FAITH ENHANCERS (1): A GOOD CONSCIENCE (D)

And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void of offence toward God, and toward men.
Acts 24:16 (KJV)

To wrap up on conscience, we are going to see how that it takes exercising your conscience to maintain a Good Conscience. A good conscience is exercised. Paul told Felix that in our text. Our conscience, like our muscles, must be exercised. If our conscience lies dormant and is not exercised, then it becomes an evil conscience. Hebrews 5:13,14 describes this: “For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.”

HOW TO PUT YOUR FAITH TO WORK (1): BY CONFESSION

HOW TO PUT YOUR FAITH TO WORK (1): BY CONFESSION

For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
Mark 11:23 (KJV)

There is the law of faith that you must learn today. This law of faith states that CONFESSION OF THE PROMISES OF YAHWEH COMES BEFORE POSSESSION OF THE PROMISES. We must learn this law if we are going to be successful. I boldly declare and confess Yahweh’s Word, then and only then do I possess the promised blessing or benefit. I make my lips do the work. I give the Word its place. I take sides with the Word. If I side in with the disease and pain, there is no healing for me. But I repudiate the disease and the sickness with my words, which are an expression of my faith in Yahweh’s Word. My confession gives me possession.

HOW DOES YAHWEH-KIND OF FAITH COME? (6): BY KNOWING THE REALITY OF OUR FELLOWSHIP WITH THE FATHER

HOW DOES YAHWEH-KIND OF FAITH COME? (6): BY KNOWING THE REALITY OF OUR FELLOWSHIP WITH THE FATHER

That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
I John 1:3 (KJV)

The very core reason for redemption is fellowship. 1 CORINTHIANS 1:9 says, ‘God is faithful, by whom ye were called UNTO THE FELLOWSHIP OF HIS SON JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD.’ Notice, you were called unto fellowship with Yahweh’s Son, Yahushua HaMashiach. The Greek word for fellowship in our text is ‘koinonia’. It means joint participation, communion, intercourse, intimacy. This is literally saying that we are in intercourse with the Father, and with His Son Yahushua HaMashiach. This is the highest honour for the human spirit. The highest honour that the Father has ever conferred upon us is to be “joint-fellowshippers” with Himself, with His Son, and with the Holy Spirit in carrying out His dream for the redemption of the human race. But relationship without fellowship is an insipid thing. It is like the marriage relationship without love or fellowship. Fellowship is the very mother of faith. And fellowship is the parent of joy. It is the source of victory. And Yahweh has called us individually into fellowship with His Son. If you have fellowship with Yahweh and you are walking in the light as He is in the light, then prayer becomes one of the sweetest and one of the greatest assets to which we have become heirs in HaMashiach.

THANKFUL FOR FEBRUARY 2023

Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.
Colossians 2:7 [KJV]

Here at #WordForTodayDevotional, we devote the last day of every month as our thanksgiving day where we celebrate the grace of Yahweh that has seen us through the month. We do not take for granted the mercies of the Lord from the first of the month to today the last day. It has been a torrent of the word on Love and we owe the Lord thanks. We have returned today to thank Him for the success of the month of FEBRUARY 2023. In case, you cannot see anything to thank Yahweh for – I know such a person will not be reading this now; let me remind you that not all that saw 1st of FEBRUARY 2023 are alive today to see the 28th of FEBRUARY 2023. It is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed (see Lamentations 3:22). We owe Him thanks today. Also, our attitude of thanksgiving determines, what the next month will be for us. Let us explore more on the benefits of thanksgiving.

THE POWER OF YAHWEH’S LOVE (4): SUPERNATURAL SUPPLIES

THE POWER OF YAHWEH’S LOVE (4): SUPERNATURAL SUPPLIES

And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the Lord, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel.Isaiah 45:3 (KJV)

Mark 13:37 says, “And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.” There is a supernatural supplies agenda that your heavenly Father provided for you in His love. Existing in empty-handedness is an error. Financial quagmire is not for you. There is an abundance provision that has your name tagged on it. Our opening text was addressed to a Cyrus. What Yahweh is saying to Cyrus, He is also saying to Pastor Prince and to you. There are treasures of darkness where natural human eyes cannot access. There are riches in secret places stored away from the wicked and unreasonable men for you. It doesn’t matter your work or profession, lack and want is never in the deal for you. Supernatural supplies is Yahweh’s agenda for you. Supernatural supplies is supplies that comes from the hand of Yahweh through His own orchestration that is beyond human calculation. Your work is not your source of supplies. Your work is a channel but the source remains your heavenly Father and there is no dull moment in His supply system. I want you to blast poverty mentality away from your life from today. There is nothing He cannot give you in the process of time when you show yourself to be ready and mature enough for it.

DEPLOYING YAHWEH’S LOVE IN PARENTING

DEPLOYING YAHWEH’S LOVE IN PARENTING

That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,
Titus 2:4 (KJV)

If a husband and wife are operating the Yahweh-kind of love, then it will flow naturally to the children. The Yahweh-kind of love is very crucial in marriage because the aim of the assault of Satan on the marriage is not the husband and wife per se but the offspring of that union – the children. Both Yahweh and Satan are keenly interested in the children of the marriage. Malachi 2:15 says, “And did not he make one? Yet had he the residue of the spirit. And wherefore one? That he might seek a godly seed. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth.” So our Father Yahweh is interested in the marriage because He is seeking a godly seed. Satan is also seeking to destroy that godly seed of the woman. If Satan can’t get the husband or wife, he will seek to scatter their marriage so that he can destroy the future of the seed. When marriage dies, the children’s future have a 98% of being corrupted by the harsh society environment and influence. Revelation 12:17 says, “And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.” Satan went forth to make war with the seed of the woman. Beloved, there is a war currently going on. Satan wants to destroy your marriage in order to destroy your children. This is the motivation that must drive you to love your spouse with the Yahweh-kind of love. Then extend that love to the children.

CHARACTERISTICS OF YAHWEH’S KIND OF LOVE (13): NEVER FAILS

Love never fails [never fades out or becomes obsolete or comes to an end] …
I Corinthians 13:8 (KJV)

There is only one thing in life that has guarantee, that you can hold closing your eyes and be 100% sure that you are safe and secure. You can completely build your life on this one thing and never again think twice in terms of safety, prosperity, peace and eternity. The Lord Yahweh, the creator of heaven and earth is that one person that cannot fail. In 1 John 4:8, the word tells us that Yahweh is love. Just as Yahweh can never fail, the Yahweh-kind of love can never fail. Walking in the Yahweh-kind of love is the only failure-proof existence that guarantees victory and success both in life and eternity.

CHARACTERISTICS OF YAHWEH’S KIND OF LOVE (11): BELIEVES ALL THINGS

CHARACTERISTICS OF YAHWEH’S KIND OF LOVE (11): BELIEVES ALL THINGS
… is ever ready to believe the best of every person, …
1 Corinthians 13:7 (AMPC)
The word translated as “believes” in the second phrase is “pisteu.” The New Testament Greek Lexicon meaning for the word includes: to think to be true, to be persuaded of, to credit, place confidence in, to trust, etc. Once again, Apostle Paul is speaking about our relationships within the body of HaMashiach. Apostle Paul is not calling for a foolish gullibility. However, being guarded against the possibility of being taken advantage of is not correct either. Obviously, this does not mean that we are to lose all discernment when we love someone. In fact, Apostle Paul prays for the Philippians to have a love characterized by discernment. In Philippians 1:9-10 (NKJV), we read, ‘And this I pray, that your love may abound still more and more in knowledge and all discernment, 10 that you may approve the things that are excellent, that you may be sincere and without offense till the day of Christ,’

CHARACTERISTICS OF YAHWEH’S KIND OF LOVE (9): DOES NOT REJOICE AT INJUSTICE OR UNRIGHTEOUSNESS

CHARACTERISTICS OF YAHWEH’S KIND OF LOVE (9): DOES NOT REJOICE AT INJUSTICE OR UNRIGHTEOUSNESS

It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth prevail.
I Corinthians 13:6 (AMP)

How our lives and relationships will be transformed if we can just start manifesting the Yahweh-kind of love. This love does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness. What does it mean to not rejoice in iniquity? The word “rejoiceth” in the phrase “rejoiceth not in iniquity” according to KJV is translated from the Greek word chairō, which means to rejoice, to be glad, to be delighted or pleased. Think about when you are delighted in something. You may dwell on it or talk about it—maybe you even make a big deal about it or magnify it. You rejoice in it, and it makes you glad. When we manifest the love of Yahweh, we absolutely don’t rejoice in unrighteousness. We assuredly don’t take pleasure in wrongdoing. And we most certainly don’t gloat over other men’s sins nor show gladness when others do wrong or fail.

CHARACTERISTICS OF YAHWEH’S KIND OF LOVE (8): IS NOT TOUCHY, EASILY ANGERED OR RESENTFUL

CHARACTERISTICS OF YAHWEH’S KIND OF LOVE (8): IS NOT TOUCHY, EASILY ANGERED OR RESENTFUL

… it is not touchy or fretful or resentful; it takes no account of the evil done to it [it pays no attention to a suffered wrong].
I Corinthians 13:5 (AMP)

Yahweh-kind of love is not touchy. There are people who are touchy or quick-tempered; they’re so sensitive, you have to be careful the way you talk to them, lest they be offended. That’s not the way of love. Love is not easily offended. To be touchy means to be irritable, quick-tempered, prickly or easily upset. The Greek word ‘Logizomai’ refers to “keeping a mental record” or “taking into account.”1 It is an accounting term. It accounts for the list of wrongs and possesses the ability to accurately look back and pull up any specific offence. As any accountant knows, if you keep track of someone’s payments or debts, it is because you have every intention of drawing their attention back to those financial obligations at some point in the future. The same is true in this case. Those who keep a record of offences (real or perceived) done to them, the intent is to bring those back up at some point in the future and hold that person responsible for their actions. This love does not do so.
