DEVOTION ~ BENEFITS OF THE WORD

Theme: Benefits of the Word 
Text: Jeremiah 15:16

16 Your words were found, and I ate them, and Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart; For I am called by Your name, O Lord God of hosts.


Jesus is the spoken Word of God. He has been in the beginning and is even unto this day. In the dispensation of Jeremiah, he had an encounter with the scrolls that contain the knowledge of God. And in studying it he found joy and gladness of heart. Praise be to God, we have the full experience with the Word of God. 

When we encounter Jesus in our lives, and we allow Him to be a part of us (eat the Word), we will find divine joy unspeakable. Joy not by possession of earthly items but an inner peace and relieve. Our heart will find solace in the midst of evil and raging storms of life. One that cannot be defined or expressed well by words.

You have the identity of God through Christ Jesus, don't give room for the enemy to snatch it from you. The Word of God equips you to relate well with others. By the Word, you are able to forgive the most difficult evil done you with ease. You're more than a conqueror if you have the Word for the men of old overcame the beast by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony (Revelation 12:11). Receive all divine blessings associated with the Word in every sphere of your life even now and forevermore in Jesus name. AMEN!


Prayer: Your word is a lamb to my feet and a light to my path O God. I appreciate the presence of the Word in my life. I pray the Holy Spirit to continually align me in the will of Your Word even if it hurts my will. I tap into all heavenly blessings embedded in my association with the Word. This I ask 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...

DEVOTION ~ JUDGING RIGHTEOUSLY

-
Theme: Judging Righteously Text: Genesis 38:26 26 So Judah acknowledged them and said, “She has been more righteous than I because I did not give her to Shelah my son.” And he never knew her again. Previous devotion taught us that Tamar sent the pledge Judah gave her to him to identify the owner. Upon receiving the items Judah acknowledged his wrong. Judah did not allow pride or ego to cloud his judgment but rather pointed to the role he played in leading Tamar to take such a drastic step to get pregnant. Dear beloved in the Lord, don't be quick to point people's wrong without considering yours. Let us learn from Judah to never push blame to others if we are guilty. Let us Pray: Almighty God, forgive me for employing the full rigour of the law on defaulters but failing to in my own case. Grant me sound judgment to act righteously. This I ask in the Name of Jesus Christ. AMEN!

COMMAND YOUR WEEK

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!
