Daily Devotional “Grace To The Humble”

Daily Devotional “Grace To The Humble”
Be different!
March 14, 2023

“He gives a greater grace. Therefore it says, ‘God is opposed to the proud, but gives grace to the humble’” (James 4:6).

A person cannot be saved unless he comes to God with a humble attitude.

Today’s verse is a challenge and a promise to anyone who is not sure about his salvation, or who thinks he is saved but does not measure up to the tests of faith in James’s letter.

Even the worst sinful character traits—relying on worldly wisdom, having enmity against God, lusting after fleshly and selfish desires—are no match for God’s abundant grace.

The kind of grace James is referring to here is simply God’s saving grace—His undeserved favor of forgiveness and love bestowed on all sorts of sinners.

Included within that favor is the Lord’s promise of the Holy Spirit, an understanding of God’s Word, Heaven, and all spiritual blessings. Such grace is available to all who will come in faith to Christ.

Nothing in this universe can prevent the truly humble and repentant person from receiving grace—not the strength of sin and depravity, not the might of Satan, not the pull of the flesh, not even the power of death.

Scripture often links humility with saving faith. That’s why James quoted from Proverbs 3:34 (“God is opposed to the proud”) to support his point in verse 6.

In the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus tells us: “Truly I say to you, unless you are converted and become like children, you shall not enter the kingdom of heaven” (18:3).

If you are confused or doubtful regarding your salvation, just ask yourself, “Have I humbly submitted myself to God in faith and repentance?”

If you have humbled yourself before God, rejoice! You are by definition a believer, one of the humble.

Otherwise, you need to pray with the attitude of the tax gatherer in Luke 18:13, “God, be merciful to me, the sinner!” and receive His abundant grace.

Thank God for His continual grace, which He pours out to those who are humble before Him.

Read James Chapters 1—2.

•What tests of true faith are discussed there?
•How are we to respond to each of them?
•Reflect on your response to these issues in the past. How could you improve?

PRAYERS TO ATTRACT DIVINE AND DESTINY HELPERS

PRAYERS TO ATTRACT DIVINE FAVOUR AND DESTINY HELPERS | Kindly be on your feet while you do midnight prayers Time to pray, 12:00 AM to 4:00 AM

2 Kings 14:26: For the LORD saw the affliction of Israel, which was very bitter; for there was neither bond nor free, nor was there any helper for Israel.

Psalm 54:4: Behold, God is my helper; The Lord is the sustainer of my soul.

Psalm 72:12-13: For he shall deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor also, and him that hath no helper. He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall save the souls of the needy.

Psalm 30:10-11: Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me: LORD, be thou my helper. Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;

Hebrews 13:5-6: Make sure that your character is free from the love of money, being content with what you have; for He Himself has said, “I WILL NEVER DESERT YOU, NOR WILL I EVER FORSAKE YOU,” so that we confidently say, “THE LORD IS MY HELPER, I WILL NOT BE AFRAID.

WHAT WILL MAN DO TO ME?” Destiny helpers are people positioned by Almighty God for favour. When you are surrounded by destiny helpers, things becomes so easy to achieve.

What you have been pursuing for many years can be achieved within a second by destiny helpers.

The divine favour surpasses the favour of men. There is no sorrow or regret ever for divine favour. Divine favour brings eternal joy and progress. Destiny helpers make sure you are favoured before he or she can relax.

They are unique people that aid our progress, and financial breakthrough. They help you succeed and accomplish your destiny very fast.

Suffering is deleted when there is a divine helper for you. Unnecessary delays are buried when there is a divine favour in place.

Embargo are crushed when your life is attracting divine favour. The reason many people are suffering today is because there is no one to help them.

No one to help wholeheartedly. Some destiny helpers can be any person assigned by God to change your status.

It may not necessarily be your life partner or a wealthy person. God has designed our lives to help our neighbours in precarious condition.

Sometimes destiny helper might appear as dirty, stammerer or unorganized person. You might even hate them because of their showing or character.

In most cases, they could be educated people, or very far ahead of you in the areas of education, wisdom, knowledge, experience, finances etc.

Know that not all destiny helpers will be there for you till eternity. Some will be there for only a season and once the season elapses they are gone forever.

The mistake of many people is that they keep pursuing them by calling and visiting them when they have served their purpose in your life. It is not necessary to use prayers to magnetize them.

The God that brought them to you naturally will be there to bring them back if they are yet to fulfill their purposes in your life. However, it is also important to know that if they are only there in your life for temporary or lifetime.

Know that, There are different kinds of destiny helpers with a specialized purpose.
Lifetime destiny helpers
Temporal destiny helpers
Unstable destiny helpers
Destiny helpers for financial support
Destiny helpers for counseling, advises and prayer supports
Destiny helpers for children purposes
Destiny helpers for business and ministry advancement
Destiny helpers for academic success
Destiny helpers for your healing purposes
Destiny helpers for your academic advancement
Destiny helpers for all-round problems etc

Do more of giving out. It could be money, clothes, food to less privileged. If you have been giving in the past, continue and do not give up. Can you help someone today without asking in return?

Daily Devotional “God’s Glory In Christ”

Daily Devotional “God’s Glory In Christ”
Be different!
March 05, 2023

“And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth” (John 1:14).

Christ displayed God’s glory on earth and will again when He comes back. After seeing His glory in Scripture, we should respond in worship and righteousness.

From eternity past Christ had the glory of God. He “is the radiance of [God’s] glory and the exact representation of His nature” (Hebrew. 1:3), and…

He prayed, “And now, glorify Thou Me together with Thyself, Father, with the glory which I ever had with Thee before the world was” (John 17:5).

Christ also displayed God’s glory on earth. Most often He looked like an ordinary man, but one night He appeared in great glory to Peter, James, and John (Luke 9:28-36).

“While He was praying, the appearance of His face became different, and His clothing became white and gleaming” (v. 29). Moses and Elijah came and spoke to Him, and the disciples “saw His glory” (v. 32).

When He comes again, He will come “on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory” (Matthew. 24:30), to the joy of His people and to the terror of those who reject Him. His glory will fill the whole earth (Numbers. 14:21), and all creation will worship Him.

What should be our response to God’s glory? Like the angels who sing, “Glory to God in the highest” (Luke 2:14), we should give Him praise.

Also, as we see His glory we should change: “But we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as from the Lord, the Spirit” (2 Corinthians. 3:18).

As we look at God, the Holy Spirit convicts us of sin and helps us grow and live righteous lives. As “children of God,” we “appear as lights in the world” (Philippians. 2:15).

The purpose of all creation is to glorify God. As a mirror reflects light, we are to reflect His glory to Him and to a sinful world.

Seek to live a holy life so this reflection shines as brightly as possible, and make it your desire to glorify Him in everything you do.

Thank God for the hope of glory we have as we wait for Christ’s return (Titus 2:13). Ask that your life would brightly reflect God’s glory today.

Read about God’s glory in Heaven in Revelation 21:1—22:5. How is His glory displayed?

Daily Devotional “How To Lose Your Joy”

Daily Devotional “How To Lose Your Joy”
Be different!
March 04, 2023

“I have learned to be content in whatever circumstances I am” (Philippians. 4:11).

Discontent and ingratitude will steal your joy.

True joy is God’s gift to every believer, yet many Christians seem to lack it. How can that be? Did God fail them? No.

As with peace, assurance, and other benefits of salvation, joy can be forfeited for many reasons: willful sin, prayerlessness, fear, self-centeredness, focusing on circumstances, and lack of forgiveness are the main culprits.

Two of the most common joy-thieves are dissatisfaction and ingratitude. Both are by-products of the health, wealth, and prosperity mentality of our day.

It has produced a generation of Christians who are more dissatisfied than ever because their demands and expectations are higher than ever.

They’ve lost their perspective on God’s sovereignty and have therefore lost the ability to give thanks in all things.

In marked contrast, when Jesus taught about contentment and anxiety (Matthew. 6:25-34), He spoke of food and clothing—the basic necessities of life.

But preferences, not necessities, are the issue with us. We’re into style, personal appearance, job satisfaction, earning power, bigger homes, and newer cars.

In the name of greater faith we even demand that God supply more miracles, more wealth, and more power.

Amid all that, Paul’s words sound a refreshing note of assurance (genuine hope) and rebuke: “I have learned to be content in whatever circumstances I am” (Philippians. 4:11).

He made no demands on God but simply trusted in His gracious provision. Whether he received little or much made no difference to him. In either case he was satisfied and thankful.

Don’t be victimized by the spirit of our age. See God’s blessings for what they are and continually praise Him for His goodness.

In doing so you will guard your heart from dissatisfaction and ingratitude. More important, you will bring joy to the One who is worthy of all praise.

•Pray that the Holy Spirit will produce in you a joy and contentment that transcends your circumstances.
•Make it a daily practice to thank God for specific blessings and trials, knowing that He uses both to perfect His will in you.

Read 1 Kings 18:1—19:8.

•How did Elijah deal with the false prophets of Baal?
•How did he deal with Jezebel’s threat?
•What caused Elijah’s shift from a spiritual high to a spiritual low?

Daily Devotional “A Prayer For Godliness”

Daily Devotional “A Prayer For Godliness”
Be different!
March 03, 2023

“This I pray” (Philippians. 1:9).

Your prayers reveal the level of your spiritual maturity.

As we come to our study of godliness in Philippians 1:9-11, we note that this passage is a prayer.

Typically, Paul’s prayers reflected his concern that his readers would mature spiritually.

That is impossible without prayer because spiritual growth depends on the Holy Spirit’s power, which is tapped through prayer.

Prayer is so vital that Jesus instructed His disciples to pray at all times (Luke 18:1).

Paul commands us to “pray without ceasing” (1 Thessalonians. 5:17). Peter said we should be “of sound judgment and sober spirit for the purpose of prayer” (1 Peter. 4:7).

Scripture gives many other commands to pray, but the true test of your spirituality is your compulsion to pray, not simply your obedience to commands.

As a Christian you exist in a spiritual realm in which prayer is as natural as breathing is in the natural realm.

Just as atmospheric pressure exerts force on your lungs, compelling you to breathe, so your spiritual environment compels you to pray.

Resisting either brings devastating results.

The more you see life through God’s eyes, the more you are driven to pray.

In that sense your prayers reveal the level of your spiritual maturity.

Paul prayed with urgency day and night because he shared God’s love for His people and His concern for their spiritual maturity.

Examine your own prayers. Do you pray from a sense of duty or are you compelled to pray?
Do you pray infrequently or briefly?
Do your prayers center on your own needs or the needs of others?
Do you pray for the spiritual maturity of others?
Those important questions indicate the level of your spiritual maturity and give guidelines for making any needed changes in your pattern of prayer.

•Thank God for the privilege and power of prayer.
•If you have neglected prayer or if your prayers have been centered on yourself rather than others, confess your sin and ask God to give you a sense of holy urgency in praying as you should.
•Is there someone for whom you should be praying more consistently?

Go Here For God Reveals Truth

Read Daniel 6:1-28.

•What was Daniel’s pattern of prayer?
•What accusation did the political leaders bring against Daniel?
•What was the king’s attitude toward Daniel?
•How did God honor Daniel’s faith?

Daily Devotional “You Are Never Alone”

Daily Devotional “You Are Never Alone”

March 02, 2023

“‘Don’t be afraid,’ the prophet answered.

‘Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.’

And Elisha prayed, ‘Open his eyes, Lord, so that he may see.’

Then the Lord opened the servant’s eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.”

2 Kings 6:16-17

The servant of the prophet Elisha went out for a casual stroll along the top of the walled city.

What he saw made his blood freeze. The morning sun gleamed and flashed from the shields, swords, arrows, and spears of an invading army surrounding the city.

Terrified, he scampered back to report the terrible news.

Elisha’s reply was calm: “Don’t be afraid . . . Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.”

And then the servant “saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.”

What was true for Elisha and his servant is true for every believer. Invisible, spiritual realities surround us.

Holy angels observe and protect us. David wrote, “The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him, and he delivers them.”

So today, remember that there is more to life than what you see with your physical eyes. And know that you are never, ever alone.

Lord, thank you for the presence and protection of your mighty angels.

Thank you for the times they have intervened in my life—turning me, redirecting me, alerting me—when I wasn’t even aware of their help.

I look forward to the day when I will worship you alongside these wonderful fellow servants of Jesus.

Daily Devotional “Avoiding Indiscriminately Love”

Daily Devotional “Avoiding Indiscriminately Love”
Be different!
March 01, 2023

“This I pray, that your love may abound still more and more in real knowledge and all discernment” (Philippians. 1:9).

Christian love operates within the parameters of Biblical knowledge and spiritual discernment.

As a Christian, you are a repository of divine love. More than anything else, your love for God and for other believers marks you as a true disciple of Jesus Christ (John 13:35).

In addition to possessing God’s love, you have the privilege and responsibility of expressing it to others on His behalf. That’s a sacred trust.

Paul qualifies it in Philippians 1:9, which tells us love is to operate within the sphere of biblical knowledge and spiritual discernment. Those are the parameters that govern God’s love.

No matter how loving an act or word might seem, if it violates knowledge and discernment, it is not true Christian love.

Second John 5-11 illustrates that principle. Apparently some believers who lacked discernment were hosting false teachers in the name of Christian love and hospitality.

John sternly warned them, saying, “If anyone comes to you and does not bring [sound doctrine], do not receive him into your house, and do not give him a greeting; for the one who gives him a greeting participates in his evil deeds” (vv. 10-11).

That might sound extreme or unloving but the purity of God’s people was at stake.

In 2 Thessalonians 3:5-6 after praying for the Thessalonians’ love to increase, Paul then commanded them to keep aloof from so- called Christians who were disregarding sound teaching.

That’s not contradictory because Christian love guards sound doctrine and holy living.

Unfortunately, today it is common for Christians to compromise doctrinal purity in the name of love and unity, or to brand as unloving some practices that Scripture clearly commands.

Both are wrong and carry serious consequences if not corrected.

Be thoughtful in how you express your love. Abundantly supply it in accord with biblical knowledge and discernment. Excellence and righteousness will result (Philippians. 1:10-11).

•Thank God for the love He has given you through His Spirit (Romans. 5:5).
•Ask for opportunities to demonstrate Christ’s love to others today.
•Pray that your love will always be governed by deep convictions grounded in God’s truth.

What do the following passages teach about love? How can you apply them to your life? Romans 12:9-10; 5:5; 1 John 4:7-10; Galatians 5:22; 1 Peter 1:22; 4:8.

Daily Devotional “Pursuing Genuine Excellence”

Daily Devotional “Pursuing Genuine Excellence“

February 28, 2023

Download Our Debt Cancellation Prayers Here

“So that you may approve the things that are excellent” (Philippians. 1:10).

In a world of mediocrity and confusion, God calls you to excellence and discernment.

There’s the story of a pilot who came on the loudspeaker mid flight and said, “I have some good news and bad news.

The bad news is we’ve lost all our instrumentation and don’t know where we are.

The good news is we have a strong tail wind and are making great time.”

That’s an accurate picture of how many people live: they have no direction in life but they’re getting there fast!

We as Christians are to be different because we have divine guidance and eternal goals.

Our lives are to be marked by a confident trust in God and a pursuit of spiritual excellence.

“Excellent” in Philippians 1:10 speaks of things that are worthwhile and vital.

Approving what is excellent refers to testing things as one would test a precious metal to determine its purity and value.

It goes beyond knowing good from evil. It distinguishes between better and best.

It involves thinking biblically and focusing your time and energy on what really counts.

It involves cultivating spiritual discipline and not being controlled by your emotions, whims, moods, or circumstances.

Many organizations and businesses have adopted the motto, “Commitment to Excellence” to convey their desire to provide the finest product or service possible.

If secular-minded people strive for that level of achievement, how much more should Christians pursue excellence for the glory of God!

Look at your life. Is it filled with godly love, discernment, and the pursuit of excellence—or has worldly trivia crowded out those virtues?

•Read Isaiah 12:1-6 as a psalm of praise to the God of excellence.
•Ask God to give you a heart constantly set on pursuing excellence for His glory.

Daniel was a man who pursued excellence. Read Daniel 1:1—2:21.

•What was Daniel’s decision regarding the king’s food and wine, and how did he handle the situation?

•How did Daniel and his three friends compare in wisdom and understanding to the magicians and conjurers?

•What principles do you see in those two chapters that apply to your life?

“In order to be sincere and blameless until the day of Christ” (Philippians. 1:10).

Seek to have a life that bears scrutiny.

In our society, those whose lives are marked by moral soundness, uprightness, honesty, and sincerity are usually thought of as people of integrity.

However, society’s standards often fall far short of God’s.

Spiritual integrity calls for the highest possible standard of behavior and requires supernatural resources available only to those who trust in Him.

Paul’s prayer in Philippians 1:9-10 outlines the path to spiritual integrity.

It begins with love that abounds with knowledge and discernment (v. 9) and progresses to the pursuit of excellence (v. 10).

The result is sincerity and blamelessness—two characteristics of godly integrity.

The Greek word translated “sincere” in verse 10 speaks of genuineness and authenticity.

It literally means “without wax” and is an allusion to the practice of inspecting pottery by holding it up to the sunlight.

In ancient times pottery often cracked during the firing process.

Rather than discarding cracked pieces, dishonest dealers often filled the cracks with wax and sold them to unsuspecting customers.

Holding a pot up to the sunlight revealed any flaws and protected the customer from a bad purchase.

Following that analogy, biblical integrity requires that you be without wax, having no hypocrisy or secret sins that show up when you’re under pressure or facing temptation.

“Blameless” speaks of consistency in living a life that doesn’t lead others into error or sin.

Your standard is the same away from church as it is at church.

Being blameless isn’t easy in a world that unashamedly flaunts its sinful practices.

You must guard against losing your sensitivity to the heinousness of sin and unwittingly beginning to tolerate or even accept the sin that once shocked you.

That’s when you lose integrity and begin to cause others to stumble.

Diligently pursue integrity with a view toward glorifying Christ in all things until He returns!

•Thank God that He is able to keep you from stumbling and to make you stand in His presence blameless with great joy (Jude 24).
•Prayerfully guard your heart and mind from the subtle evil influences that can erode your integrity and make you ineffective for the Lord.

Genesis 39.

•How was Joseph’s integrity challenged?
•How did God honor Joseph’s commitment to integrity?

“The one who does not love does not know God, for God is love” (1 John 4:8).

God’s love is unconditional and righteous.

We hear a lot today about love from books, magazines, TV, and movies.

If you didn’t know any better, you’d think that our society is the most loving on earth.

Much of the “love,” though, is nothing more than lust masquerading as love, or selfishness disguised as kindness.

But today’s verse tells us that “God is love”; the character of God defines love.

To clear up any confusion about love, we need only to look at who God is. And then, of course, we need to seek to love others as God loves us.

First, God’s love is unconditional and unrequited. “God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans. 5:8).

God loved us when we were sinners, when we had no righteousness and we didn’t—and couldn’t—love Him back.

God doesn’t love us because we deserve it or because we love Him, but because it’s His nature to love.

God’s love doesn’t mean He winks at sin, though.

Just as earthly fathers discipline sinning children, “those whom the Lord loves He disciplines, and He scourges every son whom He receives” (Hebrews. 12:6).

True love doesn’t indulge unrighteousness, it confronts it.

This kind of tough love isn’t always fun, but it’s for the best: “All discipline for the moment seems not to be joyful, but sorrowful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness” (v. 11).

We’ll study God’s love more later on, but now it’s only natural to examine how we ourselves are doing in demonstrating love.

Is our love unconditional, or do we withhold love from those who hurt us?

Do we love only those who love us back?

Jesus says, “If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you?

For even sinners love those who love them” (Luke 6:32).

Loving those who love us is easy. Christ loved those at enmity with Him, and He expects us to love our enemies too.

Thank God for His great love toward us and for its greatest manifestation in the Person of Christ.

First John has much to say about God’s love for us and our love for Him and others. Read the entire book, noting each instance of the word love.
