DEVOTION ~ FULFILMENT IN FAITH

Theme: Fulfillment in Faith 
Text: Hebrews 11:39&40

39 And all these, having obtained a good testimony through faith, did not receive the promise, 40 God having provided something better for us, that they should not be made perfect apart from us.


It's been a long and fulfilling time studying about faith in Hebrews eleven. We have learnt a lot about men and women of faith and how we can also be encouraged to remain in faith. However, though they received approval of their faith, yet the promise in Christ Jesus was not made manifested in their days. This is because, God has the whole human race in His mind and heart to redeem, not just a fraction or section of it. He wants even the Gentiles to be partakers of the promise fulfilled in Christ Jesus. (Galatians 3:13&14)

God has a reason for us to be partakers of the promise fulfilled in Christ Jesus. The complete perfection of these men and women cannot be without God's loving grace locating every soul. God wants to extend His tentacles to every soul whether Jewish or Gentile. So that, there will be no distinction once we all come under the promise in Christ Jesus. God doesn't take pleasure in the death of the wicked, He always want to ensure the wicked are saved from their evil ways. (Ezekiel 18:23; 33:11) 

Dear beloved in the Lord, by the mercies of God in Christ Jesus, every promise of God for our lives will manifest without fail when we employ faith. By faith, we will enjoy the fulfillment of every bit of God's promise in all areas of our lives. Faith must speak in all situations if we employ it fervently in prayer.


Prayer: Thank You Father, for the insight about faith these few days. Lord, increase my faith and strengthen me in the power of the Holy Spirit to walk the talk of faith in all areas of my life. As I am moved in faith, I decree the establishment of God's promises in my life and the pulling down of barriers to the manifestation of these promises. I enjoy favour, grace and all heavenly blessings in every area of my life even now and forevermore in Jesus' name have I prayed. 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!"
