Count Not It As Strange Experience

MEDITATION

James 1:1-15
Don't count it a strange experience please

1. The reality v2.
You will at one time or the other experience divers (not just one) situations that will tend to shake your faith John 16:33.
2. The righteousness v2,12.
This is different from temptations to sin. Believers are not to fall into temptations but we will fall into trials. We are not to endure temptations but to resist them; we are to endure trials. No sinner will experience a trial of faith because they don't have saving faith.
3. The rationale v3.
Trials of faith are permitted by God to try, test, toughen and make your faith triumphant in troublous times.



4. The roughness v8.
It is a rough experience that will expose your hypocrisy and unfaithfulness, if you don't have genuine faith, thereby propelling you to seek for the real experience.
5. The radiance v2.
Radiate the joy of the Lord without despondency because trials show that God is interested in pulling you out of the register  of hypocrites and ordinary Christians.
6. The rightness
Every believer will experience it because there is no success without scrutiny, triumph without test, divine promotion without definite purification.
7. The result
Perfection of grace and character needed to fully enjoy and be used of God to the fullest.
8. The rule v4.
You must endure to the end if you want to enjoy the full blessings and benefits.
9. The resource vv5-7.
Always ask for wisdom and grace to sail through with joy.
10. The reward v12.
Eternal reward, including the crown of life, will be given to the triumphant.
Thank you God because trial of faith will not crush me and it is for my good🙏
Holy Spirit, ever give me joy of the Lord to radiate His glory whenever I am tried🙏
I hereby ask for grace and strength to always overcome all my trials and endure to the end🙏
Lord, I ask for the joy of the Lord, which the world cannot take away, for those passing through trials of faith in the Church🙏

Heart Not Garment - 2

"Rend your heart, and not your garments." --Joel 2:13 Apart from vital godliness all religion is utterly vain; offered without a sincere heart, every form of worship is a solemn sham and an impudent mockery of the majesty of heaven. HEART-RENDING is divinely wrought and solemnly felt. It is a secret grief which is personally experienced, not in mere form, but as a deep, soul-moving work of the Holy Spirit upon the inmost heart of each believer. It is not a matter to be merely talked of and believed in, but keenly and sensitively felt in every living child of the living God. It is powerfully humiliating, and completely sin-purging; but then it is sweetly preparative for those gracious consolations which proud un-humbled spirits are unable to receive; and it is distinctly discriminating, for it belongs to the elect of God, and to them alone.

It Doesn't Matter

Shalom! Child of God, it doesn't matter where sugarcane is planted, it will definitely be sweet.  Light always Chase away darkness both in the physical and in the spiritual. I decree and declare  today and always that, you will never taste bitterness, sorrow, sadness, failure and shame this month. Your life will be filled with joy and happiness. Everything God Almighty has created will work in your favour In Jesus Name. Much love

The True Picture Of The Church Today II

THE CHOSEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL DATE: Sunday 7th, June 2020. TOPIC: The True Picture Of The Church Today II TEXT: Rev. 3:15  MESSAGE "I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot".Vs 15, so then because thou art lukewarm, neither cold nor hot, I will spew thee out of my mouth. Lukewarmness and indifference in religion is the worst tempter in the world. The husband of a lukewarm wife is always confused as he would not know when and how to please the wife. So are members of the church whose heart cannot be determined. They are between two opinions. We also have these in the church because they are high minded and proud, they have unknowingly overlooked the necessity of their souls as they gorgeously dressed up in Costly apparel at the expense and decay of their souls, making them to be wretched poor and miserable.  Also there is the state of blindness which the devil is using against the church today which has made them very weak and defensele...
