Devotional - 12th May 2020

'Let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed'  (James 1:6).

Christ says, "What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them and ye shall have them" ( Mark 11:24).
We see here that prayer and faith goes together. You can't truly have one without the other. The things we ask God for must be what He has promised, and whatever we receive must be used in doing His will. God wants us to come to Him convinced both that He is the one true source of wisdom, and that the wisdom He gives us is trustworthy. He wants us to be ready to act upon faith. James said, the person who doubts God's wisdom, is like a wave in the wind storm being tossed every way. So anyone who comes to God with unsettled convictions and hopes, is liable to be driven about by every new feeling that may spring up in his mind. When you lack confidence in God's faithfulness you'll manifest a lack of consistency in your life. When we ask in faith we must believe that God hears our prayers; if we doubt it leads to unbelief.  Forms of unbelief includes, complaining about our circumstances,  blaming others, questioning God - power and ability; or trying to punish God because He didn't respond in the way we had requested - our contributions and prayers. We need to have confidence in God, to believe without a doubt that He will do as He has promised. If you seek wisdom ask with confidence,  that the Almighty God, the Creator of all that there is, has promised to give you wisdom. If our faith is as small as a mustard seed, we can remove mountains. Today, make your prayer life counts. Prayer with faith are powerful tools, so use them. God bids you come apart and commune with Him. Be still and know that He is God. Surrender your whole life to God as you put your trust in Him.

Have a wonderful day 🌹🌹

 Devotional 'The Lord is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed' (Psalm 28:8). The Lord our God is the glory of our strength, and in His name we shall rejoice all the day. The Lord is our strength, and the saving strength of His anointed. It is through Christ our anointed that all our blessings come to us. Here we see David, who is a type of our Lord Jesus, praising God. What about you? Christ had done much for us and has achieved full salvation for us, therefore, praise Him! We, like Israel are encouraged that the Lord is our Strength and salvation. When we seek to be in a  relationship with God, He will protect us from our enemies and save us from the crutches of Satan. Just as how Satan attempts to destroy Christ many times, whilst he was on earth, God  saved him and will do the same for us. Christ died to save us all, but it is those who trust Him and have a saving relationship with him that will spend eternity with. He is our High Priest, and J...

 'I protest by your rejoicing  which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily' (1 Corinthians 15:31). Christ our Lord came and died for each and everyone to save us from the bondage of sin. He lived on this earth, ministered to the needs of all who He encountered; He was crucified, and resurrected and is now interceding for us, as our High Priest in Heaven. What if there was no resurrection? What would be the implications for God's people? The preaching of the gospel would be a lie, our faith would be worthless and we would all have remained in our sin. Paul is saying, there would be no cause to his dying daily, or for any one who believed and accept Jesus as their personal Saviour to die daily. Paul was expecting death at any time for Christ's sake. He was constantly in peril of his life, he encountered extreme sufferings and was beset with death. He was willing to die at anytime and in any way for Christ's sake. He did not count his life dear unto himself, but...

 'The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing' (Zephaniah 3 17). What an amazing and wonderful God we serve, who is mighty to save. The Lord our God is with us and is mighty to save. He will take great delight in us and will quiet us with his love, and also rejoice over us with singing. We didn't have to do anything for God to love us, he did because he created us and we are His. He created us and loves us just as we are. Even when we did not deserve it, the Lord took delight in us. What an awesome God! He is present in the midst of us, loving and caring for us. He protects and defend us; died to save us from sin, so we can have life and have it more abundant. He is mighty to save us from fears; our enemies and the bondage of sin and death. We all need a Saviour, Christ the Lord, who is the cure for our problems and the antidote to sin. Christ has already won ...
