Morning Devotional For Friday 18th May - Edoman - 05-18-2018
RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL
*INVEST IN YOUR PERSONALITY .*
Friday, May 18th .
Pastor Chris
_*A wise man is strong; yea, a man of knowledge increaseth strength (Proverbs 24:5).*_
There’re some people who feel they’re disadvantaged, perhaps, because they don’t have an academic degree; they didn’t quite go to school or maybe they dropped out at some point. If this describes you or someone you know, it’s not the end of the world.
Even if you lost an opportunity to go to school, you haven’t lost an opportunity for education. Just begin by investing in your personality. Listen to the right things; read the right books; open your mind and thinking to the right knowledge and information. What defines your life isn’t so much your academic qualification as it is the quality of your personality; the investments and deposits you’ve made in your mind and in your heart.
Daisy Osborne once said, “Work on being, not on having, for with what you are, you will have.” How true! Put differently, that simply means, “Don’t work on having anything; instead, work on being something.” By investing in yourself, you won’t just walk through this world unnoticed, but would have actually impacted the world with the investment of your personality. That’s success.
Polish yourself. Improve your value. The world is changing fast; you must therefore inundate your mind with the right information that’ll put you over and give you the advantage. When you study the Bible carefully, you’ll discover that knowledge is power. Our opening verse says, _*“…a man of knowledge increaseth strength.”*_ The same word translated “strength” is also translated “ability” in some other places. Thus, with knowledge, you multiply your abilities; you see your endless potentials.
It doesn’t matter where you’ve been or how you’ve lived before you were born again. It might have been that in your biological family, no one has ever been successful, but with you, that jinx is broken. Now that you’re born again, all things are possible to you, the believing one (Mark 9:23). Blessed be God! The difference is knowledge. With the knowledge of the Word, and right investment in your personality, the Lord can do anything with your life.
*CONFESSION*
*I have extraordinary amplitude of comprehension, and every information for a glorious life is accessible to me, because God has given me wisdom and knowledge and joy. I’m a success, and a wonder to my world! My abilities are limitless; I’m positioned by the Spirit for success, greatness, and glory. Hallelujah!*
*FURTHER STUDY:* *||* *1 Samuel 2:8* He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, [and] lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set [them] among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth [are] the LORD'S, and he hath set the world upon them. *||*
*||* *Proverbs 18:15* The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge. *||*
*||* *2 Peter 1:2* Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, *||*
*||* *Acts 20:32* And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified. *||*
*DAILY SCRIPTURE READING*
*1-Year Bible Reading Plan=>* John 8:31-47 & 1 Kings 22
*2-Year Bible Reading Plan=>* 1 Corinthians 10:14-21 & Proverbs 14.
AFFIRMATIONTRAIN
APRIL 18, 2018.
I affirm that my life is hid in Christ in God, totally immersed into Christ.
Now, the life that I live, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave His life for me.
The life of Christ is continually manifested in and through me to everyone in my world.
I’ve received grace upon grace and I am reigning in life.
This is my set time to experience the immeasurable favour and manifold blessings in every area of my life.
I am the apple of God’s eye and He delights in me specially!
I am propelled by His wisdom to walk in the paths of victory, joy, prosperity, and peace which He had prepared for me.
Durable riches and wealth are mine; for I am the seed of Abraham. Hallelujah!
Everything I require for life and godliness has been delivered unto me, and I am enjoying life to the full.
I am energized and aglow with the anointing today; and the grace and peace of God are multiplied to me through the knowledge of God, as I walk in and with the Spirit to impact my world and the regions beyond with the Gospel.
Glory to God.
Hallelujah!
