Word Devotion - Be Strong In The Lord!

Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Ephesians 6:10 (KJV)

Applying the Word of God in faith produces good results. The Word of God cannot fail because He is God. The children of God are the hope of God on earth; without them the world will be filled with darkness, wickedness and sin. The Christian life is a promising life full of the goodness and blessings of God that is why the devil and his demons are waging several attacks on Christians all over the world. 

Dear beloved, you are at the right place if you are in Christ. Be determined to grow and be strong in the Lord through studying and meditation on God’s Word, prayer, fasting, fellowship, and self-encouragement. Make good of the power of the Holy Spirit in you and be strong to put the devil where he belongs and continue to shine to the glory of God. Hallelujah! Be An Overcomer!

Evening Devotion - Thy Love Is Better Than Wine

 Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth: for thy love is better than wine.  
— Song of Solomon 1:2

Nothing gives the believer so much joy as fellowship with Christ. He has enjoyment as others have in the common mercies of life, he can be glad both in God’s gifts and God’s works; but in all these separately, yea, and in all of them added together, he doth not find such substantial delight as in the matchless person of his Lord Jesus. He has wine which no vineyard on earth ever yielded; He has bread which all the corn-fields of Egypt could never bring forth. Where can such sweetness be found as we have tasted in communion with our Beloved?

In our esteem, the joys of earth are little better than husks for swine compared with Jesus, the heavenly manna. We would rather have one mouthful of Christ’s love, and a sip of His fellowship, than a whole world full of carnal delights. What is the chaff to the wheat? What is the sparkling paste to the true diamond? What is a dream to the glorious reality? What is time’s mirth, in its best trim, compared to our Lord Jesus in his most despised estate? If you know anything of the inner life, you will confess that our highest, purest, and most enduring joy must be the fruit of the tree of life which is in the midst of the Paradise of God.

Word Devotion - Do You Know The God You Serve?

And I brought you into a plentiful country, to eat the fruit thereof and the goodness thereof; but when ye entered, ye defiled my land, and made mine heritage an abomination. Jeremiah 2:7 (KJV) 

Familiarity breeds contempt. The children of Israel started well with God when they entered the Promised Land but along the way they drifted and defiled themselves. They were a holy nation onto God and were expected to make holiness their lifestyle. 

Dear beloved, if you are born again, you are a holy nation and a peculiar person onto God, 1 Peter 2:9. Live your life like our Lord Jesus Christ. Don’t ever desire the things of the world neither the habits nor character of the ungodly; if you do, you will be drifted into their lifestyle and defile yourself and God will not be happy with you. If you do not repent then you will lose your heritage or inheritance in Christ. May the Lord guide and protect you to live a holy life in His Promised Land! Hallelujah! Be An Overcomer!

Morning Devotion - The Iniquity Of The Holy Things


And it shall be upon Aaron's forehead, that Aaron may bear the iniquity of the holy things, which the children of Israel shall hallow in all their holy gifts; and it shall be always upon his forehead, that they may be accepted before the LORD. — Exodus 28:38

What a veil is lifted up by these words, and what a disclosure is made! It will be humbling and profitable for us to pause awhile and see this sad sight. The iniquities of our public worship, its hypocrisy, formality, lukewarmness, irreverence, wandering of heart and forgetfulness of God, what a full measure have we there! Our work for the Lord, its emulation, selfishness, carelessness, slackness, unbelief, what a mass of defilement is there! Our private devotions, their laxity, coldness, neglect, sleepiness, and vanity, what a mountain of dead earth is there! If we looked more carefully we should find this iniquity to be far greater than appears at first sight.
