• A WORD FOR YOU.
    (Insights For Life)


    Know therefore that the Lord thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations; Deuteronomy 7:9 KJV


    YOU NEED A COVENANT WALK
    You must understand this fundamental truth: God is an ever-faithful and A COVENANT KEEPING GOD. He watches over, guards, preserves, maintains His Words (not to hold it but) to fulfill it. He doesn't just fulfill his promises, HE FULFILLS HIS COVENANT. So what is a covenant?

    A Covenant is a solemn, binding agreement between two or more parties. When you become born again, you are automatically adopted into a covenant family - you become a covenant child of God. But that covenant is a BASIC COVENANT. IT COMES WITH BASIC RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES. IT IS LEGAL AND BINDING ON GOD AS REGARDS CERTAIN PROMISES TO YOU. BUT IT IS BASIC COVENANT.

    Many believers stop at this "basic" level of the covenant. So they get the basic provisions and promises in the covenant package. But there is so much more. IT COMES WITH A COVENANT WALK. You MUST strike a personal covenant with God before certain covenant promises and provisions can become accessible to you. Everyone can proclaim: I cannot be poor, yet remain poor. But those who walk in the covenant of this scripture don't just proclaim it, they experience the reality of that scripture. You know why? It is because that scripture has changed from just a promise to a covenant - it is now adopted and enacted, and binding on God to fulfill. How do you enter into a covenant walk with God? Check out this scripture.

    “Gather My godly ones to Me, Those who have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice.” Psalms 50:5 AMP.
    Watch the Word: "...who made a covenant with me by sacrifice."
    On the 9th of December, 2010, After our Church wedding, both of us attended Shiloh (winners chapel) otta, Nigeria, no time for honeymoon. The Lord came to me and said: DROP ALL YOU HAVE, I WANT TO ENTER INTO A COVENANT WITH YOU (3times). Then he added: A COVENANT OF CONSTANT SUPPLY. You can doubt this encounter but you can't doubt the result. Listen, THERE ARE THINGS YOU WILL NEVER ACCESS BY CONFESSING AND PROCLAIMING. THEY ONLY COME BY A PERSONAL COVENANT WALK WITH GOD - AND THIS IS MADE POSSIBLE BY SACRIFICE.Once enacted, living that scripture becomes seamless. Remember, you can initiate the covenant with God and God can initiate it with you. But there is more. I pray for you, may your understanding be enlightened and may you walk in a covenant with God in Jesus precious name. Be blessed, Stay refreshed!

  • Prayer With Character Is Priceless

    Bible Text: Philippians 1:9–10 (KJV)
    “And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment; That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ.”

    Prayer with character is priceless.

    Many pray in church without allowing prayer to transform their character. They come to church to pray without truly understanding the essence of prayer—to mould them, break them, refine them, and conform them to the image of Christ.

    Some pray selfishly, seeking only self-love, personal gratification, and the fulfilment of their own desires. But the true state of the heart is often revealed when trials come or when they face challenges that do not align with their expectations. It is then you realize that, despite all their prayers, they still have a long way to go.

    Prayer is not merely an activity we perform; it is an encounter with God that should produce transformation in us.

    Without character, prayer can become an activity without manifestation—words spoken from the lips without corresponding transformation in the life.

    The prayer that truly matters is not only the prayer that changes our circumstances, but the prayer that changes us.

    A life that is continually shaped, refined, humbled, and transformed by God gives substance to its prayers.

    God's Loving Heart.

  • YOU SHALL SPROUT AGAIN. .

    TEXT: Job 14:7-9. (KJV).

    "For there is hope of a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout
    again, and that the tender branch thereof will not cease.
    Though the root thereof wax old in the earth, and the stock
    thereof die in the ground; Yet through the scent of water it will
    bud, and bring forth boughs like a plant."

    Other Texts: (Numbers 23:19; Joshua 21:45; 2 Corinthians
    1:20; Genesis 21:1–2; Deuteronomy 7:9; Isaiah 55:10–11; Habakkuk 2:3; 1 Kings 8:56.)

    Introduction:
    There are seasons in life when it appears that everything has come to an end.
    Dreams seem buried, businesses collapse, ministries become dry, families experience heartbreak, and health fails. The enemy whispers, "It is over."
    But God declares through Job 14:7, "There is hope."
    Our God specializes in bringing life out of death, beauty out of ashes, and restoration after devastation.
    If a tree can sprout again after being cut down, then a child of God can also rise again.
    No matter how much has been lost, you shall sprout again.

    I. YOUR SETBACK IS NOT YOUR END.
    Job 14:7
    A tree may be cut down, but its roots remain alive.
    The enemy may cut down your finances, reputation, relationships, or ministry, but if your roots remain in Christ, your future is secure.
    Job lost everything, yet God restored him double (Job 42:10-17).

    Joseph was betrayed, sold into slavery, and imprisoned before becoming governor (Genesis 37; 39-41).
    Naomi returned to Bethlehem empty, but God filled her again through Ruth (Ruth 1-4).
    A farmer does not uproot every tree after cutting its branches because he knows that life is still hidden beneath the surface. Likewise, what appears dead to people may still be alive in God's hands.
    People may write you off, but God has not finished writing your story.

    2. THE ROOT DETERMINES THE FUTURE.
    Job 14:8
    "Though the root thereof wax old..."
    God focuses on the root rather than the branches.
    The branches represent visible success.
    The roots represent: Prayer, Faith, Character, Holiness, God's Word
    A believer with deep roots can recover after any storm.
    (Psalm 1:3, Jeremiah 17:7-8, Colossians 2:6-7)
    Never neglect your spiritual roots during difficult seasons.

    3. THE SCENT OF WATER BRINGS REVIVAL.
    Job 14:9
    The tree sprouts not because someone pushes it but because it senses water.
    Throughout Scripture, water represents:
    The Holy Spirit (John 7:37-39)
    The Word of God (Ephesians 5:26)
    God's refreshing presence (Isaiah 44:3)
    The moment God's presence touches a dry life, restoration begins.
    Ezekiel's dry bones came alive by God's Spirit (Ezekiel 37:1-14).
    Samson regained strength when his hair grew again (Judges 16:22).
    Peter failed terribly, yet Jesus restored him and he became a bold preacher (John 21:15-19).
    During drought, fields appear lifeless. Yet when rain falls, seeds hidden beneath the soil suddenly germinate. What looked dead was only waiting for the right season.
    Stay connected to God's presence because one encounter can change everything.

    4. GOD RESTORES WHAT SEEMS LOST
    God is the God of restoration.
    (Joel 2:25-27, Isaiah 61:7, Psalm 126:1-6)
    God restores: Lost opportunities, Joy, Peace, Relationships, Ministries, Finances, Health etc.
    Lazarus came back from the grave (John 11).
    The Shunammite woman received back her land and possessions (2 Kings 8:1-6).
    The prodigal son was restored to his father's house (Luke 15:11-24).
    God's restoration is often greater than what was lost.

    5. SPROUTING AGAIN REQUIRES FAITH.
    Faith sees life where others see death.
    (Hebrews 11:1, Mark 9:23, Romans 4:17-21)
    Abraham believed against hope.
    Sarah conceived in old age.
    Nothing is impossible with God.
    Faith keeps believing until God's promise becomes reality.

    6. DO NOT DESPISE SMALL BEGINNINGS.
    When a tree sprouts again, it starts with a small shoot.
    God often begins restoration in small ways.
    (Zechariah 4:10, Isaiah 60:22)
    David moved from shepherd boy to king one step at a time (1 Samuel 16; 2 Samuel 5).
    Celebrate every sign of progress because God often starts small before doing something great.

    7. YOUR TESTIMONY WILL ENCOURAGE OTHERS.
    When God restores you, your life becomes a testimony.
    (Psalm 40:1-3, Revelation 12:11)
    Others who have lost hope will gain courage because of what God has done for you.

    LESSONS FOR TODAY'S CHRISTIAN
    Never conclude your life before God has finished His work.
    Remain rooted in Christ during difficult seasons.
    Stay in God's presence because revival comes from Him.
    Believe that restoration is possible even after great loss.
    Be patient with God's timing.
    Small beginnings can lead to great breakthroughs.
    Your restored life will glorify God and strengthen the faith of others.

    PRACTICAL APPLICATION
    Ask yourself:
    Are my spiritual roots still alive?
    Am I staying close to God through prayer and His Word?
    Am I trusting God's promises more than my present circumstances?
    Am I ready to recognize the new beginning God is bringing?
    Even if life has "cut you down," God can cause you to sprout again.

    SUMMARY.
    The enemy may have cut down your dreams, delayed your progress, or shaken your confidence, but he cannot destroy what God has planted.
    The same God who restored Job, raised Lazarus, revived dry bones, and restored Peter is still at work today.
    Your current season is not your final chapter.
    By the power of the Holy Spirit, new life will emerge from what seemed finished.
    Your joy will return, your calling will flourish, your faith will grow stronger, and your testimony will declare God's faithfulness.
    Remember God's promise: "For there is hope of a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again..." (Job 14:7, KJV).
    Declare by faith:
    I shall sprout again.
    My hope is alive in Christ.
    My dry season is coming to an end.
    God is restoring every area of my life.
    My latter days shall be greater than my former days.
    My testimony will bring glory to God.
    In Jesus' mighty name, Amen.

    SHALOM.

  • Therefore, brothers, we have boldness to enter into the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way that he has consecrated for us through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;
    Hebrews 10:19-20

    “The Veil”– In both the tabernacle and the temple there was a curtain which separated the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place. This signified that the way into God’s presence was not yet revealed. That curtain was a symbol of Christ. When Christ came in a human body and died for our sins. The curtain in the temple was torn into two parts (Matt 27:50-51), leaving a gap in the middle. In other words, His death revealed the way into God’s presence. We can enter the Most Holy Place because of Christ’s crucified body, torn for us..

    May anyone who is struggling in life and not knowing what to but willing to surrender to the Authority of Christ over his or her life, receive a revelation of this Word by the Spirit of God as a personal encounter and that your perception might change for the best..

    Christ Jesus is real, He saves, He Heals and does all kind of repairs (emotional, mental, spiritual) etc.

    He grants us access to the presence of God.. Note that, the Holy Spirit through the blood of Jesus can grant you the access and not by any means.
    Don't be Lost inside and outside, Come to Jesus...

  • Good morning, brethren.
    1. Morning devotion for today.

    MD.i. MORNING TEA
    THE WORD FOR TODAY. SUNDAY AUGUST 30, 2O26.
    "THERE'S NOBODY LIKE HIM! (5)"

    ‘The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?...’ Psalms 27:1 NKJV

    WE ALL need an encounter with the transfigured Christ; the One who is greater than Moses the law giver and Elijah the prophet, and all the other prophets who have ever lived. The One who wears the true crown of the universe, God’s beloved Son. We need to fall on our face and see Him as the Holy One, the Highest One, the Only One. As you do, all your fears, save the fear of Christ Himself, will melt like an ice cube on a summer day. You will agree with David: ‘The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?’ In the book Prince Caspian, there is a great illustration of this. Lucy sees Aslan the lion for the first time in many years. He has changed since their last encounter. His size surprises her, and she tells him as much. ‘Aslan,’ says Lucy, ‘you’re bigger.’ He replies, ‘That is because you are older, little one.’ Lucy says, ‘Not because you are?’ He replies, ‘I am not. But every year you grow, you find me bigger.’ And so it is in our walk with Christ. The longer we serve Him, the greater He becomes. It’s not that He changes, but that we do. We see dimensions, aspects, characteristics we never saw before; increasing and astonishing increments of His purity, power, and uniqueness. Only when we have fallen at His feet in humility and total dependence will He say to us what He said to His disciples on the Mount where He was transfigured: ‘…“Arise, and do not be afraid”’ (Matthew 17:7 NKJV).

    *SEEKING THE BREAD OF LIFE: BEYOND TEMPORARY BLESSINGS*

    *TEXT:* JOHN 6:24–34

    24. When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Jesus.
    25. And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither?
    26. Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled.
    27. Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.
    28. Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?
    29. Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.
    30. They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work?
    31. Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.
    32. Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.
    33. For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.
    34. Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.

    *Timeless Truth:*
    _But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you _*(Matthew 6:33)*.

    *INTRODUCTION*

    In 1997, the world watched as Mother Teresa continued her work among the poor and dying in Calcutta despite having very limited material resources. Her ministry was not built around accumulating possessions, but around serving people and pointing them toward Christ. Her life demonstrated that material needs, though important, cannot by themselves satisfy the deepest needs of the human heart. This truth is reflected in Jesus' encounter with the crowd in John 6. The people had witnessed the miracle of the feeding of the five thousand. They had received bread miraculously and when they could no longer find Jesus, they sought for Him. However, Jesus exposed the motive behind their search: *“You seek Me, not because you saw the signs, but because you ate of the loaves and were filled.”* (John 6:26)
    They were pursuing Jesus primarily because of what He could give them, rather than because of who He is. Jesus then redirected their attention from temporary bread to eternal nourishment:
    The passage challenges us to examine our motives: Are we seeking Christ because we love Him or primarily because of what we hope to receive from Him?
    The crowd came looking for Jesus, but Jesus knew why they were looking for Him. They had eaten the bread, enjoyed the miracle and wanted more. Their problem was not that they wanted bread. Their problem was that they wanted bread without fully recognizing the Bread of Life. This remains a danger for Christians today.
    We can seek God for: employment, healing, financial breakthrough, academic success, marriage, protection, promotion, material provision and all these things may legitimately be brought before God in prayer. However, if our relationship with Christ is reduced to what He can provide, we have misunderstood discipleship. Jesus is not merely the Provider of bread; He is the Bread of Life. The greatest blessing is not what God places in our hands, but who God places in our hearts. Physical bread sustains the body temporarily. Money can provide comfort temporarily. Success can bring recognition temporarily. Possessions can give pleasure temporarily, but none of these can satisfy the deepest hunger of the human soul. Only Christ can do that. Therefore, we must examine our priorities.
    Are we spending more time pursuing things than pursuing God? Are we more excited about God's gifts than about God's presence? Do we pray only when we need something or do we desire fellowship with Christ because we love Him? The answer of Jesus is clear:
    *Do not labour for the food which perisheth, but for the food which endureth to everlasting life.*
    Let us therefore, seek Christ above possessions, eternal life above temporary success and God's kingdom above worldly satisfaction. When Christ becomes our greatest treasure, we can enjoy God's blessings without allowing those blessings to become our god. The deepest hunger of the human heart can only be satisfied by Jesus Christ, the Bread of Life.

    *1. The Pursuit of Temporary Satisfaction*

    a. The crowd crossed the sea looking for Jesus, but their motivation was primarily physical. The people sought diligently for Jesus after discovering that He had left. Seeking Christ is good, but our motives matter.
    We should seek Jesus not merely for His blessings, but because He is worthy of our love and devotion.
    b. The crowd had witnessed a miracle and wanted more. They were attracted to what Jesus could do rather than surrendering themselves to who Jesus is.
    *(For we walk by faith, not by sight:)*
    (2 Corinthians 5:7) — Miracles can point us toward Christ, but miracles themselves must never become the foundation of our faith. Physical food satisfies temporarily; eventually, we become hungry again.

    *Questions*

    (i) What do I pursue most—God Himself or the blessings I hope to receive from Him?
    (ii) Have material possessions, comfort, success or recognition become more important to me than spiritual growth?


    *2. The Priority of Eternal Substance*

    a. Jesus redirected the crowd from physical food toward the nourishment that leads to eternal life.
    This does not mean Christians should neglect legitimate work or physical responsibilities. Rather, eternal things must have first priority. Our careers, businesses, education and possessions are important, but none should replace our pursuit of God.
    b. Jesus made it clear that eternal life ultimately comes from God.
    *For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:*
    (Ephesians 2:8). We cannot earn salvation through human achievement.
    When the crowd asked what they should do, Jesus answered: The central response God desires is genuine faith in Jesus Christ.

    *Questions*

    (i) Am I investing as much energy in my spiritual life as I invest in my career and material needs?
    (ii) Am I trusting Christ for salvation or am I depending on my good works and religious activities?

    *3. The Provision of Sufficient Bread*

    a. The crowd remembered the manna given to Israel in the wilderness and asked Jesus for a sign. They referred to Moses and the manna: They were focusing on an earlier miracle instead of recognizing the greater One standing before them. Past spiritual experiences are valuable testimonies, but we must continue walking with Christ today.
    b. Jesus corrected their understanding: *Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.*(John 6:32.) God's provision in the wilderness pointed beyond physical manna to Christ Himself. We can trust God to provide what we genuinely need while remembering that our greatest need is spiritual life in Christ.
    The crowd responded: *“Lord, give us this bread always.”* Although they still misunderstood, their request provided an opportunity for Jesus to reveal the truth that became explicit in the following verse: *And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst* (John 6:35).Jesus Himself is the ultimate provision for the deepest hunger of the human soul.

    *Questions*

    (i) Where do I turn when I experience emotional, spiritual or inner emptiness?
    (ii) Am I allowing Christ to satisfy my deepest spiritual hunger through His Word and fellowship?

    *Prayer Points*

    1. Lord, help me to seek You above every temporary possession, achievement and earthly ambition.
    2. Father, create within me a deeper hunger and thirst for Your Word, Your presence and Your righteousness.
    3. Lord, teach me to trust Your provision and to remain content with what You graciously provide.
    4. Lord Jesus, draw those who are spiritually empty and searching, to Yourself and help them discover that You alone can give eternal life.

    *SEEKING JESUS RIGHTLY* 🫵🏽🏽‍🏽‍🏽🏽‍🏽

    ```TEXT:JOHN 6:24-34```

    ```KEY VERSE:``` _*"Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed" (JOHN 6:27).*_

    *Happiness is a lifetime pursuit, but sadly, it is rarely sought rightly. Youths seek it in alcohol, drugs or pornography and end up in self-destruction. Adults seek it in marriage, money, mansions but end up in unfathomable failure, frustration and great pain. As Solomon makes clear in Ecclesiastes, any earthly thing that you seek to satisfy the inner void is like chasing soap bubbles. You catch one only to have it burst in your hand.*

    *Our text opens with a narrative about seekers of Jesus. Seeking Jesus is a good thing, but it is not enough. What you seek Him for is more important. The sinner must seek Him for salvation, recognising he is spiritually bankrupt without His gift of salvation. Sadly, the crowd in our text sought Jesus for temporal gratification, not eternal salvation! Jesus saw their motive for seeking Him and punctured their search with a scathing, incisive, yet profoundly true remark: "Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled".*

    *The Bible is clear that our ultimate source of happiness and pleasure is God. David wrote, "In thy presence is fullness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore". Jesus told the disciples: "These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full". We will find fullness of joy and pleasures forever when we seek the Lord rightly.*

    *Beloved, never seek the Lord for superficial motives. They are a mirage; bubbles that never last. Beyond the bread (healing, deliverance, prosperity and miracles) that Christ gives, seek Him who is the Bread of Life, the Bread from heaven. Be discreet to shun dispensing your life energy on labouring for perishable material things that will never satisfy the imperishable soul. "Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not?" (Isaiah 55:2). He still saves as many as would come to Him for salvation and restores backsliders who truly repent. God does not despise genuine hunger and thirst for righteousness. "Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled."*

    ✍🏽```THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:``` _*It is self-cheating to seek the Lord only for material or temporary blessings.*_

    ```TEXT:PSALM 91:10-16```

    ``` MEMORY VERSE:``` _*"There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways" (PSALM 91:10-11).*_

    *In the early hours of February 6, 2023, thousands were confirmed dead in the aftermath of two huge earthquakes in Syria. Baby Aya (meaning miracle in Arabic) was still connected to her mother by her umbilical cord when she was rescued from the rubble during the earthquake disaster in Syria. Her mother, father and all four of her siblings died after the quake hit the town of Jindayris in Syria.*

    *Aya survived, although she was in such a bad state. She had bumps, bruises, and was cold and barely breathing when she arrived in the hospital. Fortunately, the hospital manager, Khalid Attiah, had a daughter just four months older than she. The wife offered to breastfeed Aya alongside her own daughter. What a divine protection!*

    *Who would have thought that such a child would still be alive under the debris? God kept her alive in His secret place. The Lord has promised to give His angels charge over you to keep you from calamity. His promises are sure. "The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul" (Psalm 121:7).*

    *BEARING ONE ANOTHER'S BURDEN* 🫵🏽🏽‍🏽‍🏽🏽‍🏽

    ```GALATIANS 6:1-4```



    ```Key Verse:``` _*"Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ" (Galatians 6:2).*_



    Sometime ago, at a special Olympics event, nine contestants (all physically disabled), assembled at the starting line for a 100-yard race. At the sound of the whistle, they started out all happy and eager to run the race and win.

    As they were running, one of them stumbled on the track, tumbled over a couple of times, and began to cry. The other eight heard the boy cry, they slowed down and looked back. Then all of them turned around and went back to the fallen athlete. Lifting him up, they walked together to the finish line. Everyone in the stadium stood to cheer them for several minutes.

    *This was a practical act of bearing one another's burden. More than winning for ourselves, what matters in this life is helping others to win, even if it means slowing down. A candle loses nothing by lightning another candle.*

    *The lesson for us here is that we must show love, concern and care for others. God is much interested in how we show love to our neighbours than the number of laurels we gather. The boy or girl next to you is in pain - show love to him or her. When we care for one another, the burden becomes lighter.*



    ```rayer:``` _*Lord, help me to learn to always give a helping hand to someone in need.*_ 🏽

    2. Morning Prayer for today.

    MP.i. Morning Prayer

    A Song of degrees of David. I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD. ⏤ Psalm 122:1

    True prayer is not asking God for what we want, but what He wants. ⏤ Wesley L. Duewel

    Father, as we pause to rest this day with You, the great feverish world keeps throbbing on. May something of Your blessed Sunday peace flow out into this restless world and quiet it. Let this day be a true blessing to all Your people, and may the influence of this day reach far and wide, making its power felt throughout the world.

    We ask that Your grace be given so that all who worship You today may receive a blessing. Let Your blessing be upon all assemblies that gather for worship and upon all Sunday schools. May there be divine power in the preaching of Your word. May lost sinners be convicted and led to repentance. May Christians be strengthened and encouraged. May those who are sorrowful be comforted. May this day bring new strength and heavenly impulses to children and young people. May our home be blessed and enriched by this day of rest and worship. May Your life from Heaven come down and make our land holier, purer, and sweeter.

    O God, Your cause on earth sometimes seems to falter. Your church does not always appear to be earnest. The world is earnest; every energy of evil is active. Wicked people are busy in their wickedness, while the followers of Jesus seem to be asleep! Your kingdom does not seem to be advancing among the nations. We pray again, "May Your kingdom come." Pour out Your Spirit upon all who bear the name of Jesus. Ignite revival fires in all parts of the church. We pray for ourselves, that we may be quickened in our spiritual life.

    Let a blessing be upon Your whole church, and may Your cause receive a divine impulse that will be felt around the world. Revive Your work among Your people. Hear our prayers and give us Your blessing through Jesus Christ our Savior. Amen.

    Good morning, brethren. 1. Morning devotion for today. MD.i. 😀🎀💝🎁🌺🌹MORNING TEA THE WORD FOR TODAY. SUNDAY AUGUST 30, 2O26. "THERE'S NOBODY LIKE HIM! (5)" ‘The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?...’ Psalms 27:1 NKJV WE ALL need an encounter with the transfigured Christ; the One who is greater than Moses the law giver and Elijah the prophet, and all the other prophets who have ever lived. The One who wears the true crown of the universe, God’s beloved Son. We need to fall on our face and see Him as the Holy One, the Highest One, the Only One. As you do, all your fears, save the fear of Christ Himself, will melt like an ice cube on a summer day. You will agree with David: ‘The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?’ In the book Prince Caspian, there is a great illustration of this. Lucy sees Aslan the lion for the first time in many years. He has changed since their last encounter. His size surprises her, and she tells him as much. ‘Aslan,’ says Lucy, ‘you’re bigger.’ He replies, ‘That is because you are older, little one.’ Lucy says, ‘Not because you are?’ He replies, ‘I am not. But every year you grow, you find me bigger.’ And so it is in our walk with Christ. The longer we serve Him, the greater He becomes. It’s not that He changes, but that we do. We see dimensions, aspects, characteristics we never saw before; increasing and astonishing increments of His purity, power, and uniqueness. Only when we have fallen at His feet in humility and total dependence will He say to us what He said to His disciples on the Mount where He was transfigured: ‘…“Arise, and do not be afraid”’ (Matthew 17:7 NKJV). Bible In A Year: Ezek 20-21, Matt 22:15-22, Ps 111, Pro 19:18-20.

When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Jesus. 25. And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither? 26. Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled. 27. Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed. 28. Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? 29. Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. 30. They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work? 31. Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat. 32. Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven. 33. For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world. 34.

At the sound of the whistle, they started out all happy and eager to run the race and win. As they were running, one of them stumbled on the track, tumbled over a couple of times, and began to cry. The other eight heard the boy cry, they slowed down and looked back. Then all of them turned around and went back to the fallen athlete. Lifting him up, they walked together to the finish line. Everyone in the stadium stood to cheer them for several minutes. *This was a practical act of bearing one another's burden. More than winning for ourselves, what matters in this life is helping others to win, even if it means slowing down. A candle loses nothing by lightning another candle.* *The lesson for us here is that we must show love, concern and care for others. God is much interested in how we show love to our neighbours than the number of laurels we gather. The boy or girl next to you is in pain - show love to him or her.

Morning Prayer for today. MP.i. Morning Prayer A Song of degrees of David. I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD. ⏤ Psalm 122:1 True prayer is not asking God for what we want, but what He wants. ⏤ Wesley L. Duewel Father, as we pause to rest this day with You, the great feverish world keeps throbbing on. May something of Your blessed Sunday peace flow out into this restless world and quiet it. Let this day be a true blessing to all Your people, and may the influence of this day reach far and wide, making its power felt throughout the world. We ask that Your grace be given so that all who worship You today may receive a blessing. Let Your blessing be upon all assemblies that gather for worship and upon all Sunday schools. May there be divine power in the preaching of Your word. May lost sinners be convicted and led to repentance. May Christians be strengthened and encouraged. May those who are sorrowful be comforted. May this day bring new strength and heavenly impulses to children and young people. May our home be blessed and enriched by this day of rest and worship. May Your life from Heaven come down and make our land holier, purer, and sweeter. O God, Your cause on earth sometimes seems to falter. Your church does not always appear to be earnest. The world is earnest; every energy of evil is active. Wicked people are busy in their wickedness, while the followers of Jesus seem to be asleep! Your kingdom does not seem to be advancing among the nations. We pray again, "May Your kingdom come." Pour out Your Spirit upon all who bear the name of Jesus. Ignite revival fires in all parts of the church. We pray for ourselves, that we may be quickened in our spiritual life. Let a blessing be upon Your whole church, and may Your cause receive a divine impulse that will be felt around the world. Revive Your work among Your people. Hear our prayers and give us Your blessing through Jesus Christ our Savior. Amen. https://www.youdevotion.com/daily-prayer/miller/56/morning #taptapstudio #youdevotion.

  • *TESTAMENT OF GRACE GLOBAL ASSEMBLY (GRACE REVIVAL CENTRE)*

    *LIFELINES DEVOTIONAL FOR SATURDAY,AUGUST 29, 2026*

    *TOPIC: COMPLETE RESTORATION IN CHRIST*

    *BIBLE VERSE*
    “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” -2 Corinthians 5:17 (KJV)

    *MEDITATION*
    The greatest restoration God can give a person is not merely the recovery of possessions, opportunities, health, relationships, or earthly achievements; it is the restoration of the person himself through a relationship with Jesus Christ. Sin damages the human spirit, distorts identity, separates people from God, and produces consequences that affect every area of life. Yet when a person comes to Christ, God begins a transformation that reaches the very foundation of his existence. Paul declares, “If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature.” This means that salvation is not simply an improvement of the old life but the beginning of a new life in Christ. The believer receives a new identity, a new relationship with God, a new spiritual position, and a new direction. The old things no longer have the authority to define who that person must become because Christ has introduced the believer into a new creation.

    The transformation produced by knowing Christ is beautifully demonstrated in the life of Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector who had become wealthy through a profession associated with exploitation and dishonesty, and his community regarded him as a sinner (Luke 19:1–7). Yet when Jesus entered his life, something profound happened. Zacchaeus did not merely express admiration for Jesus; his encounter with Christ produced a transformation in his values and behaviour. He declared, “Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold” (Luke 19:8). Jesus responded, “This day is salvation come to this house” (Luke 19:9). His encounter with Christ affected his relationship with money, his relationship with people, his sense of responsibility, and his understanding of righteousness. This demonstrates that genuine knowledge of Christ produces visible changes in the life of the believer.

    The Apostle Paul himself provides another powerful example of complete transformation. Before his encounter with Christ, Paul was passionately persecuting the Church, believing that he was doing God's will (Acts 8:3; 9:1–2). But when Jesus appeared to him on the road to Damascus, his entire direction changed (Acts 9:3–6). The persecutor became a preacher, the destroyer of Christian lives became a builder of the Church, and the man who had once opposed Christ devoted the remainder of his life to proclaiming the gospel. Paul later wrote, “I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord” (Philippians 3:8). His transformation demonstrates that no past is so destructive that Christ cannot redeem the person who surrenders to Him. God does not merely erase the record of our past; He gives us a new purpose through which our restored lives can become instruments of His kingdom.

    Complete restoration in Christ also involves the restoration of our relationship with God. Sin separated humanity from God, but Christ came to reconcile us to the Father. Scripture declares, “And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ” (2 Corinthians 5:18). Through Christ, the guilty receive forgiveness, the condemned receive justification, the alienated are brought near, and those who were spiritually dead are made alive. Ephesians 2:13 declares, “But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.” This is the deepest dimension of divine restoration because every other blessing finds its proper place when the believer is reconciled to God. Material restoration without spiritual restoration cannot satisfy the deepest needs of the human soul, but when Christ restores the heart, He establishes a foundation upon which every other aspect of life can be rebuilt according to His will.

    The new life in Christ is not only about what God has delivered us from; it is also about what He is continually making us into. Romans 12:2 instructs believers, “Be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind.” The believer therefore cooperates with God's transforming work by continually submitting to His Word, walking in the Spirit, pursuing holiness, forgiving others, developing godly character, and growing in the knowledge of Christ. The disciples provide an encouraging example of this process. They began as ordinary men with weaknesses, misunderstandings, fears, and ambitions, yet through their relationship with Jesus they were progressively transformed into bold witnesses of the gospel. Peter, who once denied Christ, eventually proclaimed Him publicly with extraordinary courage (Acts 2:14–41). Restoration in Christ is therefore both an event and a continuing journey: we become new in Christ, and then we continue to be renewed as we walk with Him.

    If you have experienced losses, failures, disappointments, or seasons that have left you feeling broken, remember that Christ does not merely want to restore isolated parts of your life; He wants to make you new. Your past may contain mistakes, but it does not have to determine your future. Your failures may have wounded you, but they do not have to become your identity. Your losses may have changed your circumstances, but they cannot cancel God's ability to give your life new meaning and purpose. “Old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” Come to Christ again and again with every broken area of your life, allowing His grace to transform your heart, renew your mind, restore your relationship with God, and redirect your purpose. The ultimate evidence of restoration is not simply that you possess more than you once possessed, but that you have become more like Christ. In Christ, restoration reaches its fullest expression when a broken life becomes a new creation and a wounded story becomes a testimony of God's transforming grace.

    *PRAYER*
    Heavenly Father, thank You for the complete restoration that is available in Christ. Make me new in every area of my life, renew my mind, heal my heart, restore my relationship with You, and transform my character and purpose. Let everything that belongs to the old life lose its power over me, and let the beauty of Christ be revealed through my restored life. In Jesus' mighty name, Amen.
