In It
Galatians 2:20 “I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” (KJV).
Yesterday, we began to look at the first of three reasons why people do not see and experience the full spectrum of Sõzõ. And the first reason is Ignorance. Ephesians 4:18 “They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hearts.” (NIV). Hardness of heart brings about spiritual blindness Read the rest of this entry
Inform & Guide
John 18:37 “I came into the world to tell people the truth.” (NCV)
Jesus came to unveil God’s plans, the truth of your destiny. Ephesians 1:9-11 “God’s secret plan has now been revealed to us; it is a plan centered on Christ, designed long ago… And this is His plan: At the right time God will bring everything together under the authority of Christ— Read the rest of this entry
Light Up!
John 1:5 “The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” (NIV)
Christ Jesus came to the earth to light up the world and the question is how. To help us, we have put it in a way that we can easily remember and relate with. We have come up with the acronym “L.I.G.H.T”. L stands for Let Us In On Who God Is. Read the rest of this entry
It Is Finished!
Colossians 2:14-15 “eliminated the massive debt we incurred… that stood against us. He took it all away; He nailed it to the cross. But that’s not all. He disarmed those who once ruled over us… He put them on display to the world to show His victory over them by means of the cross.” (Voice)
We will kick off today’s devotional with our final thought from yesterday, which is Ephesians 2:8 “Saving is ALL his idea, and ALL his work. All we do is trust him enough to let him do it. It’s God’s gift from start to FINISH!” (MSG, emphasis added). It was not your idea. Read the rest of this entry
Not You!
Ephesians 2:10 “For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.”
What did Jesus finish on the cross when he said Tetelestai? Jesus Paid My Penalty And Cancelled My Debt. He Defeated The Fear Of Death. He Broke satan’s Power To Mess Up My Life. And He Guaranteed My Salvation Forever. I do not have to keep myself saved. Jesus keeps me saved. Read the rest of this entry
Right Now!
2 Corinthians 6:2 “For God says, “At just the right time, I heard you. On the day of salvation, I helped you.” Indeed, the “right time” is now. Today is the day of salvation.”
When should I move fast? When God Tells Me to Do Something. When I Need To Ask or Offer Forgiveness. When I Have Made a Promise to God. And When I Have An Opportunity To Do Good. Wherever you have an opportunity to go do good — move fast. Read the rest of this entry
Doors
Revelation 4:1 “Then as I looked, I saw a door standing open in heaven, and the same voice I had heard before spoke to me like a trumpet blast. The voice said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must happen after this.”
Doors are a consistent concept in Scripture. In fact, doors are mentioned about four hundred times in the Bible. We have been engaging the concept of doors representing the options of the future that is ahead of us in this decade of destiny, this decade of light. Read the rest of this entry
High Priority
Leviticus 26:4 “I will give you your rains in their season, and the land shall yield its produce, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.” (NRSV)
Yesterday we began to look at the significance of rain and that is where we will pick up today’s devotional from. Rain causes a harvest. Rain refreshes. Rain signifies a change in season. One huge importance of rain is a leveller. Read the rest of this entry
Take It Back, IV
Psalm 126:3 “The Lord has done great things for us, and we are filled with JOY.” (NIV, emphasis added).
The Lord has done what great things for us, so we focus on the great things that the Lord has done, and we are filled with joy. The opposite is also true; if you do not focus in on the great things the Lord has done for you, you will not be filled with joy. Read the rest of this entry
Take It Back, I
Ps.43:4 “There I will go to the altar of God, to God—the source of all my joy. I will praise you with my harp, O God, my God!”
In yesterday’s devotional, God began to talk to us about the importance of having joy in our lives as His children. Cranky Christians are bad witnesses. So, how do we get our joy back and how do we sustain our joy? Seven things! Are you ready? Read the rest of this entry
