Foreign Troops Invasion at Your Spirit Border

 


An Emojis Devotional for Thu Feb 24, 2022


Topic: Foreign Troops Invasion at Your Spirit Border


Highlights: 


Our fight is not against people on earth. We are fighting against the rulers and authorities and the powers of this world’s darkness. We are fighting against the spiritual powers of evil in the heavenly places.

Ephesians 6:12 ERV


Why the fight? The spiritual powers of evil want to take over all territories around the world. They need you to join the world darkness coalition - so they fight those who resist. Some are not resisting the call into darkness. They are already joining the troops of evil whether knowingly or unknowingly.


There are billions of porn videos, billions of alcoholic bottles, trillions of dopamine drugs and cocaine, hundreds of millions of weeds, Marijuana and lethal weapon to cause wrecking havoc by the spiritual power of evil in heavenly places. They are the foreign troops with the most calculative move ever known and ever seen.


They are deploying secret agents in men into the porn industries to do porn videos so that uniformed people can watch and get bound in the Spirit. They are called sexual immorality. They have deployed bandits and terrorist and equipped them with drugs and alcoholic substance to destroy lives. The powers of this world's darkness are invading every lives with an assignment which they must obey either consciously or unconsciously. Sometimes there are sanctions from the powers of darkness over many lives to do the damage to the society without option to opt out because there are no options either. 


Some people's conscience have been kidnapped because of power and acquisitions of more power. You think about your life and what battle you are fighting right now. If your assignment in life is for a good cause remember you will also have to fight with the spiritual powers of darkness invading every homes and family.

 

 Already God declared "let there be light" and Jesus was that light. Jesus is the only prominent force that can combat the authorities and the powers of this world’s darkness. He is coming. But His Spirit is around for anyone, any man and woman or children, adult and youth who will call on His name. But you cannot call on Jesus name if His Spirit is not dwelling in you. Giving your life to Christ will help out of the order or the Troops of the enemy. The troop of God will come and take over your territory even when you are sleeping. No human power can fight this war. It is a big war."...Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved—you and your household.” Act 16:31



Prayer: Lord Jesus the soon coming King. I surrender my life to you. Keep me safe from the battles with Spiritual Powers evil through your grace. Amen

Is Saul Among the Prophets?




An Emoji devotions for Sunday Feb 20, 2022


Topic: Is Saul Among the Prophets?


Highlight: When all those who had formerly known him saw him prophesying with the prophets, they asked each other, “What is this that has happened to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?” 1 Samuel 10:11


And he stripped off his clothes also, and prophesied before Samuel in like manner, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Wherefore they say, Is Saul also among the prophets? 1 Samuel 19:24 KJV



.The words, "What is this that is come unto the son of Kish?" seem to tell us that the life hitherto led by Saul was a life very different in all respects to the life led by the sons of the prophets in their schools. It need not be assumed that the youth and early manhood of the future king had been wild and dissolute, but simply that the way of life had been rough and uncultured--a life spent in what we should call "country pursuits," in contradistinction to the pursuit of knowledge and of higher acquirements.


The Spirit of God want to house the body and soul of King Saul but his pursuit of self interest will not allow to put on his best behavior. Because of this attitude, King Saul could not wait to obey God's command in 1 Samuel 10:8


"Go down ahead of me to Gilgal. I will surely come down to you to sacrifice burnt offerings and fellowship offerings, but you must wait seven days until I come to you and tell you what you are to do.”


These seven days were evidently to teach Saul patience and dependence upon God. He waited the seven days, but just barely. As soon as the week was up, he offered the sacrifice on his own, refusing to wait any longer for Samuel. Saul showed a variety of weaknesses that made him unfit to be king, including impatience and self-reliance. His offering showed that he did not want to work together with higher authority because he assumed that his Kingdom would last forever. He was even trying to secure this kingdom by killing David who have been of help to him. 


King Saul later lost his Kingdom and power.


You have done a foolish thing,” Samuel said. “You have not kept the command the LORD your God gave you; if you had, he would have established your kingdom over Israel for all time. 1 Samuel 13:13


DO NOT DO FOOLISH THING BY DISOBEYING GOD. God is greater and His command must be obeyed at all cost.


I may have the gift of prophecy, I may understand all secrets and know everything there is to know, and I may have faith so great that I can move mountains. But even with all this, if I don’t obey God's command, I am nothing.


Prayer: Father God please give me smooth qualities I need to be the man of your heart in Jesus name.

When Jesus Smiles

 An Emoji Devotional for  Sat Feb 19, 2021


Topic: When Jesus Smiles 


Highlights: “No one, sir,” she said. “Then neither do I condemn you,"Jesus declared. “Go now and leave your life of sin.” John 8:11


Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the LORD Almighty. Zechariah 4:6


When you think you have been betrayed and condemned from within and it seems nothing is working again. When the forces of life are dragging you out for your actions calling for judgement on you. This woman was caught in adultery, that man did not wake up early, that boy did not do his homework and that girl is late for school. They brought you out. Satan was saying let us stone her, depression is calling, negative thoughts too did not stop ringing in your heart. Do not be afraid - Jesus is there in Spirit in the midst of your situation. 


Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.

2 Corinthians 3:17 - KJV


Do not conclude it is over because Jesus is smiling at you. All you need is to look up to Jesus and you will realize that all your accusers are gone for good. These are the words of the Holy One, the True One, He who has the key [to the house] of David, He who opens and no one will [be able to] shut, and He who shuts and no one opens: At least there is hope for a tree: If it is cut down, it will sprout again, and its new shoots will not fail.


In the midst of desperation, weakness, depression, Look around for Jesus. He is smiling at you because he will set you free. He will never condemn you. Go and be free and leave your life of sin. 


It is by grace. It is a gift of God. Believe in Jesus today


Prayer: Lord Jesus please plead my cause - Fight my battles for me and smile on me today.

Sanballat

 


An Emojis Devotions for Tue 15th Feb 2022


Topic: Sanballat


Highlights:


When Sanballat heard that we were building the wall of Jerusalem, he was very angry and upset. He started making fun of the Jews.

Nehemiah 4:1 ERV



Someone like Sanballat is making fun of you. They think you cannot amount to something relevant. They look at your shoes and say "what a choo!". To such people, you do not have importance because they know your background and believe in their mind that nothing good can come out from your Nazareth. But that is not the truth!


The truth is that your life is not written by those Sanballat folks. Your life is written by God who made heaven and earth. That is why God sent Jesus to change people's stories. In John 5:5 There was a man who was sick for 38 years but on the day he met Jesus, He was healed and his story changed. Jesus raised the dead Lazarus in John 11 and He said in verse 25 that The one who believes in me will live, even though they die;


It is a mystery. This is what salvation is all about. Jesus is the power gate to hope of transformations and recovery (Colossians 1:27) He is gateway to second chance in life and He is the one who give an unimaginable recovery to people to people whose hope are dead. Matthew 8:2-3


Without Jesus there is no opportunity for a leper to be made whole. Jesus is the miracle you have been looking for. You must have a relationship with him by reading your Bible, listening to messages, reading life giving devotional and stories. If you don't know Jesus before, you should close your eyes and open your mind and call him Into your life. "Lord Jesus come into my heart and save my soul".


Don't look at the Sanballat making fun of you. Jerusalem was built and the Temple was restored. Israel will remain Today and forevermore and no Sanballat can stop it. Admit to Jesus today and that is the way. 


God bless you as you look on to Jesus today


Prayer: Lord Jesus you are mystery of hope. Please come into my life and save me and perform your life changing miracles in my life today. Amen.

Love the Lord – flee embroilment with the world



An Emoji Devotional for Sat, Feb 12 2022

Topic: Love the Lord – flee embroilment with the world

by Hans Ulrich Wenger

Highlights:

One of you routs a thousand, because the Lord your God fights for you, just as he promised. So be very careful to love the Lord your God. (Joshua 23:10-11)

Jesus replied, ‘Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me. (John 14:23-24)

Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father [or the Father’s love] is not in them. For everything in the world – the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life – comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives for ever. (1 John 2:15-17)

Joshua led the Israelites into the promised land after the death of Moses. In Chapter 23 he is an old man and feels that he will soon die. For a last time he gathers the officials of the tribes around him and confronts them with the blessings the Lord has promised to the people for following his commandments and with the fate they will endure if they intermingle with the Canaanite people and depart from the Lord’s commandments. “But if you turn away and ally yourselves with the survivors of these nations that remain among you and if you intermarry with them and associate with them, then you may be sure that the Lord your God will no longer drive out these nations before you. Instead, they will become snares and traps for you, whips on your backs and thorns in your eyes, until you perish from this good land, which the Lord your God has given you.” (Joshua 23:12-13) Considering the history of the Israelites the word gives me the shivers. With our eyes we have seen how the people of Israel have literally perished from their good land and the remnant had to live and to be persecuted among the nations for about 2000 years. The prophets of the Lord, however, announced that the Lord would have mercy on them and would bring them back into their land. Today Israel is one of the eight leading nations in the world and all the prerequisites for the Lord’s predictions for the last days of the world as we know it are fulfilled.

Loving God is not an emotional movement in the first place, but for the most part an act of obedience. Whoever turns to the Lord and accepts his rule, love, goodness and acceptance will, however grow into a deep love relationship with him that surpasses all other relationships. He is the rock on which faith and trust are deeply and unfailingly rooted. To obey his teachings for them is not a burden. They want to learn from him, because he is wise, gentle and humble in heart and he provides peace and rest for their soul. They try, they fail, and they know and feel that he accepts them anyway. His goodness, his grace and mercy and his love gives them a home that cannot be found anywhere else. 


Nevertheless the New Testament followers of Christ are tempted in the same way as the Israelites of old. The world offers much that is attractive to our senses, to our design of life and to our ego. Whoever tries to combine a little world and a little Jesus, will experience shipwreck. It does not go together. The love of the worldly things gives us only short time excitement and in the best case a short lived counterfeit of glory. Nothing really satisfies, but requires constant repetition. We have to make a decision. Following Jesus leads into the glory of God and into eternal satisfaction. The world leads us away from God into the wastelands of eternal horror and pain.

Jesus invites everybody to follow him and he accepts everyone who comes to him. We decide what we are sowing and with this decision we seal what we will be reaping. For closing let’s listen to Jesus’ own words: “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. (John 3:16-18)

Brothers and Sisters let us love the Lord, for he loves us beyond our understanding long before we even think of loving him.

Prayer: Dear Heavenly Father, dear Jesus, thank you for your love for me. Thank you that you know everything about me, even my evil thoughts and deeds. I am overwhelmed that you love me anyway with your goodness, your grace and your mercy. Let me always stay in your presence and make me immune for the temptations of Satan’s world. You, and you alone I will follow and love with all my heart, with all my mind and with all my soul. I am yours and thank you that you are mine. Amen.

Glory to God – our responsibility

 


An Emoji Devotions for Fri, Feb 11 2022


Topic: Glory to God – our responsibility


Highlights: 

Not to us, Lord, not to us but to your name be the glory, because of your love and faithfulness. Why do the nations say, ‘Where is their God?’ Our God is in heaven; he does whatever pleases him. (Psalm 115:1-3)


May you be blessed by the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. The highest heavens belong to the Lord, but the earth he has given to the human race. It is not the dead who praise the Lord, those who go down to the place of silence; it is we who extol the Lord, both now and for evermore. Praise the Lord, Hallelujah! (Psalm 115:15-18)


Praise the Lord, my soul; all my inmost being, praise his holy name. Praise the Lord, my soul, and forget not all his benefits – who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.


From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked. (Luke 12:48b)


When we read through the Old Testament we are reminded to praise and glorify the Lord time and again. Nevertheless as we arrive in the last chapter of it, we hear the God fearing people complain and speaking harshly against God. ‘You have spoken arrogantly against me,’ says the Lord. ‘Yet you ask, “What have we said against you?” ‘You have said, “It is futile to serve God. What do we gain by carrying out his requirements and going about like mourners before the Lord Almighty? But now we call the arrogant blessed. Certainly evildoers prosper, and even when they put God to the test, they get away with it.”’ (Malachi 3:13 -15) What happened? The asking of the nations mentioned in Psalm 115 got so strong that the God fearing people began to get in tune with the evil song. God got degraded to a weak “quantity negligible” and human power and achievement were praised. They forgot to praise the Lord, which is the foremost task of his followers. With the neglecting of glorifying God they lost their joy and inner balance and slowly but surely, following God grew to a mournful and futile burden. It is not enough to preserve the scriptures and to adhere to what the Lord has done in the past, although this is the basis for our living with God in the here and now. We are responsible to praise the Lord for his past deeds and for what we are experiencing with him in the present. By diving into his goodness and love we will be renewed daily in our living hope for the glory to come, in which he grants us a place on his side. “Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will – to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves.” (Ephesians 1:3-6) He has bequeathed us with his whole inheritance. Is this not enough to publicly sing his praises?


His handiwork, the heavens and the earth, his whole creation worships and praises him, but Psalm 115 reminds us that it is we, who are responsible to extol him. He has given us not only much, but literally everything.  He has a right to expect thankfulness and praise from us. Dear Brother, dear Sister, let us stop complaining about hardships and let us fill our environment with glorifying him and singing his praises, no matter what! 


Prayer:  Dear Lord God, dear Lord Jesus, I repent from my being gloomy instead of giving you thanks and praise for all you have done for me and for all you are presently doing for me on a daily bases. I want to open my mouth and fill my life and the lives from the people around me with your praise and glory. I am weak, but you are strong. Fill me with your spirit so that my life will glorify you in the mighty power of your wonderful goodness, your mercy and your strength. Amen.
