Four, Five
John 3:16 “For God expressed His love for the world in this way: He gave His only Son so that whoever believes in Him will not face everlasting destruction, but will have everlasting life.” (The Voice, emphasis added).
We will pick up today’s devotional from where we left off yesterday. Acts 20:35 “…remembering the words that the Lord Jesus himself said, ‘There is more happiness in giving than in receiving.’” Read the rest of this entry
Three, Four
Proverbs 11:25 “A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.” (NIV).
The third of nine rewards that God promises to give you if you live a generous life is God Promises He Will Bless Your Work And Business. Are you an entrepreneur or a professional? Read the rest of this entry
Convict vs. Condemn
Romans 8:1 “Now the case is closed. There remains no accusing voice of condemnation against those who are joined in life-union with Jesus, the Anointed One… who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.” (TPT & NLT)
The Holy Spirit Convicts Of Us Of Our Need For God. The Holy Spirit does not condemn us. It is the devil and his agents that condemn. The Holy Spirit convicts us. What is the difference between Read the rest of this entry
Needed Help
Romans 8:15-16 “So you have not received a spirit that makes you fearful slaves. Instead, you received God’s Spirit when he adopted you as his own children. Now we call him, “Abba, Father.” For his Spirit joins with our spirit to affirm that we are God’s children.”
The Holy Spirit Helps Me In My Walk With God. This is the third thing The Holy Spirit does for you. John 16:7 “But I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I go away;
Friendship
Matthew 11:29 “Walk with me and work with me – watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you.” (MSG)
The Holy Spirit has come to teach you how to know God, but you have to spend time with Him. Imagine this, exams are drawing close and student B spends all her time reading romantic novels. And then when it is time for the exam, Read the rest of this entry
Pay Attention!
Ephesians 5:18 “Don’t destroy yourself by getting drunk, but let the Spirit fill your life.” (CEV)
Believe it or not, we are being programmed (trained) two-four-seven. Check your screen time, if you have a phone that does that, and you will be shocked at how many hours you spend on social media. You watch one reel, and tell yourself, Read the rest of this entry
Teacher
Luke 12:12 “for the Holy Spirit will teach you at that time what you should say.” (NIV)
The key to life with God is The Holy Spirit. The first thing The Holy Spirit does for you is He Connects You To God’s Presence Forever. The Second thing The Holy Spirit does for you is He Teaches You How To Know God. Jesus gave you Read the rest of this entry
Fill vs. Feel
Acts 2:4 “And they were all filled (diffused throughout their souls) with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other (different, foreign) languages (tongues), as the Spirit kept giving them clear and loud expression [in each tongue in appropriate words].” (AMPC)
Our final thought from yesterday’s devotional was that marriage is not the solution to loneliness. The Holy Spirit is the only answer to loneliness. Marriage does not end loneliness. Again, this is always a shock to single people. Read the rest of this entry
The Neighbours
2 Kings 4:3 “And Elisha said, “Borrow as many empty jars as you can from your friends and neighbours.” (emphasis added).
The second type of relationship you need, to be limitless and to truly become all that God has created you to be, is Constituents. In 2 Kings 4, it is pretty clear that the constituents were the neighbours. Elisha told the woman to go to her neighbours, her constituents.
Fight!
Nehemiah 4:14 “Then as I looked over the situation, I called together the nobles and the rest of the people and said to them, “Don’t be afraid of the enemy! Remember the Lord, who is great and glorious, and fight for your brothers, your sons, your daughters, your wives, and your homes!”
A person who plots with others to hate on you, spread rumours about you, or to harm you if they can, is a Conspirator. The Bible says in 1 John 3:15 that hate is on the murder spectrum. Anyone trying to destroy you can kill you and is your enemy. Read the rest of this entry
