DAY 1: THE PROMISES OF GOD

 30 DAYS DEVOTIONALS WITH PREACHER SAM

THE RHEMA WORD FOR TODAY





SEPTEMBER 1, 2022.

TOPIC: THE PROMISES OF GOD

 BIBLE READING: ACTS 1:1-14

VERSE FOR MEDITATION: 2 CORINTHIANS 1:20 NKJV

For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us.


Before Jesus ascended up to heaven, He taught the apostles the things pertaining to the kingdom of God, and this teaching is what made up the apostles’ doctrine (Acts 2:42). We do not know what this apostles’ doctrine is, but we understand from the writings of the apostles what this doctrine is and the things Jesus taught them that pertained to the kingdom of God.

Doctrine simply means teaching. So the apostles’ doctrine, simply means the apostles’ teaching. Apostle Paul told Timothy, “The things that you have heard from me among many witnesses commit these to faithful men who will be able to teach other” (2 Tim. 2:2). These witnesses were the ones who taught the apostles’ doctrine (Acts 1:3, 8), so everything you read in the epistles are the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.

Apostle Peter shared one of the things that pertains to the kingdom of God, the divine power of God which has given us the precious promises of God so that we can partake in His divine nature (2 Pet. 1:3-5). These promises are in the Promise of the Father (Acts 1:4), just as Apostle Peter said on the day of Pentecost in Acts 2, “the gift of the Holy Spirit” (vs. 38), and Apostle Paul said, “spiritual gifts” (1 Cor. 12:1), which means the Holy Spirit is the gift of all spiritual gifts. Without the gift of the Holy Spirit, there is no manifestation of the gifts of the Spirit (1 Cor. 12:4-7).

So all the promises of God are in the person of the Holy Spirit, and once you have the Holy Spirit, you have the power to manifest all the precious promises of God which will make you a partaker of God’s divine nature.


PRAYER:

DEAR HEAVENLY FATHER, I CONFESS AND I FORSAKE MY WICKED WAYS, I ACCEPT YOUR GIFT OF ETERNAL LIFE, AND THE GIFT OF YOUR PROMISED HOLY SPIRIT. THANK YOU FATHER, FOR I AM BORN AGAIN. IN JESUS’ NAME I HAVE PRAYED. AMEN!


DECLARATION:

I HAVE THE PROMISE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, THEREFORE I MANIFEST THE PROMISES OF GOD.

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
