CONNECT WITH YOUR FAITH: Daily Devotional

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ (Ephesians 1:3).

The apostle Paul let us know in our opening verse that we have been blessed with all spiritual blessings in Christ. He reinforces the idea at 1 Corinthians 3:21 when he says, "...all things are thine." Similarly, the apostle Peter tells us that "...the divine power hath given us all things of life and godliness..." (2 Peter 1:3 NIV).

It is one thing to know that you have been blessed with and in all things, but it is quite another to actually own the blessings.

The key is to connect with your faith; this is what Abraham did.

In Genesis 17:5 NIV God said to him: “…I have made you the father of many nations.” Abraham associated with his faith; it had to do with his mind's eye.

The Bible says that Abraham believed God and it was credited to him for righteousness. He believed because he visualized the reality of his children while trying to count the stars (Genesis 15:5). By faith he saw and accepted the reality of God's Word in his spirit, spoke it and it happened. Romans 4:20-22 says: “He doubted not the promise of God through unbelief; but he was strengthened in faith, and gave glory to God; And firmly convinced that he could keep what he had promised. And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.”

Learn to visualize and record God's provision for you in Christ Jesus. Refuse to waver from unbelief in God's Word; Take control of your blessings in your mind first and speak them forward.

The Goodness of God - Daily Devotional

Verse: Psalm 100:5 (NIV) - "For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations." Devotional: Today, let us reflect on the profound truth that God is good. His goodness is not contingent on our circumstances, but it remains constant, unwavering, and eternal. In Psalm 100:5, we are reminded that the Lord's goodness is inseparable from His enduring love, and His faithfulness transcends generations.

Are You Being Led by the Spirit?: Daily Devotional

“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.” Romans 8:14 (KJV) Being led by the Spirit of God depends on knowing the voice of the Spirit. The Holy Spirit is a person, meaning that He is a divine personality having the attributes of a person. Therefore, He speaks, sees, feels, and expresses feelings as we do (John 16:13-14). He only speaks the Word of God, so it's easy to hear his voice as you meditate on the scriptures daily. Constantly feeding on God's Word and meditating on it daily builds your heart and makes it easier for you to listen to when He speaks to you. When he speaks, you will feel it in your spirit and know that he is speaking to you; it is an experience that can be confirmed with the Word of God. Knowing how to be led by the Spirit is part of maturity, and God wants each of His children to be led by His Spirit. If you are led by the Spirit of God you will not be disappointed; You will always experience peace, joy, prosperity and vi...

A LIFE OF PEACE: Daily Devotional

For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace - (Romans 8:6). Don't you just love the scriptures? Remember what we just read: It is said that if you have a carnal spirit, it will lead you to death. But if you have a spiritual mind, you will have life and peace. Easy writing; but absolutely profound! So take a look at your life; Do you live a hectic life? Is your life without peace? When people are nervous, distressed, disturbed and confused, it is because they don't have a spiritual mindset. The word is clear: if you have a spiritual mind, you will have life and peace. A spiritual or carnal mind is about the work of your mind, where you focus your attention. Carnally minded people only react to the things of this world; they are ruled by the flesh. Your focus should always be on the Word of God and the eternal realities of the Kingdom. In this way, in the midst of trouble and chaos, you will always have peace, a life without turmoil! I...
