DEVOTION ~ LIVING WATER

-
Theme: Living Water 
Text: John 7:37-39

37 On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. 38 He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.” 39 But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.



As humans, we have both spiritual and physical needs. The physical needs can easily be satisfied by ourselves or depend on others for it. However, the spiritual needs can solely be satisfied by the Holy Spirit. The voice of Christ is calling to all who thirst spiritually to come to Him. Anyone who willingly draws nearer to Christ to quench his spiritual thirst shall have a heart flowing with rivers of living water.

This flow of rivers of living water is the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is with us who believe in the name of the Lord. For our Christ has been glorified; suffered the death on the cross, was buried, raised from the dead and is now seated with God in glory. The Holy Spirit possesses the fruit of the Spirit and diverse gifts that He endows on anyone who walks in the path of the Lord. He transforms and renews our heart and mind to the things of God. Are you spiritually empty and thirsty? Invite the Holy Spirit now.



Prayer: Come O Holy Spirit and fill our hearts with the fruit of the Spirit and divine gifts from heaven. As You dwell in us, make us possess Your nature to live worthy of our calling in the Lord. This we pray in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. 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!"
