GOD IS YOUR SHIELD
 
Scriptural Highlight: (Job 3:5) - "But put forth thy hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse thee to thy face."

Beloved, looking closely at our scriptural highlight for today, you can easily see the devil's wish against God's children -evil. He is always making moves to destroy us, and to destroy the testimony we have in Christ. He suggested to  God to put forth His hand to harm Job. In John 10:10 Jesus revealed to us that "the thief (devil) comes to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly."

But one thing we must note in this scriptural highlight is the helplessness of the devil where it concerns God's children. He has no power over us; he cannot even harm nor hinder us. The shield of God is always surrounding us. In Jesus we have life in abundance. In fact, after the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, we (believers in Jesus) were made to be seated far above the enemy (Ephesians 2:6).

Beloved, it does not matter the challenges or problems the enemy has caused to come your way, hold fast your confession in Jesus and resist him; there is light at the end of the tunnel; Just keep connected to Jesus. Just like Job in the scripture, the enemy will not succeed over your head; you are another failure of the devil. Flourish!
Pray: Lord, I connect myself to you in Jesus name.

The Issue With Wealth II

There is a point one can get to in life where money is no longer a challenge. If one reaches this level and care is not taken, you may discover that dependence on God on certain issues may begin to decline. Because some of the things the person used to pray about, money can now provide them. There is another category of people who have all the money they will ever need in life; and there are others that have never known what is called lack all their life. These kind of people may never understand if you tell them how impoverished people are, out their. They may see it in the television or in the papers but they may not fully come to terms with it. Some in this group can put people down to make sure they maintain position. Then, finally we have the poor folks and those trying to make ends meet. I have one problem with this last two category, especially the poor, they always think that the rich is the cause of their poverty. You may never blame someone who was born with a silver

MY PAST HUNTS ME! HOW DO I DEAL WITH IT NOW THAT AM IN CHRIST?

  DRAW A LINE BETWEEN YOUR PAST AND YOUR FUTURE ! Many people come to Christ daily but battle with the memories of their past life which probably was rough, painful or traumatic. I have seen many people who struggled to live their new found faith in Christ just because a terrible past life comes hunting: I have seen some who got delivered from occult involvements, terrible abuses, sexual lifestyles and other dehumanizing struggles battling to live the Christian life because of the height of what they had been through. For some of them even when God has forgiven their sins, they find it hard to forgive themselves. So the devil takes advantage of the struggle, self condemnation or guilt to hinder their growth in the things of the spirit. But the Bible teaches that, he that is in Christ is a new creation, old things are past away and behold all things are new. No matter what a person has done, as long as the person has not grieved the Holy Spirit, he can be saved. So the que
