DEVOTION ~ ADAM

-
Theme: Adam 
Text: Genesis 3:17-20

17 Then to Adam He said, “Because you have heeded the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree of which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat of it’: “Cursed is the ground for your sake; In toil you shall eat of it all the days of your life. 18 Both thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you, and you shall eat the herb of the field. 19 In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread till you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; For dust you are, and to dust you shall return.” 20 And Adam called his wife’s name Eve, because she was the mother of all living.


In today's devotion, we will be looking at the punishment God gave to Adam. The ground has been cursed because Adam failed to heed to God's command. Disobedience brings curses and sorrows in the life of anyone who is disobedient. The ground of our lives could be a field, career, business, education, marriage, children, health, or any area of our lives. These grounds were not designed to cause us pain, struggle or be hindered, but disobedience has caused them to be so. We need to break away from sin to attract God's divine grace into these grounds of our lives. 

The wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus. The fruit eaten by Adam and Eve does not only grant knowledge of good and evil but also leads to death. However, there's hope if we be in Christ for we shall attain eternal life. The life we live now shall be accounted for, so let us number our days and apply wisdom in all that we do. As Adam named Eve, it is important we learn to also take notes of things happening around us, and declare divine names for our circumstances. The power of the tongue brings either life or death so speak life into your life.


Prayer: Dear God, forgive us for not heeding to Your command and cleanse us by the Blood of Jesus Christ. Thank You for forgiving us, empower us in faith that we may walk continuously in obedience. It is written, You not not give help to angels but unto the seeds of Abraham, we declare divine assistance is locating every ground of our lives and power is changing hands unto the Hands of the Holy Spirit concerning us 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!
