Joyce Meyer’s Daily 7 May 2018 Devotional — Be Careful What You Think

Topic: Be Careful What You Think [Joyce Meyer’s Devotional Thursday May 7, 2018]

To the Lord our God belong mercy and lovingkindness and forgiveness…. — Daniel 9:9

In the early days of computers, they used to say, “Garbage in, garbage out.” That was a way of explaining that the computer only worked with the data put into the machine. If we wanted different results, we needed to put in different information.

With computers, most people have no trouble grasping that concept, but when it comes to their minds, they don’t seem to get it. Or perhaps they don’t want to get it. So many things demand their attention and beg for their focus. They’re not just sinful things. The apostle Paul said that although everything was lawful for him, not everything was helpful (see 1 Corinthians 6:12).

If you are going to win the battle of the mind and defeat your enemy, where you focus your attention is crucial. The more you meditate on God’s Word, the stronger you’ll become and the more easily you’ll win the victories.

Too many Christians don’t realize the difference between meditating on the Bible and reading the Bible. They like to think that whenever they read God’s Word, they’re absorbing the deep things of God. Too often people will read a chapter of the Bible, and when they get to the last verse, they have little idea of what they’ve read. Those who meditate on God’s Word are those who think—and think seriously—about what they’re reading.

They may not put it in these words, but they are saying, “God, speak to me. Teach me. As I ponder Your Word, reveal its depth to me.”

Psalm 1 begins by defining the person who is blessed, and then points out the right actions of that person. The psalmist wrote that those who meditate—and do it day and night—are like productive trees…and everything they do shall prosper.

The psalmist made it quite clear that meditating on and thinking about God’s Word brings results. As you ponder who God is and what He’s saying to you, you’ll grow. It’s really that simple. Another way to put it is to say that whatever you focus on, you become. If you read about and allow your mind to focus on God’s love and power, that’s what operates in you.

The apostle Paul says it beautifully in Philippians 4:8: …whatever is true, whatever is honorable and worthy of respect, whatever is right and confirmed by God’s word, whatever is pure and wholesome, whatever is lovely and brings peace, whatever is admirable and of good repute; if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think continually on these things [center your mind on them, and implant them in your heart].

It’s sad, but most Christians don’t put much effort into their study of the Word. They go to hear others teach and preach, and they may listen to sermons online and read the Bible occasionally, but they’re not dedicated to making God’s Word a major part of their lives.

Be careful what you think about. The more you think about good things, the better your life will seem. The more you think about Jesus Christ and the principles He taught, the more you become like Jesus and the stronger you grow. And as you grow, you win the battle for your mind.

Prayer Starter: Lord God, help me think about the things that honor You. Fill my life with a hunger for more of You and Your Word so that in everything I may prosper. I ask this through Jesus Christ, Amen.

David Oyedepo: Commanding exploits through divine wisdom!

Topic: Commanding exploits through divine wisdom!

Welcome to a new month of enviable testimonies and liftings! All through this month, we shall explore the force of divine wisdom which, I believe, shall impact on every area of our lives. It will also grant us an unusual access into the deep things of God; thereby, empowering us into next- levels of exploits after the order of Christ and bringing about supernatural turnarounds in our lives. Therefore, I want you to get set for an impartation of supernatural wisdom via the teachings of this month.

We discover from scriptures that exploits answer largely to the operations and manifestations of divine wisdom. By ‘exploits’, we mean extraordinary accomplishments. It connotes breaking new grounds, and setting new records. It implies out of this world order of accomplishments and outstanding successes with strange impacts. As it is written: But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him (1 Corinthians 2:9).

However, while exploit is God’s agenda for the redeemed, it takes wisdom to experience it. In other words, divine wisdom is the bedrock of exploits and everything answers to its operations and manifestations. The Scripture says: Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding (Proverbs 4:7). Obviously, without divine wisdom at work, exploits will remain an uphill task. Thus, we cannot disregard divine wisdom and experience exploits.

What, then, is Divine Wisdom?

Divine wisdom is the wisdom from above. It is superior to all other kinds of wisdom, and it generates mighty and inexplicable works. Divine wisdom is knowing the right thing to do from scriptures. Also, it is walking in the light of God’s Word as revealed from the scriptures. Furthermore, it is thinking, speaking and working the Word. Interestingly, this wisdom is peaceable, ‘track-able’ pure, easily entreated, full of good fruits, without partiality and hypocrisy. Thus, it delivers the same way and at the same rate to anyone who engages it; there is no racial discrimination or partiality associated with it (John 3:31; Romans 2:11). We must understand that God has reserved the strongest wave of divine wisdom for the end-time Church which is going to be the mystery behind their exploits (Ephesians 3:8-11).

Remember, divine wisdom is not strange to us as it has been since the time of old and individuals who operated by it experienced supernatural liftings and glory. There are diverse scriptural examples of individuals who traded divine wisdom and emerged men of exploits and conquest as exemplified in the following:

Joseph: Through divine wisdom, Joseph interpreted Pharaoh’s dream and provided solution to the negative impact of the famine that was about to hit the land of Egypt. The Bible records: Thereafter, pharaoh said unto Joseph, Forasmuch as God hath shewed thee all this, there is none so discreet and wise as thou art…(Genesis 41:39-40).

Solomon: By divine wisdom, Solomon wrote 1005 songs and 3000 proverbs. Furthermore, the queen of Sheba heard of his fame and she came to see Solomon’s riches and test the depth of his wisdom. Subsequently, she was very impressed with Solomon’s wisdom and prosperity that she praise God for such a wise King (1 Kings 4:32).

Daniel: Among others, the display of the wisdom from above at work in Daniel empowered him to interpret the King’s dream which hitherto was too difficult for the magicians to do. This amazed king Nebuchadnezzar to the point that he… made Daniel a great man, and gave him many great gifts, and made him ruler over the whole province of Babylon, and chief of the governors over all the wise men of Babylon( Daniel 2:48 , 1:20)

Like I have always said, the secret of men are in their stories. It is impossible to find any story on exploits that is not traced to divine wisdom. We cannot have this kind of wisdom and not do exploit in life, which will put us ahead of others just like it did in the lives of the Patriarchs. If the Patriarchs engaged it and turned them to men of exploits, I believed it is worth emulating. Therefore, as you do, I see you moving unto ‘next levels’ of exploits after the order of Christ, In Jesus’ name! Welcome to your realm of unlimited possibilities! Remain ever blessed!

Nevertheless to gain access to this wisdom, you need to be born-again. Are you born again? If you are not, this is an opportunity to do so. Simply say the following prayer: Lord Jesus, I come to You today. I am a sinner. Forgive me my sins. Cleanse me with Your precious Blood. Deliver me from sin and satan to serve the Living God. Today, I accept You as my Lord and Saviour. Thank You Jesus for saving me! Now I know I am born again!”

I know this teaching has blessed you. Write and share your testimony with me through: Faith Tabernacle, Canaanland, Ota, P.M.B. 21688, Ikeja, Lagos, Nigeria; or call 01-4548070, 01-4548280; or E-mail: [email protected]; Face book: www.facebook.com/davidoyedepoministries/; Twitter: @DavidOyedepoMin

Andrew Wommack’s Devotional 7 May 2018 – Word Power

Topic: Word Power [Andrew Wommack Monday May 7, 2018]

Matthew 14:29, “And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.”

This one word “come” was spoken by the one who made all things (Jn. 1:3) and it had just as much power in it as the words that were spoken at creation. This is where the power came from for Peter to walk on the water. Likewise, any word spoken to us by God carries in itself the anointing and power it takes to fulfill that word, if we will release it by believing it and acting on it.

We need to not only know God’s power, but the greatness of God’s power, and then the exceeding greatness of God’s power. This exceeding greatness of God’s power is towards us. That means that it is for us and our benefit. Some people get glimpses of God’s power, but very few have the revelation that it is for us and at our disposal. It doesn’t do us any good to believe that God has power if we don’t believe that it will work for us. This great power of God is effectual only for those who believe. We must believe to receive, or if we doubt, we do without.

Despite all the criticism that might be leveled at Peter in this instance, he did walk on the water. There were eleven other disciples in the boat and although they clearly saw Jesus and Peter walking on the water, they still did not participate. One of the important steps in receiving a miracle from God is to leave the security of your natural resources (get out of your boat) and put yourself in the position where there has to be a miracle from God to hold you up. God is no respecter of persons (Rom. 2:11). Any of the disciples could have walked on the water, if they would have asked and gotten out of the boat.

TREM Devotional 7 May 2018 by Dr. Mike Okonkwo – Be Committed To The Wellbeing Of Others

Topic: Be Committed To The Wellbeing Of Others [TREM Devotional Monday May 7, 2018]

“Then departed Barnabas to Tarsus, for to seek Saul” Acts 11:25

When Paul left for Tarsus, it looked as if he had gone into a sea of forgetfulness, no one remembered him. But Barnabas departed to Tarsus to look for Paul. As a group leader, when a member of your group has not been to church two or three times; are you concerned? God expects us to be our brother’s keeper. That is why we are subdivided into cells and groups for ease of fellowship. Everyone is an extension of the Pastor. You belong to the same cell or group; therefore, you should notice who is not in church and then put a call across to the person.

The church is all about people. We are all members of the same body – everyone should look after the other person. The difference between coming to church and watching a telecast is fellowship. Do not get too busy to look out for other people in the church. No matter how big the church is, make it a point of duty to connect with at least one new person every Sunday. Imagine if you connect to one person a week, within a year, your life would have positively impacted 52 people and by extension 52 families. Stop and ask yourself, since the beginning of this year to date, who have you affected? Who is in the church today because you looked out for him or her?

Barnabas went to Tarsus to look for Paul and brought him back. Today you can hardly preach without quoting Paul because somebody picked him up and believed in him. Who are you picking up in church? It’s not difficult for a church to be filled, it only takes everyone who attends that church most especially leaders to make a quality decision that I must bring one person to church and establish that person. You will discover that in few years the church will be filled. If others will not, you can decide to be different.

Billy Graham Devotional 7 May 2018 – Truth Brings Freedom

Topic: Truth Brings Freedom [Billy Graham’s Devotional Monday May 7, 2018]

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

The mark of a true Christian is found in his personal relationship to the Person of Jesus Christ. Christianity is Christ. Christ is Christianity. I speak reverently when I say that Jesus is more than His ideas. All that He said was true, but without Him even the truth would have been powerless. Men know the power of truth, and truth is that which sets men free. Jesus said, “I am the truth.”

Prayer for the day: Thank You, Jesus, for the shackles that have been broken in my life!

Kenneth & Gloria Copeland Devotional 7 May 2018 – The Grace of Giving

Topic: The Grace of Giving [Kenneth & Gloria Copeland, Monday May 7, 2018]

Therefore, as ye abound in every thing, in faith, and utterance, and knowledge, and in all diligence, and in your love to us, see that ye abound in this grace also. – 2 Corinthians 8:7

How do you give to the Lord?

Do you just drop some money in the plate at church without much thought? Or do you just write a check to God at the first of every month and pay Him like you pay all your other bills?

You need to think about that because how you give is a matter of deep concern to God. He’s particular about how offerings are given. He won’t receive just any old thing however you feel like giving it.

In Malachi, for example, God refused to receive Israel’s offerings. They were bringing Him their defective animals, their blind calves and the injured ones they couldn’t do anything else with—and God said it offended Him. He told them, “You don’t have any reverence or honor for Me, and I’m not going to accept your offering.”

That kind of thing didn’t die out after the book of Malachi. Many today don’t have any reverence for God at offering time. People wait for the preacher to beat them over the head until they feel so guilty they have to reach down in their pocketbooks and get some money out.

But I want you to know, that’s offensive to God. In fact, He spoke directly to a friend of mine about it. The statement He made to her so impressed me, I wrote it down word for word.

It grieves Me when the Church takes offerings, He told her. I said to worship Me. Don’t take from the people, but let them bring their gifts and worship Me. Then they will see the fruits of their giving.

If you and I want God to be pleased with our offerings, we’re going to have to do what the Apostle Paul wrote about in 2 Corinthians 8:7. We’re going to have to learn to “excel in this grace of giving” (New International Version). We’re going to have to quit being casual about it and to learn to give with faith and reverence in worship.

Next time the offering plate is passed, don’t just drop your gift carelessly in the plate. Get serious. Determine to obey God. Worship Him with your money and be thankful. He’ll do more than simply receive it, He’ll open the windows of blessing for you.

Our Daily Bread (ODB) Devotional 7 May 2018 – The Fingerprint of God

Topic: The Fingerprint of God [Our Daily Bread 7 Monday May, 2018]

Read: Ephesians 2:1–10, Bible in a Year: 2 Kings 1–3; Luke 24:1–35

For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesians 2:10

Lygon Stevens loved to climb mountains with her brother Nick. They were experienced climbers and both had summited Mt. McKinley (Denali), the highest point in North America. Then, in January 2008, they were swept off a Colorado mountain by an avalanche, injuring Nick and killing twenty-year-old Lygon. When Nick later discovered his sister’s journal in one of her satchels, he was deeply comforted by its contents. It was filled with reflections, prayers, and praise to God as seen in this entry: “I am a work of art, signed by God. But He’s not done; in fact, He has just begun. . . . I have on me the fingerprint of God. Never will there ever be another person like me. . . . I have a job to do in this life that no other can do.”

Although Lygon is no longer physically present on earth, through the legacy of her life and her journal she inspires and challenges those she left behind.

Because we are made in God’s image (Genesis 1:26), each person is a “work of art, signed by God.” As the apostle Paul says, “We are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do” (Ephesians 2:10).

Praise God that He uses each of us, in His own time and way, to help others.

Prayer: How would You like to use me, Lord? I am open and willing.

Each person is a unique expression of God’s loving design.

Insight:

Genesis 1:26–27 says we were created in God’s image. Similarly, Genesis 5:1 and James 3:9 tell us we were made in His “likeness.” What does it mean to be made in God’s image? We were created with characteristics that set us apart from other creatures. We have the capacity to reason, to make moral choices, and to be in relationship with others. We also have the capacity to do good works, and Jesus set the precedent: He “went around doing good” (Acts 10:38). Ephesians 2:10 tells us we were not only created “to do good works” but “God prepared in advance” the good works we would do. Our task is to stay near to God (Hebrews 10:22), be alert for opportunities, and rely on the Spirit for strength and help. Alyson Kieda

Seeds of Destiny 7 May 2018 by Pastor Paul Enenche: Releasing Your Past To Access Your Future

Topic: Releasing Your Past To Access Your Future [Seeds of Destiny Monday May 7, 2018]

Scripture: Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before. Philippians 3:13.

Thought For The Day: You cannot walk backwards into tomorrow.

Previously, we established that there are destiny capsules a person needs in order to have a healthy and buoyant destiny. Just as capsules boost one’s health in the physical, there are also spiritual destiny capsules that are needed for destiny fulfilment. When these capsules are taken, destiny fulfilment is guaranteed.

Now, one of these destiny capsules is the release of the past. If you cannot release the negative past, then you cannot access the positive future.

Beloved, dragging yesterday into today makes arrival in tomorrow impossible. This means, until you forgive and forget the errors, mistakes, missed opportunities, hurts, pains of the past, you cannot access your future. You must forfeit and forgo both the opportunities and failures of the past because you cannot hold on to the past and lay hold of the future at the same time. You cannot walk backwards into tomorrow.

The reason why you failed before is so you can rise and start again. You might have missed an opportunity in life; the good news is several other opportunities are coming your way. Someone might have hurt you but do not be bitter. The hurt is to make you better.

Beloved, God can turn things around for you and against the devil if only you can decide to let the past go. Receive the grace to drop the past so you can reach where God wants you to reach in Jesus’ Name.

Remember this: You cannot walk backwards into tomorrow.

Assignments:
1. Deliberately take a decision to forgive, forget and leave your past behind.
2. Decide to conceive a solid vision for your future.

Prayer: O Lord, I receive the grace to forget my past. Give me a solid vision for the future, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.

FOR FURTHER UNDERSTANDING, GET THIS MESSAGE: DESTINY CAPSULES.

Daily Bible Reading: 1 Samuel 1:1 to 2:21, John 5:1 to 23, Psalm 105:37 to 45, Proverbs 14:28 to 29.

Amazing Fact: The sun is the largest object in the solar system; its mass is 333,000 times that of the earth and you can fit 1.3 million earths into it.

Today In History: 07/05/1912 – On this day, the first airplane equipped with a machine gun flew over College Park, MD.

Quote: You can learn from your past in order to lead in the future; but you cannot live in the past and live in the future. Culled from 30 SECRETS TO THE TOP by Dr Paul Enenche.

Don’t Forget To Attend: The Healing and Deliverance Service tomorrow by 9am. Come with your friends and loved ones.

Teens Open Heavens 7 May 2018 – Whose Image Are You?

Topic: Whose Image Are You? [Teens Open Heavens 7, May 2018]

Memorise: For whom He did foreknow, He also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of His son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. Romans 8:29

Read: 2 Corinthians 3:18 (KJV)

18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

Bible In One Year: 1 Kings 14-15, John 1:1-28

MESSAGE:

When Jesus comes back to the earth, He will stand in the clouds of heaven and call to His own. When Jesus calls to His own, it is only those who are in His image that will hear His call. To be in His image means to have His Spirit within you, which is the Holy Spirit. Only those that are in the image of Christ will make Heaven because Romans 9:8 says that if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is none of His. The image of Christ also means the character of Christ. And as a child of God, do you behave like Christ? Are you quarrelsome and disobedient? Are you kind and gentle? Do you tell your friends and even stranger about Christ?
The kind of life you live will determine in whose abode you will end up. If you live a good life by the help of The Holy Spirit, you will end up with the Lord Jesus Christ. But if you live a life of sin, and follow the things of the world, you will end up with the devil. Every man’s final destination will be determined by whose image he/she is.

Prayer Point: Lord Jesus Christ, please let your image be formed fully in me and help me to be like You

Hymn 7

1. I am Thine 0 Lord, I have heard Thy voice,
And it told Thy love to me;
But I long to rise in the arms of faith
And be closer drawn to Thee.

Chorus
Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord
To the cross where Thou hast died;
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To Thy precious, bleeding side.

2. Consecrate me now to Thy service, Lord,
By the pow’r of grace divine;
Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope,
And my will be lost in Thine.

3. Oh, the pure delight of a single hour
That before Thy throne I spend,
When I kneel in prayer, and with Thee, my God
I commune as friend with friend!

4. There are depths of love that I cannot know
Till I cross the narrow sea;
There are heights of joy that I may not reach
Till I rest in peace with Thee.

DCLM Daily Manna 7 May, 2018 by Pastor Kumuyi – Why Worry?

Topic: Why Worry? [DCLM Daily Manna Monday May 7, 2018]

Text: Philippians 4:4-8 (KJV)

Key Verse: “Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God” (Philippians 4:6).

MESSAGE:

A man of God had a ministerial assignment in another city and had travel by air. A little after take off, the plane started making some disturbing noise. Soon, the announcement came that the plane was facing some severe weather challenges. The passengers expectedly began to panic as boxes, loads and hand luggage started falling from the cabin. But the man of God was reportedly calm throughout the experience. He did not display any iota of panic. As the turbulence persisted, the man of God’s seatmate asked him why he was not moved like everyone else. He quietly answered “Oh I had been talking to my Father in heaven about the situation. He has lovingly assured me that we would soon land safely.” And truly, soon after, the plane landed safely.

In the passage, Paul the apostle wrote from prison to admonish the Philippian believers on behavioral patterns that could stand them in better stead spiritually. “Be careful for nothing” was not an invitation to meet legitimate and genuine concerns or on matters relating to the material. It was that they should possess an unflagging confidence in God in whatever situation.

Believers should take all worrisome situations to God in prayer. After prayer, thanksgiving for the answer together with the witness of the abiding Spirit of God should keep us calm in trying moments.

While enjoying the peace of God, which the world cannot have, we must occupy our minds with the right and gracious thought. The nobility of our thoughts and meditation will endear us to our heavenly Father. To be free from anxiety, we must cultivate the attitude of absolute reliance and trust in God. Then will we enjoy the peace of God which passes all understanding. At no time must we succumb to sorrow and despair, even in the face of the challenges of life.

Thought For The Day: Confidence in God destroys anxiety and worry.
