TOPIC: THE GLORY OF GOD IN THE LAST DAYS 


 TEXT: Matt 26:34-35

_Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this night, before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. Peter said unto him, Though I should die with thee, yet will I not deny thee. Likewise also said all the disciples._


LESSON


How should we prepare for the challenges that will herald the folding up of the kingdom of darkness and the physical re-appearance of the Christ?

 Peter made a very

patriotic statement whilst Christ was preparing their heart for his departure and the

events that will accompany it. The strength of Peter surely failed and was saved by

the intercession of the master who knew the plan of the devil to take him away

_“Simon, Simon (Peter), listen! Satan has asked excessively that [all of] you be given up to him [out of the power and keeping of God], that he might sift [all of] you like grain.But I have prayed especially for you [Peter], that your [own] faith may not fail; and when you yourself have turned again, strengthen and establish your brethren”._  Luke 12:31-32 AMP


Just like Peter was saved by the grace of God, so also will it be for us. Such outpouring of grace is to preserve the chosen no matter the storm. Remember that it was only Judas that was lost because he chose to be. God helped all the weaknesses of the other eleven disciples who had

chosen from their heart to be true to the King. Why did Satan

still need to ask expressly for permission to sift them? The

story of Job gave a clear reason” 

_Have You not put a hedge about him and his house and all that he has, on every side? You have conferred prosperity and happiness upon him in the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land’’_

Job 1:10.


Prepare for more revelation of the grace of God as the days

draw near. It may look as if it makes the Kingdom

simpler. Don’t be religious, don’t be like Peter that sticks to his

efforts. Simply accept the grace and let him hold you. Faith in his

grace,ability and power is what will sustain you. As these mysteries

get unfolded to the true kingdom citizen, open up your heart to receive.


PRAYER ALERT


1.Father, I open my heart to receive your help with

simplicity,as you equip me for the days ahead.It will be better days

by your grace which is always much more than enough( Roman

8: 34).

2. Pray for the Leadership of the Church to get stronger just  as Jesus prayed for

Peter (Luke 12:32)

BUILDERS DEVOTIONAL - REVELATION OF HIS GLORY (3)

BUILDERS DEVOTIONAL DATE: FRIDAY, OCTOBER 15, 2021 TOPIC: REVELATION OF HIS GLORY (3) TEXT: 1 Peter 1:23 _For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God._ LESSON We have a spiritual seed in us that grows till it produces fruits of glory. The kingdom of God in us is likened to a seed that when it fully grows it produces place for birds of the earth to nest in. Lack of the understanding and recognition of that seed leads to men being stranded in the journey of life. Matt 13:31-32 _He told them another parable: "The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his field. 32 Though it is the smallest of all your seeds, yet when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and perch in its branches."_ From the above text, glory is a product of growth which leads to the expression of kingdom potentials you are loaded with. Growth

BUILDERS DEVOTIONAL DATE: WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 6,2021 TOPIC: INCUBATING THE FIRE(3) TEXT: Judges 15:5 _Then firing the sticks, he let the foxes loose among the uncut grain of the Philistines, and all the corded stems as well as the living grain and the vine-gardens and the olives went up in flames._ LESSON Samson had a focus of what to do with the foxes as well as the extent of the fields to be burnt. This determined the number of the foxes he gathered! Even God had given Adam a job before giving him a help meet! This is vision. Samson also knew that a single fox will not get what needed to be done accomplished therefore he gathered a team of foxes. In a nutshell, no haphazard burning. It is the vision that determines  the provision, the fields you have in view create passion and fire then will fall! You cannot pray beyond the burden you have. You cannot be anointed beyond the vision you have. You only need men in your life to fulfil his vision. Yield to the vision, live for a course, th

 BUILDERS DEVOTIONAL DATE: WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 15,2021 TOPIC: ON THE EAGLES WING (1) Text: Ex 19:4 (NIV) _'You yourselves have seen what I did to Egypt, and how I carried you on eagles' wings and brought you to myself._ LESSON The seed of glory in believers that was deposited for kingdom expression by the word of God is the Spirit of God. No fruit without a tree and no tree without the seed. To bear kingdom fruits, we must recognize the kingdom seed, nurture the tree of life in us and dispatch the fruit of the kingdom to the world. Rev 22:2(NIV) _down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruitevery month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations_   The Holy Spirit  is the fountain of glory. Now we want to learn how to unlock this fountain on  continuous basis. As it is in many matters of life, the basic principle is constant. _'You yourselves have seen
