-

 THE RHEMA WORD FOR TODAY

(A DAILY DEVOTIONAL WITH PREACHER SAM)

 


TOPIC: UNDERSTANDING THE MERCIES OF GOD I- THE LOVE DIMENSION

DATE: 2 SEPTEMBER, 2021

BIBLE READING: EPHESIANS 3:14-21

VERSE FOR MEDITATION: EPHESIANS 3:19 ERV

Christ’s love is greater than anyone can ever know, but I pray that you will be able to know that love. Then you can be filled with everything God has for you.

 

The mercy of God is an act of God’s benevolence towards man in order that he might gain access into the heart of God where His compassion and the riches of His love dwells.

These riches of His love is in all dimensions but beyond measures, that is why it surpasses all knowledge. The width of His love explains the outstretched arm of Father to embrace you into His bosom, irrespective of who you are or what you have done, the love dimension of His mercy is ever ready to receive you.

The length of His love explains how far God can go to bring you closer to Himself, and how far He can take you to bask in His benevolence. The length of His love reveals how He proved His love towards us while we were yet enemies of Him, by allowing His only begotten Son to die for the remission of our sins, so that through that sacrifice, we might be forgiven and bask in His benevolence. (Ref. Rom. 5:8-11; Jn. 3:16, Matt. 26:28).

The depth of His love explains the kind of intimacy, partnership and fellowship He wants to have with us. God is so much interest in relationships.

And the height of His love explains His interest in lifting us up and blessing us exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think. These are the dimensions of the riches of His love that is beyond measures and surpasses all knowledge; this love of God cannot be fully understood.

 

PRAYER: My Daddy, words will fail me to thank You enough for Your love toward me, it is for this cause that I am bowing my knees. Thank You for Your love! Amen!

 

DECLARATION: BECAUSE THE FATHER LOVES ME, I BASK IN HIS BENEVOLENCE.

I John 5:4-5 [4]For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith. [5]Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God? The Certainty of God’s Witness. Our last year theme—our subject of discussion for last year was “WALKING IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF CHRIST.” And we shared some lovely articles that correlate with that theme. Some of these were: WHAT IT MEANS TO BE BORN AGAIN?  THE EXEGESIS OF JOHN 3:16 I AM A GOOD MAN , etc. This year, we shall share articles that will correlate with our theme, by God's grace.

2024: THE YEAR OF ESTABLISHMENT

Hosea‬ ‭2:23‬ ‭GNB I will establish my people in the land and make them prosper. I will show love to those who were called “Unloved”, and to those who were called “Not-my-People” I will say, “You are my people,” and they will answer, “You are our God.” The Lord is about to prosper us in all areas of our life, but He must first establish us in Him. It is until we're established in Him, our prosperity will have no root to last long. The Lord has said to us, “I will establish you.” Another area of God's establishment this year is in the area of His love. Ephesians 3:17 NIV So that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love. The Lord has said to us, “I will uproot every plant that I have not planted. And get you rooted and established in My love.” (Matt. 15:13; Eph. 3:17). Falsehood will die as Truth will thrive. Every wind of doctrine will vanish, because the full knowledge of Christ will be established.  Strange practi

Day 28: THE CHASTISEMENT OF THE LORD

 PHRONESIS DEVOTIONAL 30 DAYS DEVOTIONAL WITH PREACHER SAM September 28, 2023. Topic: THE CHASTISEMENT OF THE LORD Bible Reading: Hebrews 12:1-11 Verse for Meditation: Hebrews 12:6 NKJV For whom the LORD loves He chastens, and scourges every son whom He receives. Questions related to the chastisement of the Lord have been quite difficult to answer because many of our experiences have led to a subjective view about God and His Word. I was once like that until I started to see God and His Word through the lens of Christ and a proper interpretation of the Scripture. To interpret the Scripture properly, you must first read the text in context, then look out for the mode of communication used (the language used, and if it was used figuratively, check out for the figurative expression and meaning), and the culture (also the time). Then finally pass it through the lens of Christ, because the Scripture is about Him. So the questions, “do my difficult circumstances indicate that God is mad at m
