Make Things Happen, Using The Name Of Jesus.

Topic : Make Things Happen, Using The Name Of Jesus.

Memory Verse : Acts 3:6 Then Peter said, “I don’t have money, but I’ll give you this—by the power of the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, stand up and walk!”

Bible Reading : Acts 3:1-3.TPT. Key Verse: v2.

One afternoon Peter and John went to the temple for the three o’clock prayer. As they came to the entrance called the Beautiful Gate, they were captured by the sight of a man crippled from birth being carried and placed at the entrance to the temple. He was often brought there to beg for money from those going in to worship. When he noticed Peter and John going into the temple, he begged them for money.

This time Peter and John was going to pray in the afternoon at the temple in Jerusalem when they saw a man crippled from birth being helped to take his daily position to beg alms of people who came to the temple to pray. When the lame man saw them he fixed his eyes on the two expecting to receive money from them. Peter asked him to look at himself and John attentively. As they got his needed attention, Peter looked him in the eyes and spoke healing into his body. “Then Peter said, “I don’t have money, but I’ll give you this—by the power of the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, stand up and walk!” Peter held out his right hand to the crippled man. As he pulled the man to his feet, suddenly power surged into his crippled feet and ankles. The man jumped up, stood there for a moment stunned, and then began to walk around! As he went into the temple courts with Peter and John, he leapt for joy and shouted praises to God.” Acts 3:6-7.

This healing took place as a result of faith in the name of Jesus. God had given us the name of Jesus to use and change ugly narratives and make good things happen here on earth in the lives of men. “He humbled himself and became vulnerable, choosing to be revealed as a man and was obedient. He was a perfect example, even in his death—a criminal’s death by crucifixion! Because of that obedience, God exalted him and multiplied his greatness! He has now been given the greatest of all names! The authority of the name of Jesus causes every knee to bow in reverence! Everything and everyone will one day submit to this name—in the heavenly realm, in the earthly realm, and in the demonic realm. And every tongue will proclaim in every language: “Jesus Christ is Lord Yahweh,” bringing glory and honor to God, his Father!” Philippians 2:8-11.

Jesus is the creative word of God that existed from the beginning.”In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.” John 1:1, 3 NIV‬. The name of Jesus has capacity to create and recreate. Whatever we need from God’s presence is possible, if we ask in the name of Jesus Christ. The name of Jesus stands in the heavenlies as an aithorised signature, which a bank must see to grant any request or honour any instruments in the business world. “And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well.”” Mark 16:17-18 NIV‬.

Prayer :Thank you Father God for giving us the name of Jesus to use for victorious earthly living. By the power in the name of Jesus, I command…… (say what you want to see). Thank you Father God for glorifying yourself in your son in my life and situation in Jesus precious name…. Amen 🙏🏿.

The Beauty Of Knowing Him By Revelation

ENTHRONEMENT ASSEMBLY DAILY DEVOTIONALS.

Wednesday June 26th, 2024.

Topic : The Beauty Of Knowing Him By Revelation.

Memory Verse : 2 Peter 1:2. May grace and perfect peace cascade over you as you live in the rich knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.

Bible Reading : Matthew 16:15-17. Key Verse: v17.

“But you—who do you say that I am?” Jesus asked. Simon Peter spoke up and said, “You are the Anointed One, the Son of the living God!” Jesus replied, “You are favored and privileged Simeon, son of Jonah! For you didn’t discover this on your own, but my Father in heaven has supernaturally revealed it to you.

Now Jesus was alone with his disciples and began to ask them whom men thought he was. They began to feed him back that some take him to be John the Baptist, others Elijah, Jeremiah or any of the great Prophets come back to life. After that, he wanted to know from their own perspective, whom themselves following him thought he was, because Jesus wanted them to follow with understanding. It was then that Peter spoke up to reveal that he was Christ the awaited Messiah. ““But you—who do you say that I am?” Jesus asked. Simon Peter spoke up and said, “You are the Anointed One, the Son of the living God!” Jesus replied, “You are favored and privileged Simeon, son of Jonah! For you didn’t discover this on your own, but my Father in heaven has supernaturally revealed it to you.” Matthew 16:15-17.

Even in our days, Jesus desires that we all follow him with understanding of whom he really is and what he can do in our lives. If you don’t know in reality whom he is and he is what he is upto in your life, the enemy will be happy to shortchange you, to make sure you don’t get the best he has in stock for you in your lifetime. The truth is that life in general and even the kingdom of God is regulated by knowledge. On the part of the kingdom itself, it’s knowledge is hidden because it is regulated by different set of rules compared to everyday life and engagements. At some point in the Bible, Jesus described things of the kingdom as hidden treasure in a field. At another point Apostle Paul referred to the wisdom of God also as hidden wisdom. This is because the kingdom offers more than what any man can see on the surface, no matter how sharp his eyes may be. “Instead, we continually speak of this wonderful wisdom that comes from God, hidden before now in a mystery. It is his secret plan, destined before the ages, to bring us into glory.”” 1 Corinthians 2:7 TPT.

These hidden things of the kingdom of God including the knowledge of Jesus who is God can only be received by revelation and by the help of the Spirit of God. Such revelation most time responds to hunger. When we have a hunger within us to know the truth about Jesus Christ and the kingdom of God, we should are pushed to study and pray inquisitively. Today, we need to develop a hunger for truth. Never be confused about God, the truth and his plan for your life including whom Jesus really is and what his presence can do in your life. The more you have understanding of Jesus and his plan for your life through revelation, the more your life is empowered to fulfil purpose and to walk in the paths of true greatness. “None of the rulers of this age understood it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. However, as it is written: “What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived”— the things God has prepared for those who love him— these are the things God has revealed to us by his Spirit. The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.” 1 Corinthians 2:8-10 NIV‬.

Prayer : Thank you Father God because of the good and wonderful plan you have for my life in Christ Jesus. From today open my eyes to understand whom you are and your plan for my life. Help me to follow your plan as to get the best of you in my lifetime in Jesus precious name…. Amen 🙏🏿.

Taking Charge In The Place Of Prayer

ENTHRONEMENT ASSEMBLY DAILY DEVOTIONALS.

Tuesday June 25th, 2024.

Topic :Taking Charge In The Place Of Prayer.

Memory Verse :‭2 Samuel 15:31. Now David had been told, “Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom.” So David prayed, “Lord, turn Ahithophel’s counsel into foolishness.”

‭2 Samuel 15:12-14 NIV‬. Key Verse: v15.

While Absalom was offering sacrifices, he also sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David’s counselor, to come from Giloh, his hometown. And so the conspiracy gained strength, and Absalom’s following kept on increasing. A messenger came and told David, “The hearts of the people of Israel are with Absalom.” Then David said to all his officials who were with him in Jerusalem, “Come! We must flee, or none of us will escape from Absalom. We must leave immediately, or he will move quickly to overtake us and bring ruin on us and put the city to the sword.”

When Absalom rebelled against David his father, one of the men that made his camp thick was Ahithophel. Ahithophel was a counsellor who stood out from among his equals. He was endowed to a point where his counsel hardly fails to produce result, when followed. Now when King David heard that Ahithophel joined the camp of Absalom his son in his revolt, he knew that he was in serious trouble. David had to pray as well as infiltrate the camp of Absalom to counter the ecounsel of Ahithophel. “Go back to the city and say to Absalom, ‘I’m ready to be your servant, O King; I used to be your father’s servant, now I’m your servant.’ Do that and you’ll be able to confuse Ahithophel’s counsel for me. The priests Zadok and Abiathar are already there; whatever information you pick up in the palace, tell them. Their two sons—Zadok’s son Ahimaaz and Abiathar’s son Jonathan—are there with them—anything you pick up can be sent to me by them.” 2 Samuel 15:34-36 MSG

“Absalom and all his company agreed that the counsel of Hushai the Arkite was better than the counsel of Ahithophel. (God had determined to discredit the counsel of Ahithophel so as to bring ruin on Absalom.) Then Hushai told the priests Zadok and Abiathar, “Ahithophel advised Absalom and the elders of Israel thus and thus, and I advised them thus and thus. Now send this message as quickly as possible to David: ‘Don’t spend the night on this side of the river; cross immediately or the king and everyone with him will be swallowed up alive.'” 2 Samuel 17:14-16 MSG. Ahithophel had given a counsel that would have finished David. He wanted Absalom to permit him to appoint an army of twelve thousand men to overrun the camp of David who was exhausted trying to escape to safely by night when he should be resting with the men in his camp. That would have taken king David unawares and unprepared. That was meant just to eliminate king David as to establish the throne of Absalom over Israel.

Today we need to become conscious of economic and political alignments taking place around us that will affect the way we live and do things in the nation God planted us and around the globe in general. We may not really have the capacity to infiltrate their camp as it may, but we can always come together as the body of Christ to exercise the authority Jesus had given to us as his representatives here on earth. I can see some alignments and agreements going on in Nigeria and some parts of the globe that we need to take up in the place of prayer. Never forget that what happens in the political and economic space anywhere you are will always affect you, whether you like it or not. “And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.” Matthew 16:18-19 KJV.

Prayer : Thank you Father God because our peace and prosperity is dependent on the peace of the land where you planted me (us). I pray that any political or economic alignments going that will not favour me and the cause of your kingdom be nuliffied today in Jesus mighty name…. Amen 🙏🏿.

Need For Men Of Genuine Encounter And Hunger

ENTHRONEMENT ASSEMBLY DAILY DEVOTIONALS.

Monday June 24th, 2024.

Topic : Need For Men Of Genuine Encounter And Hunger.

Memory Verse: Philippians 3:7. But whatever were gains to me I now consider loss for the sake of Christ.

‭Philippians 3:1-3 NIV‬. Key Verse : v3.

Further, my brothers and sisters, rejoice in the Lord! It is no trouble for me to write the same things to you again, and it is a safeguard for you. Watch out for those dogs, those evildoers, those mutilators of the flesh. For it is we who are the circumcision, we who serve God by his Spirit, who boast in Christ Jesus, and who put no confidence in the flesh—

There are many practical lessons to learn from the life of Apostle Paul. Indeed the encounter he had with Jesus on his way to Damascus, going as usual with letter of authority to arrest and persecute believer in Christ was a turning point in his life. Everything that followed that experience proved the reality of Jesus and the authenticity of the gospel. At that point, his perspective of life and relationship with and service to God changed. Of course, when he was disrupting the work of God and killing believers, he thought he was working for God. But he suddenly realised that he was working against his creator. ‭”As he neared Damascus on his journey, suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him. He fell to the ground and heard a voice say to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?” “Who are you, Lord?” Saul asked. “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,” he replied. [6] “Now get up and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.” Acts 9:3-6.

The beauty of it all is the transformational change that took place in his life. His old self died and he came alive in newness with Jesus. He really died to self and to the things of this world. That was the major reason he was able to find or receive a new life of glory in Christ. Because of his new found reality, he paid less attention to his personality and previous achievements as a man, so that he could give Jesus Christ, his new found love the best of his life and attention. ‭”But whatever were gains to me I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ—the righteousness that comes from God on the basis of faith.” Philippians 3:7-9.

This mindset of Apostle Paul was key to his great achievements and impact on the new testament Church. He had a strong hunger within him to know and have more of Christ, his new found love daily. The Church of Jesus in our days are in dire need of men who are willing to give their walk with God their best and all. Men of genuine encounter with the man of the cross, who had been there with him. Only such set of people can really live for Jesus because they died and arose with his, which experience alters everything about them including their identity and crave for self esteem. ‭”Join together in following my example, brothers and sisters, and just as you have us as a model, keep your eyes on those who live as we do. For, as I have often told you before and now tell you again even with tears, many live as enemies of the cross of Christ.” Philippians 3:17-18.

Prayer :Thank you Lord Jesus for your interest in me that made you die for me. From today, I need a fresh encounter with you that will reshape my perspective in life. Plant a genuine hunger for more of you in me through your Spirit in Jesus wonderful name…. Amen 🙏🏿.

The Blessing Of Obedience

ENTHRONEMENT ASSEMBLY DAILY DEVOTIONALS.

Sunday June 23rd, 2024.

Topic : The Blessing Of Obedience.

Memory Verse : Deuteronomy 7:11. Therefore, take care to follow the commands, decrees and laws I give you today.

‭Deuteronomy 7:12-13 NIV‬. Key Verse : v13.

If you pay attention to these laws and are careful to follow them, then the Lord your God will keep his covenant of love with you, as he swore to your ancestors. He will love you and bless you and increase your numbers. He will bless the fruit of your womb, the crops of your land—your grain, new wine and olive oil—the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks in the land he swore to your ancestors to give you.

One of the qualities of a disciple of Jesus Christ is that he obeys his commands. We relate with God in the new testament on the basis of grace. At the same time, we need to understand that grace teaches us to obey the Lord willingly and joyfully. God has never been and can never be pleased with anyone walking in disobedience. Even today, we need to understand that everything God does in the life of his people is determined by our personal response to him. For example, no one can be saved without believing in Jesus Christ. It is a condition for salvation as stipulated by the laws of God which anyone desiring to enjoy salvation as packaged by God in his son must embrace. If anyone thinks he doesn’t need Jesus, he will remain in his sins because the word of God can’t be broken. ‭”Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.”” Acts 4:12.

In like manner, we know that the covenant blessings of God belongs to his children or followers. We need to realise at the same time that the condition for us to enjoy the full measure of these blessings in to obey his commands. Now we are following the example of our Lord Jesus Christ, who gave us instructions to follow before returning to heaven, like in the area of evangelism and soul winning. If you watch his earthly life closely, you will discover that he lived to obey or do the will of the father. He wasn’t here to do his own bidding, but at every point in his ministry, he sought to obey the father, even in very difficult and inconvenient situations. “Then he withdrew from them a short distance to be alone. Kneeling down, he prayed, “Father, if you are willing, take this cup of agony away from me. But no matter what, your will must be mine.”” Luke 22:41-42 TPT.

There are many blessings to enjoy from God’s presence when we follow Jesus Christ, if only we are ready to walk in obedience before him. When we confess and claim the blessings of God as contained in his word, we should at the same time be careful to observe as to obey every commandments of the Lord attached to them. We begin to reap the fruits of fellowship and Discipleship at the point of doing the word or putting them into practice. That is when the word releases the capacity to produce results in our hands and lives. “But those who set their gaze deeply into the perfecting law of liberty are fascinated by and respond to the truth they hear and are strengthened by it—they experience God’s blessing in all that they do! If someone believes they have a relationship with God but fails to guard his words then his heart is drifting away and his religion is shallow and empty. True spirituality that is pure in the eyes of our Father God is to make a difference in the lives of the orphans, and widows in their troubles, and to refuse to be corrupted by the world’s values.” James 1:25-27 TPT.

Prayer : Thank you Lord Jesus for living on earth to obey the father. Like yourself, help me by your Spirit to always obey your commands to me, so that your blessings can be real in my daily life in Jesus precious name…. Amen 🙏🏿.

Everything We Need Is in Christ.

ENTHRONEMENT ASSEMBLY DAILY DEVOTIONALS.

Saturday June 22nd, 2024.

Topic :Everything We Need Is in Christ.

Memory Verse :‭Colossians 2:4 I tell you this so that no one may deceive you by fine-sounding arguments.

Bible Reading : ‭Colossians 2:20-22 NIV‬. Key Verse : v22.

Since you died with Christ to the elemental spiritual forces of this world, why, as though you still belonged to the world, do you submit to its rules: “Do not handle! Do not taste! Do not touch!”? These rules, which have to do with things that are all destined to perish with use, are based on merely human commands and teachings.

One of the strategies of the devil this end time is to keep the church of Jesus busy with things that doesn’t have any meaningful impact in the lives of men. Some of these are often repeated activities that cannot effect real changes in the lives of men. One of such devices includes rules and regulations. Rules and regulations are not bad because they help to enforce orderliness in any organisation or environment, but they don’t change the lives of men. The gospel we need to know was designed by the Holy Spirit to transform everyone that is able to open the door of their heart to receive same.‭ “Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me. To the one who is victorious, I will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I was victorious and sat down with my Father on his throne.” Revelation 3:20-21.

After we receive Christ, the most important thing is to go for anything that encourages growth and maturity. Spiritual growth is always possible when we are conscious of the need of the power of God in our personal lives. That is when can show enough hunger for a life controlled by the Holy Spirit. His presence in any life is a step in the right direction for a life of fellowship with God almighty. This fellowship or relationship with our maker makes available to any man the life and power of God to us by the help of his in dwelling Spirit and through his word. This is key to live above every form of falsehood and deceit of men out of pride. ‭”Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you. Such a person also goes into great detail about what they have seen; they are puffed up with idle notions by their unspiritual mind.” Colossians 2:18

Today, we must not forget that Jesus paid every price for us to be redeemed on the cross. Nothing else need to be added to what he did. We have to believe and totally depend on what he had done to live victorious. All we need to do now is to make every possible effort to know him by experience through relationship. That is key to a life of faith and strength that produces results in him. Deep knowledge of him through revelation, opens us up to enormous spiritual resources that makes our Christianity rich in impact anywhere we find ourselves. ‭”My goal is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.” Colossians 2:2-3.

Prayer :Thank Lord Jesus for doing a complete work of redemption on the cross. I pray that you open me up to understand all you have done for me as I fellowship with you daily. Thank you for making me most fruitful in you in Jesus wonderful name…. Amen 🙏🏿

You Believe To Receive.

ENTHRONEMENT ASSEMBLY DAILY DEVOTIONALS.

Friday June 21st, 2024.

Topic : You Believe To Receive.

Memory Verse :‭Hebrews 11:6. And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.

Bible Reading : ‭2 Kings 7:1-2 NIV‬. Key Verse :v2.

Elisha replied, “Hear the word of the Lord. This is what the Lord says: About this time tomorrow, a seah of the finest flour will sell for a shekel and two seahs of barley for a shekel at the gate of Samaria.” The officer on whose arm the king was leaning said to the man of God, “Look, even if the Lord should open the floodgates of the heavens, could this happen?” “You will see it with your own eyes,” answered Elisha, “but you will not eat any of it!”

The famine in the land of Samaria this time in history was so severe that two women could loose compassion for their children as to agree to kill their sons for food which is unheard of before and after that time. These women agreed to slaughter their sons for food one at a time. After they ate the son of the first woman in the first day, the second woman hid her son when it was her turn to surrender her own son to be eaten. This caused a sharp argument and fight that drew the attention of the king who was passing by as the bereaved woman asked for help or justice. ‭”The king replied, “If the Lord does not help you, where can I get help for you? From the threshing floor? From the winepress?” Then he asked her, “What’s the matter?” She answered, “This woman said to me, ‘Give up your son so we may eat him today, and tomorrow we’ll eat my son.’ So we cooked my son and ate him. The next day I said to her, ‘Give up your son so we may eat him,’ but she had hidden him.” When the king heard the woman’s words, he tore his robes. As he went along the wall, the people looked, and they saw that, under his robes, he had sackcloth on his body.” 2 Kings 6:27-30.

The king had to go for the head of Elisha who was God’s voice at that point in time. The man of God told the men sent by the king that tomorrow there would be a miracle as prices of food will crash. Because the famine in thirst place was induced by a prolonged siege of the enemy Syrian army. The king’s special assistant or Aid De Camp, doubted it because he was looking at the reality of things. That made the man of God to pronounce that he will see it but won’t partake of it. The next day, when God finally broke the siege and used the weakest or least of men (lepers) to announce it, the kings special assistant was appointed to oversee or coordinate distribution of the excess food that fleeing Syrian soldiers abandoned for the word of God to be fulfilled. He singularly died in the place of his new assignment as a result of stampede for the word of the man of God be fulfilled .

Today, we need to understand that the blesings or interventions of God comes by promises. The people who can access and utilise them therefore are men who dare to believe God against all odds. People doubt most time because when God is speaking, the situation always look the same because God himself speaks into the future in order to affect the needed changes. Whatever you are going through now, remember the promises (word) of God that addressed such. Hold on to them and run with them because his promises are dependable. ‭”As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it. You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands.” Isaiah 55:10-12.

Prayer:Thank you Father God because your words are dependable. Today, I refuse to fix my gaze on challenges, but pay attention to what you are saying. Thank you because you have the capacity to bring your word to pass in my life and situation, circumstances notwithstanding in Jesus wonderful name…. Amen 🙏🏿.

The Widow And Elisha

ENTHRONEMENT ASSEMBLY DAILY DEVOTIONALS.

Thursday June 20th, 2024.

Topic : The Widow And Elisha.

Memory Verse : ‭2 Kings 4:3. Elisha said, “Go around and ask all your neighbors for empty jars. Don’t ask for just a few.

‭2 Kings 4:1-2 NIV‬. Key Verse : v2.

The wife of a man from the company of the prophets cried out to Elisha, “Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that he revered the Lord. But now his creditor is coming to take my two boys as his slaves.” Elisha replied to her, “How can I help you? Tell me, what do you have in your house?” “Your servant has nothing there at all,” she said, “except a small jar of olive oil.”

Here we see a widow whose late husband was a Bible student that owed money before he died. Not only that, he used his two sons as collateral when he was borrowing the money. Now that he died and the wife had nothing to use and pay, the creditor came for her only consolation after she lost her husband in the form of her two sons. Not knowing what to do and whom to run to, she ran to Elisha the main of God for help. The man of God gave her a simple instruction that sounded foolish to ordinary men. When she obeyed, that became the beginning of her turn around testimony. ‭”Elisha said, “Go around and ask all your neighbors for empty jars. Don’t ask for just a few. Then go inside and shut the door behind you and your sons. Pour oil into all the jars, and as each is filled, put it to one side.” She left him and shut the door behind her and her sons. They brought the jars to her and she kept pouring. When all the jars were full, she said to her son, “Bring me another one.” But he replied, “There is not a jar left.” Then the oil stopped flowing.” 2 Kings 4:3-6.

The widow humbly obeyed the voice of the servant of God. She didn’t talk to anyone who would have discouraged her, but went about borrowing vessels as much as she could lay hands on with her sons. When the house was filled up, they locked up the house and began to pour to fill the borrowed empty vessels. The flow of oil didn’t stop till the sons confirmed that there was no extra vessel to fill. Now she went back to the man of God to gladly confirm the miracle with him. At this point, the man of God sent her back to go and sell off the stock and return to pay up her debt and live on the excess proceeds of the miracle oil. “She went and told the man of God, and he said, “Go, sell the oil and pay your debts. You and your sons can live on what is left.”” 2 Kings 4:7.

Today we have to learn that no situation we find ourselves in is hopeless or irredeemable before the Lord. When we are in trouble and seem not to know what to do or whom to talk to, the best person to run to in times of distress is the God that can do all things. Elisha was there as a man representing God, her running to him for help was same thing as running to God because God always work through men. Another lesson to learn here is that walking with God sometimes may demand us walking on lonely paths. If the widow her told her friends what she asked to do by Elisha or brought them into the process, they might have inflicted her with doubts and discouragement, which would have kept her at same spot. On a third note, if God must bless a man, the person have to lay hands on something. The man of God asked her, what she had which God can use as a contact point to release her blessing. Thank God she had some little oil the Lord could multiply. Finally, we have to learn that in every labour, there’s increase as contained in the book of proverbs. The man of God sent her to work and birth her debt free life by the help of the almighty.

Blessings Of Obedience.

ENTHRONEMENT ASSEMBLY DAILY DEVOTIONALS.

Wednesday June 19th,2024.

Topic : Blessings Of Obedience.

Memory Verse : ‭Romans 8:14. For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God.

Bible Reading :‭Exodus 23:20-22 NIV‬. Key Verse : v22

“See, I am sending an angel ahead of you to guard you along the way and to bring you to the place I have prepared. Pay attention to him and listen to what he says. Do not rebel against him; he will not forgive your rebellion, since my Name is in him. If you listen carefully to what he says and do all that I say, I will be an enemy to your enemies and will oppose those who oppose you.

The children of Israel was on their way to Canaan, the land of promise after the Lord brought them out of the bondage of Egypt by a mighty hand. At this point they were given promises of good things that will be their portion on the condition that they recognise and obey the voice of the angel of God’s presence assigned to lead them through the wilderness. They were to carefully listen to, as to obey the voice of the angel of God. When they do that, the Lord himself will be an enemy to their enemies and will help them to posses the land of promise by the power that makes him God Almighty. They were also commanded not to serve any other but the Lord their God who is the creator of heaven and earth. Obedience was key to them enjoying divine presence, protection health the preservative power of the Almighty.

‭”Worship the Lord your God, and his blessing will be on your food and water. I will take away sickness from among you, and none will miscarry or be barren in your land. I will give you a full life span. “I will send my terror ahead of you and throw into confusion every nation you encounter. I will make all your enemies turn their backs and run.” Exodus 23:25-27. When your food and water is blessed, you will have peace. You will have an enabling environment to enjoy the daily blessings of God bestowed on you. Not only that you will walk in divine health, as well as enjoy divine preservation. Not only that, the presence of the Lord in your camp will command his mighty acts that will cause panic in the camp of your enemies. The testimony of Rahab to the men Joshua sent to search out Jericho is a confirmation to this fact.

‭”and said to them, “I know that the Lord has given you this land and that a great fear of you has fallen on us, so that all who live in this country are melting in fear because of you. We have heard how the Lord dried up the water of the Red Sea for you when you came out of Egypt, and what you did to Sihon and Og, the two kings of the Amorites east of the Jordan, whom you completely destroyed. When we heard of it, our hearts melted in fear and everyone’s courage failed because of you, for the Lord your God is God in heaven above and on the earth below.” Joshua 2:9-11. Today, you need to realise that these and more are the blessings you enjoy by covenant when you serve and obey the voice of the Lord in your lifetime, even now. When you have this understanding, anytime the enemy brings something contrary, you will be bold enough to confront him as to send him packing from your territory. James 4:7.

Prayer : Thank you Father God for being my guide through the journey of life. Give me a heart that obeys your voice all the time. As I walk in obedience before you, let these covenant blessings as contained in your word be my portion in Jesus wonderful name….. Amen 🙏🏿.

The Beauty Of Divine Favour And Help

ENTHRONEMENT ASSEMBLY DAILY DEVOTIONALS.

Tuesday June 18th, 2024.

Topic : The Beauty Of Divine Favour And Help.

Memory Verse : ‭Isaiah 49:11. I will turn all my mountains into roads, and my highways will be raised up.

Bible Reading :‭Isaiah 49:8-10 NIV‬. Key Verse : v8.

This is what the Lord says: “In the time of my favor I will answer you, and in the day of salvation I will help you; I will keep you and will make you to be a covenant for the people, to restore the land and to reassign its desolate inheritances, to say to the captives, ‘Come out,’ and to those in darkness, ‘Be free!’ “They will feed beside the roads and find pasture on every barren hill. They will neither hunger nor thirst, nor will the desert heat or the sun beat down on them. He who has compassion on them will guide them and lead them beside springs of water.

Every man on earth needs favour and help to succeed in life. A moment of favour changes things in the lives of men and rapidly too. Anytime men encounter the favour of God in their lifetime, everything about them wears a new look. “He said, “If I have found favor in your eyes, my lord, do not pass your servant by. Let a little water be brought, and then you may all wash your feet and rest under this tree. Let me get you something to eat, so you can be refreshed and then go on your way—now that you have come to your servant.” “Very well,” they answered, “do as you say.””Genesis 18:3-5. When God appeared to Abraham in the plains of Mamre, favour compelled divinity to enter the house of a man as a friend to spend time with him and his family. The resultant effect of that meeting was the birth of Isaac and the deliverance of Lot and his family from destruction.

Help delivers to a man what his personal efforts and struggles cannot. The help of men has limits, but help that comes from God’s presence do have inexhaustible positive effect. Man from the beginning was designed to need help or depend on another or a higher power who is the creator himself. Help provides us with an extra hand that multiplies impact and achievements. The first thing God gave Adam after creating him was Eve, a woman and a type of helper he needed as life companion. Divine help make capacity available to men and gives them great leap into greatness and relevance in life. ‭”I took you from the ends of the earth, from its farthest corners I called you. I said, ‘You are my servant’; I have chosen you and have not rejected you. So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. “All who rage against you will surely be ashamed and disgraced; those who oppose you will be as nothing and perish.” Isaiah 41:9-11.

Today the favour and help of the Lord is locating you wherever you are if you are trusting him. The resultant effect of the operation of divine favour and help is divine recovery and restoration in every part of your life. ‭”But I will restore you to health and heal your wounds,’ declares the Lord, ‘because you are called an outcast, Zion for whom no one cares.’ “This is what the Lord says: “ ‘I will restore the fortunes of Jacob’s tents and have compassion on his dwellings; the city will be rebuilt on her ruins, and the palace will stand in its proper place. From them will come songs of thanksgiving and the sound of rejoicing. I will add to their numbers, and they will not be decreased; I will bring them honor, and they will not be disdained. Their children will be as in days of old, and their community will be established before me; I will punish all who oppress them. ” Jeremiah 30:17-20.

Prayer : Thank you Father God because you are the author of divine favour and help. Thank you for anointing me with fresh oil of favour today. Thank you for every destiny helper you are sending into my life. I worship you for total recovery and restoration in every part of my life in Jesus wonderful name….. Amen 🙏🏿.
