Knowing God Devotional is an online daily devotional written by Andrews Baah Kwafo, the president of The Bible Daily Network.
God didn’t create you to do life alone. You may never know when you’ll need another person’s help. You may not know when another person will also need your help. Walk with wise people, and have at least one friend in Christ who’ll be with you every time of your life.
Did you know that purpose existed before marriage? Well, it’s plain in the scriptures. God created Adam first and gave him work to do. That is, to tend and keep the garden of Eden. Then three verses after, God got an idea to make a suitable helper for Adam, which is Eve.
Anchor your hope in the Lord, and live with eternity in mind. You’ll see that what many people struggle to get will be supplied to you without struggle.
Understanding why God has given you a body for the Holy Spirit to dwell in and becoming conscious of it is an even more powerful way to flee from sexual immorality. Why? Because you’ll learn how to control your body and use it purposefully.
Your personal intimacy with the Lord won’t grow by automation. You have a part to play. Put fire on your altar. Learn how to pray when nobody is around you. Learn how to study the Bible yourself. God never saved you to make you too dependent on the works of His servants. Connect to Him individually and daily.
When you pray when you’re in trouble, God’s peace will fill your heart and mind. You’ll see that even if your situation isn’t fully solved, you’ll be calm as God comes to your rescue.
According to Philippians 3:18, Paul said, “…For many walk… that they are enemies to the cross of Christ:”. He didn’t start by saying, “for many of you…”. That means every unbeliever is living as an enemy to the cross of Christ. Secondly, any Christian who intentionally misapplies grace by allowing sin to reign in his mortal body is also living as an enemy to the cross of Christ. Help them to come to Jesus.
God knows all that you have. He knows what you can do with what you have now that you may never believe it, even if He tells you. Don’t belittle yourself. Don’t stay relaxed with your past successes, as little or enormous as they are. They are gone and are in your life archives. It’s time to forget what’s behind you and reach forward to what’s ahead of you.
A question many Christians about relationships is, “can we date anybody we like?” Well, God knew this was coming. So He set the standard way back in Genesis. He made a suitable helper for Adam after realising that it’s not good for the man to be alone. But before that, something happened in Genesis 2:20. Read More…
You may have complained about how large your vision as a purpose-driven believer is. But I want you to cast your mind back to what God used to make the woman: a simple rib. That means that what God has given you to do big things is enough. If only you would see the largeness of production hidden in the small resources in your hands, you’ll do much.
Express your faith by accomplishing acts of God’s love with intentionality. For God is pleased by such deeds and will reward and give you more provisions to do it abundantly. Don’t make your faith dormant. Put it to work.
Don’t wait for God to address your situation spontaneously. He has given you a mouth to speak words without paying anybody. Use your mouth to pray. Remove the mountain by speaking words of faith.
