ENTHRONEMENT ASSEMBLY DAILY DEVOTIONALS.
Saturday March 2nd, 2024.
Topic : You Need His Presence.
Memory Verse:Exodus 33:14. The Lord replied, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.”
Bible Reading :Exodus 13:20-22 NIV. Key Verse : v21.
After leaving Sukkoth they camped at Etham on the edge of the desert. By day the Lord went ahead of them in a pillar of cloud to guide them on their way and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so that they could travel by day or night. Neither the pillar of cloud by day nor the pillar of fire by night left its place in front of the people.
For the first time, the people of Israel breathed their first air of liberty after many years of acute slavery in Egypt. Even as they left the land of Egypt and began to take their first steps to the land of promise, Pharaoh was not
done with them. He had plans to go after them in order to bring them back to bondage against God’s will. God knowing the challenges the people of Israel will encounter on their way had to fortify them with his presence ahead of time. This presence of the almighty manifested as pillar of cloud in the day and pillar of fire at night. In the day their enemies were unable to see through the cloud, even at night they couldn’t dare the fire that followed the people of God. In the day, the sun gave them light while the pillar of cloud was for their protection. While at night, the cloud will turn to fire to still protect them as well as illuminate their environment, so that they could see clearly day and night to engage in any activities of their choice.
This divine presence as manifested in their journey was key to all the supernatural interventions they enjoyed throughout their journey in the wilderness. ”Remember how the Lord your God led you all the way in the wilderness these forty years, to humble and test you in order to know what was in your heart, whether or not you would keep his commands. He humbled you, causing you to hunger and then feeding you with manna, which neither you nor your ancestors had known, to teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord. Your clothes did not wear out and your feet did not swell during these forty years .” Deuteronomy 8:2-4 .
This new month, all you need to succeed is the same presence of the almighty that followed the people of old and gave them fearful results and testimonies. The presence of God will make the difference in the midst of troubles and challenges of life. Many who travel without that presence will soon discover that their human capacity and ability can fail short of requirements in the face of certain challenges. “those the Lord blesses will inherit the land, but those he curses will be destroyed. though he may stumble, he will not fall, for the Lord upholds him with his hand. I was young and now I am old, yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken or their children begging bread.” Psalms 37:22.
Prayer :Thank you Father God for bringing me into a new month. I ask that this month and the rest of my life, your presence that makes things to fall in right places at the right time will be my portion. Thank you because every challenges of life bows to your presence in Jesus wonderful name…. Amen 🙏🏿.
Yearly Bible Reading : Joshua 7:1-26.
