THE PAST

  THE PAST Isaiah 43:8-21 Devotional:- “Do not remember the former things, Nor consider the things of old.” (v.18) NKJV God, who gives us a memory, want us to use our past experiences to help us make quality decisions in the future, but the past is always the enemy of the future for many. If you don’t know how to manage your memory system of the past, it is capable of standing against your success in the future. As emotional beings, we are sometimes faced with the challenges of memories of our past experiences, our errors and failures. You will observe that at every point of decision-making to progress, the enemy will bring back to your memory the past experiences of your failure. This is just to bring fear to your heart and make you doubt the possibility of your success, so you could lose your joy. The scripture we read today instructs us to let go of the past. God is starting a brand-new thing with you. He is giving you new experiences of success and breakthrough. You need to lea...

FOR YOUR ADVANTAGE

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.

I would like you to see that, as much as these shakings are programmed by God, they are also for your rising and glory. Our devotional verse shows us that darkness will cover the earth. Also, in the middle of the verse comes a conjunction ‘but…’ This simply shows us that some people shall be exempted, as it happened to the children of Israel in Egypt (Exodus 8:23).

God’s word says, though darkness shall cover the earth, but God shall arise over you. This darkness is confusion and a lack of understanding of what to do. But the light of God will lighten your way. Since darkness is what brings out the glory of light, the darkness is therefore to your advantage. That is the reason you and I should always connect with he light of God through the word of God (Psalm 119:130). Remember, the word of God says you will stand out (Matthew 5:14-16). While the people in confusion are selling their properties, you will receive grace to buy. While they are quitting, you will be getting established and taking over in Jesus' name. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, let the light of your word make me stand out for your glory.

“LIGHT ALWAYS TAKES ADVANTAGE OF DARKNESS TO SHINE.”
