OPEN HEAVENS DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY
The Bible says in Romans 8:5: …they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. There is therefore the need to find and put on the ‘new man’ according to today’s memory verse. This however, can only be possible through our reliance on the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. To put on the ‘new man’, we must accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour.
When one submits to the lordship of Jesus Christ, the fellow must endeavour to grow in that new experience so that he or she would not fall away. (2 Peter 3:18) says: But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ… When a born-again person is not growing, the old man will resurface. We have many of such among brethren today – troubling the Body of Christ because they are not growing in grace. Are you one of those who believe that the Gospel of the Lord is outdated and no longer relevant to the 21st century Christian? Are you living your life without any concern for holiness? You need to repent so that the adamic nature will give way to a godly lifestyle anchored on the fear of God.
This forms the foundation for growing in grace and living holy. This is what Jesus meant when He said: Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart and ye shall find rest unto your souls. – (Matthew 11:29) Apostle Paul said further in Galatians 5:16-17: This I say then, Walk in the Spirit and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. For the flesh Iusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. Beloved, today’s memory verse is an express command from God. Let us put on the new man – created in righteousness and true holiness, as the perfect image of the Almighty God.
PRAYER POINT: Father, please help me to grow in grace, to put on the image of Your only begotten, Son, in the name of Jesus.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 Kings 21-25
