Your Devotional message for 21st July 2022
Scripture:
And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers (Ephesians 4:11).
Explanation:
In today Daily Meditation, day 21 of the 31 days of the month of July, we will study and meditate on the scriptures relating to our series ‘The Anointing’ – The Pastoral anointing.
And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers (Ephesians 4:11). Today, we explore the Pastoral Anointing. God Himself called some to be Pastors over congregation and anointed them to functions into that capacity. And I will give you shepherds according to My heart, who will feed you with knowledge and understanding (Jeremiah 3:15). The role of a Pastor is like that of a shepherd. Over the years, we have seen Pastors taking charge over Mega Churches with several thousand congregants. This is by the grace and the Anointing of God.
Titus showed a typical Biblical example of a Pastor:
For a bishop must be blameless, as a steward of God, not self-willed, not quick-tempered, not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for money, but hospitable, a lover of what is good, sober-minded, just, holy, self-controlled, holding fast the faithful word as he has been taught, that he may be able, by sound doctrine, both to exhort and convict those who contradict (Titus 1:7-9).
Further scriptures on the Pastoral Anointing:
For if by the one man’s offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ (Romans 5:17).
May you experience the fullness of His Spirit and the blessings and grace in every area of your life in the month of July.
Glory be to God.
Have you received Jesus Christ as your Lord and saviour?
Today, let me encourage you that Jesus Christ came for your salvation and to give you freely Eternal life. If you are yet to receive Christ, do so today by repentance from all your sins and confess Jesus Christ as Your Lord and saviour.
Glory be to God!
We would love you to stay connected as we will study and meditate on ‘The Anointing’ throughout the month of July 2022.
Faith Confession of the Month:
Thanks be to God for my salvation, divine health, grace, glory, provision, protection, eternal life, healings, and supernatural ability at work in me. With the help of the Anointing of God, I operate in the Higher dimension of the Spirit and Power of God. I am more than a conqueror every day of my life. I function in the Powerful name of Jesus with great grace and Mighty Power of God for His great works – Healings, miracles, signs, and wonders. Infirmity in my body be scattered and be destroyed by Fire. I cast you out. Behold, I take authority over serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt me (Luke 10:19). I rule over Satan and his cohort of darkness. I have the Anointing therefore I prosper, I continue prospering, until I become very prosperous. I flourish in all areas of life as well as my health even as my soul prospers. Success, wealth, financial abundance and victory are mine in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
