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

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE Daily Devotional EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING  _BY_ *PASTOR PAUL RIKA*  Int'l Director        (Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide) THURSDAY NOVEMBER 1 , 2018  _TOPIC:_    *YOU WILL SUCCEED AS CHRIST DID BY PRAYER*           TEXT: John 16: 23-24. KEY VERSE: It came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said, Lord, teach us how to pray as John taught his disciples. Luke 11: 1. When Jesus Christ came to us in the flesh, He went into the business of prayer because He was promoting the attribute of God as a prayer-answering God. He would not render that attribute idle or redundant. Nobody knew how John did it, but Jesus reveals here that the success you saw in the ministry of John the Baptist, the victory you saw in his ministry, is because he was a prayer man. John so much valued prayer. He saw the essentials of pr...
