Faith In Obedience To God's Word

THE CHOSEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL

DATE :Tuesday 2 June 2020.
TOPIC: Faith In Obedience To God's Word.
TEXT: Gen 22:1-3

MESSAGE
Walking by Faith and not by sight is one of the most stupid acts believers engage themselves. Obedience to and relying on God's word tend to put our reasoning faculties on hold. We need to follow God almost blindly. We are passing through difficulties because we are still very much dependent on our skills, and wisdom. Our wisdom cannot work out the will and glory of God. When God puts us to test, He does not intend to draw us to sin as Satan does. God allowed Job to be tempted that he might appear not only a good man but a great man. Now after all the hardship Abraham had gone through, God allowed sharper temptation. Strong faith is often exercised with strong trials and it is put up on hard surfaces. The information which was a command came without warning and intense confidence only in God who now is trying the heart. "Take  thy son not thy cattle, ram, cow. I must have their son not their servants. Not even that steward and I will not take Sarah either."  It would have been very easy for Abraham to sacrifice himself leaving his son Isaac to fulfill the promise of making him Nations, or has God forgotten his covenant?



 "Take thy son, thy only son Isaac whom the lovest and get thee into the land of Moraih and offer him there for a burnt offering up on the mountains which I will tell the of". Beloved, is it not surprising Abraham fearfully obeyed and did not rebel or give any excuse to justify or argue with God at least for God to know that it is not realistic? But he applied Faith to obedience and wholeheartedly went with God's command even without giving the wife the slightest of the information. Beloved, God's commandments must not be disputed but should be obeyed without consulting flesh and blood about them Good day. 

PRAYER POINTS:
START WITH PRAISE & WORSHIP..
1. Thank God for this new day and for His word.
2. Pray that God should forgive and have mercy on you for your disobedience.
3. Ask God to enable you apply faith to obey God wholeheartedly. 4. Pray God to equip you with the shield of faith to defend and and quench every firey dart from the camp of the enemies.

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...
