TRUST IN THE LORD 3

MEMORY VERSE: - Proverbs 3:5 - "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding."

Now, out text says, “And do not lean on your own understanding.” Leaning on one’s understanding could be so much disaster. By this text God is not saying we should not think nor do something with our mind, he is simply saying, “Never overestimate yourself or be wise in your own conceits.” Romans 12:16.(Amplified Bible).

It is so very tempting to lean upon one's own strength rather than God, especially when you are well educated, well positioned in life, well blessed. However it's important to remember that it is not by our might nor power but by God’s Spirit that anything in life and of true spiritual value is accomplished (Zechariah 4:6). 

“By strength shall no man prevail” declared Hannah in 1 Samuel 2:9. Thus, we must look beyond ourselves and look up to God who is all knowing and all sufficient. If we begin to elevate our own knowledge, abilities, and intellect above the wisdom which God provides us in Christ, we will be prone to fall and be deceived. 

God doesn’t want us putting our confidence in our own strength and abilities such that we begin to trust in ourselves more than in Him and in His Word. We must stay humble; we must not lean upon or depend upon our own knowledge, discernment, and reasoning abilities because it will lead us astray. 


PRAYER 

Holy Father I thank you for another opportunity to trust you and depend on your power to achieve every dream, every vision and every goal in Jesus name, Amen.

MEMBERS OF GOD'S FAMILY 2

  AbayeLiz Daily Inspirational MEMBERS OF GOD'S FAMILY 2 MEMORY VERSE: - 2 Corinthians 3:6 - “He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant—not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.” Like I said in the part one of this topic, Jesus did not come to bring another religion but to bring sons and daughters unto the Father.  Religion is nothing but an ideology, but relationship and family is the real thing. Wherefore, Christ has enabled us to be children of God by the Spirit not of laws (religion). The old written covenant ends in death; but under the new covenant, the Spirit gives life. Living in religion kills but being a man or woman of relationship gives life. What Satan is using to rob people of their right to experiencing God's full package for them is religion.  Religion is a mock, a counterfeit, and a deception. But that which God offers us is relationship by the power of the Spirit.  Christianity is not in religion but an

AVOID DIVERSIONS

AVOID DIVERSIONS MEMORY VERSE: - Jonah 1:3 - "But Jonah got up and went in the opposite direction to get away from the LORD. He went down to the port of Joppa, where he found a ship leaving for Tarshish. He bought a ticket and went on board, hoping to escape from the LORD by sailing to Tarshish” (NLT) One of the ways the devil is using to rub many people of their blessing is through diversions. The Lord gave a message to Jonah to go to the city of Nineveh and announce his judgment against it because of their wickedness but Jonah chose not to go, instead he went another way and his own way the scripture says was the "Opposite Direction." Oftentimes, people choose to go the opposite direction against God's original agenda for them when things are not going as planned. When vision is being delayed and when they are hit with challenges and difficulties in the process of trying to achieve what they were given to do. In the opposite direction is confusion.... In the opposi

NOW IS YOUR MOMENT

  AbayeLiz Daily Inspirational   NOW IS YOUR MOMENT MEMORY VERSE: - John 11:21-24, "Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died. But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee. Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again. Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day"   A lot of people pray but do not believe they can have the answer to their request immediately. Their faith is always in the future. The mindset of future has kept them from embracing that which is theirs at the moment. Thus, they neglect the place of faith in the now of today’s experience. While Martha could only think of the future as the only time her brother could rise again from the dead, Jesus was seeing it happening in the moment. Beloved, it's time to wake up and begin to walk in the 'now' faith. What is now? It means at the present time or moment. it is right
