AUTHRITY

RECLAIM AUTHORITY

“Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” ~ Luke 10:19   REFERENCE: Luke 10:17-20   Happy New Year! Welcome to 2023. May it be a year of great victories for you. God has a crown of authority for you in 2023. He wants you to take your throne, so you will not go through this year being at the mercy of circumstances, satanic manipulations, and man’s wickedness. God made you to rule, dominate, and have authority as His agent on...

Stone

MEMORIAL STONES

“…The waters of the Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of the Lord…And these stones shall be for a memorial to the children of Israel forever.” ~ Joshua 4:7   REFERENCE: Joshua 4:1-9   We are at a transition point. In a few hours, we will be in a new year; a noble thing to do is to raise a memorial to God on such a special day. God’s grace has kept you for 365 days, and you are about to embark on a journey for another 365 days. Pause today, and reflect on the outgoing year, so you...

Faith

FAITH IN CRUMBS

“And she said, “Yes, Lord, yet even the little dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters’ table.” ~ Matthew 15:27   REFERENCE: Matthew 15:22-28   This Canaanite woman demonstrated her great faith when she turned around and said, “Even dogs get to feast off the bread crumbs that fall from the table while the children eat,” although she was called a dog by Jesus and told that what she sought was bread for children. What faith! I do not know anyone who will put up with the humiliation this woman was put through when trying to get help for her insanely sick...

GREAT IS YOUR FAITH

  “Then Jesus answered and said to her, “O woman, great is your faith! Let it be to you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that very hour.” ~ Matthew 15:28   REFERENCE: Matthew 15:22-28   This woman earned the commendation, “Great is your faith” because she would not take ‘NO’ for an answer. Hers was a persevering faith. There are certain miracles we expect from God that would only answer to such great faith; faith that is too desperate to be denied. I like that the principle of great faith is taught in our text using the story of...

FIRST

PUT GOD FIRST

“But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” – Matthew 6:33   REFERENCE: Matthew 6:25-33   One of the great athletes in Britain, Eric Liddell, was to run for Britain in the 1924 Olympic games. He was a Christian. When the preliminary heats of his best event, 100 meters race, was set on a Sunday, Liddell quietly but firmly refused to run. The day of 400 meters race came, and as Liddell went to the starting blocks, an unknown man slipped a piece of paper in his hand with a...

ELIZABETH HAS CONCEIVED

“…Elizabeth your relative has also conceived a son in her old age; and this is now the sixth month for her who was called barren. For with God nothing will be impossible.” – Luke 1:36-37   REFERENCE: Luke 1:26-37   The news that a virgin would have a child without ‘knowing’ a man was preposterous for Mary. She was to expect what had never happened before to happen in her life, and as expected, she wondered how. To bolster her faith in the impossible, the angel told her, “Elizabeth has conceived, and she that was termed barren is six months pregnant.”  Elizabeth...

GOOD TIDINGS

“Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people.” ~ Luke 2:10   REFERENCE: Luke 2:6-14   Out in the night, some tired shepherds stayed awake to keep watch over their sheep to protect them from rustlers. While bemoaning their station in life and the current affairs in Bethlehem, they were startled by a sudden burst of light. An emissary of heaven appeared, saying, “I bring you good tidings of great joy.” Tidings means news or information. This good tiding is about the birth of...

MY LOT

YOU MAINTAIN MY LOT

“O Lord, You are the portion of my inheritance and my cup; You maintain my lot. The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places; yes, I have a good inheritance.” ~ Psalm 16:5-6   REFERENCE: Psalm 16:1-6   God loves you and has your good at heart. Can you let this picture sink into your spirit? If you do, it will bring you to a place of peace, being able to hand your life and affairs into God’s hands assured that He will seek your good always. The Psalmist had this assurance, which is why he could say, “You maintain...

Sufficient

GOD IS SUFFICIENT

Philip answered Him, “Two hundred denarii worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may have a little.” – John 6:7   REFERENCE: John 6:5-13   Jesus found Himself where we often find ourselves, a position where what we have is inadequate to answer what we need. A multitude had gathered to Him and needed food. Jesus and His team were far from town, in a desert place with little money. Does this sound familiar? However, Jesus knew what He would do to find sufficient supply.   Jesus knew that God was El-Shaddai, ‘the all-sufficient...

Lift your eyes

LIFT YOUR EYES AND SEE

“Lift up your eyes, look around and see; all these gather together and come to you. As I live,” says the Lord, “You shall surely clothe yourselves with them all as an ornament, and bind them on you as a bride does.” ~ Isaiah 49:18   REFERENCE: Isaiah 49:14-21   As we walk with Judah on their journey to recovery, let us consider the beautiful picture of their total restoration. Although they had spent years in captivity, God would bring them back to their land. He would rebuild the burnt houses and repopulate them. The change will be such that God calls them...
