Topic: Once upon a milk: A Sceptre of Righteousness

Highlight:

like newborn babies [you should] long for the pure milk of the word, so that by it you may be nurtured and grow in respect to salvation [its ultimate fulfillment], 1 Peter 2:2

It is time to exhibit deliberate choice to leave behind the immature, self-centered behaviors of our past and embrace a Christ-like way of living, characterized by love, humility, and self-sacrifice.

Nourishment through God's Word feeds your soul. The richness of the Word not only provides the necessary ingredients you need to survive and thrive but also contains healing properties.

We should endeavour to grow through nourishment provided from the wisdom of Christ Jesus by the word he gives to establish us in a healthy spirit.

The Wisdom of Jesus Christ is like a press conference, in which Jesus answers all the questions about God and salvation that the disciples could think of.

You can find some of this wisdom by reading and digesting Matthew 5&6, etc these are only few of numerous chapters of the whole Bible that points to the wisdom of Christ. It is the wisdom of Christ that will give you the Sceptre (authority) of Righteousness approved by God.

Do you love Christ? Are you living by His wisdom?

You are the light for the whole world. A city built on top of a hill cannot be hidden,
Matthew 5:14

Prayer: Father of light, give me the wisdom of Jesus Christ to have my Sceptre of Righteousness in which you approved. Amen

The Need For Sanctuary Cleansing

Topic: The Need for Sanctuary Cleansing

Highlight:

But whoever is united with the Lord is one with him in spirit. 1 Corinthians 6:17

The whole earth belongs to the Lord. Everybody who lives in the world and all the things in it belong to him. Psalms 24:1 ☆
There was a seal in heaven. The lion of the tribe of Judah opened the seal.

The beings that are alive and the leaders sang a new song. They sang: ‘You are so good! You are good enough to take the book. You can break its seals and open it. You can do this because they killed you. When you died, you bought people for God with your blood. You bought them from every tribe, from every language and every nation. You have caused them to belong to the kingdom of our God. You have made them priests, so that they serve God. And they will rule on the earth.’ Revelation 5:9‭-‬10 EASY

Are you aware that whoever surrender his life to be purchased by the blood of Jesus to God has become God's sanctuary. Those people who are born again were purchased from their own self-centered and self-lordship life. So who got the price? You know that our Lord Jesus Christ is very kind. He was rich, but he made himself poor to help you. So then, because he became poor, you could become rich.
2 Corinthians 8:9 EASY

So Jesus unites us with God, so God now sees us as pleasant people so He will turn us to His sanctuary. Remember this: Your body is the home of God's Holy Spirit. God gave his Holy Spirit to you and he lives in you. You do not belong to yourselves any longer. God bought you for himself. He paid the price for you. So use your body to show how great God is. 1 Corinthians 6:19‭-‬20 EASY


Prayer: Dear Heavenly Father I am your Sacred Sanctuary. Please Use my body to show how great you are through the grace of Jesus Christ who bought me with His blood. Amen

Standing Firm against the Devil's Distractions

An Emoji Devotions for Mon. 21 August 2023

Topic: Standing Firm against the Devil's Distractions

Highlight: Matthew 4:10 - "Jesus said to him, 'Away from me, Satan! For it is written: 'Worship the Lord your God and serve him only.'"

Devotional:

As we journey through life, we face countless distractions that seek to derail us from our true purpose and goals. The devil, our adversary, is cunning and relentless in his attempts to hinder our progress. Yet, we find hope and encouragement in the example of Jesus, who triumphed over the devil's schemes. In Matthew 4:10, Jesus responded firmly to the temptations of the devil, refusing to be swayed from His original goal.

The devil recognizes our vulnerabilities and seeks to exploit them through various means. He may offer us alternative options that, from his perspective, appear alluring and promising. These distractions may come in the form of financial gain, popularity, or momentary pleasure. The devil preys on our desires, attempting to steer us away from the path God has set for us.

However, Jesus teaches us that we have the power to resist and overcome the devil's tactics. He never lost sight of His true purpose, despite the tempting offers presented to Him. Jesus knew His assignment on earth, and He refused to allow the devil to distract Him from fulfilling God's plan.

To discern our own assignment on earth, we must first accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior. By inviting Him into our lives, we open ourselves up to His guidance and direction. Jesus teaches us to seek first the Kingdom of God, prioritizing our relationship with Him above all else. When we align our will with God's will, we gain clarity in understanding our purpose and the tasks He has called us to fulfill.

In our pursuit of fulfilling our God-given assignment, we must be vigilant against the devil's distractions. It is through the strength and power of Jesus that we can overcome these temptations. By relying on His Word, prayer, and the Holy Spirit's leading, we can discern truth from deceit and stand firm against the devil's attempts to divert us from our goals.

Remember, as children of Jesus, we are equipped to combat the devil's schemes. He cannot overpower us when we remain rooted in Christ. Let us allow Jesus to shape our goals and guide our steps, trusting that His plans are far greater than any temporary allure the devil presents.

Take a moment to reflect on your own journey. The devil only gave Jesus four option which represents the four cardinal points. JESUS REJECTS ALL ITS OPTIONS. It should not be more than four minutes and four option with the devil until you send him away and make sure you reject all his option.


Prayer: Tell me Lord Jesus what I need to do when the devil wants to patronise me. I am an inheritor of eternal life from you so I need your Spirit. Dear Lord Jesus help me chase the devil away. make me unreachable to the devil in Jesus name. Right now, Amen
