POTTERS TOUCH DEVOTIONAL.

TUESDAY, 30TH JANUARY 2018.

TODAYS DEVOTION. EMPOWERED AGAINST FEAR.

TODAY'S SCRIPTURE."Fear not, earth! Be glad and celebrate! God has done great things." (Joel 2:21 MSG).

Fear is an enemy of God's power! Fear is one of the most terrible forms of bondage. It can turn a giant into a vegetable. As a believer you are not supposed to allow fear around you. Your salvation brought you out of fear into a life of freedom and safety.

"For [the Spirit which] you have now received [is] not a spirit of slavery to put you once more in bondage to fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption [the Spirit producing sonship] in [the bliss of] which we cry, Abba (Father)! Father!" (Romans 8:15 AMP).

You have been given a spirit of adoption, the spirit of sonship, not the spirit of slavery in bondage to fear. Fear is demonic. Hence it is called the spirit of fear, it's an evil spirit. Fear is faith in the negative. You cannot have faith and fear at the same time. It's either you are living in faith or fear. Fear is an indication that you reverence the devil and not God. Fear or faith shows who you believe either satan or God. If you love God, you will believe His word and faith in His word will banish every form of fear.

The Bible says "There is no room in love for fear. Well-formed love banishes fear. Since fear is crippling, a fearful life-fear of death, fear of judgment-is one not yet fully formed in love." (1 John 4:18 MSG). Dealing with the bondage of fear begins with knowing that as a believer in Christ you do not have the spirit of fear.  Greater is He that is in you than He that is in the world.

Fear cannot rule you, "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind." (2 Timothy 1:7 KJV). Reject fear anytime it comes, resist the feeling, thoughts and whatever will promote fear in you. Embrace the spirit of power. The presence of the Holy Spirit in your life is for empowerment. The Bible says you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you(Acts 1:8). Fear is for weaklings! The righteous are as bold as lions.

Lastly, keep the word of God in your spirit. You cannot have the word of God and be afraid of anything. For faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God

TODAY'S CONFESSION.
God has not given me the spirit of fear but of power,love and a sound mind. Fear cannot rule over me in Jesus name. I fear not, I will celebrate this year!

SUNDAY, 17TH  SEPTEMBER 2017. TODAY'S DEVOTION.RAIN OF IDEAS FOR PROSPERITY PART 2. TODAY'S SCRIPTURE. "Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the Lord your God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month. And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:" (Joel 2:23, 28 KJV). The Bible records that Abraham became very rich in cattle,silver and gold. But how did he become outstanding and outshine other bussinessmen? Through the rain of divine ideas by the Holy Ghost which came in response to his giving. Abraham dug wells for his cattle instead of them going about. By divine inspiration he knew what to do to get fatter and fresher cattle and sheep. Isaac also got the secret of irrigation by the re...

POTTERS TOUCH DEVOTIONAL. SATURDAY, 16TH DECEMBER 2017. TODAY'S DEVOTION. WRONG PRAISES!

POTTERS TOUCH DEVOTIONAL. SATURDAY, 16TH DECEMBER 2017. TODAY'S DEVOTION. WRONG PRAISES! TODAY'S SCRIPTURE ."The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican." (Luke 18:11 KJV). There are good ways to praise God and also wrong ways of doing it. Indeed high praises open doors before God but the man in the verse above praised God and his door was closed. Why? Because he did it in a wrong way. Never praise God in an attempt to intimidate and condemn others. Do not ever engage in praise and thanksgiving to show you are better than people around you. High praises ought to be with a deep sense of humility to God i.e it is by grace and not by your own effort. When your praises makes people get offended at God as if God is partial it is wrong. This is common with testimonies during thanksgiving, some believers make it look as if others are not serving God enough. ...
