There are certain choices God made for you before bringing you into the world. You didn’t choose your parents, nationality (of birth), skin colour, and other fundamental background realities. So, instead of blaming God for such choices, accept them and live to pursue the fullness of your destiny in God.
Dear one, God has predestined you to be conformed to the image of His Son Jesus. Therefore, stop seeking approval or identity in the things of the world, both material and immaterial things. Things don’t work that way. Stick to Christ, keep fellowshipping with Him, and make sure that He’s the number one priority in all you do.
Because of Jesus’ atonement of sins for all humanity, each believer has become the righteousness of God. Therefore, before God, all your sins have been nailed to the cross, and you are cleansed from within. However, to see the full manifestation of your nature as God’s justified one, you need to keep hearing the gospel. But why? Because it is through the gospel that you’ll gradually get to know and understand who God has made you.
If people are disregarding you today, seeing your life as somehow worthless because of bad situations that have plagued you, I just want to tell you that don’t lose hope in God. He will restore you and beautify your life, so much so that people will start celebrating your lifting when the time comes.
We are all one people in Christ. So, don’t let minor differences you have with other believers prevent you from fellowshipping with them.
When the Bible says blessed is the one whose delight is in the law of the Lord, it means that God has not called you to sleep and wait for His manifestation of divine blessings. He is actually telling you to use the knowledge you’ve received in His Word to work.
You are more than a conqueror through Christ, whether you know it or not. But the more you remain conscious of this truth, the better you’ll view life and find comfort in God despite the many atrocities that come with it.
Just because you are born again doesn’t mean you’re less of a human. No! You are still a human with fleshly tendencies. But the power of God resident in you supersedes those desires. So when you put on Christ in your consciousness, the devil’s suggestive thoughts on fleshly lusts won’t have space to breed in your mind for you to even act on it.
Many people are abandoned by their families and friends. They are lonely in remote places but have big dreams to fulfil without knowing how that will happen. To such people, I want to tell them (including you reading this devotional) that they are not useless. You are too needed to be wasted before God.
As a child of God, be thus reminded that you have an anointing from the Holy One – God. And by that unction, you do big things for His glory. Never give up on what He has called you to do, no matter how much distractions try to ward off your attention.
Just as human relationships thrive on devotion and care, our relationship with God flourishes when we prioritise Him in all we do. The question remains—do you love the Lord? If so, let your actions and heart’s posture reflect that love daily.
No matter how many people or companies have rejected you, you are not a castaway before God. Your life may not be as good as you want right now. But do not give up on God. There is a set time in God’s calendar to show forth you to the world in ways anyone who rejected you will be ashamed of themselves. Only don’t neglect your spiritual gift. It is well with you.
