RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

SATURDAY, 30TH JULY.

THEME: DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

OPENING SCRIPTURE: For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ) (Romans 5:17).

Sometimes, certain things happen to some of God’s children, and others wonder, “But he’s born again; how could that have happened to him?” The person probably did nothing about the situation before it got out of hand. Some Christians have the erroneous idea it’s God who must “do” something about their case, but it’s not that way. He’s given you the authority to change circumstances in His Name.

You must realize that God has done everything necessary to bring you out of any and every predicament; He’s done all that’s required for you never to fail in life. No matter what you may be going through today, be it problems at work, in your family, in your marriage, or with your children; you can be victorious. Perhaps you’re sick in your body or you have a loved one who’s suffering terribly, Jesus already settled everything. His vicarious death, burial, and triumphant resurrection was for you to have a life of glory.

You have the authority to use the Name of Jesus to effect any change you want in your life or the lives of your loved ones. Don’t say, “Whatever will be, will be!” To talk like that is to make yourself a victim in life. It’s your responsibility to ensure that the glory of God is manifested in your life. If you don’t do something, nothing will be done.

Stand firm for what you want in life. Refuse to suffer. Use the Word, the Name of Jesus, and the power of the Spirit to destroy the works of the devil, and frustrate his manoeuvres where you are. Declare God’s Word boldly over your life, your family, your job, business, academics, ministry, etc. Use the Word to effect changes in your life, city, state and country, from glory to glory.

CONFESSION
I’m victorious for life, because I live in the Word. The Word of God in my heart and in my mouth prevails today and always over circumstances. I’ve overcome the world, because greater is He that’s in me, than he that’s in the world. I live the higher life in Christ. Glory to God!
