Title : You Can Do Better Than The Angels.

-

"Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word. Psalms 103:20"

Devotion : Our opening Scripture is a command to the elect angels of the LORD of Hosts. God's angels that excel in strength, do His commandments, and hearken unto the voice of the LORD, are commanded to bless the LORD. This is awesome, because God only accepts praise and worship from godly creation. He doesn't accept praise and worship from devils and demons. 
   In Mark 5:8.Jesus rejected praise from demons, "For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit."
  Apostle Paul did not accept praise from demons, Acts 16:16-18. In verse 18. Paul commanded the unclean spirit to come out of her saying, "I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour."
  Mankind, who are created in the image of God, can offer blessings, praise/worship, and hear the voice of the LORD better than the angels simply because they are God's image.   The born again Christian has a greater responsibility here to offer holy blessings, praise/worship, and hear the voice of God better than all of God's creation. We need to praise/worship Him more than ask for our needs. Hallelujah.
  Dearly beloved, do you praise/worship GOD more than you ask for your needs? Share your comments here!

Title: Divine Acceleration.

-
Genesis 41:40-41  Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou. And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt. And he made him to ride in the second chariot which he had; and they cried before him, Bow the knee: and he made him ruler over all the land of Egypt. Devotion: Have you ever felt like your dreams are taking too long to come true? Like you're walking a slow path while others seem to be racing ahead? Take heart—God is a God of acceleration! When He steps in, He can take you from waiting to walking in His promises in an instant.   Consider the story of Joseph. Sold into slavery by his own brothers, imprisoned for a crime he didn’t commit—it seemed like his dreams were slipping further away. But when God's appointed time arrived, Joseph was promoted from the prison to the palace in a single day! (Genesis 41:14-41). Years of waiting, hardship, and ...

Title: Wisdom from God.

-
Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV [5] Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; And lean not unto thine own understanding. [6] In all thy ways acknowledge him, And he shall direct thy paths. Devotion:  If you’ve ever gone on a trip somewhere you’ve never been, you know how important it is to have a map. Maps help us navigate the unknown areas ahead. Similarly, God’s Word helps us navigate through the unknown seasons of life. It reveals God’s wisdom, which can be essential in guiding our lives.  The book of Proverbs is filled with wisdom and knowledge that helps people live according to God’s purposes for their life. It starts by acknowledging that everything begins with God.   Because God is the creator of life, He knows what direction our lives should go. Our role, according to Proverbs, is to seek Him and trust Him. Trusting God means having a relationship with Him and believing that He knows what's best for us.   The more we trust in God and submit our lives to Him, the more we wi...
