DEVOTION ~ DOUBTING NOTHING

-



Theme: Doubting Nothing  

Text: Acts 10:19&20

19 While Peter thought about the vision, the Spirit said to him, “Behold, three men are seeking you. 20 Arise, therefore, go down and go with them, doubting nothing; for I have sent them.”


In yesterday's devotion, we learned that Peter was perplexed about the trance he had, and just then the men Cornelius sent arrived at where he was lodging. The text for today concerns the voice of the Holy Spirit instructing Peter. The Holy Spirit is our guide and He instructs us in truth therefore we need not doubt His leadings. He was right to inform Peter that three men were seeking to meet him downstairs. Cornelius sent three men; two of his household servants and a devout soldier to go quickly and ask Peter to come to his house. The Holy Spirit enlightens us that, it is not Cornelius that sent these men but rather He did. Dear beloved in the Lord, the Holy Spirit can use anyone to relay a message to us so we must learn not to underrate anybody. Peter is to go with them without doubting although he does not know where he is even being sent to. We must never challenge the directions of the Holy Spirit with doubts for doubts punch holes in our faith bags. If we avail ourselves of the service of God faithfully and zealously, we will also experience this awesome encounter in whatever we do because the Holy Spirit will divinely lead the way and we shall never make mistakes along the way. When the Holy Spirit takes absolute control of our lives, we need to possess a heart of doubting nothing. 


Let us Pray: Holy Spirit of truth and light, guide me every step of the way as I pilgrim this earth in my marriage, nurturing of children, family decisions, education, career, ministry, businesses, projects, and every sphere of my life. Give me a believing heart to trust You in all things doubting nothing. This I ask in the Name of 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...

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!
