DEVOTION ~ SAVED BY GRACE

-
Theme: Saved by Grace
Text: Ephesians 1:3-6

3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, 4 just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, 5 having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, 6 to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved.



We ought to be grateful to God at all times for His love and mercy for us. Out of love, God gave His only begotten Son to die for us and give redemption to those who believe in Him (John 3:16). This love redirects us to our dominion which was comprise by our first parents Adam and Eve when they sinned against God (Genesis 2 & 3).

Before the foundation of the world, God chose us by creating us in His own image for us to be holy and without blame (Genesis 1:2628) but disobedience led us away from His will for us. But God's love for us never ceased. His love towards us is renewed each morning (Lamentation 3:23). That's why Christ came to save a dying world and to bring Light into our lives again. Whether you're Jew or Greek, so long as you believe in the Saviour, you'll be saved (Romans 11:16-24).

You've been saved by grace and so rejoice in it and always be grateful to God. When grace speaks, nothing can hinder the manifestation. May the grace of God locate every field of your life and bring about fruition in Jesus name.


Prayer: The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit abide with us now and forevermore in Jesus' name. AMEN!

CHARACTER STUDY ~ APOLLOS

-
Apollos means "one who destroys or a destroyer". He was a New Testament figure who steadily grew to become a servant of Jesus through ministry. He was a staunch Jew.  Some Characteristics of Apollos: √ Apollos was endowed with great knowledge and was very outspoken. In his line of ministry, he exhibited understanding of the old canon and delivered its message boldly.  √ Despite Apollos's eloquence and knowledge, he was only vexed in the baptism of John without the knowledge that the prophecy about the Messiah had already been fulfilled. John’s baptism was the baptism unto repentance: An act of confession and turning from sin which anticipated the coming of the Messiah. Let us be informed that Christ's second return is for judgment.  √ Apollos was instructed in the way of Christ by Priscilla and Aquila, two faithful couples in Christ. After one of his public teachings, he was called aside by the couple who explained the scripture to him. His submissiveness to adhere to...

Do you feel you're forgotten, rejected or insecure? Dear beloved in the Lord, you're not forgotten, for God has engraved your name in His palms. Isaiah 49:16 See, "I have engraved you on the Palms of My Hands: Your walls are ever before Me". If God has engraved your name in His palms, it means He always sees or watches over you. Rise up and shake the fear and doubts off.  Declare, "I am not forgotten or alone. The LORD has engraved me in His Palms. Therefore, His eyes are fixed on me, and He protects me from the wicked. I decree all that I have is secured in the Name of Jesus Christ. AMEN!

What inhibits you determines what comes out of you. The two elements are light and darkness. The light within produces good, whereas darkness is evil. It is recorded in  Ephesians 5:8-9 For once you were full of darkness, but now you have light from the Lord. So live as people of light! For this light within you produces only what is good, right, and true.  Declare, "In the Name of Jesus Christ, I no longer walk in darkness but rather in light. Therefore, every product of darkness within and around me is extinct. I decree that my family and I live in light, and we enjoy what the light produces in fullness. Our deeds are good, right, and true. AMEN!"
