DEVOTION ~ DIVINE CONFIRMATION

-



Theme: Divine Confirmation
Text: John 10:40-42
40 And He went away again beyond the Jordan to the place where John was baptizing at first, and there He stayed. 41 Then many came to Him and said, “John performed no sign, but all the things that John spoke about this Man were true.” 42 And many believed in Him there.



Life is full of stories and promises. Each day we awake to either one or both but we ought to look for the truth. John the Baptist proclaims He who comes after him will be greater than he (John the Baptist). Some took it as a tale whilst others felt otherwise. In all this, they did not really believe what John said until they encountered the Messiah. Despite John the Baptist being unable to perform any miracles or signs except to lead people to repentance, his words were taken as true because what he said about the Messiah manifested accordingly. This stirred up the faith of many to believe in Jesus. Dear beloved in the Lord, just like John the Baptist, you may not have it all to show people to Christ. However, the most priceless weapon you have is the truth. Let your actions be guided by truth daily so that many will be transformed when it is confirmed. 



Let us Pray: Almighty God, thank You for enlightening me to speak the truth. May I bear true witness to my Saviour in deeds and words so that I can draw many souls to the Kingdom. This I ask in the Name of Jesus Christ. AMEN!

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!"
