Choose to Serve God

Text: _now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee_ (Job 22:21)

You need to build a closer relationship with God.  Learn to enjoy a close walk with God.  If you read your Bible only on Sundays when you go to church, and after that, you close it until next Sunday, you can’t build a closer relationship with God.  If you eat your earthly food three times daily, why do you think you can go without spiritual food for a whole day? I see God releasing grace upon you to be able to practice His Word. You need to find a place to serve God in the church. There are several units in the church where you can serve God. Don’t just be a benchwarmer in the church; God rewards only labourers. He doesn’t reward benchwarmers or onlookers. If you don’t belong to any unit or wing that is contributing something to the Kingdom of God, go and join one; stop sitting down in church and ‘warming the bench’. From today, be a contributing member in the body of Christ. As you keep doing that, God will keep rewarding you in the name of Jesus Christ!

If as a single for example, you find it difficult to pray, read your Bible, attend fellowship or be in service in the Kingdom and if your heart is not panting after God, the chances that you will develop these habits after marriage are slim.  No serious-minded believer will want to go into a relationship with an unserious Christian. The Word of God says: But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you (Matthew 6:33). I want you to know that a good husband or a good wife is an addition.  Find a place, therefore, to serve God and He will give you the right partner. Choose kingdom service today!

Prayer:
Father, I receive grace to build a firm relationship with You. May I never miss out of You pursuing the wrong things in Jesus’ Name.

This month, I pray for you that you will enjoy supernatural visitation, divine speed,financial breakthroughs, divine connections, divine interventions, etc. The Lord will be your strength this month and beyond in Jesus'Name.

*_In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you._*
John 14:20

*Prayer :*

I praise You for my death to sin. Thank You that You are alive in me and the hope that gives me.

I want You to live in me and I want to live in You. I lay my life before You asking You to inspire me to deny myself and follow You.

Grow my trust and faith in You to honor You who sacrificed to save me. I pray that Your will, not mine, be done.
In Jesus' Name, I pray.

'True Bread, True Word' — Matthew 4:1-4

Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted there by the devil. For forty days and forty nights he fasted and became very hungry.
During that time the devil came and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become loaves of bread."

But Jesus told him, "No! The Scriptures say,

'People do not live by bread alone,
but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.'"— Matthew 4:1-4 NLT

Key Thought

Just as Israel faced the battle of temptation in the desert, Jesus does, too. But unlike Israel which always seemed to get hung up on physical needs rather than following God, Jesus chose to honor and focus on the Father rather than himself. Nowhere is this focus seen more clearly than in the two great temptation crises of his ministry: his temptations here and in the Garden shortly before his death. In both situations, and in all the others in between, Jesus chose the Father's will and the Father's glory over his own needs and desires. The Father's word, the Father's will, was what Jesus fed on more than physical food. He is our example that we should not try to live a day without our spiritual food, or our souls will be hungrier than our bellies on a 40 day fast!

Today's Prayer

O Father, God who fills every empty place and fulfills every need, stir me to a holy hunger for your word and an insatiable appetite to do your will. I confess that I find it so hard to keep my mind off the distractions my undisciplined appetite craves, so please help me learn that my only lasting answer to true hunger is with you. Through the grace of Jesus' intercession, I pray. Amen.

*Prayer :*

I praise You that You are my strength, my shelter and my ever-present help.

You have protected me through out the night and woken me up by morning, to continue counting my blessings.

Deliver me from fears, worries, anxieties and cares when the pressures of life seem to encompass me on every side.

May I stay unshaken fearlessly because I know You will sustain me and restore me.
In Jesus' Name, I pray.

A New Spirit

Text: _I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you… I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them._ Ezekiel 36:26-27 NKJV

God gives us the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of power. More literally, the Holy Spirit is the wind beneath our wings. The Holy Spirit is described as the breath of God. In the Old Testament that word for Spirit is “ruach,” which means wind or breath. Some of us have a hard time catching our breath, especially those with breathing issues. And it’s really hard to do something when we cannot breathe. In the same way it’s hard to fly a kite without wind. And so God gives us the Holy Spirit, a new breath of life to assist us in our time of need. Literally, God is giving us breathing assistance and keeping us spiritually alive through the Holy Spirit, and keep us going through those critical times until our transformation is complete.

The Apostle Paul said, “Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ” (Philippians 1:6 NKJV). Like the new heart, the new spirit begins when we come to faith in Jesus Christ. This is seen when the disciples first encountered the risen Jesus, and it says that Jesus breathed on them, that is, He breathed into them the very breath of God, the Holy Spirit and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit” (John 20:22). Just as God breathed into Adam and made him into a living soul, so Jesus breathes into us and makes us into new creations in Him, spiritual beings ready for heaven once this life is over. The Holy Spirit is constantly moving. The Holy Spirit is an unstoppable fact of life. To ask the Holy Spirit not to move is like asking fire not to burn, or water not to be wet. We are the ones to yield to Him. We need to constantly ask the Holy Spirit to move in our lives. We need to open the windows and doors of our heart and spirit and let the Breath of God, the Holy Spirit, come in and renew us once again.

Prayer:
Holy Spirit, I ask that You move in my life like never before. Cause me to do Your will, in Jesus’ Name.

*_so shall my word be that goes forth out of my mouth: it shall not return to me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it._*
Isaiah 55:11

*Prayer :*

Thank You that Your Word will not return void but will accomplish all that You have determined.

I believe every promise You made and everything written in Scripture is true and will be fulfilled.

Stir up in me and give me spiritual thirst for Your Word.

Bless Your word, may it be planted in my heart and grow to be fruitful.
In Jesus' Name, I pray.

*_Happy Sabbath_*

"You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows."

'I Won't Play Your Game' — Matthew 4:5-7

[Continuing the temptations,] the devil took [Jesus] to the holy city, Jerusalem, to the highest point of the Temple, and said, "If you are the Son of God, jump off! For the Scriptures say,
'He will order his angels to protect you.
And they will hold you up with their hands
so you won't even hurt your foot on a stone.'"
Jesus responded, "The Scriptures also say, 'You must not test the Lord your God.'"— Matthew 4:5-7 NLT

Key Thought

Is Jesus really sure God is with him? Is he truly Immanuel, "God with us"? One sure place to know and to show this is the Temple. Throughout the Old Testament, the Tabernacle and later the Temple represented God's presence and protection for his people. Once again, Satan tempts Jesus like he tempted the Israelite — to make God's protection and care the condition on which loyalty is to be established. Jesus does not play Satan's game! Jesus is committed to honor his Father and to be faithful to him even though it means the path of suffering and death. The reason these early temptations of Jesus are so important is that they reveal that Jesus will not choose ANY shortcut to obedience! Whether Satan realizes it or not, when Jesus walks out of the desert victorious over him and his temptations, Jesus is demonstrating that Satan's doom is assured. Jesus chooses God's plan even though it means suffering, death, and personal ridicule on a cross. What is the cost of my following God? Will I choose faithfulness over ... ?

Today's Prayer

Almighty Deliverer and Faithful God, in light of your centuries of faithfulness to your people, your preservation of them in the face of great calamity and struggle, I recognize my inconsistency and weakness. Give me a heart to recognize the long-term consequences of my decisions about Satan's challenges, both large and small. Please empower me to choose faithfulness. I believe you are my rock and my salvation, so I rest my hope in you. In the name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.
