DEVOTION ~ HIDDEN IN GOD'S QUIVER

-
Theme: Hidden in God's Quiver
Text: Isaiah 49:1-2

49 “Listen, O coastlands, to Me,
And take heed, you peoples from afar!
The Lord has called Me from the womb;
From the matrix of My mother He has made mention of My name. 2 And He has made My mouth like a sharp sword; In the shadow of His hand He has hidden Me, and made Me a polished shaft; In His quiver He has hidden Me.”



Identifying ourselves with the Lord should be done publicly for all to know who we are in this world. As light cannot be hidden, so we also cannot hide the faith we profess. The Lord has called us right from the womb of our mothers'. Even before we saw the light of day, God has been faithful to identify us uniquely as His own. There's no soul on earth that's formed in the absence of God. Even the children of the wicked are known to the Lord. 

The Lord has called us by name, and given us power to overcome. The power of life and death lies in the tongue, we as children of God have the Word of God on our lips. The Word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. This great anointing is upon us so, we speak with authority over our destiny. 

Dear beloved in the Lord, in His Hands has He kept and preserved us who are called His own. When we are in God's Hands, He makes us divine instruments for use. God has polished us to make us stand tall in every capacity we serve. In His quiver He had hidden us so he can send us out boldly to quench the works of wicked when need be. Being in the quiver of the Lord, is an opportunity for us to be used to bring solace to the wearied souls of this earth. 


Prayer: Thank You God for choosing me as an instrument in Your Hands. I avail myself for duty, use me as You so desire Lord. May the Holy Spirit empower me to accomplish every task to Your glorification 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!"
