Daily Devotional for Monday 17th June

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES

MONDAY, 17TH JUNE.


WISDOM AND FULL DISCERNMENT

That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him (Ephesians 1:17)

“Revelation” in the foregoing verse is the Greek word, “apokalupsis,” which means an unveiling.

“Knowledge”; on the other hand, is the Greek word, “epignosis,” which means a full discernment, an accurate knowledge of God.

The Amplified Classic Translation makes it a lot clearer. It says, “[For I always pray to] the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, that He may grant you a spirit of wisdom and revelation [of insight into mysteries and secrets] in the [deep and intimate] knowledge of Him” (Ephesians 1:17).

There are mysteries and secrets about life, and the anointing and wisdom of God are in you to guide and give you insight into these mysteries and secrets of God.

Psalm 25:14 says, “The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him….” Life for us isn’t a mystery anymore, because the Holy Spirit is in us, and part of His ministry in us is the unveiling of truth. He grants us spiritual understanding. We know why things are the way they are, and we always know what to do through the Spirit (John 16:13).

For example, earlier in His ministry, the Lord Jesus met Peter cleaning and mending his net after a fruitless fishing expedition. He requested to use Peter’s boat to preach, and when He was through, He asked Peter to launch into the water for a great haul of fish.

Peter recalled how he and his colleagues had toiled all night to no avail. But at the word of the Master, he let down his net, and sure enough, it was the catch of his lifetime (Luke 5:1-8).

Jesus knew where the fishes were. That’s spiritual insight and understanding. He’s the creator of all things. He knows the mysteries and secrets of life. He knows where the businesses are. He knows where the money is. He knows what ideas to give to you to take your ministry and work to the next level.
Trust Him with your life. Make knowing Him more, and keeping His Word, your greatest passion.

Through that fellowship, He’ll keep unveiling Himself and the greater mysteries of the Kingdom to you. This is God’s desire for you: that you function with the Spirit of wisdom, expressed in full discernment and accurate knowledge of Him.

CONFESSION

I’ll never stumble or walk in confusion, because God’s Word is a lamp that directs my life, and a light that lightens my path. I walk in preordained pathways, and my path is as the shining light that shines brighter and brighter unto the perfect day. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY

Proverbs 4:5-10 Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth. 6 Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee: love her, and she shall keep thee. 7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding. 8 Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her. 9 She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace: a crown of glory shall she deliver to thee. 10 Hear, O my son, and receive my sayings; and the years of thy life shall be many.

Colossians 1:9 For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;

#TALKINGSESSION

17TH JUNE.

KINDLY SAY THESE WORDS OUT LOUD

Dear Father, I thank You for the power of Your good and eternal Word that is at work in me today, having embraced it as the more sure Word of prophecy—to live by, and build my life on! By the power of Your Word, I fight to win in the good fight of faith today, and every day.

My future is glorious and that of success because I am born of the Word and filled with the Holy Spirit who teaches me and guides me in the path of life! I walk in righteousness, abundance, health, peace, joy, prosperity and continuous victory today and everyday of my life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

God bless you

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

DATE: MONDAY 17TH JUNE 2019

THEME: HEARKEN TO THE VOICE OF THE WISDOM.

MEMORISE:

But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil. Proverbs 1:33

READ: Proverbs 1:20-29

20 Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets:

21 She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth her words, saying,

22 How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?

23 Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.

24 Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded;

25 But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:

26 I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;

27 When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.

28 Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:

29 For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:

MESSAGE

But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. 1 Corinthians 1:24

This verse reveals that the wisdom of God is not a thing but a personality; hence He speaks, calls, warns and counsels. Jesus Christ is the Wisdom of God, and He is speaking to you directly in today’s Bible reading. The wise will listen to what He has to say and build their lives on the sure foundation of the principles that He teaches. In Luke 6:47-48, He says:

“Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like: He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.”

Because of His great love and compassion for all of mankind, He pleads with us to listen to His counsel and asks why we would choose foolishness instead of the wisdom He offers, He wonders why men hate knowledge, which saves us from temporal and eternal calamity when we correctly apply it to our lives. The Wisdom of God even assures us in today’s memory verse that whoever hearkens to Him and does His bidding will live in safety, free from all evils. If I were you, I would listen to what He has to say, act on His warnings and walk in the counsel that He gives.

Beloved, the Wisdom of God calls out to you today from Matthew 11:28-30, saying:

“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

Have you responded positively to this call? You may not know it but answering this call is the best decision you can make in life. In this call lies salvation, prosperity, rest of mind and total freedom from all forms of stress. The burden of sin is unbearable! It is therefore a wise thing to respond to the call of the one who can remove this burden from us. Answering the call of Jesus unto salvation is the beginning of wisdom. Proverbs 1:31-32 declares the calamity that will befall those who fail to answer His call. May that not be your portion in Jesus’ Name. determine to harken to the voice of God’s Wisdom from today onward.

PRAYER POINT:

Father, give me listening ears to hear Your warnings and counsel and a willing heart to do according to what You say, in Jesus’ Name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Numbers 16-17
Lamentation 2:6-18

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 3: TRUST AND OBEY.

1. When we walk with the Lord in the light of His Word,
What a glory He sheds on our way!
While we do His good will, He abides with us still,
And with all who will trust and obey.

o Refrain:
Trust and obey, for there’s no other way
To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.

2. Not a shadow can rise, not a cloud in the skies,
But His smile quickly drives it away;
Not a doubt or a fear, not a sigh or a tear,
Can abide while we trust and obey.

3. Not a burden we bear, not a sorrow we share,
But our toil He doth richly repay;
Not a grief or a loss, not a frown or a cross,
But is blessed if we trust and obey.

4. But we never can prove the delights of His love
Until all on the altar we lay;
For the favor He shows, for the joy He bestows,
Are for them who will trust and obey.

5. Then in fellowship sweet we will sit at His feet,
Or we’ll walk by His side in the way;
What He says we will do, where He sends we will go;
Never fear, only trust and obey.

SEEDS OF DESTINY:
BY DR. (PST.) PAUL ENENCHE
(DUNAMIS INTERNATIONAL GOSPEL CENTRE-DIGC)

MONDAY 17TH JUNE, 2019

TOPIC:
MAN, GOD’S SPECIAL CREATURE.

SCRIPTURE: Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Matthew 5:14.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Every child of God is destined to be the light of the world and to shine as a star.

Man is a special creature of God. Man is God’s creative masterpiece because he is the image and likeness of God the creator crafted in beauty and wonder (Psalm 139:14). We are specially created by God to fulfil a special purpose and destiny.

Our anchor Scripture reveals that every child of God is destined to be the light of the world and to shine as a star. Isaiah 60:1 confirms this: Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee. The meaning is, as a child of God, you are designed to be a shining star and a burning light; you were created and destined for distinction. You were not calculated for obscurity or insignificant existence.

Now, what other evidence attests to man being a special creature of God? Man was created with great opportunities. As children of God, we were born with Divine opportunities. We are not meant to beg for opportunities. There are opportunities that God has reserved only for His children. So, being born into God’s Spiritual family qualifies a person for Divine opportunities. In Psalms 5:12, the Bible says, For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield. Once a person becomes a child of God, his opportunities in life become natural; favour becomes natural and effortless for him.

Beloved, my counsel is, reject every form of darkness in your life and destiny; make the choice to walk in the realm of divine excellence, opportunities and favour.

Remember this: Every child of God is destined to be the light of the world and to shine as star.

ASSIGNMENTS:

1. Study God’s Word to know who you are and what belongs to you in God.

2. Maintain personal fellowship and intimacy with God in order to become what He created you to be on earth.

PRAYER: O Lord, I thank You for making me special to You; I am fearfully and wonderfully made, Lord in Jesus’ Name.

FOR FURTHER UNDERSTANDING, GET THIS MESSAGE: UNDERSTANDING AND OVERCOMING THE ENEMIES OF DISTINCTION AND EXCELLENCE.

DAILY READING: 1 Kings 18:1-46, Acts 11:1-30, Psalm 135:1-21, Proverbs 17:12-13

AMAZING FACT: Johannes Kepler, a German mathematician, astronomer and astrologer, who is the founder of physical astronomy and whose work is one of the foundations of the theory of universal gravitation is a Christian and drew his inspiration from God.

QUOTE: When your life begins to please God, His favour will naturally be your portion in everything you do and everywhere you go. Culled from WHO ARE YOU? by Dr Paul Enenche.

PROPHETIC DECLARATION/WORD: Receive a clothing of favour in this season, in Jesus’ Name

OUR DAILY MANNA DEVOTIONAL BOOKLET FOR THE CHAMPIONS.

MONDAY JUNE 17, 2019

TOPIC: LIFE IS PERFECT! MAKE IT HAPPEN
BASIC SCRIPTURE: (JAMES 1:1-18).

As you drive off the Johannesburg Airport, the six words above stare at you conspicuously. Many years ago, at first instance, I struggled with the words, “Life is perfect” till I was hit suddenly by the fact that God made all things well (Genesis 1:31).

Indeed, God made all things perfect, but He expects you to work out that perfection in a process of time. God expects you to make it happen and your failure or success on planet earth is a function of your ability/wisdom in working out that perfect gift called, “life ..

Consider below a few keys on how to make it happen in your journey through life:

1. Be connected DAILY to divinity (God) through a systematic study of His Word – the Bible. Discipline is required!
2. Always have a financial plan or budget. A budget acts as a guide and keeps you safe from overspending or buying on impulse, etc.
3. Always determine to bounce back after every failure/mistake or negative experience like, loss of job, loss of a loved one, loss of integrity, disappointments, premature retirement, etc.
4. Save more! Cut down on luxuries or entertainment. Maybe you need to earn an income by taking on a second job, without affecting your commitment to God, your family or local church. If you get a salary raise, increase your saving amount per month.
5. Forgive easily and foolishly! James 1:17 says: 

“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.” Believe that God made all things perfect and believe that you will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living!

BY: BISHOP (DR) CHRIS E. KWAKPOVWE (CEK)
PUBLISHER/AUTHOR & EDITOR-IN-CHIEF

SONG 1: THERE IS NOT A FRIEND LIKE THE LOWLY JESUS

1.There’s not a friend like the lowly Jesus,
No, not one! No, not one!
None else could heal all our soul’s diseases,
No, not one! No, not one!

REFRAIN:

Jesus knows all about our struggles,
He will guide till the day is done;
There’s not a friend like the lowly Jesus,
No, not one! No, not one!

2. No friend like Him is so high and holy,
No, not one! No, not one!
And yet no friend is so meek and lowly,
No, not one! No, not one!

3. There’s not an hour that He is not near us,
No, not one! No, not one!
No night so dark but His love can cheer us,
No, not one! No, not one!

4. Did ever saint find this Friend forsake him?
No, not one! No, not one!
Or sinner find that He would not take him?

LIVING WATER CAC DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE

LET THE WORLD SEE YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS
READ: Isaiah 62:1-3

MEMORISE: Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven (Matthew 5:16).

EXPOSITION

The disciples of Jesus had been physically separated from their Master for a long time. Yet, those who did not know them identified them as Christ-like (Acts 11:26). God’s purpose of calling and saving us is to radiate His light to the world.

Jesus came to give light to the dark world (Isa. 9:2; Matt. 4:16). Since Jesus came into our lives, we are no longer what we used to be (2 Cor. 5:17), just as a bachelor’s life changes as soon as the new wife gets home. Old friends may have to be distanced, girl friends have no more access, and community knows something has happened to ‘this man’.

Believers, who have been called into the saving grace of God, through Jesus, are expected to live new ways of life in consonance with the righteousness and holiness of God (Rom. 8:29). This is far from outward show of piety (1 Pet. 3:3-5). That is why God is more concerned about our hearts.
If the heart is transformed, the entire person would change, and the effect is visible to all. Believers are light put on the table to give light to the surroundings (Matt. 5:16).

Christianity is practical, visible, and should be felt by people around us. Daniel, the three Hebrews, and Joseph are shining examples to us, today. Who are you in your church, community, office, etc? Are the sheep not mixed with the goats? Let us get to that point that as Christians we can say, “If others will, I will not.”

However, we must beware of hypocrisy in living the life of righteousness (Matt. 5:20). Since our righteousness is useless, we must be ready to love like He lived while He was on earth (Rom. 10:4). Arise and shine!

PRAYER POINTS

1. Lord Jesus, make me Your light to my world.
2. Lord, help me that my family would be an outshining of Your holiness and righteousness in this crooked generation.
3. Pray seriously against the modern satanic trend called ‘Prosperity gospel’ ravaging churches and shutting the mouths of ministers from preaching messages of holiness/righteousness.

EXTRA READING FOR TODAY: I Chronicles 10:12 – 12:13; John 18:34 – 19:15.
