TOPIC: Receive What The Lord Has Provided (TREM Devotional 25 October 2024)
“He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name”. John 1:11-12 (KJV)
Wisdom For The Day MESSAGE:
When you receive Jesus, you are given the power to become the sons of God. To those who received Jesus, He gave the power to receive healing, the power to prosper, and the power to overcome challenges in life. God wants you to rest in His finished works. Stop this doing mode the devil has put you in. What must I do to be blessed? What must I do to prosper? What must I do to live? The result is that when you discover you cannot do it, you get frustrated and walk away defeated.
There is this difficulty in simply accepting that you are blessed. Why is it so difficult for you to accept what has been done? It is simply stretching your hand and taking what has been provided. The book of Matthew 22:1 tells us that many were invited to the wedding of the king’s son. He had prepared his banquet, but they would not come. He sent forth other servants to inform those invited that dinner was ready. But they made light of it and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise. All things were ready, but the guests chose to do something else. They rejected the offer because they had to do something. What they were looking for was on the table. All that was required was for them to come and eat.
According to the king, the wedding is ready, but those invited are unworthy to attend. What made them unworthy? They were unworthy simply because they refused to receive what had been provided for them. The Kingdom provides everything. The guests only had to receive it. That is all the believer is called to do. No toiling! Just sit down and receive. Today, I urge you to receive what the Lord has provided.
