The Light of Jesus

 


Emoji Devotional for Sat 19th October, 2024


Topic: The Light Of Jesus

Highlight:

John 12:45-46 FBV
When you see me, you're seeing the one who sent me. I have come as a light shining into the world, so if you trust in me you won't remain in the dark.
Touch our body to look and see you O Lord! You may be born again or enlightened in The Spirit. When you reach a level where Jesus light shines on your body and you are being recognised by people around you as born-again Christian, then your body is in good order. And if people points at you and say, He/she is an among idol worshippers or unbeliever or a drunkard then how bad is your light.

Matthew 6:22-23 FBV

The eye is like a lamp that lights the body. So if your eye is healthy, then your whole body will have light. But if your eye is evil, then your whole body will be in the dark. If the ‘light’ you have is actually darkness, how dark is that!

When you are dressed up and you appear to someone who have not known or met you before; Whatever you look like and whatever comes out of your mouth is how you will be addressed. Your body is your city and your voice is your address in the Spirit.



Prayer: Lord Jesus point us to you and let your light of recognition shine on our spirit and soul always on Jesus name. Amen

TIME

 


An Emoji Devotional for Today, 12th October, 2024


Topic: Time

Highlight: Your throne was established long ago; you are from all eternity. Psalms 93:2

Life of humans are time bound. It's ages and it gets older with time. Time is the master of human life. God cannot be bound by time. He can go back in time and also go ahead of time. Someone who think deep about God wrote Psalms 90:2 that"Before the mountains were born or you brought forth the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God."

Time is under the power of God is to control and refresh his memories of human race and dispensation. In Job 14:5 Job 14:5 CEVDCI Version says "Our time on earth is brief; the number of our days is already decided by you." This means God has already decided our future. So when you are living time remember Job 33:14-15, 17-20

"God speaks in different ways, and we don't always recognize his voice.  Sometimes in the night, he uses terrifying dreams God does this to make us turn from sin and pride and to protect us from being swept away to the world of the dead. Sometimes we are punished with a serious illness and aching joints. Merely the thought of our favorite food makes our stomachs sick".


Even right now we are in time and our time is decided by God alone.

When you are facing any challenges in life, the first is to seek God's face about it and beg him for mercy and intervention. Only God has seen the future before us and whatever he decides is our fate.

There was a man in Bible who changed his fate when He was told that he should prepare to die. He faced the wall and prayed that God would change His mind. And He got mercy to live for fifteen more years. In Isaiah 38:1-5, We learned that Hezekiah prayed and this has always been what Jesus has been crying loud all His days that we should Watch and Pray Matthew 26:41, so we will not enter into temptation of thinking that anything is beyond God's control.

DON'T CUT YOUR TICKET TO HEAVEN OR YOU WILL NEVER GET HOME.

 


AN Emoji Devotional for Tue 30 July 2024


Topic: DON'T CUT YOUR TICKET TO HEAVEN OR YOU WILL NEVER GET HOME.

Highlight:

"But he will reply, ‘I don’t know you or where you come from. Away from me, all you evildoers!" Luke 13:27

Everyone is looking for the light. The light is a place of recognition where everyone can see what each and every others are doing and they are comfortable about the transparencies of doings. The eye sees the light from the mind. "...If your eyes are good, your whole body will be full of light." MATTHEW 6:22

Something there is Interpreting the vision we see. We should be thankful for what we have and be okay we with because some do not have it. People mostly fall into situation where they don't know what to be thankful for because they can't interpret the right from the wrong. Luke 5:39 says "And no one after drinking old wine wants the new, for they say, ‘The old is better.’"

If you are thankful for what you have and are contended with it, you may possibly be acting like someone with a good eyes. Only those who are thankful for what they have will not complain of what they do not have, and those who don't complain but are thankful are healthy.

When our minds are corrupted within us, we will see blessings as curse, while you see blessings as curse, you can never be blessed because only those who see blessings will go for blessing and will get blessing. You cannot receive what you did not see.

Your ticket to heaven is the spiritual eye that you use to see. If you see blessing you will be blessed and if you see curse you will be cursed. Read your Bible to learn how to see. JOHN 3: 27 ..."A person can receive only what is given them from heaven". And I say; 'How will you receive what is given unless you see it coming?".

Don't see curse. See blessing. What does Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”

Do not cut your ticket to heaven. Be Born again.

Prayer: Almighty terbabacle built by God for all goodness. I run to thee, to seek the face of God who sits on the Throne. Who lives forever and ever. Bless my eyes. Let me see you coming. In Jesus name. Amen.

EVEN if God did not say a word; Keep trusting Him

 


An Emoji Devotional for Mon 15th July 2024


Topic: EVEN if God did not say a word; Keep trusting Him

Highlight:

I've commanded you to be strong and brave. Don't ever be afraid or discouraged! I am the Lord your God, and I will be there to help you wherever you go.  Joshua 1:9

I have heard people telling others "don't worry I will be there for you". Most especially between male and female but somehow along the line some unexpected event took place and afterwards one is disappointed.  God is the only one who does not disappoint people who trust Him. The trust relationship between us and God must be understood that if help has not arrived does not mean that help is not coming.

In Joshua 7; Israel was defeated by the inhabitants of the city of Ai, and it was revealed that the reason for the defeat was because one of the Israelites has sinned and kept some of the “devoted things” from Jericho which God forbade.  Sometimes it is obedience and sometimes it is patience. sacrifice by himself (1 Samuel 13:9). Because Saul refuses to listen to God, Samuel says he has forfeited the hope of an eternal dynasty in Israel (1 Samuel 13:13).

And often times God himself may make us go through certain things because His will must be done. Example was Jesus praying that "if" there is a possible way to avoid the cross, that He might avoid it. Critically, though, Jesus immediately binds His request to submission. In virtually the same breath as He makes His appeal, He resolves to obey the will of the Father. Matthew 26:39

The summary of the whole is the God does not sleep nor slumber neither does He gets tired or run out of option or supplies. All He wants is your understanding of the "trust" relationship that you will receive the best from him provided you stay with Him as He is with you.

Do you really want to stay with God? Do you really want to understand God. You must continue to be having undying faith in God. EVEN if God did not say a word; Keep trusting Him

"Jesus did not say a word. But the woman kept following along and shouting, so his disciples came up and asked him to send her away." Matthew 15:23

This is the kind of trust that God is looking from you.

God is Spirit, and those who worship God must be led by the Spirit to worship him according to the truth. Keep trusting him, do not leave him hands off you. Keep trusting, praying on what you trust and know God for. He is indeed a good God. He will never discouraged you.

Prayer: Father what I can fathom is pure love in you. Please let your love stay with me forever in Jesus name I pray. AMEN

How will I fight Back?

 


An Emoji Devotional for Fri 12 July 2024


Topic: How will I fight Back?

Highlight:
The Holy Spirit led Jesus into the desert, so that the devil could test him.  Matthew 4:1

You cannot believe this. I tell you that most fights were to be fought in the wilderness. It was the wilderness that all the stories of Jesus's ministry scripted from beginning to the end. God forbid, If Jesus had failed that test, you and I would not have been saved Christians by now.

What surprised me is that it was the Holy Spirit who led Jesus into that desert so the devil could test him. Why desert? Why not to the temple or to the sea shore? What did the Holy Spirit want Jesus do? To fight back, you have to been led by the Spirit.

Did Jesus christ went to fight the devil? No, because he went on for forty days without food. This mean the devil was also in the same desert. The devil might have even fasted for some days which I cannot specify but they both went to the desert because an event is about to happen that will change the history of humanity forever.

The devil knows what is at stake so he took the risk to be audacious but he is never confident enough and incoherent in his chats  because the presence of Jesus is greater to make the devil insane and incoherent for the rest of his career.  The devil's first words is no Greetings or exchange of pleasantries. That was the first time the devil was afraid to speak. He could see the twelves battle ready Armies of angels watching him to say something against the plan and they could finish him.

Matthew 26:53 "Don't you know that I could ask my Father, and he would at once send me more than twelve armies of angels?"

The way Jesus answered the devil is like someone who already defined a contest as a winner vs loser.

Jesus answered, “The Scriptures say: ‘No one can live only on food. People need every word that God has spoken.’ ”
The angels are there asking the devil is that all you got? The devil tried and tried but he could not even stand the wisdom of God let alone stand a chance to be coherent in all his word.  Without mincing words it's likely that the devil fell off hitting his head on a stone and rolled down the cliff.


"In heaven the Lord laughs as he sits on his throne, making fun of the nations." Psalms 2:4

‭This made the dragon terribly angry with the woman. So it started a war against the rest of her children. They are the people who obey God and are faithful to what Jesus did and taught. The dragon stood on the beach beside the sea. (Revelation 12:17-18)

So how you fight back? Be lead by the Holy Spirit and be loaded with wisdom of God's word. Watch and pray. Matthew 26:41, Ephesians 6:13

Prayer: Lord Jesus I ask that you grant me grace to use your wisdom and my wisdom from now on. In Jesus name. Amen

Beautiful Name of Jesus that Gives you Upper hand over ghosts, psychics and Witchcraft attacks

 


An Emoji Devotional for Thu 4 July, 2024


Topic: Beautiful Name of Jesus that Gives you Upper hand over ghosts, psychics and Witchcraft attacks

Highlight:

‭that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
Philippians 2:10 KJV‬

‭For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
Philippians 2:13 KJV‬

‭Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, And they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
Matthew 1:23 KJV‬

The organic name of Jesus is 'Emmanuel' which means 'God with us'. What this name does is to destabilise and make the psychic powers lose their grips on you. If you have ever been followed by unseen spirits or feeling some sensation in your body which looks like you are under attack.  You will need to be calling "Emmanuel Emmanuel in the name of Jesus" which is interpreted "God with us, God with us, in Jesus name". Then this also means you have ask Jesus to deliver you on His own. If you read my previous Devotions (Emoji Devotional) you will see when I told you that if you want to be saved, all you have do is to believe in Jesus according to Act 16:31. Quickly you have to give your life to Jesus as your GOD and change your sinful bad habits. Yes! Those spiritual and physical things you do that give power to demons and ghosts or psychics and witches to attack you must be surrendered to Jesus. Go read Galatians 5 vs 19 to the end. Jesus must be a God and Savior to yo. Which means Jesus christ has come as God of the new covenant. So No more old covenant names of God again except Emmanueland Jesus in your life. There are other names of Jesus which are living stone, master, author and finisher of faith, lamb of God.  Philippians 2:9 said it all and yours truly this is the remaining thing for all Christians, Pastors, believer, even Isreali to believe which I agree that will make the heaven to open for the rapture.

‭John 12:24 KJV‬
Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit"

So those other believe that there is another thing higher than Jesus name must go off totally from your mind. Now that you have Emmanuel and Jesus name. I assure you that all the ghost of this world combination with witches and devil himself will just be wasting their time if they try to do you any wrong. That was why no demon could withstood Jesus in His time on earth because He carried the highest of highest of God's exalted name and Presence.

Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: Philippians 2:9 KJV‬

Then you will have to switch from Jehovah. Yahweh and El to Emmanuel and Jesus alone. It is not that other names of God will not answer you but you may still be under attack of those demons even while you are praying with other names. But no demon can dare "EMMANUEL the Living Stone In Jesus name". Hahaha! The global Unified name of Jesus. For mighty powers Read Matthew 21:44 okay let me show you how powerful it is.

And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.

The sweetest thing about the name is that the Psychics, ghost, demons, sorceress and witches can use other names of God in their works but they can't use any name associated with Jesus in their coven most especially the name Emmanuel and Jesus and the Living Stone.

This was the parable of the little stone in that it destroyed Goliath and has become today's spiritual GUN for any Child of God to use to fight.  Other names may act as swords and Javelin but "Emmanuel in Jesus name" is a one billion years technology that the devil will never recover from on earth.

It will not work for anyone who has not surrender their selves to Jesus as their GOD and Savior according to LUKE 1:47. Jesus Christ is God and SAVIOR.

If God highly exalted Jesus name above every other name what does that mean He wants from all? Is it not that we all should bow to Jesus as your God?

Philippians 2:10-11 KJV‬
that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;  and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
In old testament. God is referred to as LORD GOD. Psalms 91:2 ‭says
"I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: My God; in him will I trust."

That is only when you will experience all the powers of deliverance embedded in Jesus.

This is not an argument.  It is a revelation of what was written in the Bible. Jesus is the God that was exalted above all. This truth will shelter you from strongest all all spiritual beast no matter how know you think about it.

Prayer: Emmanuel, Blood of Jesus, Emmanuel, Living Stone, Emmanuel in Jesus name. Holy,Holy, Holy. AMEN.

How to Smell Jesus (throwback)

 


An Emoji Devotions for Wed 3, July 2022



Topic: How to Smell Jesus


Highlight: 


Won't God protect his chosen ones who pray to him day and night? Won't he be concerned for them? He will surely hurry and help them. But when the Son of Man comes, will he find on this earth anyone with faith? Luke 18:7‭-‬8


Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, was told by the crowd to be quiet. In their opinion, he did not deserve to have Jesus listen to him. Bartimaeus refused to be quiet and shouted all the louder as he wanted to meet Jesus. Jesus on hearing his insistence called him over and asked him what he wanted. (Mark 10:46-52)


You should persist you want to see Jesus. Instead of saying "Give me today our daily bread." You might want to say....


"Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. I want to see Jesus for urgent assistance"

You have changed the daily bread request to wanting to see Jesus for an urgent assistance. 


Jesus said "I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty." John 6:35


The aroma of fresh bread is so good that it is so irresistible. Without needing a map, You cannot miss your way to a bakery when fresh bread are placed in the oven. The pleasant aroma will lead you to the bakery near you once bread is on fire. 


Certainly, Jesus is the bread of life and you can smell him where ever he is, around you. 


How to smell Jesus "The bread of life"?


It is that lovely feeling that happens to when you begin to aspire in good faith that things is beginning to change for good and tomorrow will be just fine hopefully; then Jesus is smelling in the air.  


In Colossians 1:27 ERV the Bible says "God decided to let his people know just how rich and glorious that truth is. That secret truth, which is for all people, is that Christ lives in you, his people. He is our hope for glory."


The glory may be away, but it's perceived as if it's already happening because Christ the bread of life is smelling around.


It is sweet when you perceive Jesus and trace your way to him as fresh bread is perceived and bakery location found. Because if you genuinely find Jesus and take a bite of him. It will be Sweeter when Jesus is perceived through you.

There is this courage and confidence that your life is already made and glory is on its way. The good side of it is that no one will be able to sway you once you take a bite of Jesus.


How to perceive those who have taken a bite of the "bread of life"?


Acts 4:13 AMPC says something it


"Now when they saw the boldness and unfettered eloquence of Peter and John and perceived that they were unlearned and untrained in the schools [common men with no educational advantages], they marveled; and they recognized that they had been with Jesus."


The aroma of Jesus is in His Spirit. For God did not give us a spirit of timidity (of cowardice, of craven and cringing and fawning fear), but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of calm and well-balanced mind and discipline and self-control. 2 Timothy 1:7 AMPC

Where is your power, love and well balanced mind? 


Do you know that you can bring the aroma of Jesus into any situation. How would you do that? It is by having faith in God.


The Bible says that "Without faith, it is impossible to please and be satisfactory to God. Which means no one can take a bite of the bread of life if they don't believe in God. It faith that produce the hope that give life.


That is why all the men of faith like Joseph, David, Joshua, Daniel, etc in the Bible were very successful. If you have the opportunity to have that good feeling of perceiving Jesus in your life, do not ignore that feeling. Salvation is near!


Prayer: Jesus you are here and it feels like I'm in heaven on earth. Keep me conscious in your presence forever and ever. Amen
