December Devotional From Gospel Pillars Ministry by macjireh: 4:54pm On Dec 01, 2014 |
WELCOME TO THE MONTH OF THANKSGIVING! 1st December, 2014 * * * * THE FOUNDATION OF GRATITUDE *** “I will mention the loving kindnesses of the LORD, and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD hath bestowed on us, and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which he hath bestowed on them according to his mercies, and according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.” - (Isaiah 63:7) * * * * The benevolence of God is overwhelming; our text today expresses that. From the air we breathe, the life we live, to the provisions that we enjoy both in this life and in the spirit (2Pet. 1:3), no one can contest that we owe God even our very lives! True gratitude is built upon the understanding that God is the Source of all that we have received. It is a deep-seated resolution to lavish praise on the God of all goodness for every success we achieve, rather than ascribing undue praise and honour to our own intelligence, creativity, wealth, skills etc. This month, be ready to learn and put on the attitude of gratitude which would automate the cycle of God’s blessings upon your life. Never stop bringing to remembrance and mentioning all His blessings in your life, until thanksgiving becomes the life that you live. Glory to God! * * * * ISAIAH PROPHESIES: Let the high praises of God be in your mouth all through today in Jesus name. * * * * ACTION POINTS DO THIS: Set your heart to thank God throughout this month, start by remembering all He has done for you this year. SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that my life brings glory to God. STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: ZECHARIAH 1, ACTS 17, PSALMS 4 * * * * CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS * * * * ANGUILLA is a small island with few people of over 15000. About 90% of their population is Christian. However, there is a need for the body of Christ to work together in the nation as Interdenominational cooperation is lacking. PRAY FOR ANGUILLA: We are praying for Anguilla for a mighty outpour of God’s Spirit upon the land that the nation would be known for righteousness. * * * * * STARTUP PRAYER: Dear Father, thank you for all you have done in my life this year, help me to show my gratitude to you in Jesus name. God bless you! |

METAMORPHOSIS (Excerpts from Devotional Box - a daily devotional by Dr. Isaiah & Lianna Wealth. *** 2nd December, 2014 *** TITLE: THE COMMITMENT OF GRATITUDE *** 1Samuel 1:27-28 “For this child I prayed; and the LORD hath given me my petition which I asked of him: Therefore also I have lent him to the LORD; as long as he liveth he shall be lent to the LORD.” *** The conventional way of expressing gratitude is saying ‘Thank You’. Though conventional, this is not a sufficient display of gratitude, because gratitude goes beyond what is said. In our text today, we see how Hannah returned to dedicate Samuel unto the service of God after her womb was opened. This shows us that gratitude entails standing by the one to whom you owe thanks and supporting His vision. The most excellent display of gratitude is in rededicating our lives and resources to the furtherance of God’s Kingdom on the earth. True gratitude births commitment. It starts with what is said, but is perfected in the commitment that we make thereafter. As we give God thanks this season, in what ways would you commit yourself to God’s assignment on the earth? Consider this today and throughout the rest of this month and make a special commitment to God as a sign of your gratitude. *** ISAIAH PROPHESIES: May your life be wholly committed to God today in Jesus name. *** ACTION POINTS DO THIS: Make a vow to give yourself completely to the Lord as gratitude for all he has done for you. Do so now. SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that all that I have and that I am brings glory to God. *** STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: ZECHARIAH 2, ACTS 18, PSALMS 5 *** CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS Anguilla Anguilla is a small island with few people of over 15000. About 90% of their population is Christian. However, there is a need for the body of Christ to work together in the nation as Interdenominational cooperation is lacking. PRAY FOR ANGUILLA: We are praying for Anguilla for unity and oneness in the body of Christ. *** STARTUP PRAYER: Dear Father, strengthen me to give myself wholly to you in Jesus name. *** PRAYER OF CONSECRATION Thank you Lord Jesus for a successful 2014, to you be all the praise and Glory for all my accomplishments in the course of the year. Oh Lord, as the year ends, i dedicate myself to you asking for you to guide me to serve you better and to be positioned for greater availability in your Kingdom. Let my body, soul & Spirit be preserved in your sight, in Jesus Name, Amen. * * * * * * * OTHER RESOURCES: Download the FREE Devotional Box App and enjoy the Audio version daily www.devotionalbox.com * * * Study devotionals on specific topics with our TOPICAL, STUDY at www.devotionalbox.com/topics.php * * * Chat with other users: www.devotionalbox.com/ discussion.php * * * LIKE us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/devotionalbox * * * You can also order the print edition of Metamorphosis, share your testimonies or make further enquiries by calling +234 813 520 3592 God bless you. |

METAMORPHOSIS DEVOTIONAL. (Excerpts from devotionalbox by Dr isaiah and Lianna Wealth). Day 3. FORGOTTEN GRATITUDES Psalm 143:5 “ I remember the days of old; I meditate on all thy works; I muse on the work of thy hands.” Gratitude is not a one-off thing; tThanksgiving never ends. However, many persons find it difficult to remember, not to talk of thanking God for a blessing received in the past. It is discipline toeven thank God for your salvation, healing or breakthrough years after He perfected such in your life. The blessings of God are forever, hence our thanks to Him for what He has done should never cease. As your thanksgiving remains before Him concerning that which he has done for you, so also will your blessing remain and get even bigger. Say Amen! Draw out a list of those things that you received from God this year. Also draw a list of persons through whom God has blessed you, and take it upon yourself to express your gratitude to them once and again. As you recommit yourself to thanking God again and again for your blessings, those blessings would remain fresh and preserved even for a longer period. Halleluyah! ISAIAH PROPHESIES: May your mouth be full of His praise today in Jesus name. * * * * * * Action Points DO THIS: Begin to thank the Lord for everything in your life. Sing praises and exalt Him. * * * * * * SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that nothing can take the place of God in my life. * * * * * * STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: ZECHARIAH 3, ACTS 19, PSALMS 6 * * * * * * CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS COUNTRY: Anguilla Anguilla is a small island with few people of over 15000. About 90% of their population is Christian. However, there is a need for the body of Christ to work together in the nation as Interdenominational cooperation is lacking. * * * * * * PRAY FOR ANGUILLA: We are praying for the Christians in Anguilla that the Spirit of wisdom and revelation will rest upon them. * * * * * * Continuous Praying Startup prayer: Dear Father, I receive grace to live a life full of praises to you in Jesus name. * * * * * * PRAYER OF CONSECRATION Oh Lord my God, I thank you for your mercy over my life. As the year winds up, I ask for wisdom to position myself in the place of advantage, so that I may in nothing be short of that in which you have written of me.

METAMORPHOSIS DEVOTIONAL. (Excerpts from Devotionalbox By Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). December 4th TITLE: THE COST OF GRATITUDE TEXT: Psalms 119:62 “At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee because of thy righteous judgments.” Thanksgiving is not just about you, but the one to whom you express gratitude. God’s pleasure, not your convenience should determine how you thank Him. David in our text today is willing to give up His sleep to praise God, yet that would not be His first. Remember how He danced unashamedly at another time just to thank the Lord (2Sam 6). One of the reasons we often fail to give God the praise due to His Name is that we think of ourselves more than we think about pleasing Him. Hence, our so-called act of gratitude to Him is null and void. For instance, when what determines how well you dance in thanksgiving is the effect of the dance on your appearance; your makeup and clothes; your thanksgiving is null and void. How selfish! True gratitude would always cost you something. Therefore, do not hold back in giving thanks to God, neither be selfish in offering a gift to say thank you to someone who has been of help to you. Go out of your way to do what will be appreciated by the person to whom you would be expressing gratitude today and throughout this month. * * * * * * * ISAIAH PROPHESIES: May your heart overflow with thanksgiving today in Jesus name. * * * * * * * Action Points DO THIS: Give God the praise and thanksgiving that would cost you something today. * * * * * * * SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that my year ends gloriously. * * * * * * * STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: ZECHARIAH 4, ACTS 20, PSALMS 7 * * * * * * * CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS COUNTRY: Anguilla Anguilla is a small island with few people of over 15000. About 90% of their population is Christian. However, there is a need for the body of Christ to work together in the nation as Interdenominational cooperation is lacking. * * * * * * * PRAY FOR ANGUILLA: We are praying for Christians in Anguilla that they will shine as light and be an example in righteousness, holiness and in Character. * * * * * * * CONTINUOUS PRAYING Startup prayer: Dear Father, help me to give you the praise that would cost me something in Jesus name * * * * * * PRAYER OF CONSECRATION Oh Lord my God, I thank you for your mercy over my life. As the year winds up, I ask for wisdom to position myself in the place of advantage, so that I may in nothing be short of that in which you have written of me.

METAMORPHOSIS DEVOTIONAL. (Excerpts from Devotionalbox by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). December 5th,2014. TITLE: GRATITUDE FORGIVES TEXT: Matthew 18:32-33 “Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me: shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellow servant, even as I had pity on thee?” In true thanksgiving, there is an element of forgiveness. We cannot claim to be truly grateful to God without expressing the same character that He expressed to us towards others. The servant in our text today was called wicked because he failed in this regard. Have you been failing also? If God has been merciful to you, you owe it to others to be merciful also. The true measure of how grateful you are about what God has done for you can be seen in your readiness to also lift the burdens of others , in such a way that they too can have something to be grateful for. Glory to God! A heart that is truly grateful seeks to liberate others. Your thanksgiving to God would not be complete until you let go of hurts and offenses that you have harboured against others. Forgive others, even as your heavenly Father has forgiven you. Halleluyah! * * * * * * * ISAIAH PROPHESIES: Receive grace to forgive all that have hurt you in Jesus name. * * * * * * * Action Points DO THIS: Ponder on all that you still have grudges against because of a wrong done and genuinely forgive them. * * * * * * * SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that I experience the fullness of God in my life. * * * * * * * STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: ZECHARIAH 5, ACTS 21, PSALMS 8 * * * * * * * CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS COUNTRY: Anguilla Anguilla is a small island with few people of over 15000. About 90% of their population is Christian. However, there is a need for the body of Christ to work together in the nation as Interdenominational cooperation is lacking. * * * * * * * PRAY FOR ANGUILLA: We are praying for the Christians in Anguilla that they will not be ashamed of the Gospel of Christ but will speak boldly about Christ. * * * * * * * CONTINUOUS PRAYING Startup prayer: Dear Lord, thank you for your mercy towards me, I receive grace to show mercy to all that may have wronged me in Jesus name. * * * * * * PRAYER OF CONSECRATION Oh Lord my God, I thank you for your mercy over my life. As the year winds up, I ask for wisdom to position myself in the place of advantage, so that I may in nothing be short of that in which you have written of me.

METAMORPHOSIS DEVOTIONAL. (Excerpts from Devotionalbox- a daily Devotional by Dr Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). 6th December,2014. TITLE: REJOICE WITH OTHERS TEXT: Romans 12:15a “Rejoice with them that do rejoice…” Our text today opens our eyes to yet another attitude of gratitude; a grateful man also rejoices with those who rejoice. Glory to God! The attitude of gratitude compels a believer to give God thanks even for the success of others. The news of progress lightens his countenance; whether the recent breakthrough is his or another’s he rejoices nonetheless. Halleluyah! Are you truly grateful for what you have received? If yes, then celebrate the blessing of God wherever it manifests, whether in your life or in the lives of others. Set out time today to thank the Lord for the salvation of a soul near you. Thank Him for the success of a relative or friend. Train yourself to rejoice with those that rejoice, because in that, you show that you possess the attitude of gratitude. Glory to God! * * * * * * * LIANNA PROPHESIES: May genuine praise of gratitude lift from your spirit today in Jesus name. * * * * * * * Action Points DO THIS: Deliberately rejoice more when others testify and celebrate with them. * * * * * * * SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that my breakthrough is sure this month. * * * * * * * STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: ZECHARIAH 6, ACTS 22, PSALMS 9 * * * * * * * CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS.

METAMORPHOSIS DEVOTIONAL. (Excerpts from Devotionalbox-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). 7th December,2014. TITLE:THE DOUBLE HONOUR GRATITUDE TEXT: 1Timothy 5:17 Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine. It would not be strange to think about getting your spouse a special thank you card or gift at regular intervals, even at such a time as this, but many would find the idea of giving a gift or sowing a personal seed to their pastor or church leader a strange idea. This restraint is definitely not from God! If your pastor or spiritual authority is nowhere near the top of your gratitude list this season, you are neglecting an important instruction from God. Our text today clearly specifies that those who labour in the Word of God and doctrine must be accorded double the regular honour or gratitude that we naturally give to others. Therefore, each time you have the opportunity to appreciate those who feed and look after you spiritually, go the extra mile to express your gratitude, and remember to do so often. Remember that no amount of money can buy that which they add to your life daily. They are a gift to you from God; cherish them and show your gratitude to them this season. Glory to God! * * * * * * * ISAIAH PROPHESIES: May your Prophet be revered in your eyes today in Jesus name. * * * * * * * Action Points DO THIS: Consider what you must give to honour God’s minister in your life today. * * * * * * * SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that I am lifted above every limitation in my life. * * * * * * * STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: ZECHARIAH 7, ACTS 23, PSALMS 10 * * * * * * * CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS. COUNTRY: Anguilla Anguilla is a small island with few people of over 15000. About 90% of their population is Christian. However, there is a need for the body of Christ to work together in the nation as Interdenominational cooperation is lacking. * * * * * * * PRAY FOR ANGUILLA: We are praying for the Christians in Anguilla that they will be strengthened with might in their Spirit to serve the Lord. Continuous Praying Startup prayer: Dear Lord, help me to regard the Prophet you have placed in my life in Jesus name. * * * * * * PRAYER OF CONSECRATION Oh Lord my God, I thank you for your mercy over my life.

METAMORPHOSIS DEVOTIONAL. (Excerpts from Devotionalbox-a daily devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth) 8th December,2014. TITLE: A GRATEFUL MAN REPENTS TEXT: Luke 19:8 “And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord; Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold.” God’s love melts even the hardest of hearts. Not only does an encounter with Jesus melt the heart, it convicts. None who claims to have seen the hand of God in their lives continues in sin or uncleanness. The story of Zacchaeus emphasises this great truth. Many would have been taken by surprise by Zacchaeus’ instant repentance when he hosted Jesus, because no lengthy sermon was preached. But we see that in gratitude to Jesus’ love, Zacchaeus made a commitment to righteous living. Love is a potent tool in a soulwinner’s hand for bringing the lost to repentance. Glory to God! More so, for those who are saved, maintaining gratitude entails that you do not return to that which you were saved from. Only an ungrateful man returns to his sin just as a dog to its vomit (Prov. 26:11). Are you truly grateful for the mercy of God upon your life, resolve to keep your sanctification, daily consecrating yourself to the Living God. Praise God! * * * * * * * LIANNA PROPHESIES: I release on you grace for unwavering commitment to God today in Jesus name. * * * * * * * Action Points DO THIS: Consecrate yourself to God and make a commitment to Him, not to return to your past again. * * * * * * * SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that I am seated with Christ in heavenly places. * * * * * * * STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: ZECHARIAH 8, ACTS 24, PSALMS 11 * * * * * * * CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS COUNTRY: Anguilla Anguilla is a small island with few people of over 15000. About 90% of their population is Christian. However, there is a need for the body of Christ to work together in the nation as Interdenominational cooperation is lacking. * * * * * * * PRAY FOR ANGUILLA: We are praying for the Churches in Anguilla that they will stand united together. * * * * * * * Continuous Praying Startup prayer: Dear Lord, help me to live my life wholly consecrated to you in Jesus name. * * * * * * PRAYER OF CONSECRATION Oh Lord my God, I thank you for your mercy over my life.

Devotional Box METAMORPHOSIS DEVOTIONAL. (Excerpts from Devotionalbox-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). 9th December,2014. TITLE: THANKSGIVING CANCELS OUT YOUR ERROR TEXT: Luke 17:19 “ And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.” The story of the ten lepers in Luke chapter 16 shows us how thanksgiving can cancel our errors. Ten lepers were cleansed, but only one returned to give thanks, and he received what the rest nine did not have. They were all cleansed when their leprosy receded, but the one who came to give thanks received one more thing – wholeness. In other words, his skin became as fresh as that of a new born baby; his scars; the effect of his affliction was completely taken away. And also, all that he had lost during the time of his challenges was restored. Glory to God! Did you make a mistake in the course of this year which has left a scar on you? Thanksgiving is what you need to erase those scars, because in thanksgiving, your records of wrong are wiped, so that no trace of the effects of your mistake remains. As you give thanks to God this season for all He has done in your life, His power would move into your life to perfect all that concerns you. Wholeness is yours as you praise His Name now! Say Amen to that! * * * * * * * ISAIAH PROPHESIES: May thanksgivings proceed from your inside today in Jesus name. * * * * * * * Action Points DO THIS: Set out time to thank the God whole heartedly today. * * * * * * * SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that my life is full of the goodness of God. * * * * * * * STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: ZECHARIAH 9, ACTS 25, PSALMS 12 * * * * * * * CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS COUNTRY: ANTIGUA & BARBUDA ANTIGUA & BARBUDA is a twin island; it has a population of 85,632, mostly made up of black people. 74% of them are Christians while Non-Christian religions practiced in the islands include the Movement, Islam, Judaism. * * * * * * * PRAY FOR ANTIGUA AND BARBUDA: We are praying for Antigua & Barbuda that the eyes of the people will be opened to know the Lord. * * * * * * * Continuous Praying Startup prayer: Dear Lord, I worship you for all you have done in my life, thank you for your ever abiding love in Jesus name. * * * * * * PRAYER OF CONSECRATION Oh Lord my God, I thank you for your mercy over my life.

METAMORPHOSIS (Excerpts from Devotional Box-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). *** 11th December, 2014. *** TITLE: THANKSGIVING WITHOUT FAITH IS NOTHING *** Hebrews 11:6 “But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.” *** Faithfulness is not the same thing as faith. A man can faithfully adhere to an instruction and yet have no faith concerning it. In other words, He has no conviction that He would receive a reward for His labour. This is not the right mindset for a believer. However hard you dance in praise to God, and regardless of how large your offering is, they all count for nothing if your heart is without faith towards God while you thank Him. Beyond the utterance of thanks and the exhaustive display of gratitude, God expects us to thank Him with an expectation of the blessing. He has not called us to thank Him for nothing (Isa. 45:19). Therefore, look into God’s Word today to see the benefits of thanksgiving. Have an expectation to receive from God as you thank Him this season, because with faith in your heart, He will bless you with an exceeding abundantly above measure. Glory to God *** ISAIAH PROPHESIES: Receive the right attitude of thanksgiving today in Jesus name. *** ACTION POINTS DO THIS: Meditate on the scripture Isaiah 45:19 and let faith well up within you. SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that every plan of the devil against my life is brought to nothing in Jesus name. *** STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: ZECHARIAH 11, ACTS 27, PSALMS 14 *** CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS ANTIGUA & BARBUDA ANTIGUA & BARBUDA is a twin island; it has a population of 85,632, mostly made up of black people. 74% of them are Christians while Non-Christian religions practiced in the islands include the Movement, Islam, Judaism . PRAY FOR ANTIGUA & BARBUDA: We are praying for Antigua & Barbuda that every hold of darkness over the people be broken off them in Jesus name. *** STARTUP PRAYER: Dear Lord, help me to thank you with a heart full of faith and expectations in Jesus name. * * * * * * PRAYER OF CONSECRATION Thank you Lord Jesus for a successful 2014, to you be all the praise and Glory for all my accomplishments in the course of the year. Oh Lord, as the year ends, i dedicate myself to you asking for you to guide me to serve you better and to be positioned for greater availability in your Kingdom.

METAMORPHOSIS (Excerpts from Devotional Box-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). *** 12th December, 2014 *** TITLE: TELL OF GOD’S GOODNESS *** Psalms 92:2 “To shew forth thy loving kindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night.” *** In preparing for thanksgiving, you must plan to tell of God’s goodness. It is of no use keeping to yourself what God has done for you. We see in our text today how that David set his heart to keep himself busy with talking about God’s goodness and faithfulness all day long. This is an important element in thanksgiving. Do not think that your testimony is insignificant. No, it’s not! It is so potent, it can save a life! The testimonies of Andrew and Philip brought their brothers to Jesus (John 1:40-46),that of the Samaritan woman saved an entire city (John 4). Glory to God! Your thanksgiving would not be complete until you testify of God’s goodness. Plan to step out in the congregation and share your testimony; tell someone about His loving kindness and faithfulness as you go about your business and assignment today.

METAMORPHOSIS DEVOTIONAL. (Excerpts from Devotionalbox- a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). 13th December,2014. TITLE: THANK GOD WITH AN OFFERING TEXT: Genesis 8:21 “And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake…” One of the ways we have learnt to appreciate our parents, spouse, friends or relations is by presenting them with gifts, an attempt at expressing how much they mean to us or how much we value who they have been to us. By our gift, we create a memorial of our love for them. In the same way, an offering to God in thanksgiving is a memorial before Him, a sweet smelling savour. Observe God’s response to the offering of Noah as seen in our scriptural text today. God resolved henceforth not to curse the ground; the source of man’s food and sustenance. Therefore, set out in your heart to thank the Lord in a big way this season. Resolve not to appear before Him empty-handed (Exo. 23:15), but predetermine what you would offer to Him as you appear before Him in thanksgiving.A blessing awaits you! * * * * * * * ISAIAH PROPHESIES: May your offerings to God be a sweet smelling savour this season in Jesus name. * * * * * * * Action Points DO THIS: Prepare a special package to offer to God in thanksgiving this season. * * * * * * * SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that my mouth will not cease to sing His praise. * * * * * * * STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: ZECHARIAH 13, ROMANS 1, PSALMS 16 * * * * * * * CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS.

METAMORPHOSIS (Excerpts from Devotional Box-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). *** 14th December, 2014 *** TITLE: THANKSGIVING PRESERVES YOUR BLESSINGS *** Ecclesiastes 3:14 “I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever.” *** Just like a man can be stripped of his possession if he fails to provide necessary evidence of ownership, the devil often time strips believers of their blessings because they cannot present the receipt of ownership. And what would that receipt be? - Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving acknowledges God as the Source of our blessings. Our prayer of thanksgiving is therefore a declaration that what we have received came from God, ascribing the right of retrieval to Him alone. This keeps the devil out, and thus, we sanctify and preserve that blessing. Glory to God! What blessing are you on the verge of losing at the moment? Is it your marriage or the job God gave you? Set aside time today to dance and praise God over it. Declare boldly that God is the Source of your blessing, and He will keep your blessing intact. Halleluyah! I Prophecy by Isaiah: May thanksgivings become a part of your lifestyle in Jesus name. *** ACTION POINTS DO THIS: Conclude in your heart to acknowledge everything that God does in your life. SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that my life is attracting new things. *** STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: ZECHARIAH 14, ROMANS 2, PSALMS 17 *** CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS ANTIGUA & BARBUDA ANTIGUA & BARBUDA is a twin island; it has a population of 85,632, mostly made up of black people. 74% of them are Christians while Non-Christian religions practiced in the islands include the Movement, Islam, Judaism .

METAMORPHOSIS (Excerpts from Devotional Box-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). *** 15th December, 2014 *** TITLE: ENROL FOR GOD’S BLESSING *** Malachi 3:16 “Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name.” *** Our text today says that God listens to the conversations of men and gives special attention to what is said. A book of remembrance is opened before Him each time you thank Him or talk about His goodness. But why does God do this? God writes your Name in the Book so that He may do you good in the day of need, and to make you reap what you have been declaring concerning Him all along. Glory to God! Mordecai would have died had the King not found his name in the book of records (Esther. 6). Much in the same way, God will visit you according to how your confession of Him has been in times past. With your words, you can enrol yourself for God’s visitation. How? By constantly talking about His faithfulness even in the midst of adversity. Therefore, what will you say about God today? Speak about His love, mercy and goodness and enrol yourself for special end of year blessings. *** ISAIAH PROPHECIES: May the blessings of God overflow in your life in Jesus name. *** ACTION POINTS DO THIS: Be conscious of your words. Fill your heart with thoughts of God and with His word, so that words of faith naturally proceed from you. SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that I am blessed beyond words. *** STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: GENESIS 1, ROMANS 3, PSALMS 18 *** CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS ANTIGUA & BARBUDA ANTIGUA & BARBUDA is a twin island; it has a population of 85,632, mostly made up of black people. 74% of them are Christians while Non-Christian religions practiced in the islands include the Movement, Islam, Judaism .

METAMORPHOSIS (Excerpts from Devotional Box-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). *** 16th December, 2014 *** TITLE: ACCESS PEACE THROUGH THANKSGIVING *** John 14:27 “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” *** These days, almost every breaking news is about conflict, wars, natural disasters, poverty and hunger, but the promise of Christ Jesus to us is that His peace would remain with us. As children of God, we have been given the right to access God’s peace even in the midst of trying situations. Praise God! The absence of peace is the reason for anxiety. In times of troubles and challenges, Philippians 4:7 tells us to make our request known to God with prayers, supplication and thanksgiving. Then it says that His peace that surpasses our understanding would rule our hearts. Thus we see that God does not expect us to cry, worry or fear. He wants us to access His peace through thanksgiving. Glory to God! Do you have any form of anxiety or worry about any area of your life? Speak to the Lord today and ask him to fill your heart with His peace. Maintain an atmosphere of thanksgiving as you await the situation to turn around in your favour. As you do, you will be amazed at how fast all your worries will give way to songs of rejoicing. Halleluyah! *** ISAIAH PROPHESIES: May you abide in His overwhelming peace today in Jesus name. *** ACTION POINTS DO THIS: Begin to speak the word even for every bit of worry or anxiety in your life now. SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that my life is covered with the goodness of God. *** STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: GENESIS 2, ROMANS 4, PSALMS 19 *** CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS ARGENTINA Christians are the most in Argentina but statistics of their religious beliefs shows that; 23.8% of them claim to always attend religious services; 49.1%, seldom do and 26.8%, never do. PRAY FOR ARGENTINA: We are praying for Argentina that the Glory of God will fill that nation that many will long for His presence. *** STARTUP PRAYER: Dear Lord, fill me with your peace that passeth all understanding in Jesus name. * * * * * * PRAYER OF CONSECRATION Thank you Lord Jesus for a successful 2014, to you be all the praise and Glory for all my accomplishments in the course of the year.

METAMORPHOSIS DEVOTIONAL. (Excerpts from Devotionalbox-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). 17th December,2014. TITLE: WHERE ARE YOUR PARENTS? TEXT: Exodus 20:12 “Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.” Where are your parents on your gratitude list? No where near the top? Big mistake! Your present status in the society notwithstanding, your parents played a vital role in your rise to the top. If they had held back at the time they sponsored your education or catered for your needs in your growing up days, where would the present success you have come from? Our text today is a promise from God which comes with a condition – honour your parents and you can be assured of longevity. Notice that God did not say, honour your father and your mother IF they have a warm personality. In other words, not even their character is enough excuse to dishonour or abandon them. Honouring your parents starts with appreciating them for all their labour over you. If you do not have biological parents anymore, you can extend this honour to your guardian, or persons who have watched over you or cared for you. Through a surprise visit, an unexpected gift or just the constant supply for their needs, show gratitude to your parents today, that your days may be long upon the earth. Amen. * * * * * * * ISAIAH PROPHESIES: Let the wisdom of God rest upon you mightily today in Jesus name. * * * * * * * Action Points DO THIS: Call your parents to begin with and package something special for them this month. * * * * * * * SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that there is no going backwards in my life. * * * * * * * STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: GENESIS 3, ROMANS 5, PSALMS 20 * * * * * * * CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS COUNTRY: ARGENTINA Christians are the most in Argentina but statistics of their religious beliefs shows that; 23.8% of them claim to always attend religious services; 49.1%, seldom do and 26.8%, never do. * * * * * * * * PRAY FOR ARGENTINA: We are praying for Argentina for a mighty revival in the land, that many will encounter God and want more of Him. * * * * * * * Continuous Praying Startup prayer: Dear Lord, give me grace to honor my parents at all times in Jesus name. * * * * * * * PRAYER OF CONSECRATION Thank you Lord Jesus for a successful 2014,to you be all praise and glory for all my accomplishments in the course of the year.

METAMORPHOSIS (Excerpts from Devotional Box-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). *** 18th December, 2014 *** TITLE: MUCH TO BE THANKFUL FOR *** Psalms 97:12 “Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.” *** Do not be deceived into thinking that God has done nothing worth thanking Him for. Our text today talks about thanking Him for His Holiness and rejoicing for the gift of righteousness. Wow! So those are enough reasons to thank Him? Yes! How often we think, ‘I would have danced and given God a big seed if only I had gotten that contract’; ‘If only my mother had survived the sickness’; or ‘how I wish I were married yet’. But unknown to us, these paralyzing thoughts of ‘what ifs’ and ‘how I wish’ are Satan’s strategy for blinding us to the faithfulness of God, stealing our worship, and robbing us of the attendant blessings of giving God thanks. Thanksgiving heals, restores and makes whole (Luke 17:19). So what would you rather have? Regret, complaints or the blessing of giving thanks? Take time out now and begin to thank the Lord for the breath in your nostrils, the salvation of your soul and your place with Christ in His Kingdom (Col. 1:12-13). Oh, Glory to God! *** ISAIAH PROPHESIES: May your eyes be opened to see all that God is in your life today in Jesus name. ACTION POINTS DO THIS: Repent for making light anything God has done in your life and determine to glorify Him for everything. SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that no weapon formed against me shall prosper. *** STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: GENESIS 4, ROMANS 6, PSALMS 21 *** CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS ARGENTINA Christians are the most in Argentina but statistics of their religious beliefs shows that; 23.8% of them claim to always attend religious services; 49.1%, seldom do and 26.8%, never do. PRAY FOR ARGENTINA: We are praying for Argentina that the love for God in the hearts of the people will abound more and more in that nation. *** STARTUP PRAYER: Dear Lord, thank you for your faithfulness in my life, strengthen me to express my gratitude to you always in Jesus name. * * * * * * PRAYER OF CONSECRATION Thank you Lord Jesus for a successful 2014, to you be all the praise and Glory for all my accomplishments in the course of the year.

METAMORPHOSIS (Excerpts from Devotional Box-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). *** 19th December, 2014 *** TITLE: GOD HAS NO ABANDONED PROJECT *** Philippians 1:6 “Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.” *** Our worship and thanksgiving to God is not for Him but for ourselves, because we are the ones who are blessed in the process. And one of such blessings we receive when we thank the Lord is the perfection of what He has already started in our lives. Our text today reminds us that God keeps working in us and for us until He completes his project in our lives. When we cry unto God about a need, His Word first comes as a comfort. That promise from God’s Word is only the precursor. The secret to receiving the rest from God is thanksgiving. Being grateful for the promise and thanking Him in anticipation of the performance, fuels the completion of what God has started in your life. Glory to God! Have you prayed about a matter? Do not complain or entertain worry, but sustain your prayer till His Word comes. And when His Word comes, hold on to it with thanksgiving, for as you learn to do this, testimonies of answered prayers would be common place in your life. Say Amen to that! *** ISAIAH PROPHESIES: May testimonies never cease from your lip today in Jesus name. ACTION POINTS DO THIS: Thank the Lord rather than complain or regret about anything. SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that my life is fruitful and I am moving up. *** STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: GENESIS 5, ROMANS 7, PSALMS 22 *** CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS ARGENTINA Christians are the most in Argentina but statistics of their religious beliefs shows that; 23.8% of them claim to always attend religious services; 49.1%, seldom do and 26.8%, never do. PRAY FOR ARGENTINA: We are praying for the Christians in Argentina that they will walk perfect and complete in all the will of God. *** STARTUP PRAYER: Dear Lord, thank you for your revelation today, I hold onto it with thanksgiving in Jesus name. * * * * * * PRAYER OF CONSECRATION Thank you Lord Jesus for a successful 2014, to you be all the praise and Glory for all my accomplishments in the course of the year.

METAMORPHOSIS DEVOTIONAL. (Excerpts from Devotionalbox-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). 20th December,2014. TITLE: HE QUALIFIED YOU! TEXT: Colossians 1:12-13 Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: God’s love for man is immeasurably great. The Bible says that while we were yet sinners and undeserving, Christ died for us (Rom. 5:,prompting a change in nature, one which saw us becoming instant partakers of God’s own Nature, qualifying us to inherit His Glory. Praise God! By birth, all men are citizens of hell because they possess the nature of sin which qualifies them for the wrath of God (Ephesians 2:2-3). However those who accept the sacrifice and Lordship of Christ become new creatures in Christ, qualifying them to partake in the Glory of God. So, are you born again? If you are, then you are qualified to partake of the inheritance of the saints. Let your heart thus resonate in thanksgiving to God knowing that He qualified you. But if you are not yet born again, there is good news for you; you can put off the nature of sin and death right now and take on the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. (Say the prayer of salvation on this leaflet and you will receive Eternal Life).

METAMORPHOSIS DEVOTIONAL. (Excerpts from Devotionalbox-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). 21st December,2014. TITLE: THE LIFESTLYE OF THANKSGIVING TEXT: Colossians 3:15 “And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.” Often when thanksgiving is mentioned, what comes to mind is a set day of festivity wherein we gather in cathedrals and churches to offer gifts lavishly. Yet, thanksgiving transcends this. It is an attitude, one which is not only expressed towards God on a set day, but lived daily and demonstrated in a lifestyle of appreciating everyone through whom God blesses us. The attitude of expecting favours from people as a matter of obligation is wrong. Your daily comfort is dependent on the labour of some people. Besides their pay and remuneration, they deserve appreciation too. Learn to say thank you even to the Cab driver, your Cook, your kid’s teacher and everyone whose service keeps you from being stranded each day. Today, you must remember those who have helped you to get to the place where you currently are in your life, because in truth, life could have been quite miserable without them. Do not delay in this, start it now. * * * * * * * ISAIAH PROPHESIES: May your lifestyle bring glory to God today in Jesus name. * * * * * * * Action Points DO THIS: Say thank you to all those that provide a service to you like your gateman, cook, cleaner, cab driver etc * * * * * * * SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that my life is on a constant rise. * * * * * * * STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: GENESIS 7, ROMANS 9, PSALMS 24 * * * * * * * CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS COUNTRY: ARGENTINA Christians are the most in Argentina but statistics of their religious beliefs shows that; 23.8% of them claim to always attend religious services; 49.1%, seldom do and 26.8%, never do. * * * * * * * PRAY FOR ARGENTINA: We are praying for the Christians in Argentina that they would be people of the Spirit and not of the flesh. * * * * * * * Continuous Praying Startup prayer: Dear Lord, give me a heart that shows gratitude to all around me always in Jesus name. * * * * * * * PRAYER OF CONSECRATION Thank you Lord Jesus for a successful 2014,to you be all praise and glory for all my accomplishments in the course of the year.

METAMORPHOSIS DEVOTIONAL. (Excerpts from Devotionalbox-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). 22nd December,2014. TITLE: PATIENCE: A GRATITUDE INDEX TEXT: Colossians 3:12-13a “Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; forbearing one another…” How do you tell if a man is truly grateful for what God has made Him? Such a man acknowledges that He is a product of God’s Grace, not His own effort. How? By being patient with the imperfect, immature believers, knowing that God’s Grace is at work in them also. It takes the Grace of God to grow and mature in the things of God. As believers, we are not to treat others rashly or to think of ourselves more highly than we ought to. (Rom. 12:3). Rather, we are expected to patiently exhort those whose way of life falls short of God’s standard (2Tim. 2:25), praying for them and nurturing the hope that they would someday change. Glory to God! Therefore, measure your gratitude level today with the patience index. The level of your gratitude can be measured by how patient you are with those who are weak.

METAMORPHOSIS DEVOTIONAL. (Excerpts from Devotionalbox-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). 23rd December,2014. TITLE: MAGNIFY GOD TEXT: Psalms 69:30 “I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.” To magnify literarily means to enlarge a thing. In another sense, it is to amplify something. Our text today identifies thanksgiving as a tool for magnifying God. How is this so, and for what purpose must we magnify God? In thanksgiving, a man testifies of God’s goodness. This act of faith brings God into the picture; into the imagination of those who hear him, causing the hearts of those who have not thought or sought after God to suddenly desire Him. Thanksgiving makes God visible where he had hitherto been unseen. Magnifying God through your testimony of His goodness is also a way of seeking Him, because not only does it create a consciousness of God in your heart, it drives others to seek Him also. And as we see in Psalms 69:32, magnifying God comes with a blessing; everything at the core of your life shall live! Shout Amen! * * * * * * * ISAIAH PROPHESIES: May your words magnify God today in Jesus name. * * * * * * * Action Points DO THIS: Purposefully share of His goodness, let magnifying God be your focus this season. * * * * * * * SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that I am encompassed with favour like a shield. * * * * * * * STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: GENESIS 9, ROMANS 11, PSALMS 26 * * * * * * * CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS COUNTRY: ARGENTINA Christians are the most in Argentina but statistics of their religious beliefs shows that;23.8% of them claim to always attend religious services; 49.1%, seldom do and 26.8%, never do. * * * * * * * PRAY FOR ARGENTINA: We are praying for the Christians in Argentina that they would hunger and thirst after righteousness. * * * * * * * Continuous Praying Startup prayer: Dear Lord, I exalt you with my life. Without you there is no me. I live to praise you in Jesus name. * * * * * * * Continuous Praying Startup prayer: Dear Lord, I receive grace to live patiently with all around me in Jesus name. * * * * * * * PRAYER OF CONSECRATION Thank you Lord Jesus for a successful 2014,to you be all praise and glory for all my accomplishments in the course of the year.

METAMORPHOSIS DEVOTIONAL. (Excerpts from Devotionalbox-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). 25th December,2014. TITLE: GET A BIRTHDAY GIFT FOR JESUS TEXT:Luke 15:7 “I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.” If Christ were present in bodily form on the earth today, there would have been an avalanche of gifts at His doorsteps on this special day. Many would have offered to take Him out or to book for time on Satellite TV to spread His fame. But what is the best gift you can give to Him on this special day? The best gift you can give to celebrate a man on a day like this is that which shows your commitment to His values; that which connects you to His passion and heart’s desire. This, to Christ, is Soul winning. Remember how that He said His mission was to seek and to save the lost (Luke 19:10). It is clear then that the best gift for Christ today is that of a soul. What would you do to ensure that at least one more soul accepts Him as Lord today? This is the way to put a broad smile on the Saviour’s face on His birthday and every day. Halleluyah! * * * * * * * ISAIAH PROPHESIES: May your life draw others to Christ today in Jesus name. * * * * * * * Action Points DO THIS: Reach out to someone today and show them the love of Christ and how that they mean so much to Him. * * * * * * * SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that I am blessed in double folds today. * * * * * * * STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: GENESIS 11, ROMANS 13, PSALMS 28 * * * * * * * CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS: COUNTRY: Armenia 35% of their population is unreached with the Gospel. Armenia is an island of Christianity in a sea of Islam. Training for leaders and laity is lacking, but is being addressed. * * * * * * * PRAY FOR ARMENIA: We are praying for Armenia that the doors of the Gospel of Christ be opened in that nation. * * * * * * * Continuous Praying Startup prayer: Dear Father, thank you for a day like this when you gave your son for my salvation, help me to touch others for you in Jesus name. * * * * * * * PRAYER OF CONSECRATION Thank you Lord Jesus for a successful 2014,to you be all praise and glory for all my accomplishments in the course of the year.

METAMORPHOSIS (Excerpts from Devotional Box-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). *** 26th December, 2014 *** TITLE: DO NOT BREAK THE HEDGE *** Ecclesiastes 10:8 “He that diggeth a pit shall fall into it; and whoso breaketh an hedge, a serpent shall bite him.” *** Have you ever heard someone say ‘Bible or no Bible, this is what I want to do.’ Or ‘Do not bring Church into this matter’? What do these statements mean to you? They are nothing but avenues to gratify the desires of the flesh while setting aside the Will of God, a practice that comes with grave consequences. In the realms of the Spirit, there are patterns. These are revealed in God’s Word as instructions and principles by which a believer must live daily. Those who violate spiritual principles do so at their own peril, for one cannot expect to be protected by God when he wilfully ignores His instructions because of how he feels. God’s call for you to praise Him, or to study His Word, or to pray for your own benefit, and must therefore not be taken with levity. Strengthen your commitment to study God’s Word, know His Will and obey them. This is how to secure His blessings over your life this season and every day. Halleluyah! *** ISAIAH PROPHESIES: Let the word of God be your highest standard today in Jesus name. *** ACTION POINTS DO THIS: Place the study of the word and the activities of the spirit as the highest priority in your life. SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that smallness and stagnation are far away from me. *** STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: GENESIS 12, ROMANS 14, PSALMS 29 *** CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS Armenia 35% of their population is unreached with the Gospel. Armenia is an island of Christianity in a sea of Islam. Training for leaders and laity is lacking, but is being addressed. PRAY FOR ARMENIA: We are praying for Armenia that labourers will arise in that nation to take the Gospel to neighbouring nations. *** STARTUP PRAYER: Dear Lord, help me never to take your word with levity in Jesus name. * * * * * * PRAYER OF CONSECRATION Thank you Lord Jesus for a successful 2014, to you be all the praise and Glory for all my accomplishments in the course of the year. Oh Lord, as the year ends, i dedicate myself to you asking for you to guide me to serve you better and to be positioned for greater availability in your Kingdom.

METAMORPHOSIS (Excerpts from Devotional Box-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). *** Saturday, 27th December, 2014 *** TITLE: DEVELOP CONSISTENCY TEXT: Acts 2:42 “And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.” God is our Source; there is nothing we need that His divine power has not made available for us, yet a double-minded believer would receive nothing of His provisions (James 1:. Why? Because it takes consistency in seeking God, knowing His will and doing them for an unceasing flow of His blessing to be sustained. More so, spiritual growth occurs with successive obedience, tying your rate of growth to your ability to obey God’s Word continuously. Our text today highlights the disposition of the believers in the early Church; they continued steadfastly in what they have been taught from the Word of God. Little wonder why they grew and multiplied greatly (Acts 2:47). Glory to God! You can grow faster in your spiritual life by putting in place systems that would help you attend to and obey God’s Word continuously in the incoming year. Start by making up your mind to continue in Thanksgiving today, taking diligence to put into practice all that you have been taught by God’s Spirit through His Word. * * * ISAIAH PROPHESIES: Receive grace for consistency in Jesus name. * * * ACTION POINTS DO THIS: Make a practice of consistency. Begin by putting God in your thoughts throughout today. - - SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that as the year runs to a close the Lord perfects all that concerns me. - - STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: GENESIS 13, ROMANS 15, PSALMS 30 - - STARTUP PRAYER: Dear Lord, help me to be thankful today in Jesus Name. * * * CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS - ARMENIA 35% of their population is unreached with the Gospel.

METAMORPHOSIS DEVOTIONAL. (Excerpts from Devotionalbox-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). 28th December,2014. TITLE: EXPECT MORE! TEXT: Ephesians 3:20 “Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us.” Where asking and receiving from God is concerned, many believers only know that there is a God in heaven who answers prayers. Well, that is true and valid, yet, there is a deeper truth which our text today opens our eyes to: God is able to even surpass our expectations. Glory! Our God is God of addition. When Jesus taught about giving and receiving, He stated in clear terms that a greater measure would be given back to anyone who offers to God. (Luk. 6:38)The practice of giving to God without expecting a harvest of multiple blessings is not consistent with the God kind of faith. When we worship, thank or praise God, it is faith to expect His blessing to follow. So we see that it is faith, not greed, to approach God with full assurance that He is able to do exceeding abundantly above all we have asked or given. Therefore, do not hesitate to come before Him today thanking Him for the harvest that lay ahead. Expect more because there is abundance coming! * * * * * * * ISAIAH PROPHESIES: Be bold to remind God of His promises to you today in Jesus name. * * * * * * * Action Points DO THIS: Maintain an expectant heart. Expect God’s intervention in your life always. * * * * * * * SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that my year ends on a glorious note. * * * * * * * STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: GENESIS 14, ROMANS 16, PSALMS 31 * * * * * * * CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS COUNTRY: Armenia 35% of their population is unreached with the Gospel. Armenia is an island of Christianity in a sea of Islam. Training for leaders and laity is lacking, but is being addressed. * * * * * * * PRAY FOR ARMENIA: We are praying for Armenia that the light of the glorious Gospel of Christ will shine in the hearts of the people in the land. * * * * * * * Continuous Praying Startup prayer: Dear Lord, today I lay claim on all you have given me in Jesus name. * * * * * * * PRAYER OF CONSECRATION Thank you Lord Jesus for a successful 2014,to you be all praise and glory for all my accomplishments in the course of the year.

METAMORPHOSIS (Excerpts from Devotional Box-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). *** Monday 29th December, 2014. * * * TITLE: DAILY MEASURE OF THANKSGIVING SCRIPTURAL TEXT: (Psalms 68:19) “Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation.” - - God’s Agenda is for man to constantly and continuously worship Him. Our scriptural text today shows us that His blessings come to us daily, revealing the regularity with which He expects us to worship and thank Him also. The story of the creation in Genesis 1 highlights how He created various things on different days and set these in order on the earth. He planned and planted new things in every new day for you to discover, so that with every discovery you would worship and praise Him. Glory to God! Thanksgiving helps to keep your mind on God and helps you to ceaselessly worship Him. Failure to see and acknowledge that which He does in our lives daily is therefore an anomaly. Rather, with every news of progress, and every promise fulfilled, you ought to lift up your hands to Him in worship and to express your gratitude to Him because He is a great King, and He deserves your worship. Amen! ISAIAH PROPHESIES: May you see God in everything around you today in Jesus name. * * * ACTION POINTS - - DO THIS: let thanksgiving proceed from your lips for everything He does in your life today. SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that my future is a great one. STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: GENESIS 15, 1 COR 1, PSALMS 32 * * * CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS: Armenia 35% of their population is unreached with the Gospel. Armenia is an island of Christianity in a sea of Islam. Training for leaders and laity is lacking, but is being addressed. PRAY FOR ARMENIA: We are praying for Armenia for more pastors and leaders to be trained in the things of the spirit. STARTUP PRAYER: Dear Lord, help me express my gratitude in every way today in Jesus name. * * * * * * PRAYER OF CONSECRATION Thank you Lord Jesus for a successful 2014, to you be all the praise and Glory for all my accomplishments in the course of the year. Oh Lord, as the year ends, i dedicate myself to you asking for you to guide me to serve you better and to be positioned for greater availability in your Kingdom.

METAMORPHOSIS (Excerpts from Devotional Box-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). *** Monday 30th December, 2014. * * * TITLE: HAND OVER YOUR CARES * * * SCRIPTURAL TEXT: Mathew 13:22 He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful. * * * The Word of God is quick and powerful, potent and effectual, but in our text today, Jesus talks about certain things which have the potential to snuff out the Word of God in your life. First on that list is what He calls the care of this world; an impulsive drive to satisfy one’s daily needs at the expense of spiritual values. Our text today makes it clear that anyone who allows His love for God to slow down because of his pursuit for daily bread is fast running down the slope of unfruitfulness. If the cares of this world makes you neglect or doubt the promises of God for your life, then God is calling on you to hand over those cares to Him so He can give you peace in return. Glory to God! So how do I go about handing my cares to God? Phil 4:6 has the answer; be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God and God’s peace that passes understanding will fill your heart. This is how to root out the cares of this world and give God a place to operate in your life. Do it now! * * * ISAIAH PROPHESIES: May your focus remain on God today in Jesus name. * * * ACTION POINTS DO THIS: Turn every worry to a prayer. Put things around you to constantly remind you of God and His place in your life. SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that my life is completely for the Lord. Nothing can take the place of God in my heart. * * * STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: GENESIS 16, 1 COR 2, PSALMS 33 * * * CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS: ARMENIA 35% of their population is unreached with the Gospel. Armenia is an island of Christianity in a sea of Islam. Training for leaders and laity is lacking, but is being addressed. PRAY FOR ARMENIA: We are praying for the Christians in Armenia that they will be strengthened in their spirit to stand for the truth in the Gospel at all times. * * * STARTUP PRAYER: Dear Lord, I receive grace today to place my mind and thoughts on you always in Jesus name. * * * * * * PRAYER OF CONSECRATION Thank you Lord Jesus for a successful 2014, to you be all the praise and Glory for all my accomplishments in the course of the year.

METAMORPHOSIS (Excerpts from Devotional Box-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). *** Wednesday 31st December, 2014. TITLE: COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS * * * SCRIPTURAL TEXT: (Psalms 105:5) “Remember his marvellous works that he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;” * * * Today offers another opportunity to take a retrospective glance at 2014. For all the challenges and difficult times, God stood with you and you made it thus far. Thus the psalmist instructs us in our text today to remember God’s marvellous works, for it is when we bring to remembrance all that he has done, that we can give him the praise and thanks due his Name. Therefore, spend time today taking stock of all that God has done for you this year. Count your blessings in the company of your family, friends and loved ones, and give God thanks for all He has done. Be grateful even for each and every inch of progress. Glory to God! Most importantly, let the New Year meet you in God’s Presence. Let nothing other than God be your preoccupation when the final seconds of the year 2014 would count. He has a word for you today about the incoming year; be in his presence to hear it tonight. Halleluyah! * * * ISAIAH PROPHESIES: May your life be aligned with God’s perfect plan for your life today in Jesus name. * * * ACTION POINTS DO THIS: Spend quality time in His presence, talking with Him, and fellowshipping with Him. Make plans to be in the cross over service tonight. * * * SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that 2015 is a fruitful year for me. * * * STUDY YOUR BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: GENESIS 17, 1 COR 3, PSALMS 34 * * * CHRISTIAN MISSION FOCUS: Armenia 35% of their population is unreached with the Gospel.

Re: December Devotional From Gospel Pillars Ministry by macjireh: 9:38am On Jan 02, 2015 |
Happy New Year to you! Here is the meal for the day. - - - METAMORPHOSIS (Excerpts from Devotional Box-a daily Devotional by Dr. Isaiah and Lianna Wealth). *** Friday 2nd January, 2015. TITLE: START WITH THE NEEDFUL SCRIPTURAL REFERENCE: (Luke 10:41-42) “And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: but one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.” * * * Martha thought it necessary to entertain Jesus, yet the Master would have her understand something vital; the Word of God is more necessary than food, money, or any such thing you might have to give to God. This is deep wisdom! Some things precede the others; certain things cannot be postponed or compromised. This is the truth that our opening scripture emphasises. The reason many Christians are knocked down when there are challenges is because they have not been diligent in spending time in fellowship with God, learning His Word and receiving light that would in turn strengthen them to overcome. Even more, all that exists in this earthly realm has its source in the spiritual. It is therefore important that you start the year with a great sense of value for spiritual things and spiritual investments if you must prosper as God desires for you in the course of the year. Your time with God is a prerequisite for your spiritual wellness and prosperity; above all things, give it priority. Halleluyah! LIANNA PROPHESIES: May your value for the word increase in Jesus name. * * * ACTION POINTS DO THIS : Put yourself on a word diet of atleast 4 chapters of the bible daily. Refuse anything to take that time from you. SAY THIS: I decree and I declare that my love for God this year knows no bound.
