GETTING IT RIGHT

Date 📅 31st October, 2022 Topic GETTING IT RIGHT Living Scripture 2 Timothy 2:15 KJV Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. Every child of God needs to grow and go the right way in life. Any self decision may be self destructive and error-filled. The Bible tells us that as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the children of God. This means that only those following the ways of the Holy Spirit are getting it Right. This devotion is for us to observe and check if we are truly getting Right in all that we do and check our decisions, and who has been leading us in our journey of life. Our Lord Jesus Christ lived amongst us here on earth as a man, and He lived as a correction of past mistakes. He had an habit of constantly studying the Bible and doing what it says and He never failed, neither did He stumble on the way. The Narrow Path is the right way for every believer  to pass here. Ag

A LIFE WITH CHRIST

Date 📅 27th, October 2022 Topic A Life With Christ  Living Scripture Philippians 1:20-21 KJV According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death. [21] For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. A Life with Christ Jesus is a life with gain. Many people out in the world today, live for themselves and often follow several patterns and cosmic readings to be able live a meaningful life, but that void which is meant for Christ Jesus to fill can never be filled by anyone else or anything. Walking with Christ Jesus is walking in the light, being separated from the darkness and ignorance and living a life of truth. Apostle Paul proclaimed Christ to everyone with boldness and willing to show forth the praise of God. Whereas many believers are ashamed to be seen walking with their Bibles, or evangelizing or helping the poo

THE GRACE OF GOD

Date 📅 26th October, 2022 Topic The Grace of God Living Scripture 1 Corinthians 15:10 KJV But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me. The grace of God is very important to everyone both saved and unsaved though as many as believe in Christ Jesus receives of the grace and truth at work in the Lord. This is what sustains us as children of God throughout our lifetime here on earth. God's grace for the world is general but limited and that for His children comes only in Christ Jesus, for as many that want to partake of this kind of grace must be born again and baptized in the Holy Spirit. This brought about the testimony of brother Saul turned Apostle Paul who testified to be the least of all the Apostles and disciples of Christ. He was a persecutor of the gospel a child of Abraham under the common grace but not under the g

DEALING IN PATIENCE

Date 📅 25th October, 2022 Topic Dealing in Patience  Living Scripture  James 5:10-11 KJV Take, my brethren, the prophets, who have spoken in the name of the Lord, for an example of suffering affliction, and of patience. [11] Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy. Job was a man of godly patience and righteousness, he loved and feared the LORD with his life. He served the LORD and kept His words, though he went through a vigorous exercise of faith, yet he remained in patience, eagerly waiting for the Lord alone to take control. The patience of Job cannot be physically measured, it is seen as a testimony of his commitments and loyalty to the will of God. As children of God we need to live by such godly example as Job did, his actions placed the devil (the accuser of the brethren) in total shame and frustration. We are capable of being pure ambassado

The Way of Peace

Date 📅 22nd October, 2022 Topic The Way of Peace Living Scripture Philippians 4:7 KJV And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. There's a yearning in our hearts for true peace within us and with our neighbors and this can only be gotten through Jesus Christ our Lord. Christ Jesus was and is a man of peace, he has peace and he gives peace to many. The world seeks a solution in many ways; peace in marriage, relationship, to cease wars, settle conflicts and peace within. Many people seek the way of Peace but don't know the Person of Peace . Many Wrong ways of peace have been invented by several people some mostly manipulated and controlled by familiar and evil spirits. If such an individual counsels someone there'll never be peace but an increase in fantasy and manipulation. We need to go to God with everything that burdens us and seek fellowship with the Holy Spirit for the way of Peace 🕊️. Kin

The Right Action

Date 📅 21st October, 2022 Topic The Right Action Living Scripture Philippians 4:6 KJV Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. Taking steps regarding a matter is very important and the choices we make matters a lot. There are many brothers and sisters in Christ who have made wrong choices and decisions because they do not follow what the Bible teaches. Instead they listen to their peers, or pay more attention to wrong counsel or worldly standards. Let this word of grace be our guide in every situation just as Christ Jesus did in the season when Lazarus his friend died. Christ did not fret or feel anxious rather He gave thanks because of the confidence and trust He has in the Most High God, who is able to do the miracle of life. Christ spoke with boldness and called out to Lazarus who had died for four days and he responded and the people were amazed at the sign and wonders of God. Yes

Sinner to Saint

Date 📅 20th October, 2022 Topic Sinner to Saint Living Scripture Romans 3:23 KJV For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; The journey of our convertion and transfiguration started when we decided to let go of our self and old ways and tune into the will of God by accepting Christ as Lord and Savior. Our Lord Jesus Christ is in the business of turning sinners to saints. Because of the fall of man from the beginning it was written that all mankind have sinned and come short of the supply of God's mighty glory. Which is why Christ Jesus died that we might be heirs and like heirs with Him in the kingdom of God. Without Jesus no one can be saved, all men without the knowledge and salvation of Christ are sinners. No man was born a saint, we are washed from stains, sins and disobedience into saints (children of God). The Bible is not full of men born as saints but rather men and women washed by the Blood of the Lamb of God and by the Word of God. Father Abrah

A FRIEND OF GOD

Date 📅 19th October, 2022 Topic A friend of God Living Scripture James 2:23 AMP And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "ABRAHAM BELIEVED GOD, AND THIS [faith] WAS CREDITED TO HIM [by God] AS RIGHTEOUSNESS and AS CONFORMITY TO HIS WILL," and he was called the friend of God. A friend of God, this sounds impossible for a man to befriend a God. With men it is definitely impossible but with God all things are possible. Father Abraham was an unusual man who followed the LORD and built a trust system to form an breakable bond between him and God. He believed God so much that he went further to depend only on God's provision and security without compromise. Kings could not entice him nor persuade him. His dedication to the will of God led him into covenant relationships that generations till date are still partaking in it. His relationship grew with the LORD that he became a prophet, a prince and a father of all nations. Whenever God asked him for a sacrifice h

NOW

Date 📅 18th October, 2022 Topic NOW Living Scripture Hebrews 11:1,7 KJV Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. [7] By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith. Now we begin to walk in the ways of faith and truth as our fathers in faith and mighty men of old and just as they witnessed the glory of God first hand so shall we if we act now. The perfect example is Noah and the ark, a man of grace and wisdom. The world was stained with disobedience, sinful ways and thick immoralities. And God decided to wipe the inhabitants of the earth with a great flood such as have never been before and even after. The heavens where ready to open the flood gates and the earth to let out her waters. When God spoke to Noah, he acted immediately and finished the ark on time and he eva

Living by Example

Date 📅 17th October, 2022 Topic Living by Example Living Scripture John 13:15 KJV For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you. Living by example is the action of an obedient heart and the response of a progressive child of God. Our Lord Jesus Christ led by example and taught on several platforms and occasions that we should learn of Him. He is the author and finisher of our faith, let's do what Christ has instructed the church. Many out there may not have access to the Word of God that's why He set us as lights on a lamp stand in our homes, areas of responsibility and livelihood for them to see the visible truth.  We should never be ashamed of the gospel of Christ Jesus, because we are ambassadors of the LORD. The whole of our lives speaks messages, it is not only when one speaks from a platform with microphone and speaker. Everywhere Jesus went He was doing good, and this is the fruit that accompanies good works and an examplary life.

THE NARROW PATH

Date 📅 15th October, 2022 Topic The Narrow Path Living Scripture Matthew 7:14 KJV Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Jesus taught the people and He is teaching us this morning to follow His voice into the narrow path or the uncommon or avoided path of life. The narrow way leads God's children into righteousness and holiness and a definite direction. The ways of God are totally unsual and mysterious but we must learn to trust and have faith in Him, He has never failed. Our Lord Jesus Christ followed the narrow path of faith until the cross, He took no shortcuts nor detour away from His paths but was focused and determined. This narrow path is only accessible to few brethren in Christ out of the many creations of God. This is the way leading to life and life in abundance. Don't be distracted by the pleasures and enticements of this world it will only confuse and ensnare a child of God. We have v

No Weakness In Heaven

Date 📅 14th October, 2022 Topic No Weakness In Heaven Living Scripture Matthew 5:48 KJV Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. Heaven is a place to dream about, a place where our Heavenly Father dwells. It is not the skies we see or the galaxy of wide space we watch on the satellite and internet. The Bible records that Heaven is God's throne, a place where there are innumerable hosts of angels serving the LORD. There's no weakness in God's presence, for His glory and power radiates through the whole existence. Every biblical angel as described are very powerful and well coordinated. So is everyone born of God. Our Lord Jesus Christ came from Heaven and taught us what Heaven is like. And all the illustrations given in the four gospel of Christ were full of maturity and perfection. God wants us to be like Him that's why we are made in His image and glory though resident here on earth but of the commonwealth of Heaven. Wit

The Will of the Father

DATE 📅 13th October, 2022 Topic The Will of the Father Living Scripture John 6:39-40 KJV And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day. [40] And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day. It is very important to know this kingdom truth, and every child of God must come to understand the Will of the Father. Jesus carried the Father's words and authority with the whole of His life. He understood the role of the Father and served the LORD until His death. Jesus Christ taught about the perfect prayer and indicated properly the place of the will of God in our lives. "Thy Kingdom come and thy Will be done".  The Will of God is perfect and carries everything fitting for everyone who believes in Christ. It is often our refusal of God'

Looking onto Jesus Christ

Date 📅 11th October, 2022 Topic Looking onto Jesus Christ Living Scripture Hebrews 12:2 KJV Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. Our gaze and focus each day as children of God should be on Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. The Psalmist knew this fact long before Jesus came in the flesh, that's why he sang it in - Psalm 121:1-2 KJV - I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. [2] My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth. In meditation our eyes should desire His words which will guide us into the presence of God. All that we seek and will ever need is in Jesus.  To set our eyes on Jesus Christ we must be intentional and focused on His teachings, and instructions. When God's word takes first place in our lives then we can gain access into more of His glory. The woman with

Satan Is a Liar

Date 📅 10th October, 2022 Topic   Satan is a liar  Living Scripture John 8:44 KJV Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. The Word of God reveals to us yet another truth, saying that Satan can never speak the truth. No matter the promises and empty looking advances he makes to entice you, he is never a man of his word because he is a thief and the father of liars of all sorts. He tried to twist the truth with Jesus Christ after 40days of fasting and Satan came to deceive Jesus with empty gifts and negotiations. Whenever Satan comes, his sole aim is to steal, kill and to destroy (John 10:10). Jesus name understood his gimmicks so Christ Jesus used the Truth of God's Word against Satan. The accuser of the body of Christ is never tired of trying to lie

TEACHER

DATE 📅 7th October, 2022 TOPIC TEACHER Living Scripture Acts 1:1 KJV The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach, The Son of God, Jesus Christ lived amongst men, participated in several of the Jewish traditions and was loved by many. But something about Him makes His life a lesson till date. He is not just a Master, a Lord or King or a Father alone, but a great teacher. He taught more than He performed miracles and several of His great exploits were through His teachings. Jesus showed us the way by carefully teaching us the patterns of our inheritance in God, although He taught in parables yet the lessons were life to all. His life here on earth was a mystery to many and His ways were quite interesting and new. He forgave not just with words alone but with actions. He loved this world so much (John 3:16) that He taught us the way into reconciliation with our Heavenly Father, through salvation and redemption by grace. He used

THE SOUND OF REJOICING

DATE 📅 6th October, 2022 TOPIC   The Sound of Rejoicing LIVING SCRIPTURE Exodus 15:20-21 KJV And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances. [21] And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to the Lord, for he hath triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea. Hallelujah was born in heaven at the sound of victory and rejoicing as it echoed through eternity on that faithful day which the LORD has made. And this sound of gladness and praise was transported to the earth by revelation into the hearts of the Sons of God who began to worship the LORD in the beauty of His holiness. Our Father in Heaven has always loved pleasant sounds which makes Him to inhabit the praises of His people. As children of God we should never stop rejoicing and worshipping the Lord. Israel had suffered for 400 years in the land of Egypt under pharaoh and his task masters and the Lord sa

GREAT MINDS

Date 📅 5th October, 2022 Topic : Great minds Living Scripture 2 Timothy 1:7 KJV For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. In the world today and from the time past majority of the world's greatest minds comprised of christians. Albert Einstein was an Israeli scientist who discovered the mathematical equation and the atomic nuclear bomb that gave America the world power which was tested against Japan in one of the world wars. Every child of God is gifted with an excellent mind but not everyone come to the full potential of the deposit of God.  Joseph the son of Jacob was blessed with an excellent spirit which made him outstanding in the land of Egypt and over Pharaoh and all the wise men of the land. Daniel was very intelligent, smart, brilliant and spirit filled which kept him relevant in a Babylon in the time of captivity. At the age of 12, our Lord Jesus Christ developed a strong desire for the Will of God and crav

HEART CONDITION

Date 📅 4th October, 2022 Topic The Heart Condition Living Scripture Genesis 45:3-5,7-8 KJV And Joseph said unto his brethren, I am Joseph; doth my father yet live? And his brethren could not answer him; for they were troubled at his presence. [4] And Joseph said unto his brethren, Come near to me, I pray you. And they came near. And he said, I am Joseph your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt. [5] Now therefore be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that ye sold me hither: for God did send me before you to preserve life. [7] And God sent me before you to preserve you a posterity in the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance. [8] So now it was not you that sent me hither, but God: and he hath made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and a ruler throughout all the land of Egypt. The heart of Joseph was pure and filled with peace. He kept himself away from sin and reserved for the Lord's use. He feared the Lord with his life and walked in u

ENQUIRE FROM GOD

Date 📅 3rd October, 2022 Topic ENQUIRE FROM GOD Living Scripture 1 Samuel 23:1-2 KJV Then they told David, saying, Behold, the Philistines fight against Keilah, and they rob the threshingfloors. [2] Therefore David enquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I go and smite these Philistines? And the Lord said unto David, Go, and smite the Philistines, and save Keilah. David the son of Jesse was a very meticulous man who carefully ensured that every step he took was backed up by his master, the LORD. He waited for the voice of the LORD before acting which made him to be victorious and ahead of his enemies. This action of David is an expression of what every believer in Christ Jesus should do, stop thinking for yourself and trusting in men than the creator and savior of the world. Jesus waits to lead us into victory but are we willing like David to follow God's instructions! David used an ephod from the priestly garments which served as a means or medium to reach out to the LOR
