As a result, he felt so much power in his soul that there was no more fear in his heart. This power also made him free from every slavery to sin. As the days passed, it appeared as if this power within him was no more with the same intensity. He wondered why this was happening. The next time he went to fellowship, he prayed fervently for about 30 minutes, and he felt the boldness and power once again. This was how he knew that the way to stay in the Spirit and power of God is to be prayerful and holy. The power to become sons of God is supplied to us by the indwelling Holy Spirit (John 1:12). The Holy Spirit is only given to those who have received Christ Jesus as their Lord. In today’s Bible text, we can see that Jesus did not allow His disciples to be His witnesses until the Holy Ghost came upon them to empower them. When a person is baptized with the Holy Ghost, it is usually accompanied by praying in the Spirit and sometimes prophesying. People who intend to live Spirit-filled lives must be people who take their cue from that first day they were baptized. They must be people who continue to pray always in the Spirit. Go into today asking the Lord to fill you with the Holy Ghost and with power so that you will represent Him well today. -SD Abraham Yearly Bible Reading: Jeremiah 7-11 (In Devotional Audio)Streamglobe in non-denominational.

But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. During the 13 years Funke waited to have a child, her faith was tried and greatly strengthened. Because of this, she had become a person of great esteem in heaven. She had a robust relationship with the Lord and could stand in the gap for people as a territorial priest before God. After her trial was over, she always wondered if she would have been so close to the Lord is she didn’t face it. Father Abraham is known today as the father of faith because of his patience in waiting on God for Isaac, and his willingness to sacrifice Isaac because he trusted God that much. If Abraham did not patiently trust God for so long to receive Isaac, he most likely would not be known today as the father of faith. His seeming suffering was working for him an eternal weight of glory. In James 1:2-4, God says we should count it all joy when we face trials and temptations because they help to strengthen our faith and make us perfect (if we faint not). Do not let the devil deceive you to think that because of your trials you are under a curse and you need to start running from pillar to post. As long as you know you are with God and living under His authority in obedience, you have nothing to fear because, after your night of weeping, the daybreak of laughter and glory will come (Psalm 30:5). Go into today thanking God and remembering that in all things, God works for the good of those who love Him (Rom 8:28-NIV). -SD Abraham AUDIO SERMONS here☞ http://bit.ly/SERmons Yearly Bible Reading: Job 27-28Streamglobe in non-denominational.

Fayemi was drowning spiritually and he knew it. He could no longer pray like before, and when he did, he wasn’t sure his prayers had power. It wasn’t always like this. There was a time in his life that he had great faith, but his faith eroded with time because he was living in disobedience. Abraham was a man of great faith. This faith made him obey the Lord every step of the way. That is what faith does. Faith and obedience are two sides of the same coin. No one can say he has faith in God (or he has the faith of God) without being obedient to God. Those who truly have faith in the Lord Jesus would obey His commandments (see Luke 6:46-49). Those who constantly walk in disobedience do this to the detriment of their faith. A good example of disobedience is being unequally yoked together with unbelievers (see 2 Cor 6:14). One of the ways you will know if your faith is dying is through your prayer life. It takes faith to pray in the spirit, but when this becomes increasingly difficult, it is an indication that you need [spiritual] healing. Go into today remembering that you cannot live by faith and live in disobedience to the word of the Lord. Ask the Lord to deliver you from every disobedience, and empower you to always live in obedience to His will.

CANCELING OUT THE NOISE OF FEAR

Let him go home right now so that he doesn’t infect his fellows with his timidity and cowardly spirit.” There were whispers and sighing by several people in a church when a boy with sight disability still couldn’t see after he had been prayed for. Unfazed by this noise, at the end of the service, the minister sent everyone away except a few of his close associates and the boy’s mother. Standing firm with them in prayer, the Spirit of God revealed to him that the boy needed a creative miracle instead of a healing because the retina of the disabled eye was removed in a surgery previously. This time, they spoke that the boy should receive a new retina, and in a miraculous moment, he recovered his sight. From the scriptures, we learn from Joshua, Caleb, Gideon, and from our Lord Jesus, that the display of fear and noises of doubt coming from others can constitute spiritual barriers which must be cancelled if we desire to see victory (Num 14:6-9, Judg 6:2-6, Mk 5:36-42, Mk 9:19-25). Fear is highly contagious and it directly opposes our faith. Like faith, it also comes from what we allow ourselves to hear, see, or feel. The way to handle fear is by canceling it with the Word of God. Therefore, in making our demands, especially during intercession, we must always ensure that we maintain our focus on God’s Word and be bold enough to send away all noisy doubters, till we are all of one mind (Acts 4:31-32). Go into today knowing that you have been given the Spirit of sonship, power, boldness and sound mind, with which you can counter every fear and walk in victory always (2 Tim 1:7, Rom 8:15). -SD Abraham AUDIO SERMONS here☞ http://bit.ly/SERmons Yearly Bible Reading: I Samuel 16-20 Streamglobe in non-denominational.

IRON SHARPENS IRON

Many things were happening in Felix’s life and he was beginning to feel overwhelmed. He couldn’t pray like before, and he could sense his spiritual strength waning. He decided to visit his friend Emmanuel. He spent two hours in Emmanuel’s house and they spent the time trying to catch up on current happenings. As their manner was, they also discussed the Word of God. As Felix left Emmanuel’s house, he felt strengthened in his spirit. He could now pray and enjoy the presence of God like he once did. This was because the time he spent with his friend was a time of spiritual sharpening. When iron knives or swords rub on each other, they sharpen each other in the process. But when Iron continually rubs on wood, it becomes blunt. When two believers mingle with each other, because they are of the same kind of spiritual material, they sharpen each other. But when a believer communes with an unbeliever for long, he will become spiritually blunt. Bluntness manifests as ineffectiveness in prayers, unnecessary fears, faithlessness and lowered spiritual strength, etc. In Isaiah 41:15, we see that God makes us into sharp threshing instruments having teeth. We stay sharp by keeping the right company. Go into today remembering that having fellowship with friends who fear the Lord strengthens and sharpens you. Ask the Lord to deliver you from unequal yokes with unbelievers. Prayer: If you don’t have friends who sharpen you, ask the Lord to send such friends your way. -SD Abraham Yearly Bible Reading: Exodus 1-4 (In Devotional Audio) Streamglobe in non-denominational.

But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. Funke had prayed and trusted God for seven years to give her the fruit of the womb. But she was still expecting a miracle to happen. By this time, some of her ‘friends’ and family members were suggesting that she was not taking matters seriously enough. They told her about one ‘baba’ who solved several women’s problem. But Funke insisted that she was going to wait for the Lord and not turn to another god. (This ‘Baba’ was a sorcerer). Many times, it occurred to her that she was going to die childless, but she kept on encouraging herself in the Lord. The Lord kept showing her signs and tokens to remind her that He was with her. After being married for thirteen years, she and her husband welcomed their first child into this world. At the point she conceived, she was no more expecting to conceive because she had already reached the age of menopause and had concluded that ‘even if He slay me, I will still trust Him’. This was the threshold of faith that produced the miracle she had prayed for all her life. She didn’t quickly notice that all the time of waiting on the Lord and remaining steadfast had worked for her an eternal weight of glory. Even though she didn’t have biological children, she had many children in the Lord and had discipled tens of girls. Many of whom she brought out of the streets. Something about faith that we cannot afford to forget is that faith and patience usually work together. One of the biggest signs of true faith in the heart of a believer is the willingness to be patient. It is during the period of our patience that our faith is being purified and made strong. Go into today remembering that true faith is willing to wait on God and not turn to the left or the right. Ask the Lord to help you walk steadfastly in faith all the days of your life. -Chibo E.C Yearly Bible Reading: I Corinthians 11-12 (In Devotional Audio) Streamglobe in non-denominational.

WHO IS A CHRISTIAN?

Being a Christian means you have accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. He is your savior because He saves you from the bondage of sin and death and the bondage of the devil. Jesus offers you total salvation. This means He saves you from spiritual, psychological, emotional and physical bondage. He does not only deliver you from unclean spirits but He delivers you from addictions and other such forms of bondage. He sets your body free from diseases and gives you a new life that strengthens your mortal body. When you say Jesus is your Lord, this means you are handing over the ownership and government of your life to Him. You no longer live to please yourself but now live to please Him. This also means that you accept that He is now responsible for you. When you believe and say those words(Rom 10:9: ‘Jesus is Lord’) and mean them, you are sealing a deal that includes the transfer of the ownership of your life to Christ Jesus. When you accept Christ’s Lordship over your life, you have also accepted His protection and provision. It is what you hand over to someone that he personally takes responsibility for. Many believers don’t grow and see Christ’s mighty power in their lives because they have not fully handed over the ownership and control of their lives to Him. They are still in charge and they wonder why they do not walk in the authority of Christ Jesus. Jesus is either Lord of all or He is not Lord at all. He is too big to share the ownership of your life. Give Him your all and see the incomparable benefits. Prayer: Dear Lord, I ask that you come and take full control of every aspect of my life from this moment. Amen. -SD Abraham Yearly Bible Reading: Mark 5-6 n(In Devotional Audio) Streamglobe in non-denominational. Kindly Share This Devotional with your Friends & Contacts and Let’s Touch Lives Together.

But new wine must be put into new wineskins, and both are preserved. Old wineskins mustn’t always be thrown away but can be renewed and made supple or pliant again to hold new wine. To do this, they must undergo a reconditioning process that involves cleaning and soaking them in oil till they are rejuvenated. No one who can boast of having known all there is to know about God or His Word. The Bible talks about life in Christ Jesus as being unsearchable (Rom 11:33, Eph 3:8), meaning that it is always new, without any limits to its revealing power, to the end that as one grows continually in spirit, he receives more of this life. By receiving Christ Jesus, one becomes a new wineskin, capable of expanding, to receive and accommodate God’s new wine. Outside of this, it is impossible to do so, as the old sin nature makes man spiritually inelastic or worn out, requiring that he be made new (Jn 3:5-7). God’s desire is to fill us always with the newness of life, but our hearts need to remain pliable, without being too rigid or hardened by carnal or religious traditions that can limit or cause us to miss out on the Spirit’s outpouring. However, if we keep our lives clean by His Word and soak ourselves in His worship, then our lives’ capacity to receive His newness increases. Today, as you shun sin and continually yield to God’s word, you’re sure to experience a new spiritual infilling that leads to a robust and vibrant Christian life. -SD AbrahamYearly Bible Reading: Jeremiah 1-6 (In Devotional Audio) Streamglobe in non-denominational.

THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE

Anyone who believes in me will live, even after dying. When Lazarus was resurrected by Jesus, he came forth with his grave clothes on, because, without it, he would be naked. After Jesus resurrected, the cloth used to wrap His body was still in the grave (John 20:5-7) because He did not need it anymore. He now had a glorified body that didn’t need a cloth to be clothed. Jesus’ disciples found it a little difficult to recognize Him because the body he resurrected with was different from the one he died with. He resurrected with the glorified body. This glorified body cannot be killed. It does not need doors to come into a building, but can be made to pass through a wall. These glorious bodies are what will reveal our true nature as sons of God (Rom 8:19). This body of flesh is greatly limiting us from walking in our sonship. The redemption of the body will usher us into the hope of our calling. This is when these vile bodies of ours will be changed into glorious bodies like the one Jesus has right now. This is when we will rule all things with the Lord (see 1 Cor 6:2-3) and be rewarded according to our work here on earth (Rom 2:6, 1 Cor :12-15). Jesus did not only die to save us from our sins, He resurrected to usher into our lives of the greatest power ever known in all of creation. This is the same power that will cause us to resurrect the way He did. Go into today remembering that anyone who believes in the Lord Jesus will not only resurrect with the glorious body but will have abundant life here on earth because Jesus is the resurrection and the Life. -SD Abraham Download AUDIO SERMONS here (New sermons)☞ http://bit.ly/SERmons Yearly Bible Reading: Job 25-26 (In Devotional Audio) Streamglobe in non-denominational.

The first Easter Sunday Nkiru attended church service, the pastor took the time to teach about the consequences of what Jesus did on the cross. He explained that when Jesus said ‘it is finished’, it meant that as far as God’s agenda for humankind is concerned, God has won and the devil has lost. Nkiru understood that if she received the Lord Jesus, the work of the devil in her life would be finished and destroyed (1 John 3:8). She accepted the Lord Jesus that day and consequently became a disciple of Jesus. From the day she received the Holy Spirit, each time the demons that usually tormented her in her sleep tried to show up, she would remember the sacrifice of Jesus for her and become bold and powerful against them. She observed that remembering the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross rendered her oppressors powerless. After some time, they didn’t show up again. (These were ancestral demons that had tormented members of her family for decades). Nkiru understood that the sacrifice of Christ took away every legal ground demons had over her life. She knew that as long she abode in Christ by continually trusting in His finished work for her on the cross, and letting His word abide in her(John 15:7), she would always overcome her adversary (see Rev 12:11). The reason Jesus died on the cross was to shed His blood for the remission of our sins. His blood is the token of His sacrifice, and it is the reason we overcome the devil and his demons. Go into today basking in the finished work of Christ for you on the cross. Through the cross, Christ has spoiled principalities and powers and rendered them powerless in your life (Col 2:15). -SD Abraham Download AUDIO SERMONS here (New sermons)☞ http://bit.ly/SERmons Yearly Bible Reading: Psalms 36-38 (In Devotional Audio) Streamglobe in non-denominational.
