DEVOTION ~ JUSTICE & RIGHTEOUSNESS

-
Theme: Justice & Righteousness 
Text: Psalm 106:3

3 Blessed are those who keep justice, and he who does righteousness at all times!


Our world is gradually becoming more corrupt than we can imagine. People claim they are not corrupt yet their actions expose them easily. How well do you keep justice? This should be a question you must daily ask yourself in every action you take; is the action appropriate and just? By so doing, you can keep the level of justice high. Justice means living a just behaviour or treatment towards others. A just life ushers you into righteous living. 

The responsibility you must perform but failed to, the one you ought not to do but you did and other bad moves you've taken have made you reduced your score on justice and righteousness. There's blessing that comes with justice likewise punishment for not being just. The blessings from those you've been just to will speak positively in your life. The sigh of those you've denied justice brings curses upon you. Reflect on this now and evaluate whether what you're doing is drawing blessings to you or curses. 


Prayer: Righteous and Just God, stir up my spirit with this nature of Yours. Holy Spirit divine, help me make the right choice in all that I do even 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...

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!
