DAILY DIVINE WORD, 15TH FEBRUARY 2020

TOPIC: BEHOLD THE DEGREE OF LOVE
TEXT: 1 John 3:1
[1]Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.

It is possible to see something and yet you don't have an understanding of the object, there are times when our mind is not even cooperating with our sight, although we are seeing but we are not taking note of what we are seeing, therefore we do not have an understanding of what we're seeing. For a better understanding, there's a need to look and our mind too looking, by that we can meditate and interpret what we have seen. 

From the text above, the scripture is giving us an instruction, the instruction is pointing us to take a deliberate look at the level of of love that God has bestowed upon us, and this love even make us to be qualified to be called "GOD'S CHILDREN". The understandin from this would then open us to the reason the world would hate us because they don't understand what we have seen. When we fix our gaze on God's love, we become more resolute in our devotion to God.

Have you ever considered the depth of God's love over you? Do you really understand what it takes to be called a child of God? Remember John 1:12 says being called a child of God is a product of receiving power. Behold the degree of God's love over your life this morning, meditate on how he died, think about how he permitted you to sit along with him in the heavenlies, and then open your heart to receiving the revelation about your worth and life in Christ.

THINK TANK: When you behold him you take hold of his face.
PRAYERFather, help to understand your love over my life in Jesus Name.
 CONFESSION: I will look unto Christ for my formation because I'm a product of his unquantifiable love.

IT'S ALREADY PREPARED

DAILY DIVINE WORD  (A Sunset Devotional) 26th July, 2025 THEME : It's Prepared Already. SCRIPTURAL REFERENCE : Mark 14: 12-15: 12 - Now on the first day of Unleavened Bread, when they killed the Passover lamb, His disciples said to Him, "Where do You want us to go and prepare, that You may eat the Passover?" 13 - And He sent out two of His disciples and said to them, "Go into the city, and a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him. 14 - Wherever he goes in, say to the master of the house, "The Teacher says, "Where is the guest room in which I may eat the Passover with My disciples?"' 15 - Then he will show you a large upper room, furnished and prepared; there make ready for us." If a man knows what has been prepared for him and when exactly it will come to him, maybe we would worry less, maybe we won't even be anxious over anything as the scripture advised us. But, the mystery about life and about walking with...

DAILY DIVINE WORD 5TH MAY 2021

Wednesday, 5th May 2021 TOPIC : ACCESS TO THE HILL TEXT : Ps.24.3-5: 3. Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place? 4. He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. 5. He shall receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation. RECENTLY there was a post by someone on social media who claimed that at the RCCG Redemption Camp, she left her reading glass on the altar believing God for miracles, and according to her she came back the following day to pick up her glasses and she will never believe anything again. This is a sad reality, that our young minds are looking for God's hands when we should focus on God's face. However, everyone desire to stand at the hills of God, everyone wants to stand at his Holy place because they understand that is where his blessings reside. But the question that has been asked for ages is "Who shall ...

DAILY DIVINE WORD 26TH JANUARY 2021

TOPIC: GUARD YOUR FREEDOM. TEXT:  1Cor.8.9 - But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to them that are weak. 1Cor.8.10 - For if any man see thee which hast knowledge sit at meat in the idol's temple, shall not the conscience of him which is weak be emboldened to eat those things which are offered to idols; 1Cor.8.11 - And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died? 1Cor.8.12 - But when ye sin so against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, ye sin against Christ. 1Cor.8.13 - Wherefore, if meat make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to offend. TRUTHFULLY  Christ came to deliver freedom to us, Christ's freedom is also freedom indeed because He says "if the son shall set you free, you shall be free indeed." He has given us freedom from traditions, laws, old practices, superstitions, tales, and the likes. So we have liberty in J...
