DEVOTION ~ THE KAIROS HOUR

-
Theme: The Kairos Hour  
Text: John 2:1-4

2 On the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. 2 Now both Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding. 3 And when they ran out of wine, the mother of Jesus said to Him, “They have no wine.” 4 Jesus said to her, “Woman, what does your concern have to do with Me? My hour has not yet come.”


Often we receive invitations from friends and family members to join them either in their happy moments or even when sorrowful. Likewise do we also throw such invitations to them. An invitation was extended to the blessed virgin Mary, Jesus and his disciples to a wedding in Cana. This invitation was honored by them and they played a significant role at the feast. 

The feast in Cana had a challenge of running out of wine. The blessed virgin Mary intervened by informing Jesus about the challenge. Dear beloved in the Lord, we ought to be concerned about other people's well-being and their dignity. It will be too embarrassing and stressful to inform the groom or the bride there is no wine. We need to step in for each other in any capacity we can to ensure we offer the needful help. 

There's time and season for everything under the sun. We ought to know when the said time for our shift comes. It is only by the power of the Holy Spirit can we tell the kairos moments of our lives. Jesus knew just when to act, He does not need instructions from anyone. If only we can confidently go to Jesus, then we can tell Him our concerns and how His intervention matters. We may fail in our chronos but if faith abounds in us, we will make it without fail in the kairos. 


Prayer: Thank You Almighty God for another great day. I invite You to every area of my life and ask that You intervene to bring about my healing, restoration, breakthroughs and testimonies. This I pray 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!
