Psalm 34:4 (NET) I sought the Lord’s help and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears.

Sometimes, fear is evidence of a negative spiritual reality that is on its way to becoming physical, just like faith is evidence of a positive spiritual reality that is on its way to becoming physical. We experience these because we are spirit beings. When we have dealt with our fears, it means the issues generating those fears have also been dealt with. We deal with fears by seeking the Lord. He is the one we have in heaven (the spirit realm) and He takes care of us (see Ps 73:25).

We seek the Lord by praying to Him and telling Him about our fears. We can sometimes fast because fasting is a spiritual exercise that helps us better concentrate on seeking God’s face.

In today’s Bible text, did you notice that David did not say the Lord delivered Him from all his troubles but he said the Lord delivered him from all his fears? I believe he understood that the secret to sustained victory is overcoming your fears.

Fear is more dangerous than many people think; it is the vehicle through which darkness usually invades. People require faith to deal with God and receive from Him, but fear is a negative force against faith. Many times, when the Lord speaks to His people, he usually begins by saying ‘fear not’ (see Gen 15:1, 21:17, 26:24)

The Lord is telling you today to FEAR NOT because He is with you. He has promised to never leave you nor forsake you (see Deu 31:6, Mat 28:20b).

Prayer: Thank the Lord for being there for you in heaven and on earth (See Ps 73:25).

Mention all your fears to the Lord. Ask Him to take them away.—Abraham Damilola Arigi

Romans 6:12-14 (NLT) Do not let sin control the way you live; do not give in to sinful desires. 13 Do not let any part of your body become an instrument of evil to serve sin. Instead, give yourselves completely to God, for you were dead, but now you have new life. So use your whole body as an instrument to do what is right for the glory of God

When Ronke felt a little tired at the office, she would go to Ugo’s office and they would both ‘discuss’ about what is going on in the office; and what is going on in people’s houses. Ugo seemed to know everything about everyone in that office.

After this continued for three weeks, it dawned on Ronke one day that she was now a professional gossip, and yet she knew better than that. She realized that she had been using her mouth as an instrument serving sin. She repented that day.

The reason why many Christians give their bodies to sin is because they enjoy it. It wouldn’t be tempting if it were not enjoyable to the flesh. But since we are not to walk in the flesh but in the spirit, it is our responsibility to remind our minds that we are dead to sin but alive to righteousness.

The mind needs constant reminders because it has been trained to walk in the flesh since you were born. But you are now born again, so your mind needs to be reminded to walk in your new nature.

Go into today reminding yourself that you are now a new creature with a new nature. Ask the Holy Spirit to help you walk in your new nature.

Prayer confession: I am dead to sin but alive towards God. I am walking in the divine nature: I am walking above greed, fear, pride, and all forms of lust, in Jesus’ name. Amen.—Abraham Damilola Arigi

Matthew 9:29 (NIV) Then he touched their eyes and said, “According to your faith will it be done to you”

Looking at the works of the Lord Jesus in Matthew chapters 8 and 9, you would quickly observe that for everyone that believed Him for a miracle, He operated to the tune of their faith. For the synagogue leader who believed that if Jesus would come to his house and lay his hands on his daughter she would come alive, he had it that way (see Matt 9:18). For the woman with the issue of blood who believed she could touch the hem of his garment and be made whole, she also had it according to her faith (see Matt 9:21). And for the centurion whose faith Jesus commended, he believed Jesus needed only to speak the word and his servant would be made whole, and yes! He was made whole (see Matt 8:8).

God’s resources are inexhaustible, the Bible says He is able to do exceedingly, abundantly above all that we can ask or think (see Eph 3:20). There is no need in heaven or earth too great for God to meet. We need to take off our ”myopic goggles” and start seeing God for who He really is- the Omnipotent God.

Go into today believing God for great things in righteousness, knowing that He is well able to bring them to pass.

Prayer: Lord, forgive me for every time I doubted you. Right now I believe you are able to deal with every situation in my life, and I know you will. Thank you Lord. Amen.—Utieyin Uduaghan

Romans 6:11 (KJV) Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.When Eleojo was thirteen years old, he was introduced to smoking. As he grew older, he became addicted to other drugs. He received Christ when he was on campus at the age of 22. But he had a big struggle overcoming his addictions: he believed it was impossible to conquer them and certain sins. His victory started when he fully understood Rom 6:11.

Our Bible text today says we should consider ourselves dead to sin but alive unto God through Christ. Many times, Christians are defeated because they still consider themselves alive to sin: they still believe in their hearts that they cannot conquer certain sins.

You see, everything we do with God is done by faith. Our faith is based on God’s word and not on our experiences or our feelings. What today’s text reveals to us is that we should change the way we see ourselves; we should begin to see ourselves as dead to sin. We should believe this and say what we believe. This is how we cooperate with God to allow his transformation.

As you go into today, determine from this moment to believe and say only the things that God says concerning you. You should no longer believe according to your weaknesses or your past experiences but according to God’s word.

Go into today meditating on this: 2 Corinthians 5:17 (NKJV) Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

*You will act right when you start believing right.

Prayer Confession: I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. I am walking in the Divine nature and pleasing God in all respects. The grace of God is empowering me to do this, in Jesus name. Amen.

—Abraham Damilola Arigi

Romans 6:1-2 (KJV) What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?

Sin attracts destruction against us; grace repels this destruction which is the rightful consequence for sin. The more there is sin, the more there is grace needed to repel the consequence. This (grace) is all because of God’s great love for us. He loves us who don’t deserve His love. How do we respond to this great love? We respond by loving God with all our hearts.

If a man is drowning in the middle of the ocean and someone he doesn’t know comes with a boat to rescue him, that person has saved his life. If the man jumps back into the ocean because he knows there is now a boat, he is an unreasonable man. The sharks may be waiting the next time he jumps into the water.

A man who has been saved by grace but later continues to sin because he knows there is grace is an unreasonable man. He is playing with danger.

Sin is not just disobedience against God, if it was, God would simply have forgiven us and Jesus wouldn’t have to die. Sin is a transgression of the law of spiritual life; it is a toxic spiritual force that has to be atoned for (cleansed). That is why Jesus needed to come and die to atone for our sins. Your salvation is free but it is not cheap; it cost God His only begotten son.

Go into today determined to Love God more than ever before. This love will keep you from sin.

Prayer: Ask the Lord to open your eyes to see the depths of His love for you.Ask for more grace to live above sin.—Abraham Damilola Arigi

Romans 6:1(KJV) What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?

In order to properly understand this Bible verse we would need to examine a verse in the previous chapter.

Romans 5:20 (NET) but where sin increased, grace multiplied all the more. What does this mean?

The first time grace was mentioned in the Bible was in Genesis 6:8. Understanding the context in which it was mentioned will help us.

In Genesis 6, there was great corruption and wickedness on the earth. This was the product of sin, and it repented God that He created Humankind. The Lord said “I will wipe humankind, whom I have created, from the face of the earth – everything from humankind to animals… ”

You must understand that when God says a thing, it has become law in the realms of creation. There was now a new order, humankind was to be destroyed on the earth because of iniquity. BUT Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.

The reason why Noah and his household were spared was because of grace. We are all descendants of Noah. The reason why humankind keeps sinning and does not experience total destruction is because this grace keeps increasing to accommodate for the sins. Just think of grace for a moment as a quantitative measure, if Noah and his household needed five measures, how many measures do you think the entire humankind needs today?

So as sin increased, grace also had to be multiplied on the earth so as to keep humankind from destruction. This is the connection between sin and grace… to be continued.

Go into today remembering that the grace of God is the reason why you are still alive and born again.

Thank the Lord for making you a partaker of His grace.—Abraham Damilola Arigi

2 Corinthians 6:14 (KJV) Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

After Monica explained to her fiancé that she was still an unbeliever when she had the abortion Cynthia told him about, she apologized and explained to him that the only reason Cynthia knew about this was that she sought Cynthia’s counsel on how best to tell him about her shameful past.

When Cynthia heard that Monica and Gerald were still going ahead with their wedding as planned, she felt humiliated. She later decided to go to Monica and apologize for what she had done. Monica told her that she had already forgiven her.

Even though Monica forgave Cynthia, she was wise enough to discontinue her friendship with Cynthia. Cynthia was not born again and Monica always knew this. Even if she didn’t know this before, she now knew.

One of the wisest things you can do for yourself is to obey all God’s precepts; they will protect you from unnecessary trouble.

Being nice and friendly with unbelievers is different from letting an unbeliever be your friend and confidant. Doing this is simply foolishness because the unbeliever will end up hurting you, either spiritually or physically; intentionally or unintentionally. An unbeliever you are yoked with will infect you with his unbelief, whether you like it or not. The worst thing that can happen to a Christian is unbelief; when he loses his faith.

Go into today asking the Lord to send you true friends that believe in Him. Determine today to wisely discontinue close friendship with those who do not truly believe in Jesus.

Prayer: Thank God for giving you life; thank Him for relationships.

Ask for the wisdom to make the right friendships.—Abraham Damilola Arigi

Job 23:12[KJV] Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.

Some people who read yesterday’s Devotional were offended by it, and I can understand why. They did not understand how someone like Monica will still have a real relationship with the Lord after what she had done. The truth is, what Monica did when she was an unbeliever was a horrible thing, abortion is actually murder. But she repented and God forgave her. God does not judge people for their past mistakes they have repented of, He judges them based on the way they respond to His word.

Now let’s talk about the way people respond to God’s word. I have come to learn that the way to know if someone is truly born again is not by what church they attend or the things they say, even though these are important, they can be faked and there are many morally sound unsaved people. The way people respond to God’s word is the way to know whether or not they are born again. Anyone who has no regard for the word of God has no regard for God and does not really believe in God. Such a person cannot bring forth the fruits of righteousness because the transformation that produces such fruit comes by God’s word. Jesus purges us by His word so that we may be fruitful (see John 15:3). The only way a person can truly walk above sin is by letting God’s word dominate his heart (see Psalm 119:11).

Go into today determining to regard God’s word above your daily bread.

Prayer: Thank the Lord for sending His word to transform you into His nature.

Ask the Lord to empower you to walk in the fullness of His will for your life.—Abraham Damilola Arigi

Matthew 6:15 (NET) But if you do not forgive others, your Father will not forgive you your sins.

Cynthia betrayed and offended Monica in a very bad way. She told Monica’s fiance that Monica once had an abortion. This was something that Monica was still trying to find words with which to tell him, and she shared this burden with Cynthia her best friend. Monica actually had an abortion many years ago when she was still an unbeliever. but now she was saved and had repented of such ways.

Monica now found it impossible to forgive Cynthia. But she didn’t know that this was exactly what the enemy of her soul wanted.

When Monica needed help, she cried to the Lord as usual, but the heavens appeared to be closed against her. She was worried and kept asking the Lord why His presence was no longer in her life like before. She found today’s Bible verse and received deliverance.

Jesus reveals to us that our heavenly father forgives our trespasses. The only reason God will not forgive us is if we refuse to forgive others who have trespassed against us. Anyone who refuses to forgive others is only showing that he does not appreciate and accept what God has done for him in forgiving him for his many sins. He is also proving to the heavens that he does not truly possess the nature of God.

As you go into today, remember that choosing to forgive is choosing to walk in the Spirit; it is in keeping with the nature of God.

Prayer:Ask the Lord for grace to forgive those who have offended you.

Ask the Lord to empower you to be more like Him every day and in every way. Amen. You’re not safe if you’re not saved. Want to be saved? Click here: https://streamglobe.org/33-2/—Abraham Damilola Arigi

Psalm 92:12 (AMP) The [uncompromisingly] righteous shall flourish like the palm tree [be long-lived, stately, upright, useful, and fruitful]; they shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon [majestic, stable, durable, and incorruptible].

The palm tree is a very useful and strong tree; one very important thing about the palm tree is that it is evergreen. It does not wither when all other plants around it wither.

The word God has for you today is that you will flourish like the palm tree. When others say there is a casting down, you will say there is a lifting up. Your growth will never end and you shall be incorruptible.

A palm tree does not struggle to grow; all that is needed is for it to remain planted in the right place.

Your growth and prosperity in life shall not be a function of struggle but a function of grace. All you need to do is to make sure you remain planted in the Lord.

As you go into this day, make up your mind to focus more on abiding in Christ and doing His will- this is the secret to true success. When you do this, you will notice that the Lord will take care of every aspect of your life.

Prayer: thank the Lord for bringing you into this day. Thank the Lord for the grace that makes you a Christian. Ask the Lord to help you abide in Him all through the year. Amen.—Abraham Damilola Arigi
