COMPONENTS OF THE DEVOTIONAL LIFE

TEXT: MATTHEW 4:1-4                                                                      

Key verse: 2 Timothy 2:15-Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

You must devote and consecrate all to Jesus. This means that you should come holistically to the Bible. God requires you to do all: When you do this... then shall thou make thy way prosperous. The level you want your Christian life to be is in your hands. The level of your progress is in your hand. When you fast and you do not pray, it will not work because you have done one and neglected the other.

Matthew 4:1-4

4 Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.

2 And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterwards a hundred.

3 And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.

4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

You must live by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. To know every word that proceeds from the mouth of God, you must study His word. Ezra prepared his heart to seek what is written down. You must do the same today to gain the true knowledge of the living God. Be equipped with the word of God.

Joshua 1:8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have success.

You can only practice or do those things you know. You cannot devote yourself to God when you do not know the God you intend to devote yourself to. Studying the word of God and meditating on it is key to a successful devotional life with God; then thou shall have success. Ignorance of the word of God has made many fail in their Christian life. Some are already in hell due to ignorance of God’s word which affected their devotional life to God. Awake from your slumber and live by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. SHALOM

Thought for the day: Study and live by every word from God

Song for the day: I give You all the glory, I give You honour...

Bible reading for the day: Exodus 27-28; Matthew 21:23-46

THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THURSDAY 30 DECEMBER THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS TEXT: NUMBERS 14: 26-31  Key verse: Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many  be called, but few chosen. Completion of the angelic message: The Lord continued. “Because of this mandate given to you, I am removing around you the uncircumcised leaders. I am going to fill their place with righteous and holy leaders from various nations and races.” Truly I had pondered if any minister has suffered like this. People I loved, cherished and lived peacefully with suddenly began to speak evil against me to my shock. Well, it happens in politics, but is limited to their countries, whereas mine is international! Yes, some ministers may have suffered these things, but that was before the advent of the Internet, so their sufferings were limited. Maybe through letters or newspapers for a limited time, but my own is in the world of the I...
