THE RHEMA WORD FOR TODAY (A DAILY DEVOTIONAL WITH PREACHER SAM) TOPIC: BURNING THE BRIDGES DATE: 19 SEPTEMBER, 2019 BIBLE READING: 1 KINGS 19:19-21 MEDITATION/MEMORY VERSE: LUKE 9:23 (AMP) And He was saying to them all, “If anyone wishes to follow Me [as My disciple], he must deny himself [set aside selfish interests], and take up his cross daily [expressing a willingness to endure whatever may come] and follow Me [believing in Me, conforming to My example in living and, if need be, suffering or perhaps dying because of faith in Me]. To ‘burn the bridges,’ means to cut off every form of connection or relationship with someone or something. That is, it is a sign of saying, ‘NO GOING BACK,’ ‘NO ALTERNATIVE PLAN.’ When Elijah casted his mantle upon Elisha, the son of Shaphat, the prophetic power came upon him. By that single act, Elijah gave him a new identity and set him apart for a prophetic mission. Earlier in verse 16 from 1st Kings 19, God had told to anoint Elisha as a ...

  THE RHEMA WORD FOR TODAY (A DAILY DEVOTIONAL WITH PREACHER SAM)   TOPIC: GOD CHOSE ESTHER DATE: 25 SEPTEMBER, 2020 BIBLE READING: ESTHER 2 MEDITATION/MEMORY VERSE: MATTHEW 22:14 (AMP) For many are called (invited, summoned), but few are chosen.   Our verse for meditation agrees to the event that we just read; many were called, invited and summoned, but only Esther was chosen in place of Queen Vashti. This can be likened to the events in Song of Solomon; how King Solomon chose a foreigner of the land of Israel, as his wife (SOS 6:8-9; 1:9). Our Bible reading says, ‘Esther, along with other young women.’ (Esth. 2:8), which may be the writer of the book of Esther kept her nationality a secret. A foreigner of the land of Persia was chosen. Also, just like the book of Song of Solomon, there is no mention of the name of God; but we can see the hand of god, how God worked it out for Esther to be the Queen, ‘He controls the course of world event; he removes ...

DAY 24: WEALTH AND RICHES

 PHRONESIS DEVOTIONAL 30 DAYS DEVOTIONAL WITH PREACHER SAM September 24, 2023. Topic: WEALTH AND RICHES Bible Reading: 1 Timothy 6:3-11, 17-19 Verse for Meditation: Psalms 112:3 NKJV Wealth and riches will be in his house, and his righteousness endures forever. We don’t give so that we can be blessed, because we are already blessed (Eph. 1:3). In fact when we give, it shows that we are more blessed (Acts 20:35), but definitely not more than God; our giving to God is a way of worship. We don’t give so that we can have more, because we already have all things in Christ (1Cor. 3:21; 2Pet. 1:3). We give because we love God! The Bible says that Abel gave a more acceptable gift than Cain by faith (Heb. 11:4), so our giving is an expression of our faith. And the Bible also says that God rewards the faithful (Heb. 11:6). So there’s always a reward for giving out of love and faith (For example in Proverbs 3:9-10). But our eyes are not on the rewards but on the rewarder; this is what it mean...
