Topic: The Lord Is Your Deliverer [Saturday December 16, 2017]

Scripture: Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. Psalms 91:3

Thought For The Day: God did not call us to kill us. He did not save us to slay us; He called us to keep us.

It is confirmed that we are in a generation with satanic wickedness in epidemic proportions. Selfishness, hatefulness and loveless-ness have become the order of the day in our world. There is the degeneration of human sympathy and the escalation of cruelty.

Notwithstanding the onslaughts of wicked forces, I have bad news for the devil and good news for the children of God. That is the fact that we serve a God who is eternally committed to the deliverance of His people and the decapitation of satan and his agents trying to ravage this generation. God is committed to shielding His people from the onslaughts of the devil.

The deliverance power of God was evident in the life of Paul and Silas when they were thrown into the prison for preaching the Gospel and sentenced to death the following day. God by His supernatural Power and His commitment to delivering His own, brought them out of prison mysteriously unhurt (Acts 16:23-26).

Beloved, God did not call us to kill us. He did not save us to slay us; He called us to keep us. You cannot be serving God and be serving afflictions at the same time; no! It is abominable to redemption to live in afflictions and miseries as a redeemed child of God.

Today, by the mantle of God on my life, I prophesy the termination of every satanic disease or affliction inflicted on your life – be it bodily affliction, mental affliction, poverty, stagnation, etc. The Power of God delivers you now, in Jesus’ Name.

Remember This: God did not call us to kill us. He did not save us to slay us; He called us to keep us.

Assignments:

1. Be doggedly committed to God in service and worship because God is committed to delivering the committed

2. Fear not! Let your faith and confidence in the deliverance Power of God be intact despite what the enemy may do against your life.

Prayer: LORD, I receive the grace to be committed to Your service. I connect to Your Deliverance Power upon my life, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.

Topic: Simply Unforgivable — Saturday December 16, 2017.

Text: Matthew 12:22-37

Key Verse: “Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men” (Matthew 12:31).

God’s nature is such that He is above reproach even by those who hate Him when He reprimands. This is because He does everything in love; even when He punishes, He does so in love, and every punishment by the Lord is preceded by a series of warnings. Jesus had performed a spectacular miracle which the Pharisees attributed to the power of Beelzebub, the prince of demons.

Witnesses of this miracle had been amazed and wondered aloud ‘is not this the Son of David? But the religious leaders of the day attributed the spectacular work to demons. Jesus reading their thoughts, reprimanded their stand: “And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand?” (verse 26). God of miracles is still working through His ministers, to whom He said: “And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover” (Mark 16:17,18).

As we evangelize the unconverted, the power to heal and deliver the oppressed is the weapon the believer has against Satan’s onslaught. Are you one of those who believe divine healing and miracles ended with the apostolic age? Please, read your Bible again and you will discover the enormous power Christ has bestowed on believers today as we engage in the Great Commission. You will then realize that only Jesus Christ has the power to heal the soul and the body.

Thought for the day: Jesus the same yesterday, today and forever.
