 2) NKJV      The scriptures we read today show that God’s word has already foreseen this generation's doom. In other words, the current shaking is from the Lord. It is part of His agenda for the end times (2 Timothy 3:1). This shaking is actually necessary to shake ungodliness and people’s hope in material things and money, which have become the gods of many.

HERITAGE OF VICTORY

-
Image
HERITAGE OF VICTORY 1 John 5:1-12 Devotional:- “For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world- our faith” (V. 4) NKJV      There are always two major ways to achieve victory. It is either you have it by heritage or by merit. To merit something is to build up for it and attain it. The one that is stronger and greater is the one that is inherited. That is why you find some family lineages successful in a particular area. It is the children born in the palace to the king that turned to be the king in the future. This is because the Royal Seed is in them (Daniel 1:3)

IF GOD BE FOR US

-
Image
IF GOD BE FOR US Romans 8:28-39 Devotional:- “What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?” (V. 31) NKJV      Living a life of defeat is a frustrating thing. It could cripple the heart of a person from taking right steps to progress. This in most cases, is a product of defeat mentality. Defeat mentality is largely a product of fear and doubt. Fear and doubt are also produced by repeated experiences of failure. If a man has tried several times on so many things and has failed, he may not be willing to try again. That is why the best things in life is not to depend on your experiences but on the power of God.

HE GIVES STRENGTH

Image
HE GIVES STRENGTH Isaiah 40:21-31 Devotional:- “He gives power to the weak, And to those who have no might He increases strength” (v.29) NKJV      It often looks intimidating to suddenly discover that you are not as strong as you used to be. This is a state in which you can’t just locate your strength. One thing or the other has sapped them. Such cases might make some people afraid; those things of which they have boasted seem not to be there again. Others may think that at this time, the enemy might come to take advantage of them.

CREATED STRONG

CREATED STRONG Genesis 1:26-31 Devotional:- “So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them” (V. 27) NKJV      The word of God is so clear about the nature and the purpose of the creation of Man. When God finished creating all He wanted to create, He needed someone who would take charge and manage the earth. I believe the first world created by God in his beauty and glory was taken over by the devil and darkness. And it became formless and void (Genesis 1:1-2).

MAN OF WAR

MAN OF WAR Exodus 15: 1-12 Devotional:- “The LORD is a man of war; The LORD is His name” (V. 3) NKJV      Every man’s strength or weakness is traceable to his foundation. Your flow in life is not unconnected with your spring. God consciously chose each one’s background to provoke them to rise, and He hides His glory in it. God prepares everyone for his glory to make all glory be unto Himself (Isaiah 48:11). So, if your background is poor, congratulations, because in that poverty is hidden the strength of riches.

MASTER’S MINAS

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.
