I Believe With Femi Monehin

God's Favourite House Daily Devotional Thursday 18th August 2016

“Jesus told her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Anyone who believes in me will live, even after dying. Everyone who lives in me and believes in me will never ever die. Do you believe this, Martha?”
- John 11:25-26

It is one thing to believe in the Person of Jesus, it is another thing entirely to believe in the Power of Jesus. I have friends [even pastors] that are believers in Christ Jesus, the person of Jesus. But they doubt the Power of God. I say to them and I am saying to you, the Power of God is real. God is saying to you today, beyond believing in My Person, I need you to believe in My Power. It is one thing to believe in who He is. It is another thing entirely to believe in what God can do. Close your eyes and focus on that issue. Jesus is saying, I need you to believe in what I can do. I need you to believe what I am capable of doing.

The truth is that when you believe the person of Jesus, it guarantees your heaven. But it is the Power of Jesus that guarantees your victory here on earth. So you can actually believe in Christ and know God and be fellowshipping and still be suffering defeat. Jesus was saying to Martha, as He is saying to you and I today, there is another side to Jesus the Teacher. There is another side to Jesus the Healer. I am the Resurrection and the Life. I pray that you will come in contact with Christ the Resurrection and the Life, in Jesus Name.

 “Roll the stone aside,” Jesus told them. But Martha, the dead man’s sister, protested,…” John 11:39 [emphasis added]. Martha believed but she protested. God is telling you to move in a certain direction, you believe in Jesus, but you are protesting. Are you a protesting believer? Jesus is saying, to get to that point in your life, I need you to roll away this stone. But you are protesting and saying to Jesus, let us not embarrass ourselves; this thing is beyond repair.

Take note that no matter what it is [your finances, your marriage, your health, or even your business], it is not beyond repair; if you will stop protesting and allow God to be God. The question for you is, what is Jesus trying to do that you are protesting? You have to be open to the supernatural. It is one thing to believe in the supernatural, it is another thing to be open to the supernatural.

Prayer: Lord Jesus, I believe in You and I believe in Your Power and today I open my heart to the supernatural things of God, in Jesus Name.

Can you ruin your destiny?

By
God had something in mind when He created you, right? But what if you’ve screwed up? Dropped out? Quit before it was over? Maybe you decided to do your own thing, it didn’t work out, and now you’re just sucking air and hoping there’s still hope. Guess what? There is! For God’s gifts and his call can never be withdrawn. (Romans 11:29 NLT) You don’t even have to start over. Every single thing you failed at? God will use it. (Romans 8:28) Every shot you called that was way off? God will repurpose it. (Proverbs 19:21) Every weakness you thought you had to hide? God’s power will show through it. (2 Corinthians 12:9) God created you for good works. As soon as you quit the past and sell out for Jesus, those works will happen. (Ephesians 2:10) He’s establishing you, step by step. (Proverbs 16:9) God’s a good Father. He knows how to bring you back and take you further than you ever imagined. (Ephesians 3:20) Spend some time really reflecting on these truths. What do you secretly hope is p...

Marriage Booster: Do You Still Love Her/Him ?

By
Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; Ephesians 5:25 KJV "This is what I love about you" In the beginning you love everything about him. You are captivated by his six pack, his spirit of adventure, and his lion’s heart. In the beginning you love everything about her. You go crazy with the swing of her hips, a wink or a chewy chocolate cake baked especially for you. One day you wake up. Daily routine has shattered your rose-tinted glasses. “His six pack is not so hot anymore, instead his joints creak with every move.” Or: “It would be better if she swung her hips into a gym one of these days.” You realize: “My partner has changed.” Fortunately! He isn’t standing still. The problem is not the change but rather, that you are a creature of habit. It is your task to rediscover your partner and to simultaneously not forget why you went up the aisle with sparkling eyes to marry your bride/groom. MARRIAGE BOOSTER Write d...

Called to Be Peculiar

By
I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. (John 17:15-16) Being peculiar. That's not something most of us work to achieve, is it? But, you know, we should. God has called us to be peculiar—to stand out from the rest of the world as living proof of His power and His love (1 Peter 2:9). He doesn't, for example, want us to share the ailments of the world. He doesn't want us to share their sickness and poverty and failure. He's never wanted that for His people. He gave us a physical illustration of that during the time the nation of Israel was held captive in Egypt. Pharaoh had refused to set the Israelites free, so God had allowed a thick darkness to cover the whole land. The darkness was so dreadful throughout Egypt that no one moved for three days. "But," says Exodus 10:23, "all the children of Israel had light in their ...
