SPEAK GOD’S LANGUAGE: Daily Devotional

Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual (1 Corinthians 2:13).

At Galatians 4:1-2, the Bible says, “Now I say that while the heir is a child, he is no different from the servant, though he is lord of all things; but is under governors and governors until the time appointed by the Father.” An heir is one to whom an inheritance has been bequeathed, a rightful heir to a state or position of high authority and wealth.

However, as long as the heir is a child, this is no different than a servant. The word translated "child" is "nēpios", one who cannot speak properly or communicate wisely. One can be forty years old in Christianity and still be a “nēpios”; can't form the right words in the spirit realm.

Yes, the Word says that we are heirs of God and are united with them in Christ, but "Nepios" cannot live the life of an heir. 1 Corinthians 3:21 says, "...all things are thine"; but they suffer all their lives because they have not matured spiritually. They use wrong terms because they have never learned God's language.

The way to learn and speak God's language is to study and meditate on the Word of God. Our main verse says we must speak the words the Holy Spirit teaches, words of wisdom from the Spirit and through the Spirit. So train yourself in the Word of God and keep the Word in your heart and on your lips always, no matter the circumstances.

His Plans Are Good - Daily Devotional

Verse: Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV) "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Devotional: Today, let us take comfort in the assurance that our heavenly Father has plans for us, plans that are filled with goodness and hope. It's easy to become anxious or uncertain about the future, but God's Word reminds us that His intentions for our lives are nothing short of remarkable. In Jeremiah 29:11, we discover a promise that speaks directly to our hearts. God is not a distant observer of our lives; He is intimately involved, and His plans for us are purposeful. Even when circumstances appear challenging, we can trust that God's intentions are for our ultimate well-being. In times of uncertainty, we often question what the future holds. However, God invites us to place our trust in Him, the One who knows the end from the beginning. As we do so, we can find peace in the know...

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. As you begin your day, consider the goodness of God in the light of your own life. Think about the moments when His goodness has been evident, whether through answered prayers, unexpected blessings, or moments of divine guidance. God's goodness surrounds us, and even in challenges, there is a purpose that unfolds through His love. In times of joy, acknowledge the goodness of God with gratitude.

STAND STILL: Daily Devotional

“Listen, all you of Judah and you inhabitants of Jerusalem, and you, King Jehoshaphat! Thus says the Lord to you: ‘Do not be afraid nor dismayed because of this great multitude, for the battle is not yours, but God’s. . . You will not need to fight in this battle. Position yourselves, stand still and see the salvation of the Lord, who is with you, O Judah and Jerusalem!’ Do not fear or be dismayed; tomorrow go out against them, for the Lord is with you.” - 2 Chronicles 20:15, 17 INSPIRATION When King Jehoshaphat and the little tribe of Judah were besieged on all fronts by three powerful and bloody armies advancing rapidly towards Jerusalem (2 Chron. 20), the king began to seek the Lord and pray with hope before the entire congregation of Judah. This is when the Spirit of the Lord came upon Jahaziel, who spoke the words of the Lord which we read in today's Scripture. When Judah heard these words of hope, he humbled himself before the Lord, bowing to him and worshipping him....
