BUILDERS DEVOTIONAL

TOPIC: REST IS IN HIS PRESENCE


TEXT: Ex 33:14(NIV)

_The Lord replied, "My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest._


LESSON


The mark that distinguishes believers as the chosen is the manifest presence. True rest lies in him. This is true in reality by this manifest presence. 


The possibilities that find expression through his manifest presence are indeed enormous. His goodness is his presence.


Ex 33:19

 _And the Lord said, "I will cause all my goodness to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim my name, the Lord, in your presence. I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion._


We were not only redeemed by the blood but we have access by his blood to his presence which is the holy of holies (Heb 10:20)


Heb 10:20-22

_By a new and living way opened for us through the curtain, that is, his body, 21 and since we have a great priest over the house of God, 22 let us draw near to God with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water._


The flesh was cut for blood to be shed. Likewise,  the one that denies the flesh is given access to the manifest presence. You can't have your way and know his ways!


PRAYER ALERT

Teach me your ways oh! Lord.

BUILDERS DEVOTIONAL - THE COMMONWEALTH

 BUILDERS DEVOTIONAL DATE: SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 19,2021 TOPIC: THE COMMONWEALTH TEXT: Eph 2:12(NJKV) _that at that time you were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world._  LESSON A believer need not envy the blessing someone else enjoys because we all have equal access to the Father's treasure.  Although we might have different levels of knowledge which is due to growth.  As read in Matthew 6:33 that meditation in Kingdom realities makes it real in our understanding.  The term  _commonwealth_ has its origin traced to the welfare of the public. It has a variety of uses today but the sense of a common benefit still appears in all. There is a commonwealth of Israel which the Jews have explored till date but now the Church has legally been grafted to a greater promise. The deposit of this wealth is in promises and covenants. This is the kingdom welfare provision as stated in the c

BUILDERS DEVOTIONAL - INCUBATING THE FIRE(3)

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 - 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.
