FAITH IN GOD

  In Daniel chapter 6 there is an awesome story of God’s divine intervention. Daniel was a man who possessed a consistent faith.  Daniel is a man who lived this kind of consistent life all the days he lived.  As a young man he was separated!  As a middle aged man, he was sold out!  Even as an older man, he was surrendered!

As a faithful man, Daniel found himself cast into a lion’s den and sentenced to die. Daniel’s problem was that he was faithful to the Lord, and the unbelievers around him hated him for it. If you are going to live for the Lord, some people around you are not going to like you. Those who do not know the Lord will always look for ways to attack those of us who are faithful to Him. 

Daniel simply did what he had always done; he remained faithful to the Lord. This is how Daniel faced the challenge before him, and the choices he made:  He chose obedience to God over opportunities in the world; He chose faithfulness to God over the favor of the king; He chose devotion to God over the decree of the king; He chose bowing before God to bowing before his enemies; He chose a faithful testimony over fleeting treasures; He chose commitment over compromise; He chose faithfulness over freedom; He chose Love over Life; and He chose character over comfort.  Daniel was determined to stand and remain faithful to the Lord regardless of the consequences, knowing that he had no one to please but God.
  
When a person walks faithfully with the Lord in spite of the problems and temptations that surround them, they make a bold statement about where the focus of their life really is.  The believer who possesses a consistent faith does not try to live to please everyone; they just lives to please God. So, let us determine in our hearts that we will do like Daniel and remain faithful to our God!
I affirm that am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.

Theme: The sacred tent

Reference Text:
“The people must make a sacred tent for me, so that may I live among them”
– Exodus 25:8
Reference Hymn:
"Fi okan Mimo, ife Mimo
Igbagbo, Ireti Mimo
Sin Oluwa, Olorun Eleda
Aiye nlo s'opin,
Awon tire si nto lehin larin
Iyemeji laibikita"

"With Holy heart, and with Holy love
Faith and Holy love
Faith and Holy expectations
Worship the Lord
God of creation
The world doth pines O ye brethren
In obedience His followers do abide
Without iota of doubt"- CCC Hymn 527 stanza 2

The need for believers to offer themselves as a living sacrifice was stressed in Paul’s letter to the Romans. Right from the time of Exodus, God has always wanted a vessel (or container) to live in and to carry Him anywhere He wants. In today reading, God gave a definite instruction to the Israelites to make a tent that is sacred, so that He may live among them. God purposely emphasized that it is not an ordinary tent but a sacred one. This is drawing our attention to an issue that if you want Christ to make you his home, you must be sacred. This means that, you must live a separated life, a holy life and a selfless life.

To be sacred is to be pure, blameless and chaste. The best thing a man can experience is when Christ is living in him. It is Christ in a man that guarantees him God’s presence, favour, victory and dominion.  What do you need to do in this critical time? Know that, if the tent is not sacred, God cannot abide in it. One of the ways to be sanctified is through God’s word (John 17:17). Aside from this, you must shun all ungodly influences and jealously keep your garment unspotted. You must also do away with anything that will drive His presence away. May God grant you the enablement to consecrate yourself wholly to Him so that He can live in you in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Prayer Point: Oh Lord, make me a sacred tent so that you can make your home in me in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Theme: No more sickness

Reference Text:
“No one who lives in our land will ever again complain of being ill, and all sins will be forgiven” – Isaiah 33:24

Reference Hymn:
“Iwosan mbe ninu eje odo aguntan
Iwosan mbe ninu eje odo aguntan
Iwosan mbe ninu eje odo aguntan
Ninu eje Jesu”

“There is mighty healing in the blood of the Lamb
There is mighty healing in the blood of the Lamb
There is mighty healing in the blood of the Lamb
Is there in blood of Jesus”-CCC Hymn 487 stanza 2

God’s plan for man is to be in perfect health even as his soul prospers. He never at any point in time wants us to be victim of any sickness whatsoever. This good intention has been made known since the Israelites left the land of Egypt. One of the major significances of Christ’s suffering, prior to his death is that by his stripes we are made whole. Hallelujah!

It is therefore by succinctly believing in the death, and the glorious resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ that positions a man to live above sickness. Halleluyah! This is the condition. In fact, before the death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, God told the Israelites that it is only by abiding by his instruction which is to worship him that they can have access to a perfect health.
Exodus 23:25 (GNB):
“If you worship me, the Lord your God, I will bless you with food and water and take away all you illness”

Do you desire a perfect health? Accept Jesus Christ today with the mind that you have been dead to a life of sin. Another criteria to enjoy perfect health is staying in the land that God has placed you. This is the emphasis of today’s reading. The Israelites were saved in the land of Goshen (where God placed them) when the first born of all creatures in the land of Egypt were killed. May God grant you the grace to abide by this instruction in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Prayer Point: Oh Lord, grant me power over sickness in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Further readings: Matthew 8:5-12, Mark 16:17-18, John 5:1-14
