DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE

-World Radio Day.
TOPIC: ACT GOD'S SCRIPT
Read: Acts 9:1-17
MEMORISE: Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak on My own authority; but the Father who dwells in Me does the works (John 14:10)
EXPOSITION
God is the scriptwriter of all men. Unfortunately, many do not realise this truth, and the script written for them. Therefore, it is practically impossible for them to act accordingly. Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour of the world, acted His Father's Script, here on earth (Jn. 14:10).
Script is a written document, containing the dialogue and action for a drama; the text of a stage play. Every believer, irrespective of age, sex, or colour, is expected to act the same script from our Father in heaven.
Because Christ lives in us, we can't live as we want. The life in us is not ours, but His. Our Lord Jesus wrote a script for Ananias to help disciple, Saul. Despite the fear of the once terrible persecutor of the church, he obeyed God's difficult instruction that led to the liberation of several gentiles.
Similarly, Abraham acted the script of God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness. He became the father of faith (Gen. 22:2,6-10). Jacob requested Joseph not to bury him in Egypt, when he would die. When Jacob eventually died, Joseph took his body to Canaan for burial (Gen. 49:29-33; 50:12-13).
Acting God's script brings freedom, honour, fame, promotion, and other good things in the Lord. The ass, her colt and their owner surrendered themselves to be used of our Lord and Saviour, and they had their names written in gold, in the Holy Writ.
The animal were decorated (Mk. 11:1ff). This had not happened to any other animal before then. God is still in the business of honouring/decorating those who faithfully act His script. Have you discovered yours? Are you faithfully aligning with it? You can never regret if you do (cf. Psa. 34:5)
PRAYER POINTS
1. Lord Jesus, open my eyes to the understanding of Your script for my life, in the way You want it, in Jesus name.
2. God, help me not to fail or disappoint You, here on earth, in Jesus name.
3. Pray for Christians parents to be more careful with how they live their lives in their children's presence and behind them, with the understanding that they are writing history with their lives.
EXTRA READING FOR TODAY: Leviticus 1 - 4 & Luke 1
