Your Devotional message for 3rd October
Scripture:
That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him (Ephesians 1:17).
Explanation:
Today is the day 3 of the 31 days of our new series called ‘The Lord Spoke’.
The purpose of this series is ushering you to a deeper study on Hearing the Voice of God.
It is very important to recognize when God is speaking, and you will need to develop the ability to hear His Voice. During the time of Moses, the Lord would speak to Moses in the Cloud, however if you expect God to use that means alone you can play ignorant. In the old and New Testament, the Holy Spirit is known for His ability to speak and reveal the secret things of God as well as evil plans of the wicked. Paul was praying for the Ephesians 1:17 so they may receive the Spirit of Wisdom and Revelation. That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him (Ephesians 1:17).
Here are a few other examples of the scriptures expounding on the Spirit of Wisdom and Revelation:
Now the boy Samuel ministered to the Lord before Eli. And the word of the Lord was rare in those days; there was no widespread revelation (1 Samuel 3:1).
Then the secret was revealed to Daniel in a night vision so Daniel blessed the God of heaven (Daniel 2:19).
As they ministered to the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, “Now separate to Me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them” (Acts 13:2).
Have you received Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior?
If you are yet to receive Christ Jesus, do so today by repenting from all your sins and make Him the Lord of your life.
Thanks be to God for His fullness, grace and His victory. Glory be to God!
Stay tune as we shall continue further tomorrow. Remain uncommonly blessed.
In the Month of October 2021, do not miss any day as we will be meditating on ‘When the Lord Speaks’
Faith Confession for Grace and Power:
Our Father, Thank you, for another day. I shall be glad and rejoice in You. Thank you for salvation, divine health, grace and glory, provision, protection, and supernatural enablement. And I declare boldly that I am aglow and strong in the spirit, filled with wisdom of God; and the grace of God is upon me (Luke 2:40). The Holy Spirit is my Senior Teacher and Partner.
It is written, “And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in the demonstration of the Spirit and of power” (1 Corinthians 2:4). Behold, I receive the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt me (Luke 10:19). I operate with the great Power of God for His great works – Healing, miracles and signs and wonders. The word of God is in my mouth and as I meditate, it permeates to the deep part of my Spirit, soul, and body. I am manifesting the great power of God.
I rule over Satan and his cohort of darkness with the Fire of the Holy Ghost. I prosper in my spirit, soul, and body. My life is flourishing in all areas of life as well as my health even as my soul prospers. Success, wealth, abundance and victory are mine in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Glory be to God!
