Topic: Don’t Jump The Precipice [DCLM Daily Manna 27 November 2018 Daily Devotional by Pastor William Folorunso Kumuyi]

Text: Mark 10:1-12 (KJV)

Key Verse: “And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her” (Mark 10:11).

MESSAGE:

The divorce dilemma is a growing social scourge that must be carefully avoided by everyone. The pangs and pains trailing failed marriages make it imperative for all sections of the social strata to understand the root of this plague and identify effective ways of preventing its occurrence. Jesus, the great Teacher and Lord of all, has the panacea to this social problem.

His recommendation is, “What therefore God hath joined together, let no man put asunder” (Mark 10:9). Marital relationship between two male and female adults, with parental consent, conducted based on any religious or cultural belief, are binding and indissoluble by scriptural standards.

Divorce dilemma is such a precipice that no person should contemplate of jumping from. It hurts deeply and could hurt eternally, as no adulterer or adulteress, which a divorce situation occasions, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

Every person associated with a failed marriage – couples, children, relations of partners, friends and well-wishers of the couples – feels the pain. The society is not spared because the products of crashed marriage are released into it with known heart and head aches they cause.

Thanks to God, who has provided ways of escape from marital malaise. How? Be a believer in Jesus Christ, who is the Author of life and Giver of all good gifts. Obey and follow His teaching on all aspects of life, including marriage and enjoy His fellowship by remaining wisely connected to Him daily. God is faithful who will always bless and heal your marriage in whatever area it aches. Amen!

Thought For The Day: Marriage is for life and never a part-time business.

Topic: No Prison Can Hold You Down [Seeds of Destiny 27 November 2018 Devotional]

Scripture: If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed. John 8:36

Thought For The Day: The power of God has the capacity to loose all bands and chains.

Previously, we saw that the Power of God has the capacity to shake and destroy the foundation of a prison and force open the prison doors.

Now, it is also important to know that the power of God has the capacity to loose all bands and chains (Acts 16:26). If the prison door is opened but the prisoner’s chain is still on him, then freedom is not complete. Some people almost shared a testimony but it got aborted. This time around the testimony must happen because the bands must be loosed.

When someone in prison receives a presidential pardon, he is removed from the prison, the bad record is deleted, and his status as a prisoner changed.

Now, we, as God’s children received the Presidential pardon when God, the President of all presidents sent His only begotten Son to come and die for us and drop all charges against us on the Cross of Calvary. Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law being made a curse for us (Galatians 3:13); He took our place. We were justified (Romans 3:24; 5:9); the word justified is Just-As-If-I’d Never Done It. So, the devil does not have anything to use against you; no prison can hold you down.

I see prison doors open and you are coming out of every form of prison, in Jesus’ Name.

Remember this: The power of God has the capacity to loose all bands and chains.

Assignments:
1. Search the scripture and locate light that confirms that your liberty in life was guaranteed.
2. Stand firm on the light and make demands on your freedom from every form of prison.
3. Live a life void of offence towards God and man.

Prayer: Lord, thank You for granting me freedom two thousand years ago. By the Blood of Jesus, I command every prison trying to confine me to be scattered. I am free in Jesus’ Name.

Topic: Realities of Life [Billy Graham Devotional 27 November 2018 ]

Casting down imaginations . . . and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ. — 2 Corinthians 10:5

Thousands of people have made plans to escape from the realities of life. A new word has come into common usage the last few years. That word is “escapism.” The dictionary defines it as “a retreat from reality into an imaginary world.” The escape of imagination. Solomon spoke of the unregenerate heart as one which is inclined to excessive fantasy. The dream world Satan promotes always ends with disillusionment. Thousands of people live in an unreal dream world, while shirking their responsibilities toward their families and toward God. The Bible teaches that with Christ in your heart, you can face the realities of life. Even though they are hard, the grace of God will give you greater joy and pleasure than any dream world to which you try to escape.

Prayer for the day: Lord, so often my thoughts make a wasteland of what You are wanting to plant there. This day let every one of them be captive to Your leading.
