How To Receive The Promises.
ENTHRONEMENT ASSEMBLY DAILY DEVOTIONAL.
Sunday 15th October, 2023.
Topic: How To Receive The Promises.
Memory Verse: Hebrews 6:15. And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
Bible Reading: Hebrews 6:11-14. Key Verse: v13.
And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end: That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises. For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself, Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee.
Every man on earth that wants to walk with God fruitfully in his lifetime need to understand his ways. There are some factors that determines how far every believer can go with God. One of those factors includes commitment. God’s own commitment towards our well being or himself keeping his word can never be in doubt. Now, it is how ourselves respond to him that determines what happens at the end of the day. For example, God desires that the whole world be saved. He backed this desire with a corresponding action (the sacrifice of his one and only son on the cross to pay for redemption of men). Yet not all men are saved, not because the blood of sacrifice of Jesus has lost its power to save, but because many refused to accept Jesus into their lives, which is a requirement to benefit from the blessing of his sacrificial death and atonement for sin. In like manner, many believers fail to enjoy the full blessings of God because of our attitude towards him.
Another factor that determines how far anyone can go with God is patience. Many couldn’t get to their destination with God Almighty because they couldn’t accept delays with God. They want things to happen at their own time instead of waiting patiently for God’s time. I once heard Dr Oyedepo of Winners say that “your waiting time, is not your washing time”. Today, many including believers see waiting time as being wasted because they lack total truth. For everything God wants to do, he has a right time and purpose, so no man can dictate to him. We can only wait when patience is at work in us. Hebrews 10:35-36.
On a final and most important note, we must have faith in God’s ability to deliver that which he promised us at the end. It is the existence of strong faith that regulates both our commitment level as well as how patient we can really be with God in practical terms. Faith is like the solid pillar that bears the burden of a building. When faith fails, every other thing caves in. That’s the reason the word said in Hebrews 11:6 that without faith, it is impossible for anyone to transact any business with God. Faith strengthens conviction, while conviction strengthens commitment which is key to waiting patiently for God to come through on our behalf. “Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee. And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.” Hebrews 6:14-15.
Prayer :Thank you Father God for every of your promises that has gone forth into my life. From today help me by your Spirit to be committed and patient in my walk with you. Keep me standing firm in faith till victory in Jesus blessed name……Amen 🙏🏿.
Yearly Bible Reading : Acts 6:1-15.
